It can take days after a round is ended for the coin to mature and be traded. So you have to be patient. I suspect that it won't always be like this but for now it is what it is.

aTriz, we get this and some of us are also trying to explain the situation however you have to at least put up an extra stat ASAP which is the total some of the Confirmed Exchanged Balance. Currently it only shows current round only and people think that's all they got after hours or days of mining.

I would agree. I believe an extra row on the stats page that has the same output but over the last 24-48 hours would be great.

On another note, I personally have mined here since before the hack with the Kalroth CGminer fork and have no problems during the coin switches. I set the failover delay for 20 seconds and have verified many times by watching cgminer and through different stats that during the coin switches it only spend 20 seconds at my altpool.
For reference, I average 0.0136 BTC/(MH/s)/Day since 2014/01/12 and 0.010 BTC/(MH/s)/Day this past month, which has been low everywhere. I also keep tabs on places like clevermining and their stats trend with hashcow even though they have almost 4 times as many users. Some days hashcow is higher and some days they are.

Just my two cents,
Goobers

can you post the command or part in the configuration file that controls this switching?  right now my Kalroth is switching after 60 seconds, it would be nice to decrease it.  thanks

Atriz said: "We have fixed the issue with disconnects. Though you will still see it on coin switches for now. "

Well im not sure if the pool can be profitable with all the switching, ive seen 4 coin changes already today in the past few hours, i would have over 6 times as much BTC now just mining DOGE for the past 36hrs.. I understand there may be lag on payments and i will stick with it for another 12hrs but its not looking good tbh..


I had a good chunk come in after 2 days so give it some time.  also use the kalroth fork of cgminer it will switch back after only 60 seconds instead of 5 minutes.

Hashcows has fake stats. I cant confirm poolpickers stats.

I use stats.hashco.ws to gather my stats for hashcows so if they're incorrect so am PoolPickers.

FYI. For 48hrs mining on hashcows with ~1.1MHs has gotten me 0.0047 BTC (unex, exchanged and paidout.). Not exactly matching what they claim....

yikes

after 12 hours of mining on hashcows with 2.6MHs my balance was 0.00237467

edit- a couple days later .0092 just showed up.  maybe their numbers aren't lying.

quoting myself and the edit for updated information

3 more arrived today and all work perfectly thanks much.  one question, is it OK to power some of the risers with power from the 2nd PSU? i've heard this can burn things out but can you confirm before I try this?  thanks

Why would that "burn things out" I've got a customer who has a stack of power supplies running the same rig. I like to make sure that the risers are powered by the same psu as the motherboard, because they need to reset when the computer resets. You can always use one of my new dual psu adapters now to turn them both off at the same time.

On my big racks, I leave the pcie power lines always on, and just reset the little power supplies in each computer which also feed the 5v to the riser cards.

i had assumed it was due to a timing issue with the power or something is why people claimed that.  i have an add2psu which switches the 2nd PSU on with the system so maybe it will work.  thanks

Oh, and in case anyone finds this kind of stuff interesting - Here is an article discussing the new Nvidia 750 TI and it's hash rate. If you notice, it only uses 60W's @ full load versus the 300W a 290. Yes it is a lower hash rate, but imagine having 6 of these on 1 500W psu. The savings in electricity alone would be nice! Fitting 6 on 1 motherboard to make up for the hash rate difference may not be so nice!

http://www.pcper.com/news/General-Tech/NVIDIA-Coin-Mining-Performance-Increases-Maxwell-and-GTX-750-Ti
Not to spam this thread with offtopic, but I just read that review and IMO is pure crap. So a 750Ti overclocked uses the same power as at stock?? Did he actually build the rig? Read the comment section. Also see this review: http://www.extremetech.com/gaming/176785-nvidias-new-maxwell-powered-gtx-750-ti-is-hyper-efficient-quiet-a-serious-threat-to-amd/3

Let's wait for coin miners review and experience with the card, not from PC hardware sites that cater for and make money out of gamers.

also you have to keep in mind the 750ti needs to run directly on a 16x slot on the motherboard, making its cost that much higher when you figure in the other hardware you'll need to run a decent quantity of them

Not impressed but Waffle and Clever still not close to MC in regards to pay-out (forgetting the last few days).

So your saying MC is fixed now? You are getting better payouts right now compared to waffle and clever?


actually i think MC is now more profitable- according to @mc_watcher MC rate was 0.0114BTC/MH and clevermining is only showing 0.01035 BTC/MH, which I can confirm is about right.  I'm actually seeing a bit less there b/c of the rejects.

And there's an update on MiddleCoin. Check its Twitter!

"Middlecoin ‏@middlecoinpool 12m

The pool wasn't properly recording some blocks starting on the 16th. Stats will be frozen while the pool crunches some numbers."

i earned more in 16 hours at another site than 26 here.  waiting until h2o fixes whatever is going on.  compared BTC/1mhs on several sites over the last week and the low payouts here can't be due to weak altcoins in general as that trend wasn't seen on other sites. 

What site are you using?

clevermining.  reduced the intensity on the 7850s to 17 and it seems to be working ok so far.

guys,

I want to back at multipools, found 3 (middlecoin, hashcows, altcoinplex)

May you share please your experience with them to see which one is better.

Try pool.trademybit.com - hyperactive dev and lot of nice (but also bit confusing) stats and decent payout. I´ve got half of HR here and half there and profits seems to be equal - with bit difference on both sides. Avoid HashCows, because they are somehow broken with more than 30% less payout since christmass hack (IMHO they stealing from users to cover loses, but its pure speculation).

I've experienced the same on hashcows.  they actually had higher returns than middlecoin for me before the hack, not sure why they started messing with their algo it was fine.

New drinking game:

A shot everytime someone quotes that really annoyingly large android app picture with their address.

2x shots for someone posting a funny NEW (unused in this thread) popcorn picture.

3x if you can convince ak111n to make his own thread as he should have done and stop spamming this one (even if it is Middlecoin related) and then apologize to us for his spam.
