Pool eu1.blakecoin.com is down!
Do we have any other working pools?
You can try to solo mine it.
You can configure cgminer to failover to solo mining ...
./cgminer -T --cainsmore-clock 195 --icarus-timing 1.0=20 -S /dev/ttyUSB0 --verbose --url stratum+tcp://eu1.blakecoin.com:3334 --userpass username.worker:password --failover-only --url localhost:8772 --userpass username:password 2>log.txt
cool that is useful thanks kramble

my cgminer.conf now looks like this:
{
"pools" : [
{
"url" : "stratum+tcp://eu1.blakecoin.com:3334",
"user" : "UserName.Worker",
"pass" : "WorkerPass"
},
{
"url" : "127.0.0.1:8772",
"user" : Walletuser",
"pass" : "Walletuserpass"
}
],
"intensity" : "10",
"auto-gpu" : true,
"expiry" : "120",
"failover-only" : true,
"gpu-threads" : "2",
"log" : "5",
"no-restart" : true,
"queue" : "3",
"scan-time" : "30",
"worksize" : "128",
"temp-hysteresis" : "4",
"blake256" : true,
"vectors" : "1",
"failover-only" : true,
"kernel-path" : "/"
}
if it was pool 1 and pool 2 you can also add:
"no-submit-stale" : true,
but not recommended for solo or mix pool/solo
still can't get hold of kr105 I assume he is working away from home atm, I will release another server for next weekend
Edit:
updated the EU pool code to match latest I am testing on the New York server
