[on uno.coin-pool.org being down]
I mine there as well and didn't notice. Thanks for the heads up. The UNO page does not work, but the main page coin-pool.org is still active.
Did you hear anything from them?
No, didn't hear anything back from them -- they probably haven't even seen my email yet and may not know the pool is down, it being the weekend and all.
However I remembered the new "switchpool.co.uk" announced here by FK and an ensuing discussion about it, so I checked them out (I *really* didn't like the idea of not being about to mine my favorite coin LOL). Here is what I just posted in the Switchpool announcement thread here on BCT:
Had been using another pool (uno.coin-pool.org), but I noticed my 2 Antminer S3's reported that pool as "Dead" -- I checked them because I hadn't received any payouts in the last several days, plus their UNO web page always seemed to give me problems -- if I left it open for some time, it would (believe it or not) bring down my whole system! Really, one web page in Chrome freezing the entire Windows 7 system *completely*Huh??
Anyway, I remember reading in the UNO thread about the
http://switchpool.co.uk/ pool, remembered about the zero pool fee for UNO folks, and decided to check it out.
So far, I am quite impressed. I can't believe more people aren't using this for UNO; as I type this, it looks like I'm the only UNO "worker" there (I do see where someone else was mining it for a couple of hours this morning). Wow.
I also like how easy it is to set up: just your UNO address as your user name, the stratum+tcp://switchpool.co.uk:3008 URL, and any old password. No logins, registration and all that malarky.
I am curious as to whether you can set up separate worker names. I've got 3 rigs: 2 Antminer S3's, and 1 "rig" consisting of 26 USB ASICs (all running under MultiMiner). Can you do something like UNOaddress_Antminer1, UNOaddress_Antminer2, and UNOaddress_USBsticks, thus having 3 workers and being able to see how each "rig" is performing for UNO? It's no big deal if you can't, the simplicity as it is is just fine with using just plain UNOaddress for each rig.
I'm gonna keep a close eye on this one, and pass on the word.
Thanks!
