bump, we're back up

I just wanted to let you know that i've started a new pool based on the same code as tailfeather for mining litecoins under:

Try it if you like !

It depends on your hashrate.. From 24 to 72 hours.

Ok thanks. I didn't think that 24hrs was too short, I thought that it would stabilise within a few hours. How long does it usually take before you're 'mining' at full speed then?

My estimated coins/day on your stats page says ~50 given my average hash rate, however I've only got ~18 coins (including the current round coins) in the past 24hrs. This seems to happen on every pool I've tried though (you're the third). Why is this?
Also everyone seems to be abandoning you, I assume it's because of the difficulty jump??
Thanks

You're mining too short.. Did you read the above text in this thread ? Payout System is PPLNS, you'll get paid your rewards even if you stop mining, check the links on top.
Everybody is abandoning FeatherCoin at the moment, see the network hash rate.. it is more than half als low as the days before... People are moving back to litecoin.

Great pool man!! Just need some more miners, and a Stratum server, and things will be golden 
One thing I'd like to see, is an unconfirmed balance, if that's possible.

I'm already working on some visual statistical graphs.
Your unconfirmed balance is already visible. Click on Account -> Transactions and then top right corner "Unconfirmed". I might place it into the dashboard to get it more visible... Its a bit hidden at the moment.
Yeah just few more miners needed .. would be great if we hover around 200.000 kHash/s .. I'll close registration once we are so far to maintain server load and network balance.

I just wanted to mention that a botnet tried to mine at the pool today and made the load go up quite high (from 0.01 to 0.80 where 1.00 is max) within one hour.
Stales were a little higher in this phase unfortunately.
I've banned the botnet user (yes, he will not get paid).
Just a short note on that botnet miners:
You are a big problem for the mining community, the users on the pool have problems because of you, I get problems with the servers, with my provider and if everything goes wrong probably also with the law..
The zombie machines you have infected seem to mine with cpu.. According to the hashrates I see from these connections. (between 0.5 -> 40khash/s) It is pointless to mine on tailfeather.cc with cpu as the min diff is 64 and producing a share with this diff in reasonable time is only possible with hashrates (per miner) > 200 kHash/s
So all you basically do is a DDoS of the pool.. Nothing else..
Please do something else.

Just an FYI, the emails sent out by the pool currently come from the "Mainframe Mining Cooperative". Might want to change that 
Should be fixed now, thanks !
Nice pool, works smooth. The site is organized and works well.
Using it for now on.

Thanks for your compliments, currently working on stratum, doing some testing.
I have had some e-mails asking about the payment system PPLNS, I've posted some news about it as some people don't correctly understand why payouts are lower than usual at first and go up from block to block even though their hashing power stays the same.
Full payout is reached after you have submitted a certain amount of shares, that IS PPLNS, that makes the pool hopping and botnet proof, there is currently no other good protection against botnets which are a real problem for pool ops and their members.
Please dont hesitate to ask if you have any questions, search for PPLNS before flaming please
It is a smart solution, I like the way this pool is going.
Thank you for providing a pool like this.

Just activated Idle Notifications. Pool running smooth so far, thanks guys
May 02, 2013, 08:55:09 AM
Thanks, growing fast, hope we find some more blocks soon
May 02, 2013, 02:06:57 AM
I will move 1-2 of my GPU's over your way soon to test it out
May 02, 2013, 02:05:06 AM
Everything runs good so far, finding blocks as it should be and I see payouts go out on a regular basis.
Will be adding stratum shortly.

Just started using it through 50miner (CG is down and that was the easiest setup up for me right now).
Works so far!

Hi !
I'm announcing a new FeatherCoin (FTC) Pool which is currently at 0% Fee and still under development but went trough lots of testing and works good so far.
I'm adding Idle Worker Notification soon, Stratum Support is also on its way, I'm on a really fast box in germany, hosted in a big data center, so european users should mostly benefit.
Payout scheme is PPLNS.
