When computing the "profitability" for coins, do you take into account any sort of average stales/rejects from previous rounds mining that coin?
The reason I ask is because the current round seems to be mining fastcoin which just plain sucks with regard to rejects/stales. If the profitability of fastcoin isn't taking into account the ~15% rejects this round then isn't its profitability really ~85% of the reported value of 55 x .85 = 46.75?
(The round just changed to wdc as I was writing this post and it may have just answered my question...)
Looking at the current WDC round profitability of 48.2328, I suppose that your profitability calculation is probably accounting for those rejects/stales, though some feedback would be nice! Also, sorry if this question was already answered, given the flaming that already occurred on this page... the previous page...
Yes we take it into account. Each coin has a custom 'penalty' applied to its profitability rating based on general stale/reject rate of the coin. FST is fairly high, so has to be quite a bit more profitable (baseline) for us to hit it.
