And the 1: value is what? Maybe submissions was the wrong word - attempts at blocks?

I understand it's luck of the draw - hence the questions about my luck. How do you do?

The 1: [Number] refers to the number of blocks that have passed by since you started Smelter.

A: [Number] - Number of solved blocks (including orphans).

R: [Number] - Rejected.

something is very wrong with your miner Angry

i thought its supposed to take only 12.5% as fee and not all the coins ??
mined a coin where a block is 50k reward. here is what is left

6.1k is version1 posted from OP and v2 is 6.5k

Another stack of submissions and nothing accepted - has the difficulty shot up, am I unlucky, is my 5830 rubbish or is this just a total waste of time?

Quark's aren't moving much on volume either http://coinmarketcap.com/

The accepted value in Smelter is for blocks solved, not shares accepted.

Law of averages states that you will get x amount of QRK/SRC per day over the long run, when comparing the same hash rate to the pool.

Smelter doesn't work with Hawaii (290 or 290x) GPUs yet.

So is GPU Mining actually better than CPU mining for quarks? I haven't seen any great sucess stories yet.

Yes, it is much better if you have 5xxx cards.

I don't understand - if smelter could mine solo to adress 127.0.0.1, why its could't mine at any other one ? such as adress of some pool ?

Please add choose second videocard option like in CGMiner, for people who use GeForce for games and Radeon for mining.

not quite sure what im doing wrong here but it would appear that my cards want to mine at 20GH-70GH for 3 attempts then the miner crashes.

it seems like something is wrong due to getting such high rates!

has anyone discovered this? (its almost like when you forget to include the --scrypt when mining with cgminer)

any help would be great thank you :-)

Well that sucks!

Went away for about 36 hours, dropped the intensity slightly and left Smelter running. Pff!

Ooo I came down this morning to see what Smelter has had two blocks accepted over night. Easily a personal best for me. I saw the Quarkcoin QT wallet system tray note flash up with a transaction but unfortunately it vanished as soon as I moved my mouse. Looking in the transaction history of the wallet shows no transactions though Angry

I checked my cmd file and the wallet address is correct. I closed and reopened my Quark wallet and it claims to be up to date. Where'd my QRKs go Sad

?
