^^^ Zneww posts quite a bit in this thread and in other pool threads and is usually trying to help others or offer advice and promote critical thinking.

@Gtraah. Your posts going all the way back to the middlecoin days have made you come accross like an entitled, high maintenance teenager. I think you pushed zneew past his frustration threshold to out rite insult you in the way he did. Perhaps you should rethink your posting strategy, think before posting, if you want people to help you more in the future.

I should have got 0.01 BTC today but got 0.0062, don't know what that is all about. Well, strange, moving on to the next pool.

The post LITERALLY above yours would hopefully give some insight to anyone with a fraction of critical thinking skills and explain your situation. Oh well. See ya.

There aren't enough uptodate scrypt coins on the switcher. Please add a link to this thread on your "about" page. Consider going with a fee of 1.5% instead to give your pool some kind of incentive to mine there. At the moment coinshift is doing substantially worse than clevermining.

Also show the profitability calculations of how coins are being selected. eg. Something like coin profitability vs LTC like your example under "about".

Clevermining reporting .00461 BTC/mh/day on thier website at this very moment.
CoinShift reporting .00496 BTC/mh/day.

I don't see how that means "substantially worse". If anything they are the two closest matched profitability wise and it really comes down to luck and hashrate and personal preference between the two. I see no reason for your argument.

VT, congrats on the baby. I'm gonna throw my hash here for awhile and see how it goes. Figure all the multi pools are doing pretty poorly anyway, so what's there to lose? Anyway, seems to be working pretty well so far. Keep up the good work and good luck with the little one.

So that would mean you were one of the miners who were taking up to 10% more of your fair share of profits from the pool, however unknowingly.
Oh, I knew what I was doing by cranking my miners the way I did - but as I said, I have discovered many blocks for WafflePool, and a rare few were orphans.
For the others who had their equipment tuned correctly for mining almost anywhere else than wafflepool, they were receiving up to 10% less of profits directly due to their efforts, depending upon the ratio of efficient to inefficient miners in the pool.  The actual percentages depend upon whether wafflepool was actually a pool of fools, and only poolwaffle knows that as he is the only one with access to the relevant statistics.
Ya... I still think that was one of the best parts about wafflepool - haha.
I too would be very curious about sfire's 20GH/s mining efficiency prior to the server changeover, which I consider to be a very welcome one.  Ironically, depending upon that statistic, it might not have been the largest miner that was keeping us from efficiently mining the lowest difficult coins, but the smaller miners instead!
Indeed.

--

I am getting around 2.5% average reject rate now after re-tuning for the new reject profile.

Looks like the new stratum server is costing me overall about 2% in decreased hashrate, and 2% additional rejects (very short sample period so far, mind you)

Guess this was the point of these changes.  Not overly pleased myself.

So you're seriously bummed out getting 2.5% rejects? Even though the server changes help your profitability overall?

Terk!

What is the deal...?!

on the Homepage right up top  I read 2% fee in big black letters.  


But reading through the FAQ I read : "All numbers are after fee, so they are your actual earnings. Our fee is progressive and depends on how good we perform in a given day. On good days we take a bit higher fee but on bad days we take very little fee. This ensures that your profits aren't hit that much on a bad day. Our fee during bad days is as low as 1%."

Listen, I am not complaining about the fees.  I am quite a happy camper here.  I just think if there is one thing that should be clear...it should be the fees.

Edit to add:

I dont mind getting wet, but dont piss on my leg and tell me it is raining.



Not to speak for Terk, but the FAQ just needs to be updated. Terk was experimenting with the variable fee idea when the pool was relatively new. He later decided to fix it to 2%. So 2% is the correct fee.

Side note: All relevant information about this pool can be found in this very thread. It goes all the way back to when the pool was first started. There is an answer to almost every single question/topic at everyone's disposal here.

I confirm - it's a graph!

lol, nice1 mate  Smiley

What i meant was that middlecoin came back to the top of the list with 0.008328 per mh/s

Middlecoin was on top yesterday because on Wednesdays the >0.001 payouts go out. So the total BTC paid is higher. Look at the graph now.

I have 3 computers on the new east server. 1 of them is getting the Rejected untracked stratum share messages, and the other 2 are not. I know they don't affect anything, but on the west server all 3 were getting that message.

The 1 getting the message has all 280X's. The 2 not getting the message are 1 of all 270X's, and one of a mix of both. Maybe that will give you a clue to track down the issue. Perhaps it has something to do with hash rates.

The untracked stratum issue seems to be random. I did some tests just restarting my miner multiple times. It seems like 80% of the time, the untracked stratum issues come up and once they appear for that cgminer "session" they never go away. 20% of the time they don't show up and they will not show up ever as long as that session is going and cgminer/cgwatcher will behave in it's normal manner: only reporting real rejects. From this experience, it seems like some kind of sync issue, but pure speculating.

Anyway East server still has the issue, but overall it's running great. I've gone back to 20 intensity and after 3 hrs, 2.5% rejected reported on the site. Will see how it goes after a full 24. Great job Terk!

I have registered just to say... change payouts back to how it was previously.

But you don't say why.
Is there a particular reason you want them to go back?

Payouts more regular, access to BTC sooner.

A feature of Clevermining has been removed because people can't do maths?

Don't see how it matters either way if you still get your daily payout. Do you really need your ~$6 right away?

Hi, i live in new zealand and i was wondering if it would be better to connect to the asian vs u.s. servers

Only way to really know is to try them out and see for yourself Smiley

^ That is why you need to look at 21 day avg. not the day to day. It accounts for all the fluctuations in the end.

EDIT: looks like there is now 28 day avg on poolpicker. Even better.

Now, why would the efficiency ever be below 100% of LTC, why not mine LTC if it's more profitable?

It's a two ended stick with you-know-what on both ends. Channeling that much power without breaking something is hard if not impossible.

The only thing he needs to improve is communication - and a bit more manual trades like in the old days, alright. That's thousands of people and you can't make them all happy but a few tweets a day would go a long way.

All of them multipools have their own kind of problems at the moment. Just a brief experience of a few days on each shows that:

Wafflepool doesn't know what to mine with all that power right now without forking an actually profitable coin. They mined WorldCoin almost all day long. It goes like this: WDC-DOGE-LTC-WDC-WDC-WDC-LTC....

CleverMining has still absurd amounts of rejected shares issue and yes, this actually affects your earnings. Duh!

HashCows guys seem to be working personally on the background but their problem is the website interface. Lacking the simplest of the stats even some 20Mh/s pool is able to offer. If they can keep up the manual trading and get some technical help for the site maybe, they'd be #1 in no time.

What's actually happening is that H2o has become so powerful he can now steal coins that you mine on other pools. That's why they are all low paying ATM.  Tongue

Been mining for about 2 weeks now and am totally impressed.  about a day ago though hash rate displayed seems to be way off from CGminer.  as you can see, my reject percentage shouldn't account for a 400kh/s difference between the chart on the site and my WU.  in the bottom graph showing -10, -20,-30, etc it's showing hashrate above 1.7.  is there a bug in that chart or am i really only getting credit for 1.2? did something change in the last few days?

http://i.imgur.com/Wt6Tl3m.png

Looks like you have --no submit stale set to true. Turn that off. Your missing out on shares. As for your accepted 24h, you may have had disconnects/failovers throughout the day.

rejects be damned, EU servers be damned, people who cant enter their BTC address be damned.  

I am ready for Terk to get back to investing his time into algorithm and profitably work.



The other stuff yeah, but why EU servers be damnes? Us in EU dont deserve a low latency server?

He/She is tired of people asking about it. When it is ready, I'm sure we will be informed.

hashco had a btc/Mh/s spike, possible longterm unexchanged being delivered? But now the btc/Mh/s has went back where it used to be.
[Suspicious link removed]/en/stats[/url]
Would like to see that kind of longterm detailed stats for clevermining too. Trek, is ith hard to modify your graphs timespan?

d@mn how you add url in post here?

What is hashcows mining that they are making .0142BTC/Mh... they're killing it. Middlecoin has died though, 0.0036... ouch
actually this is not what hashcows users say on their bitcointalk thread...

Yep read that also this morning.
Poolpicker.eu is not so accurate

I believe poolpicker is accurate (as best it can be), it's just that pools operate differently. The numbers reported for HC are most likely from long term buildup of unexchanged. Once that is done it will go back to where it was for awhile ( unless they are really onto something ). You need to compare the 14 day avg. not the day to day. This also answers your question about long term avg for CM. At least 14 days that is.

Yep. It seems only miners that have been there for awhile building up immature/unexchanged are getting those numbers. People switching over there in the last 2 days and expecting that reported payout is not the reality. At least that's what I gather from reading the Hashcows thread. Haven't mined there since before the hack so just speculating.

Yes clevermining froze the payouts, but only for you. /s

Stop. Calm yourself. Read up on the last 20 pages of this thread. Hopefully you will find the answer of what you should do next.

my GPU rig cannot seem to handle a set difficulty of 512. on other pools at 128 or 256 it runs fine on all 4 cards, but at 512 GPU 2 is declared sick in less than 30 seconds

any ideas? its a sapphire R9 270x

That is odd. Hard to say without more information about your setup. If only GPU 2 is failing, it sounds like a thermal problem. Try jacking your fan up to 100 as a test. Of course it could be a myriad of other issues: not enough power, drivers, even monitor setup or could just be a bad card. Pure assumptions here.
