Sigh, I'm moving to a more stable pool.
Simplecoin - I think it will be best, if you keep the pool offline for a few days, fix the DDoS vulnerability and make it more stable.
If you let it run the way it currently does, you will scare away your entire userbase

What has happened over here?
Can I get my coins paid out. This down time is too much for me
Wow, I can get my coins. Yesterday I had 0.40 estimated. Now I have 0.25 estimated, and thats just estimated, It says I dont have anything on my account!
When I try to run the cpu-miner on linux. It says: [error] (bitcoin.c:86) This plugin is GPU only!
I'm kind of new to this...
I'm kind of new to this...
ever consider a private pool?
My "Valid This Round" shares were just lowered, while my lifetime shares are rising..
I came here to ask about this. I just pointed my GPU miner here and apart from the 4% invalids I'm getting, I also noticed this. My "estimated" payout should be much, much higher at this point (it's 0.001 BTC from a 420mhash miner, and I'm in the top 20 of people contributing) and my shares per round have been reset a couple of times now.
Are you considering a "round" to be the entire period between the last time we found a block and now, or the last time the network found a block and now? The former is correct, the latter is problematic...
edit: okay, you're looking into it, good then
Yep, think I got that issue nailed down. It shouldn't affect payment either way.
edit: it may not show up for 10min, since I did not re-run the jobs.
AND....... Another DDOS attack on the pool
I will have to leave the pool unattended later, if there is another attack while I am out or sleeping I apologize. I'll have it up again this time, and am looking into solutions.
Ok, I've tried to clear up the issue of earnings. Now I'll try again.
The old calculation was wrong, I've said it several times in here.
The new calculation is closer. The estimation is just that, an estimation. The real calculation for cheat-proof scoring is too complex to run often. Think 3-4 minutes of sql queries at max load.
For a good estimate: (your valid round shares/total round shares) * 50 btc we get on solved block.
This will be close to actual earnings, which are slightly weighted to discourage cheating.

Mine too again.
My BTC est is way off.
Stats seem to be correct now, thanks a bunch!
Also, if the DDOS attacks continue, I may have to take the pool for a few days while I work up a solution 
If that happens, I will pay out remaining balances and hold existing shares. No one will lose their work so far.

I'll look into it, probably just a stat miscalculation.

Hopefully we can find a block today. I am crossing my fingers.
We're close to 1mil shares for this round.
We're close to 1mil shares for this round.
There still seem to be problems with the stats.
Here is a snippet of mine:
Lifetime Shares: 1369
Lifetime Invalid: 24
Valid This Round: 912 shares
It should be 1369 as well for "Valid This Round", because we didn't find another block during the time I am using this pool.

These values are calculated at slightly different times to keep the sql server load down. I'm working on an easy way to iron that all out.

Are the earnings accurate now or not?
Yes, they should be close.
