Hi Citronick:
I see your suggested config on nicehash, but then i think about that time when nicehash get out of orders.

1.- what's your comments about that, is needed or not? (because im thinking on add a backup pool for that time)
2.- That backup need an extranonce off (I think), do you have an example (For command line off course, we are on simplemining Wink

)?

Thanks in Advance!

1. 1st NH pool should be nearest to your miner. The failover pool should be the main pool (ie. Nicehash USA node). The USA node I think should be the "most protected" node for NH since, all their users will probably complain if the pool is down. So NH will have all the incentive in the world to keep that main node alive.

1b. In the case of "out of orders" - I doubt it. I see in order marketplace for Cryptonight now -- seems more buyers then sellers driving up selling price. IMHO, as long as ETH, ZEC or XMR is still top ranking in NH and also active in most crypto currency exchanges like Poloniex -- nothing to worry about. If "out of orders" really happens, assuming really no buyers then .... probably you need to change strategy to mine to a XMR pool (as your failover pool) or change coin entirely.

2. extranonce is a NH thing - so as long as rigs pointed to NH, I think sgminer by default turns it on. You should be able to see the extranonce status checked in NH worker site.

This is just my opinion and strategies. Welcome any other feedback.
