Why are you all freaking out? I have had zero problems solo mining once I got everything configured properly.

I suggest that you all learn how to properly set up your system to solo mine so you don't have to rely on pools during a coin launch.

There shouldn't even BE any pools for at least a few hours into a coin launch. They cause inevitable forks and ACTUALLY kill coins.

PROTIP: THE OP SOLO MINING INSTRUCTIONS WERE INCORRECT
