Yes orphans are invalid blocks, orphan is the name the bitcoin client uses, so we re-used that name.
The blockexplorer link links to a block number, so it always links to a valid block, invalid blocks mean there are 2 blocks that have the same number, but one of the 2 blocks is valid, and one is invalid, and unfortunately ours has become invalid.
This is the way that bitcoin works, and there is not much we can do about it....
This is the transaction for that block:
{
"account" : "",
"category" : "orphan",
"amount" : 50.06900000,
"confirmations" : 0,
"txid" : "0d43faa1cb3464fbbde4d2b782987588551968fd6ca108c6efca42981e5d4e28",
"time" : 1311135895
}

Block invalid?
Block invalid?
I would like to know as well.
Block link is active/valid....but we lost the payout ?
Does anyone know if ORPHAN = INVALID ?
Looks like I got my answer..... https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Block_chain

Blocks in shorter chains (or invalid chains) are called "orphan blocks", and while they are stored, they are not used for anything. When a block becomes an orphan block, all of its valid transactions are re-added to the pool of queued transactions and will be included in another block. The 50 BTC reward for the orphan block will be lost, which is why a network-enforced 100-block maturation time for generations exists.

I continue to have problems connecting to eu or eu2. Never seen this new error message before but it seems to be happening every time it tries to submit a found hash. I can see that stats show no shares going to the servers. I can mine solo and on slushes pool and don't see this problem. Help me Mr. Sam?
I'm not having CoinMan's problem, but I just can't connect to either server at all, miners keep retrying but failing.

Sooooooo, is this a scam or not? Didn't diablo call you guys out for being one? What's the dealio?
Diablo saw that Triplemining uses a hybrid referral system and decided to make a sticky calling the pool a scam with absolutely no research, evidence, or explanation. He still hasn't said anything about the matter, just seemed like an attempt to kill a newly formed pool. It was a pretty lame move on his part, using his influence on this board for highschool-level forum politics...
I don't know if anyone noticed, but that thread has long been unstuck. Diablo does have a "boss" and a "co-worker" of Diablo's informed me that Diablo was being reported. Soon after, the thread got un-stickied.
So an upgrade from a GTX 460 to a HD 5830 is huge, weeeeeee

I've been mining here from the start and have gotten every single bitcoin owed to me. I make more here than I have anywhere else and that is with no referral bonus. Call it luck.
I have no active miners in my minipool yet somehow Triplemining hasn't collapsed, crazy how non-pyramid schemes work.

People, please stop pool hopping! It makes your asshole bleed and you go limp in less than a year.
On the other hand, this is actually good when thieves go limp. It helps to clean the gene pool from you clowns.

Yeah, its amazing how many people leave at the end and join on a new block .. Bye bye little triplemining family, we are a grown up pool now

eu goes currently to eu1
The number of servers is invisible, we can add and remove without you noticing. There are 2 clusters, eu1 and eu2.
The idea between eu1 and eu2 is that they are 100% seperated, in seperated datacenters with seperated uplinks and all. If either one goes down, the other one can still continue to work. So consider it 2 different pools, eu1 and eu2, but the data from both pools is gathererd at a central location so if either pool wins a block, you will get your piece of the cake based on the shares you've submitted at either pool. If you have an option to mine with a fallback pool, configure the other as fallback.

Yeah seems that too many people are switching to eu2 now :/ i'm mining on eu1 now
So since my miners are still pointed to eu.triplemining.com, am I getting redirected to eu1 or eu2, or are there 3 servers total now?
i just had a brief "upstream RPC error" msg in guiminer on eu2, it lasted about 10 sec and then went backto normal - just FYI
edit: just again..seems to come and go

Everything is back ... Of all things that could go wrong we had an attack on the website.
We will be moving the site to another server in the next few hours.

Btw we hit a new high this morning .. 150Gh/s
what is required to be stickied in top 10 pools? 200Ghash? 250? ... we may get there soon with the help of at least 3 russian and 1 ukraine overclockers teams..
but i suspect Diablo would hate to do it
