My first post doesn't count?  Default KGW is a coin fountain.  You don't even need to exploit it.  Just throw hash at the coin, and it starts spitting blocks out.  Grab about 40 - 50 blocks in a couple minutes, then take your hash elsewhere.  Simple as that.  BOB's Wormhole addresses that issue.  Does it create more problems than it addresses?  That's why I posted here for review.  Did I choose KGW for Dobbscoin?  No.  Another member of the Dobbscoin crew approached Shakezula on the subject of difficulty retarget algorithms, and he put together this commit, which with settings like "PastSecondsMin = TimeDaySeconds * 2.5;" was sure to turn Dobbscoin into a coin fountain.  Not to mention that he failed to address the fact that Dobbscoin has a working testnet.  BOB's Wormhole is KGW tuned to a 10 minute block target, with a much smaller event horizon window.  Settings like no one else is running.  Put forth in this thread to be scrutinized.  I personally think KGW sucks.  The Wormhole IMO being the best implementation out.  I'll take clamping over coin fountain, any day.  Especially with a 10 minute block target, on a coin that isn't meant for speculators.  Maybe look at my commit history for Dobbscoin, and learn how to make a Coingen coin better than most of whats out right now.
