Re: [ANN][Pool][Profit-Switch][Optional Auto-Exchange per Coin][Vardiff] ~ Hashcows
Ok....just...WOW all that wasted work last night. See this is what I meant about keeping us "in the know." I wouldn't have been mining with you all night had you specified it was not just a simple "stratum issue" or slow data imports, but actual factual ****ed up rounds with 0 payout.
Next sign of error, I'm off to middlecoin til all this crap is in working order. Prices are too low and going lower too quick to piss around.
Sorry, but business is business.

Few pages back there is statement that due to import of data, last day round is not counted yet and will be credited tommorow. I am starting to hate this kind of blind / unable to read dickheads bitching "Oooh, my free money making machine is broken, fix it asap" on all topics. FY.
Surely I must not have seen the data import issue post, since I mentioned that in my post and all. This was not all data issues, these were snubbed rounds of nothing AFTER the data issues, for about 2 hours hours of electricity spent. Not sure how you get "free" either when the card cost money and so does juice.
Apt to shoot, shot down instead.
You can go to Hashcows FAQ section once You´ll learn to read . There You´ll find out that NO SHARE IS LOST, since its counted to next round. And You can even sell Your cards when they are no longer need for heating Your house for
Even if they carry over, is that still not a poor average? Say I was to get and average of .001 btc per round for two rounds. If a full length rounds worth of shares go to 0 blocks found, and the next is normal, that's a total of .001 btc, 50% profit regardless. While this is a great strat to minimize loses, it still does not make up for the lost time. If it did, they would be paying out more than taking in.
My only beef with this is that last night, after one of the admins came to mention why the stratum was disconnecting, I was thrilled he did so, so I wasn't fumbling in the dark again. One then mentioned some time later how many of the rounds were short and/or ended before finding a block because of these issues, something that was not posted with the "connection issues" post. These are not just unpaid, poorly informed rounds, they were outright failures in generating and profit. It was seemingly opportunistically left out, because how many people would stick around mining overnight if they knew?
Hold on a second...are all the people complaining telling us that you don't set up failover pools? That's the entire idea of failover pools. If you can't mine in one place, you go to another and mine there. I make sure to have at least three alive pools at any given time just to be safe. The admins have been nothing but forthright with information, I really doubt they would start trying to dupe anyone NOW of all times.
Besides, those rounds are not lost profit. Maybe at most, you have 10 mins here and there of downtime. You're not making enough in those couple of mins to really matter. If you have cgminer 3.7.2 setup like you should, it has the 5 minute stability testing where it sends you to another pool and makes sure the pool is stable before switching you back over. The feature is there for a reason. USE IT.
