I don't know if this is something like what you're looking for, but I did a mining guide write up a while back.

Hope that helps!

Nice man - I'm going to try this out with someone this weekend and see how they do. Perfect - thanks for sharing solutions

The guide doesn't explain how to solo mine.

Cheers!.

If you are a person with a farm big enough to solo mine and actually profit, I would think you wouldn't need a guide...

Everyone says that, but nobody really measures... in the long run if the algo is fair you should get at least as much as the pool plus the pool fee. I am measuring now with other coin, and so far the pool has paid me 50% less of the coins I would have got mining solo.

Also the algo is not fair, the hash rate is slightly better with higher diff so you can get 3-5% more coins in the long run, just I don't think it is possible at the moment unless you know how to program, which makes it even more unfair.

There is the security issue of having a pool with more than 50% of the hashrate.

Cheers!.

TLDR; Is better for the coin if there is a guide to solo mine, even if it is only for the paranoids like me.
