It's a console program, so there's not much point in that.  Here's some of the most recent output from it running on my VPS:

Primecoin - The Prototypical "useful" Proof of Work

Accepted as valid a block someone else somewhere else mined.

(Checked it and it turned out to be acceptable so was tentatively added to the chain, at least until orphaned, if indeed it should turn out some time that it does end up orphaned.)

I can't offer constructive help unfortunately other than tell you what you probably already know, that the network hashrate is still growing (making 4k PPS not what it was a couple of days ago) and solo mining this coin can be high variance (get no blocks for a day and then suddenly 3 all come in within the space of an hour).

Because quite a few people have 200,000 pps  each. So they are sucking up all of the coins.  However if you hire an army of vps you too can do the same.
I much prefer coins that we can all mine with GPU really.

It's just bad luck.

I haven't gotten a block in 48 hours and I'm mining with 11,000 PPS total.

Im running over 6k pps and no blocks in 24 im sure its par for the course though.

You don't need to worry about me forking Primecoin, as I cannot even mine a Primecoin block let alone fork the client.

I just want to know why I can have just under 4000 PPS but not get a single block in 24 hours? And I wanted to know what it means when it says process block: Accepted?

Primecoin moving on up to 8th...
Anyone know what the last spike in chart was due to?

Is this trustworthy?

Screenshot? What about the src

Hey Salfter. Could you post a screenshot from the v.0.2.1 miner?

Aren't those fridges cupboards etc etc that track your inventory and order in stuff automatically for you out yet? Seems like it must be decades ago by now all that stuff was on its way. (Coming in another two weeks, maybe? )

Time to start doing pooled mining. yPool had a bit of a drought when I first started yesterday, but is now finding lots of blocks.

I've got a bad feeling based off your posts lately that you are trying to figure out how to make a fork of Primecoin. If I am right and it's a lame copy paste job with a couple of variables changed please don't bother.

Errr difficult question as this hour Captain

What does this mean in the debug.log?

Accepted what?

+1

Would be nice if I could come home from work and find a six pack of beer show up in my fridge simply by having left my computer on running computations all day.
