can everybody update their p2pools please ?
looks like there is a p2pool (at least one) on the wrong fork
i also wasted some electricity there

Important point here, if you're on p2pool you're at the whimsy of people who are lazy to update. Make sure your peers are all on the correct client and blockchain!

Less than a day ago, the fork occurred: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=472116 missed it.

every time a fork occurs, god kills a kitteh.

sometimes when forks occur, miners kill kitteh. fucking forks.

We reached out to all known pool owners well in good time. This fork was needed to stop multipools raping the coin and leaving miners with huge diff.
KGW works well now.

Yeah the fork was announced 5 days prior to the link you referenced (if not more). We reached out HARD to pool operators starting 2/10, and even pre-released the binaries to make it abundantly clear the fork was neigh. Posted all over facebook, twitter, reddit, bitcointalk and KittehCoin forums. If your pool's contact form does not lead to a meaningful mailbox please let me know and in the future should we need to fork again I'll PM you here on BCT (alyons). We now have a "contact sheet" for pools to help mitigate this should it happen again in the future.

On the flipside it sounds like alyons made everything right, nice work in that regard

awesome work!
