It was nice to see the hash rate on BTC guild push 8,000 GH/s... but now it's down below 6,900. Has anyone heard any word about moving part of the hash power to a different pool? Hopefully they are not having additional problems deploying.

False alarm it seems, back up to ~7.8 TH.

Sorry about that. Back when BTC Guild started getting DDoS'd about 2 months ago, I gave many users a private server they could access to mine from during the attacks. The server was hosted outside of the main datacenter, and as a result was not hit when the other servers were. Many users were moved to another server after the first round of attacks, still private and "protected" (due to anonymity), but not at the same location. ASICMINER was still mining on the original protected/private server.

This week I have moved all servers back into either colocation or Amazon EC2, to get away from servers with such open security systems (no 2-factor auth, poor/no IP whitelisting, too much control available through the management panels, etc.). As a result, ASICMINER had to shift their Stratum proxies to a new IP, and it caused a temporary dip in the hash rate. However, the result of the move is ASICMINER is now hashing on a colocated server in a very stable and reliable datacenter, one that will likely never be moved as long as BTC Guild is in business.
