SERVERS ARE ABOUT TO POP...THATS WHAT'S ABOUT TO HAPPEN. DB WILL GO DOWN, SERVERS WILL BE NON-RESPONSIVE AND WE WILL EFFECTIVELY KILLED ALL SMALL PROFIT COINS. I HOPE POOL IS PAYING ATTENTION HERE AND ENSURING HE HAS PROPER STOP GAPS IN PLACE. ONE OF THEM SHOULD BE WORKER SIGN UP, THAT WAY HE CAN CONTROL THE POOL AS FAR AS HOW MUCH HASH IS ALLOWED ON HIS POOL SO THIS CRAP OF "POOL SURGING" STOPS BEFORE EVERYTHING CRASHES AND WE ALL MINE FOR NOTHING.

I'm hesitant to respond because of the all-caps, but I'll bite. The servers are fine, they're well within limits, and can be expected to handle around 20GH/s without problems (assuming nothing outside of regular load increases).

Now my miner is reporting I CANT process shares any bigger than 64....which sucks....now that the pool is HUGE, my contribution just shrank 10 fold.

I don't know of any miner that reports you can't process shares larger than a certain size (assume you mean difficulty). Also your math needs work. Your contribution dropped by 10x indeed, but the total profits of the pool increased by 10x. Which leaves your overall change at what exactly?

Fucking math. How does it work?

If this doesn't get resolved soon, I will leave. I basically have stopped mining completely at this point.

If what doesn't get resolved soon? People joining the pool?

Since the MiddleCoin revenue is quite low the last days, I have started an experiment to compare profitability between MiddleCoin EU, MiddleCoin Amsterdam, CleverMining, WafflePool, Coinsolver, Hashbros and Hashcows. 12Mh/s. Topic here

I'm excited to see how this turns out! I'm obviously biased, but I think we've got a great pool going. If we're at the top, awesome! If we're at the bottom, well then theres plenty of room for improvement

Poolwaffle: can we get block finder stats again? It is showing 0 with no history for a while now. That transparency seems very important in my mind, as it allows for miner stats to be compared to the pool stats to ensure all found blocks are being distributed to the pool.

I'll see what I can do. Current priority is making sure everything stays up, and adding more endpoints. Didn't expect to need them this quickly, but I guess its a good problem to have. The lack of sleep, less so

Everyone: I don't know why you are worried about the pool growing. It is just decreasing our variance, and even with the doge block halving our profits are excellent right now. Limiting membership or something similar is just silly - miners will just go to another profit switching pool and the small alt coins will still get mined either way. I don't know why anyone thinks the several GH address is a problem - servers seem stable snd responsive, and the user is probably mining at max diff.

This is correct. Added hashpower isn't dropping revenue for anyone, all it does is reduce variance, which everyone should be happy about.
