always the student, never the master.
And of course .2BTC for anyone who fixes the bugs and gets VGB To work right.   And maybe you can skew the random reward in favor of the smaller miners if that's possible.  Don't make it ridiculous just like a 30% margin of favor.

Do you have any idea as to what probability is? Dead serious question. There is no way to make smaller miners benefit with a dumbass superblock system.

what the fuck you can't just make the block rewards cease after 7 years!! thats ridiculous

lol where have you been

hadn't even looked at the source yet, much less the block rewards. I'm busy monitoring NAN and doing chart analysis on cryptsy. i can't be bothered for this at the moment.

I'm no coder and I probably have no idea what I'm doing (is this C?), but there's my proposed fix. I cannot promise if it's at all right, but I'd love 0.2BTC!!

Much obliged.

I believe that still allows superblocks to be created in the first 250 blocks. I'm a noob, but I would do something like this.


int64 static GetBlockValue(int nHeight, int64 nFees, uint256 prevHash)
{
      int64 nSubsidy = 0 * COIN;

      if(nHeight == 1)  
         nSubsidy = 1100000 * COIN; //.5% Public Wallet Premine

         nSubsidy = 1100000 * COIN; //.5% Coin Owner Premine

      else if(nHeight < 250)
         nSubsidy = 0 * COIN;   //No  Coins awarded for the first 250 blocks (fair launch)

         nSubsidy = 49 * COIN;   //Standard 49 Coin Reward  
  
      std::string cseed_str = prevHash.ToString().substr(8,7);
      const char* cseed = cseed_str.c_str();

         nSubsidy = 10045 * COIN;  //The VGB Protocol Random 250x Block Award
      }

      if(nHeight > 14726880) // no block reward after 7 years
                  nSubsidy = 0;

    return nSubsidy + nFees;
}

If a programmer can confirm this is a VGB fix the .2 BTC IS yours, bro.

Just wondering.  Are you currently looking into ideas that will make this coin a long term coin, and not one that kills itself in 6-7 years?

Vlad, you need to calm the heck down, buddy.  

My rig is pointed to your coin right now, as are several others, I'm sure.  

r3wt is trying to help you, but you keep going off on people here.  

Next time you read a post that upsets you, just smile and remind yourself of all of the things in life that make you happy, and then either respond in a positive manner or just ignore it.  You seem super stressed about this coin.  


Thanks for the friendly advice, "The Dude".  

See, if people talked like you I would be really cool about all this.

Now I promised R3 I'd bail so I will.  But this thread stays open.

What we have here is growing pains combined with a few assholes and one neurotic easily stressed bigger asshole and that's no reason to close a thread and open one for Mr. Rogers.

Lets just start the next page with a different attitude and to see if the problem is me I'll step away and if r3 needs me for some thing he's got my cellphone number.

As for the bounties, since I've been here I've seen real programmers take on serious tasks for lame 200,000 devcoins.  It was peanuts so naturally I thought .2 BTC was a good amount.  And if I pay to help get a pool off the ground of course i want half.

I gave away my 2.2 million coins to r3 to use to bounties how exactly am I suppose to make money off a coin I paid to launch.  It's this kind of BS that pisses me off.

Anyway, enjoy the thread without me and lets see if it goes any better.  Later:  the Dude!

Good now we can get something done

What are you talking about?   He is posting in the forums telling you to stop posting and digging yourselves deeper into a ditch.  

BTW a bounty is supposed to encourage people to build a pool for your coin.  Not to give you a 50% share in the pool because you paid $20.  

And you are calling $20 (hefty fee) alot of money for someone to sit and re-program your coin for a few hours??? You do realize that is charity pricing.  But you have an actual programmer (Who should be changing you 0.5 BTC per hour minimum) that is partnered up with you.  He is online, and working on damage control instead of your coin atm.  Lol, I thought you apologized last night and agreed to come out with a business face today.  

My business advice for today.  Do NOT poke the bear.  You need IGotSpots more then you realize.  He can kill your coin all by himself just by playing the difficulty ramp-ups r3wt isn't going to spend his entire day/life undigging you from the ditch you keep trying to dig.  IGotSpots doesn't need you for anything though.  So just grin and smile no matter what he says.  

Also you're to impatient.  I think you have this strange feeling everyone here is unemployed and their career is making coins for $20 a piece.  LOL.  Everyone sleeps, and probably everyone has a day job.  Just because you don't see something going on every hour doesn't mean you need to freak out and start going around him, or he won't be around for you much longer.  And you do realize without him here for you, that every time IGotSPots decides to push the difficulty too high, it will cost you a 0.2 BTC bounty to have someone go in and fix it the problem.

Why is everyone calling it a protocol? Is there something I missed that is worthy of being called a protocol?

Try looking up protocol in the dictionary then ask again.


Edit:

I'll help you:


Protocol:  a procedure or a code for a procedure.  The golden blocks are both.

Vlad as your partner, i remove speaking duties from you at this time. lock this thread and i'll start a new one and i'll handle it. you're digging us deeper man.

You were nowhere to be seen.  I had to do something.

IGot spots does nothing but bitch.

I put up 2 nice bounties and nothing but bitching.  If you had been here handling things I would have loved to stay out of it. You think I like to throw money a away at a coin I already paid once to be programmed right?

Fine, I'll step off and I'll give you the bounties to start a pool for us and to fix the VGB error.

But I'm not closing this thread.  It's got a nice count. And I'm not gonna get booted off someone else's thread just for speaking my mind.

Besides people need to see how far this coin has come and how tough it it was if it does make it.

But if you're here I have no problem ignoring with that mindless idiot iGot Spots.  He's single handedly agitating everyone.  Can't you see that?

I'm out.  Good luck.  I'll PM you my cellphone number, r3, if you do need anything from me.

If it indeed survived the night (looks like it did).  Vlad and team, the first thing you should be developing is a Mining Pool.  Gets more people onboard to mine easier, and you can actually take a 1% cut, and people won't be offended.

Also, I don't know if it's to late to change the coin to a PoS coin??  Or make some major changes to it.  But I don't understand why this is to be considered a longterm coin when it's designed to suicide in 7 years.  I don't know if alot of people will put time/money into a coin knowing they have to be out of it within 6 years, or risk losing everything.  PoS could save it.  And you could market it as an eCoin (environmentally friendly coin) since power to maintain the coin will drop to almost nothing once the coin goes into PoS mode.  
 

Per the programmer can't do a PoS coin as the VGB protocol won't work with PoS.

I'll throw in another .2 BTC for anyone who helps me start a pool.  this pool would have to me half mine since i'm paying for it.  And half to whoever starts it, of course.

And of course .2BTC for anyone who fixes the bugs and gets VGB To work right.   And maybe you can skew the random reward in favor of the smaller miners if that's possible.  Don't make it ridiculous just like a 30% margin of favor.

It's gonna be a great coin when you have 20 people that have like 10 mHash total put together mining your coin since you keep trying to discriminate those of us keeping this abomination alive

It's so bad lol it doesn't even have a working "protocol" which was the main difference and selling point of this piece of shit. VGB will change the way mining is done...oh wait, it doesn't do anything


A). Does anything positive or constructive ever come out of your mouth?

B). I PAID for the inclusion of VGB so obviously the programmer made an error.

C). Even though its not may fault I just put up a pretty hefty fee (bounty), one which is big enough to launch a new coin to fix the problem.

D) But like usual, you ignore such things so you can keep shitting yourself.

C) And you think a 30% margin of favor for the small guy is gonna leave you in the poor house with your $40,000 rig?  On top of being a nag you're a bit greedy and selfish as well.  


You know you don't have to be the way you are.  It's called character flaws and they can be changed with jut a bit of effort.

A) Yes, but not for people who don't deserve compliments
 
B) That should teach your stupid ass to pay for something you can't check yourself

C) Why bother?

D) Ok, I'll just spike your difficulty myself then and put an end to this

E) E comes after D, not C

I'm not even going to bother arguing with someone who messes up the first 5 letters of the alphabet. I'll silently just spike the difficulty everytime it gets to a reasonable return from mining. I'll show you what big miners can do when you talk shit to us while we try to save your piece of shit

Also, I don't know if it's to late to change the coin to a PoS coin??  Or make some major changes to it.  But I don't understand why this is to be considered a longterm coin when it's designed to suicide in 7 years.  I don't know if alot of people will put time/money into a coin knowing they have to be out of it within 6 years, or risk losing everything.  PoS could save it.  And you could market it as an eCoin (environmentally friendly coin) since power to maintain the coin will drop to almost nothing once the coin goes into PoS mode.  
 

Per the programmer can't do a PoS coin as the VGB protocol won't work with PoS.

I'll throw in another .2 BTC for anyone who helps me start a pool.  this pool would have to me half mine since i'm paying for it.  And half to whoever starts it, of course.

And of course .2BTC for anyone who fixes the bugs and gets VGB To work right.   And maybe you can skew the random reward in favor of the smaller miners if that's possible.  Don't make it ridiculous just like a 30% margin of favor.

Well you should ask him to check again, since there are many coins that have recently come out with PoW and PoS that have Superblocks (The real name for your VGB blocks, you didn't invent them)  The way the coin is set up right now, it will pretty much suicide in 6 years.  Since it would take you a year or 2 to get a decent economy going for your coin, why would you want it to commit suicide right away.  As far as I know that is the 1 invention you did actually invent.  Since I have never seen a suicide coin before.  Most are designed to last a while.  Why would someone pour money into it when they know they will have a hard time getting any of it out as the suicide date draws near.

always the student, never the master.
Why is everyone calling it a protocol? Is there something I missed that is worthy of being called a protocol?

Try looking up protocol in the dictionary then ask again.


Edit:

I'll help you:


Protocol:  a procedure or a code for a procedure.  The golden blocks are both.

Vlad as your partner, i remove speaking duties from you at this time. lock this thread and i'll start a new one and i'll handle it. you're digging us deeper man.
