Hi Guys,

It seems my original post has caused so much confusion I would like to explain a bit further. I was/am having trouble connecting to the pool. Here is what I was/am trying to do. I wanted to mine the 'Quark' algo...not the coin (payout to a different coin). While mining the 'Quark' algo, I entered a completely different coin/algo to be paid in (lets say Dash (x11), as an example). I set my GPU to the correct 'Quark' port of 4033. I entered my 'Dash' info (address), etc, but am getting the 'Authenication failure' error message.

Is that 'NOT' the way this pool operates? In order for me to mine a 'quark' algo, do I have to enter/mine to a quark address. If so, then your instructions are not very good and how do I get a pay-out to a different coin than what I mined?

I hope this clears up the problem and someone can now tell me what to do...other than tell me to read the friggin' directions. ~~(not a noob, ya boob)~~.

Thank You

yiimp doesn't do coin conversion so you mine a coin, not an algo, and get paid in that coin. It doesn't work like the old yaamp.

Thank You...that was such a simple answer which got right to the jest of the question. So much extra was made of the original....Much appreciated!!

So, I assume if you want to mine GraniteCoin there, you have to point your miner to the x11 port, specify a GRN wallet address as username, and 'c=GRN' as your password, correct ?
You will not mine the highest profit (BowsCoin at the moment of writing), but only GraniteCoin. Correct?

this is correct grout ...

ive tested epsylons yiimp address with granite - and it works perfectly ...

he sometimes brings it offline when he works on it - or when there is other maintenance to be done ... in such a case - we welcome you to come and mine at the official granite pool - http://grn-pool.granitecoin.com/ ...

i have updated the pool a few days ago with various changes - a couple of which improve the mining experience as well as making the mining a better experience - like zero fees using the pool - bonus payments for the worker for every block the user solves - as well as a pool bonus for every block solved spread across the users of the pool ...

all other information is in the thread ... specifically - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=718939.msg13147973#msg13147973 ...

these changes are the prelude to the release of the new pools that we have planned for 2016 ...

happy mining ...
