PoDC 2.0 payment issues from Dec 25, 2019 to Jan 16, 2020, I've identified 518,639 BBP (122 line items) that are candidates for reimbursement.
Option 1: Shall I submit sanctuary proposals for each CPK, detailing the payouts?
Option 2: Send me 518,639 BBP and I'll distribute it, with documentation. BKdkszSubBe9cNurd2LoBjPuaFhTL7utYw
Option 3: There's 146k BBP in the bounty wallet I can use. Remainder 372,639 BKdkszSubBe9cNurd2LoBjPuaFhTL7utYw
Full details and methodology is available to anyone wanting to review out of curiosity or validate my work.
Based on the payout each day, I created median value of BBP to RAC ratio per day. This is the multiplier I used based on the RAC of the cpid I retrieved from boincstats (same as WCG). If the CPK was overpaid overall (total payments equal more than 110% of estimated payments) then there is no reimbursement for that CPK since they received more already.
Some caveats in my analysis:
* the RAC to BBP multiplier is best effort and not always best value. If a RAC whale was underpaid, this can throw off the ratio
* GSC payments are lumped into one (PoDC, Healing, POOM, etc) making it difficult to separate out non-PODC payment without performing more analysis. I looked at leaderboard but some prominence seems to be current day not on gsc block day?
* I counted the BBP balance of the CPK when the GSC reward was transmitted. If their balance had enough stake based on the team they were on (BBP = ^1.3 and non-BBP = ^1.6), then I assumed they had enough stake. I realize balance may not reflect full coin age transmission.
* Some small incidents where the GSC transmission was not sent for the CPK automatically using RAC & BBP balance day of was the best way to be inclusive
* Since the code did not offer partial payments, I did not adjust for this and respected what the code was written to do
I sent you 518,640 from my wallet, please distribute it any way you want, and thank you for taking on this endeavor.
I had missed a payment or two, but the focus on fairness and the effort put into correction is much more valuable than the compensation itself.
Sun, if you can come up with a tipping bot on Discord, I will be the first to chip in - I know you will use it for a good cause
