Wait wait wait... you're telling me that a "fix" was pushed by someone OTHER than the dev team? And you're asking us to willingly get on a fork run/started by a rogue pool?
That's freaking ridiculous.
To top it off, that means Criptoe has had EXCLUSIVE access to this fork for how long now at a ridiculously low difficulty?
I'm sorry... this is bullshit. Totally unacceptable on every level.
Kheg,
Maybe some background... we run both a public and private pool network... we noticed a fork... we were the first to announce it... we alerted the dev... we were told that the technical side of the dev team was asleep(literally)... we have been in constant contact with Klondikecoin... we made the choice to push ahead with a fix... the dev knew this... we spent nearly 4 hours of writing and testing the fix... we pushed everything to Github as soon as we confirmed that the fix worked for us... we informed the dev of the fix and code changes... we announced we had a fix and that the fix was on Github... the dev team has reviewed the fix... it has become the unofficial fix... and we have made a huge effort to not take over the network including closing pool registrations... and as far as I know the technical dev team has not yet woken up.
Would have you preferred that we let KDC burn?
