Are there people out there that DON't mine 24/7?    What a waste if so... lol
but...I disagree....I DO agree it SHOULD come out the same....but it doesn't.
early on, I took two identical miners, one pointed at slush, one at eligius, for two days.....
Eliguis payed out about 15% more overall during that time....   try it...you will see.
Maybe it's the extra loot he offers?...some, but not all......
OR... just look up recent blocks,and do the math.....  
Yeah, slushie had larger payouts, but less frequent(obviously)...  
I didn't feel like loosing 15% a day anymore, so settled on Eligius...
I'm actually a bit hesitant to try another....
anyone on ghash.io in here have about 1.25 Th/s I can compare to?

I would say the luck was the difference, and whatever the pool had on hand at the time. I've done that before with slush and several other pools, and slush paid out more.

Again, please try to choose any other pool at isn't currently 24% of the network
ya, choose a pool that takes hours for each round....    not me!
I'm not in this for charity....
I see you atop Eligius page........ good stuff....you sayin' you'd move when wizkid reaches 25%?
Only a month ago, everyone was worried about a "51% attack", now it's 25%?
What will it be next month?
Judging from your previous posts you are mining 24/7 and not quitting anytime soon. Quite the opposite. You have your moneys ready to be spent on more miners.

If this is the case it makes absolutely no difference whether you are using a large or a small pool, assuming their fees and uptime are the same. Really. No difference at all on the BTC earned.

To be fair I think it needs more than 48 hours to average out, different pools have different "luck" at different times, its only if you are mining in a really tiny pool that it takes too long to find anything.

I had stable output on slush's for a long time, now I'm on bitminter trying to win a Jupiter, but just for this month, I'll try Elgius in December.

This pretty much.

I get paid once a day by eligius ~6BTC why would you want to get paid any sooner?

No one said they are worried about a 25% attack, this is conjecture. But why choose ghash.io/cex.io when they are obviously becoming a large part of the network, why help them when there are other pools that offer the same service?

If wizkid reached 25% I would move sure, takes two seconds. If I had maybe 7-10TH more hashrate I would be solo mining and not even worry about a pool.

Tin Foil Hat -

How do you know CEX.io isn't mining on their own solo pool + since they are tied in with ghash.io, maybe together they have an even larger majority of the network than we think.

Impatience and lack of understanding isn't a reason to not mine at a pool with less % of the network.

I have been reading the thread and trying to find out the best pool for a Nov order, so I can preconfigure my miner.  

I have started a poll on new thread.  

Can you please vote.  Thanks in advance



https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/poll-kncminer-what-pool-do-you-use-kncminer-only-341888


As far as I am aware Eligius and Ghash.io are the only 2 pools that:

  • have fast enough speeds that you don't have no worry about variance
  • have zero fees
  • have merged mining (Eligius gives you 105% NMC while GHash.io gives you NMC, IXC and Devcoin)
  • TX fees are shared between miners


So for a maximum profit these 2 are the best pools.

there seems to be no option to choose ghash.io in the preconfigure pool menu on the KnC site / order page, which is a problem.  unless they are easy to configure.


ROFL= about variance...

I may try .io if there were a good set of directions....the wiki is vague.
it gives desktop directions....we have stanalone machines...

It's easy.

1) Create an account on cex.io.
2) Log in to ghash.io using the same user/pass as the account you created on cex.io.
3) Point your miners to the address listed at the top of the mining stats page.
4) Wait a while, then collect mined loot from your cex.io account at your leisure, or set up automatic payouts.

What's the general recommendation for running the "enable all cores" patch? Is it wise to run if a Jupiter is running average / just below average hash speeds? Any glitches encountered?

If you ar on fw 0.99, then no! Enable cores is inside the cgkncminer!

Here is an unofficial photo from bitcoinorama i reveived it at this moment:

January Batch!!!!


Why waste charcoal, I'll just set these atop my Avalon units.

The "Tuning Suite" would keep us busy for a bit, while we wait.....hint  hint....


also...the clean power is key to steadiness..... the last big dip on the chart is eligius stats page was offline for a few hours, but you can clearly see the difference now for sure....

Well, all of my boards have been stickered #1. I didn't even know there were other numbers. I guess that means orama was telling the truth when he said they don't mean anything. Sure has been the case with me anyway.

they wouldn't just randomly put a number 1 sticker on the board for no reason....

orama saying "no reason" means "i don't know"
Indeed, even if it's for lulz, a sticker in a manufacturing process, is put there, FOR A REASON!

Looks like Keith is getting involved in the official forums. That's brilliant to see.
Yes, it's very nice to see someone from KNC writing courteous and professional messages, addressing customer queries politely with well written and precise answers.

But Keith is you right?  Wink

I've never had a problem with their customer service, my emails are always answered within 24 hours and I'm normally able to get through on the phone within 2/3 tries. Emilia and Anna have been lovely through out the process.

I am not suggesting that KNC are perfect, just stating my opinion based on my experiences.

what news we have about november shipping?
 Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley

Mid next week, unofficially.
For jonoiv, ONE page back

Yes I read that but where did he get that info from?   You can't just post "Mid next week, unofficially."  without any source!  unofficially... from where? by who? when?
Why did you ask me where I read it then??

Since it was unofficial you can take it or leave it, why don't you post the op and ask him where he heard it.

But thanks for wasting my time trying to help you find something you'd already read.

what? you sent me on a goose chase to reread that last 25-30 pages of this thread, looking for the answer.   But it does not say anywhere.  

I asked   "middle of next week for the first units or for the parts to arrive?"

the answer is no-one knows but based on what bitcoinorama said it's that mid next week is to start production. Not shipping!
 


Someone asked: "what news for November SHIPPING" someone else replied "Mid next week, unofficially."
You asked "middle of next week for the first units or for the parts to arrive?"
I replied quoting this "Mid next week, unofficially." with regard SHIPPING then pointed you to that post.

Is that not clear enough for you? nobody said it was a guarantee nor did they quote a source either KNC or Bitcoinorama.

If you had read the post I quoted then surely that would have been clear to you.

Why would there be anything relating to November shipping in this thread from before the KNC released information on the shipping delay posted on the 15th November so that would narrow down your search parameters considerably but since you'd already read what I'd regurgitated for you then I'm not sure what you mean.

sure but the 15th does take us back almost 40 pages (800 posts).

I appologise if i pissed you off!   Anyway, lets hope mid next week we start getting tracking numbers Smiley

No worries, we'll all be a bit happier once they're plugged in, switched on and mining at least as fast as the 650GH promised ;-)
