No excuse for stuck coins. If blocks are being solved for a coin by any pool then they mature. Pay up. If you cant do a manual payouts yourself, just stay away from that pool.
I mined at clever but the hashrate I get there after days and days is 5-10% lower than at say coinotron or f2pool and f2pool is like 8000+ miles away.
I test pools with some of my miners for a week or 2, compare payouts and go from there.
1.3Mhs x 5= 5.4 at clever but 6.5-7 or more at another pool when the reject/stale rate is included. I lost a tiny bit of profit during the testing.
vardiff locked at 512 may be the cause but I dont have time to wait for someone to fix their pool. I leave and check back in a few weeks. ROI is all that is important.
Also, dont be a dick because he may take offense and your $1 will never arrive.
The pool now supports manual difficulty.
NEW! Setup your own difficulty
Our new stratum server has VARDIFF enabled and it should work great for most users. But if you have a miner with dozens of chips working as a single connection you might want to setup your own difficulty. You can do this by using password d=XXXX where XXXX is number between 128 and 65536 (only powers of 2 are accepted, so 128, 256, 512, etc, e.g. d=512). This will set a fixed difficulty and disable vardiff. It works per connection so you can choose separate difficulty for each of your miners.
Some temporary changes to the pool
Temporarily vardiff is disabled and there's a fixed difficulty 512. Fee is at a fixed 2%. The FAQ isn't updated yet to reflect this.
Then why is that up on the site still?
Because there are much more important things to do than updating the stupid faq, such as tweaking the profit engine, fix stuck balances and prepare the x11 multipool?
Attention to detail ever hear of it? If it is lacking in one place, the odds are other things are missed as well. Try to sorta kinda almost do a job in the real world and see where it gets you. If I did it in my job, I would be gone and looking for a new job or jail time because people would be DEAD. Design a bridge that collapses at ANY time in its normal useful life and see where it gets you. There is no room for mistakes and sloppy work. I guess you work for the government where clueless people get to keep the job they have and get raises no matter what happens
Lack of attention to detail is why payouts are stuck. 100's of other pools get it right all day long everyday. The there are those who don't even look at the faq. What faqing idiots!
Next,
If the hashrate on your miners is stable then you are ok, If they are jumping all around on one pool and not other pools the flaky pool is the issue not your miners. Pools that change coins cause stops and starts as new work is issued based on the coin that appears to be the most profitable and this will show as a lower hashrate because you are changing work (blocks).
