Thanks for the update via email.
Stats are acting funny again or I misunderstood something. The expected earnings at the Dashboard went back to previous days, everything fine up until then, but right after the db maintenance time they plunged again. Probably you're still working on it, sorry for bothering in that case. Just wanted to let you know.
In my specific case it went from ca. 0.017~0.019 down to 0.0091 out of the blue. Workers amount haven't changed that much nor my speed, so I guess it's not in connection with that.
Appreciated!

And it's down again, but my miner is reporting shares being accepted so only the front-end seems to be affected.
There were a couple of users that came in and seemingly were able to submit (possibly) fake work... I'm still investigating this but in the meantime both of their combined shares have been isolated. Their possibly bogus shares are no longer affecting everyone's payouts for the round...
Everything should be fixed now. We'll keep monitoring... we're mining internally too... so rest assured something like this won't go unnoticed!
i noticed my stats and some other users on the pool were extremely high yesterday
I had some workers on full failover on the pool and some others on via load balance with eligius and bitsolo as the other 2 and they were reporting correct values for the load balance.. so i think the issue is not "users submitting fake work" it was something wrong with the pool stats, if you look back you can see the total pool hash speed jump around alot. at one point there was a guy with like 1 or 2PH showing in the stats
It wasn't the stats alone... I literally moved the shares of these 2 users outside the main tables... and rebuilt all the statistics... it took some time but all the stat interference they contributed to is no longer there.... There are a couple of new things I added in the backend to prevent this sort of thing from happening again. That particular guy and another are no longer part of the pool.
yeah I noticed the particular guy in the stats is gone, not sure who the other was.. but as long as its taken care of not a huge deal! lets just move on and find a block
s0br, I'm so happy that this matter was mentioned openly in this forum! As soon as I noticed those 2.5 PH/s I've googled the guy's nickname and found him in a couple of forums, but kind of didn't like the atmosphere, so to speak.
I've had not good experiences in a couple pools months ago. I've decided not to mention that and just kept mining, nor didn't want to sound 'paranoid' lol!
I thought those two were part of your team indeed.
As I said, I really appreciate this to have been mentioned, it really helps to build confidence in your projects. Keep up with the good job, man! Cheers to everyone, and c'mon "block", don't be shy!

I don't have a huge investment in mining HW here, so this is just some feedback in the hope it might be useful.
The wild swings in the stats have been going on since before the 2 problem guys showed up. Now that those 2 are gone I'm still seeing wide swings on the stats. The really bad part from a miner's perspective is you don't know if you're equipment is messed up, or your network is, or the server's network is, or something in between. So that's a problem. I have 4 S1s connected and practially every time I check the Dashboard, at least 1 is missing, sometimes more. My hashrate goes all the way from 1.1TH to 400GH or none, which is crazy. There's no way 4 S1s can do 1.1TH. When it drops, you can spend a lot of time checking everything which can make you crazy real fast.
Like I said, just some feedback.

looks like it but now back in action. c'mon hit some blocks now !

Houston, we have a problem? Is this pool running in a VM or on it's own HW?
August 05, 2014, 06:42:27 AM
I got the first payout alright but while waiting to solve the current block I have seen my estimated payout go from about .014 to .0087 when I pulled my miners off the site. Now my estimated payout has dropped to .0048. I have never seen a pool drop the estimated payout before. I realize the site is in beta but is this normal?
Yes, in my experience. It happens when the number of miners increase as it certainly did, because it is proportional. Also we've crossed the estimated expected time for solving the block and as far as I understand this also influences the expected amount. I'm positive about the former, not so about the latter. I went also form ca. .020 yesterday to almost 0.008 today. Sad. Cheers!
Yes it's sad but the payout model now looks at the last 10 rounds.. it'll statistically balance out over time unless math ceases to follow universal rules here...
http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/blocks.php
You can see an older pool's statistical variance there... I've been holding my breath just like everyone else I'm sure... it still doesn't change the fact that this round has been extraordinarily terrible...
August 05, 2014, 06:10:27 AM
You guys are working hard. I only got 6-7 Rockminer to help out. That is my whole SHA256 strength.
August 05, 2014, 02:41:52 AM
Good pool so far, nice admin, now we only need to crack this block....lol
August 04, 2014, 10:17:51 PM
UPDATE: Back to "normal" at 2.5 PH/s, lol.
August 04, 2014, 09:53:35 PM
I like it! Question, what does the "-B5's" stand for after S3?

Guess it means Batch 5 or something

Love the color layout and dashboard. Pointing all my available hashrate to them in support!! which means all my 7 and only rockminer!!
New and good pools are hard to find, they are worth the support

Hi All,
I can highly recommend this pool. I love the dashboard display of all of the mining statistics. The generous prizes are just gravy on top of what I think is a quality mining pool. Keep up the great work!!!
