But a "share" on bitfunder = 1 seat, right?

(And bitfunder just crashed for me, nice timing :p)

Read the BitFunder profile for the pass-thru as it contains need to know information. 100 BitFunder "shares" = 1 NastyFans seat.

Aha, I see, thanks!

So, to own shares of nasty mining hashrate, one buys seats in nastyfans? (or nastyfans shares on bitfunder), am I right?

Confusing to see 2 names being used mixed

Technically speaking, you can't own "shares" of Nasty Mining. You can own "seats" in the NastyFans fan club, which receive weekly distributions from the public donation address. However, you are correct that seats can be purchased via www.nastyfans.org or the pass-thrus on BitFunder & BTCT.

My next question is probably to OG Nasty.. If we all used the P2Pool you've got set up to do our individual mining, would that have a detrimental affect in terms of bandwidth? If so, then I'll just use a different node..

Bandwidth isn't a real big issue. I don't see enough people mining with us immediately to cause issues, and anything can be upgraded.

UPDATE:
The 1g silver NastyFans coins have arrived and they are beautiful. I'll be shipping these out tomorrow evening. If anyone wants to grab a couple, check out the below thread. As stated, 0.01 BTC from the sale of each coin will be donated to NastyFans.

So, the more power P2Pool has (together with all the nodes) the less variance it will have. This will help Nasty Fans too.

Thanks Carnth, so I for one will work on changing my measly mining to P2Pool.

It seems like the more people that mine a particular P2Pool, that might help with luck?

P2Pool is made up of many different nodes--all connected together. A node is a computer that is running the P2Pool software. It automatically connects to other nodes, in much the same way the standard Bitcoin client does. So, if you mine on one particular node, you help every node!

When you submit a P2Pool pplns share, it is sent to all nodes. If one node goes down, the others will still make sure you get your payments (if you are owed any).

So, the more power P2Pool has (together with all the nodes) the less variance it will have. This will help Nasty Fans too.

OK then, more thread hijacking with P2Pool! Cheesy

Ok, but here's one thing that may bring it back to Nasty fans - I'm hoping anyway!

So, from what I've heard (and please forgive my ignorance, I'm still learning here!) From what I deduced from what was said about P2Pool... It seems like the more people that mine a particular P2Pool, that might help with luck? If that's true then, what if Nasty Fans do their individual mining on the P2Pool that Nasty set up and is running for the Fans? I mean, I'd mine for nasty with my measly 3 Gh/s but I just got them and I kind of want them to earn SOME of what I spent on them.. But if all of the Nasty Fans (some, or even just a few) would help in some way or other then why not point to OG Nasty's P2Pool?

Again, forgive me if I'm ignorant.. I'm just going by what I've deduced from this 'hijack' about P2Pool..

Butterfly labs already delaying till February. He says only a few will be shipped at the end of the year which I highly doubt.

The first "bullet run" that will ship by the end of the year will be very small and the timeline and details have already been made public. We are all hoping that our first 5 unit order makes the cut. Even if it takes until February, that isn't exactly a problem... This is chess, not checkers.

Thought I was up to the challenge of getting on P2Pool but after an hour of trying to configure it and getting nowhere I gave up Huh

, sorry guys :-(

Getting a local P2Pool node setup can be tricky. The good news is that anyone can use a public a P2Pool node. They did all the hard P2Pool setup for you. (Some public nodes charge a fee some don't.) Pick a node that works best for you. Pro Tip: Use multiple nodes as backups.

All you have to do is connect your miner to a node and use your BTC payout address as your username and "x" and as the password. Warning: Make sure your payout address is from a "standard" wallet--not from an exchange or other service.

Example:
http://example.tld:9332
User: 1NastyFRkeUTmMdbMmzggDVTQA6r3ibUoX
Pass: x

And that's it.

Here is a (sort of out-of-date) list I found after doing an exhaustive single search:

Well, you have .5 Gh/s more than me! Hence asking how much "enough power" was to make a difference at p2pool...

OK.

If you make .05 BTC per day or more at other pools then give P2Pool a try.
Please note: Since P2Pool is a "smaller" pool, pool luck will heavily affect your payouts.
Also note: P2Pool works best if you stick with it. You'll need 1 to 3 days to get "normalized" payouts.
If any of the above make you uncomfortable, then don't try P2Pool.

Features that all P2Pool nodes offer:

PPLNS
No registration
Just start mining!
Payout instantly whenever a block is found on any node.
No minimum payout as long as you have an active share
P2Pool pays the block reward AND all the TX fees in that block!
Other pools keep the TX fees for themselves.
The miner that finds the block gets an extra bonus! (0.5% of the block payout)
Decent graphs show your progress and speed.
No coins stored in the server's wallet.
Better security
Payouts show up as a mined transaction.
If node goes down, mine at another P2Pool node.
No loss of PPLNS shares, other nodes guarantee your payout.
Use other nodes as backups in your miner config.

Now that that's done: With apologies to OgNasty for a temporary thread hijack, lets get back on topic with Nasty Fans.

I highly recommend it to anyone with enough mining power.

What is 'enough' mining power?

Honestly, I've only mined through BitMinter... So maybe I'll check it out when I get home from work..

Maybe I should try mining p2pool... sadly i have never given it a shot.

I highly recommend it to anyone with enough mining power. 0 fee PPLNS (Some public nodes charge a fee). All TX fees collected in the block are paid to miners. The block finder gets a small bonus.
