Yes, I was planning on making it an option, so people can see it the way they want. Soon...

I am liking it! 

One question would it make more sense on the reward page to flip them?  Show newest block first?

V2 is live! 

Let me know if you find anything that is not working.

I am going through things, and I think I have most of the transition issue solved.

I am planning on moving the hashing graphs to the dashboard.
They will be smaller with less detail and a shorter timespan, but you will be able to click on them (or link nearby) to go to a full size same as it is now.

Also planning on making the hashgraph for the overall pool on the main page load faster.

I like this graphic, much easier

I can only image the length of your todo list. I know mine is very long if you include my job and my wife's list for me. 

Here is a teaser screen shot for those interested in V2 of the monitor. 
Let me know what other "gauges" or information I should try to show.
I plan on getting current block and network difficulty on there.

There's an item on my todo list to add a value to the API call "usercode" as a hex version of the username and show that on the web page.
But it will continue to support both
Sooner or later I need to get the main pool to properly support UTF-8
(it works at home but not on the live pool - basically just a postgresql or apache setting I got wrong somewhere )

Are you saying that I need to make sure that my script can safely process usernames that could have a space in the middle of them? I guess I'll implement that either way, but having usernames with spaces just seems silly.  
I had just set it to strip spaces for now, but I will now just trim them from the ends and I will have to add a % (I assume) if there is a space in the middle so the api will still work?

It is fun hitting these little things and thinking wow I didn't see that one coming , then you have to find the solution.  

There's allowed to be a space in the username (but they get stripped off the front and end)
I of course never disallowed that, but also never had one before until recently when one of my scripts failed to work processing a payout at home

Anyone that signed up after 2015-01-14 may have not gotten the last block notification and will be missing hashrate on their graph from 12:20 pm EST to 7:52 pm EST.   

A user accidentally had a space after their username and the process that runs to get all the data was dieing at that point. 
I believe I have fixed this so it won't happen again. 

Until the next unforeseen issue arises things are working again. 

That did it.  Thanks!

I'll get the block on there soon.

Yeah, it sees the number of characters in your hashrate and bumps it up to PH/s.
I rolled the number down 1, Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks again for all of your hard work that you have done to help us fully understand Kano.is!

1) What block number? Yes, the current one.

Here is what I am seeing on mine (I did sign out and then sign back in, trying to reset it):

our Rate: 0.13 PH/s
Workers: 27
Pool Rate: 15.07 PH/s
Your %: 0.8863


Thanks Again!

Additions:

1) What block number? Last one found by pool (that is shown) last one found by network? or the current on being worked on? I assume current one because you mentioned difficulty, but I'm curious as to what the value of know the current block number is? I understand showing the difficulty. I will add them soon, I'm working on some very big changes, probably within the next few weeks.

2) I'm not sure about this one. Kano's answer when it was asked of him: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=789369.msg13211604;topicseen#msg13211604

The 5Nd is referring to what shares are paid for with each block find. There is no "ramping up" or "reduced payout" or whatever other terminology people are using. Your payout is based on the shares you submit. The amount of shares paid by the pool are 5 times the network difficulty (5Nd).

The reason it is mentioned so much is because new people jump on the pool and wait for their first payment. We hit a block and they see their payment and think wow that sucks I got way less than I did at pool X, I'm leaving. What they don't realize is that they will most likely keep getting paid for those shares on the next several blocks. Add all those payments up and most likely they got paid better than PPS for the time they spent on the pool. The "ramping up" that everyone talks about is the smaller payouts getting bigger until you have been mining on the pool for long enough that your 5Nd average has reached your hashrate. Keep in mind that if you stop mining with the pool you will keep getting paid until all of your shares are outside the 5Nd window.

For anyone looking for more on the topic here is my previous examples of the 5Nd:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13540177
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13198117

The thing that everyone should do is tell new people to watch their shift page on Kano.is and when there is no 0 in the Hs column above the red line then the next block we hit should be full payout.

With all of that being said, I will look into somehow showing something related to the 5Nd.  

Modifications:

1) I'll look into that, it does show as TH/s on mine. It should be dynamic, but maybe I have a decimal place issue.

Zach,

Great job on this monitor!  I do have a few additions and modifications if you are able.

Adds:

1) Put the Block Number and Block Difficulty on the header.
2) Bitminter has a feature that lets you know where you are in the 5Nd under Statistics-Live Stats full size-Latest Shifts.
This feature would help out new people to see where they are in getting to 5Nd and also people that may have a miner go offline.

Modifications:

1) Change PH/s on Your Rate to TH/s.  Most of us are just TH/s


All of these are just recommendations to an already Great Monitor and are not needed.  Thanks for all that you do.

I had chicken last night. I guess I'll have some more today! 

I just had a chicken "Dagwood" sandwich!  Maybe that will help!

Edit:

Man missing "found another block" email, are we eating enough chickens?

I'm working on that. Yes all of the "Local Time" and graphs, block find times etc. are EST right now.
Planning on switching everything over to UTC while giving each user to option to display it in their timezone if they want.

When I said what you quoted I was talking to clgrissom3 who is also in EST timezone.

mmmm
local time say it is 19.24h, (graph and banner on top webpage), but it is 01.24h  here .

UTC is 00.24h

I think it showing local time of your server, not the local time in the computer client.

It is the decimal proportion. 
I fixed it so it is now percent.
