I just tried the new phoenix/phatk/phatk2, I'm even getting better hashrates w/ cgminer now that phateus is on board.

Thanks for the tip, I'll look into it.

Sorry, I have the bad habit of editing my posts in a non-obvious way.

I've put a 1 BTC bounty on the pident thread for inclusion of this pool so you may be contacted by the pident developer at some point.  Hopefully little or no work will be required on your part and the inclusion of this pool on pident will be a plus.

Also, congratulations on reaching 99% pool efficiency!


Thank you and Thank you!

1% stale pool-wide is pretty good. Now if everyone would use cgminer it would be 99.8% Tongue

Alas. Smiley

You'll be happy to know that my stales are down to about 0.12% (for the last 10000 shares) with phoenix 1.5 and phatk 2.2, so there is some hope for other popular mining software.

Right now I'm interesting in promoting the pool and trying to bring it up to 90 Gh/s (about 1 block per day at the current difficulty).

A thought on this: I guess it would be pretty easy to add '[below average]' to the right of a users stale percentage whenever this is so.  This might be more annoying than anything else though so probably not a good idea.

I've just visited the pool stats page and was amused to see that the three most recent blocks have been found by the 28th, 29th, and 30th fastest miners.  Tsk tsk you guys near the top of the hashrates list; it's quality not quantity!

I'm hoping my 3 new 5850s might find a few Wink

Excellent, more hashing power is always appreciated!  It's good to see some competition at the top of the hashrates list, even the likes of loderunner is having to work hard!  I only have two 5850s to my name unfortunately (as you may well know as I've been quite noisy on the mining forums in the past).  This pool is growing so quickly!  Soon I'll be knocked off the top 30 hashrates list.

I am working with SC on trying to make estimates more accurate and payouts more transparent (so you can see exactly how many of the last N blocks you submitted for a block).

Excellent, I'm looking forward to this.

Along these lines I would be interested to see a top-10 lowest reject rate list.  This would perhaps further encourage people to try and lower their rejects further and ultimately the pool will be able to boast an impressive "pool efficiency".

I have 5 BTC ready to donate to the pool following enhancements as you describe.


I like the idea of a lowest reject rate. Perhaps once the bugs are squashed I'll look into implementing that.

Take your time and enjoy. Smiley

No, auto-payouts are still not turned on. I need to be sure they work 100% correctly with the new database model.

Instant payout is working correctly. I will have auto working soon.

Ok.  I just didn't know whether or not you were aware of this.  I'm very glad you are being careful with the bitcoins you control.

On the stats, they were developed by a user from ozcoin. As my framework has changed, so has the way I access the stats. If any of the graphs are sorted incorrectly, please let me know, I thought I fixed them all.

Lifetime shares was also fixed, there was a nullable field in the database which gummed up the sql calculation.

Nice to see you're on top of things.  I'll make some noise here when I see a problem.

My balance is now about 7.5 BTC and no attempt has been made to pay out automatically to my BTC address.  Perhaps I've not checked a box somewhere or have misinterpreted one or more of the fields on the account details page.

Another block,

quite good.

I concur!
Though, it is block 141553, and 0 confirms!?! We're currently on block 141559!

tvhwgt's block did the same so I'm not too worried.  I guess we'll see.


Corrected in the stats!  Grin
At 8 now!

Ah, a reported stats bug.  I guess that was the most likely problem.

It's still a bit odd that some of the older blocks are marked 'Done' and some are marked '120 confirms'.  I also found it amusing a few days ago to find that the datapoints on the x-axis of the below graph were ordered alphabetically rather than chronologically.  This generated x-axes such as:

10th  11th  12th  13th  8th  9th

Unless this too was fixed I expect we'll see it again on 3rd September:

1st  2nd  29th  3rd  30th  31st

My lifetime shares were stuck at 0 for a very long time and that could have been fixed by now but I guess that could be a feature.

Where you mention fees on the home page I would like to see it made clear whether or not transaction fees are included in the reward.  I assume transaction fees are not included but if it is not difficult to include them perhaps the good will generated by such a gesture will earn the pool more in donations anyway.  I would certainly increase my donation in response by 1%.  If very few people are donating more than 0% (unfortunately quite likely) then I understand the necessity of keeping the transaction fees.

Also, a feature for the future: It would be nice for a user to be able to specify a transaction fee for withdrawal.  Some pools are not as generous to 0-fee transactions as this one is and I've found transactions with a fee of 0 can sometimes take quite a bit of time.

I found myself naturally mentioning simplecoin.us on the occasional thread (such as the thread about whether or not pool hopping is ethical).  I'm glad to see that the flurry of blocks has come shortly after the establishment of the new server and the frequent posts on this thread has kept it close to the stickied pools.

Good luck ironing out the various bugs and I hope the new server will manage impressive uptime.
