I'm a little confused as to the actual operation of this game.

Does each bid reset the clock to the original countdown time?

How does the pot work? Because in this game right now http://www.satoshidoshi.com/rounds/round?id=30 there is enough in the pot to pay the third bet but it hasn't been paid out. Is there just some timing bug or is there some other reason it hasn't been paid out?

I've received a refund of the coins I sent them. So I didn't get scammed, they're just having some system problems that seriously need to be worked out.

[SOLVED] Momento VPS [phantomcircuit]

I signed up for an account with Momemto VPS on January 20, I sent them 0.5BTC just to test out their service. It took a support ticket and 2 days for the payment to actually show up in my account. The response I got to the ticket was that there was a rounding issue in their payment processor, ok no problem, stuff like that happens.

Once my account was credited I tried to configure a VPS instance. It didn't work right away so I gave it a day, then I opened another support ticket. I didn't hear anything for 2 days, then I opened another ticket asking for a full refund on my BTC, because having to wait a week for a service that should be near instant is completely unacceptable. Even the front page of the website says "Automated provisioning. Your VPS will be available immediately."

I hadn't heard anything about my VPS not being provisioned or about my refund in two days so I sent a PM to phantomcircuit who according to this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=60943.0 runs the show there. No response of course.

On Feb 2nd I did get a response to my ticket asking them to look into the fact that my instance wasn't running yet, the response stated "Sorry things got stuck." and was marked as resolved. Guess what? It still wasn't running so it's not resolved.

That's where I'm at right now, no VPS instance, no refund and no communication or support from the operator. Oh and did I mention that the billing program has been happily deducting money from my account the whole time?

Stay away from Momemto VPS, don't trust phantomcircuit with a single satoshi of your money

I like the site so far. I've got about 10BTC invested in there so far.

I do have an issue I'd like to raise though. I can't rate any users because I have a 0 rating and apparently I need a rating of 3 to rate other users. I don't care to prove my identity because I don't want to borrow any coins. However I've lent some to a delinquent loan and want to give the borrower a negative rating.

Can you help me with this?

As a warning to anyone who might be interested in trading with Jermaine.

He is two payments late on a loan at BTCJAM and refuses to answer any of my PMs about it.

I compiled the git source under Ubuntu and when I run i0coind I get this error message

Code:
i0coind: main.cpp:1566: bool LoadBlockIndex(bool): Assertion `block.hashMerkleRoot == uint256("0x01f79e95511e638325c288818ed10d95cdfb30bb775c8f024f380a4c9bcd8d4e")' failed.

Is this an error in compilation or is it trying to use the real genesis block but it doesn't exist yet?

Has anyone else noticed that polmine has removed the round shares from their whole website? BH shows 0 and a nice flat line now. Too bad... I made a good earning from that pool.

Just so I fully understand mining deepbit here, I have to set it to mine_deepbit, set my disabled pools to info and then run it with --startLP? What if I'm using the OldDefaultScheduler will it work? Or do I have to use the current default scheduler?

I fixed some DB problems and LP looks fixed. So I tagged v0.1.1. If you're running a version which is moderately newish this is probably what you want to use.

I think you introduced a new one, though.

Whenever BH writes to database, no further submitted shares are updated, or if they are they're not showing up on the webpage.

Example starting with no database.
Before first "writing to database" user shares are updated for pool 1. As soon as the message shows up, user shares stay static.
Switching to pool 2, the same behaviour is evident. User shares for pool 2 updates up till the point that changes are written to the database, and then stay static.

Stales are still updating though, and as far as I can tell it has no impact on performance.

I can confirm this.

I thought it was just me... I'm seeing this too

Now that I think about it a little more, maybe a better approach than spending the same amount of time on each pool in a round robin would be a decaying amount of time based on the completion percentage. Or at least a preemptive approach where we switch right away to a pool that has just completed a block in order to mine during those juicy first couple of percentage points. Comments?

Ok after finally figuring out how to use gitHub I uploaded my changes and made a pull request. For anyone who wants to check it out go here https://github.com/gtrrkicw/bitHopper

edit: This scheduler will hop between pools that are <43% every 10 minutes in a round robin. Not sure if that was the intention or not but it seems logical to me.

Dammit I just spent the last half hour working on the slice scheduler myself and I was about to post my fix...
