I'm getting: [00:55:03] Pool 0 stratum+tcp://us.clevermining.com:3333 not responding! Anyone else?
Yes. I'm mining to my failover pool now. I imagine Terk is doing something with the servers to bring them all online. He may have had to take the US sever down for a few minutes.
I'm fairly new to all of this and I have learned a lot, but I have a question.
If I am mining at another pool, I can submit 100 shares in a few minutes. With CM, it can take an hour to submit that many shares. Is that due to VARDIFF being disabled?
Yes it seems to me that the problems have been fixed! 5% rejects is awesome, and once we have the EU and Asia servers it will get even better. Thank you so much Terk for this awesome pool. Now we just need the profitability to go up... Anyways, Terk, I would suggest making an iPhone and Android app for this pool. That would be pretty cool.
I think this is the first time I have ever seen the BTC/per day go below .01 in this pool
At least everything else is running smooth now though. Hopefully something more profitable than litecoin crops up again soon.
I am curious to know if I can mine on CM using GUIminer? I've had some issues using CGminer and am a bit less than knowledgeable when it comes to getting that software up and running properly. I had previously been using GUIminer on middlecoin just fine, would it work on CM as well?
It should work just fine. Only one way to know for sure...
I so want this to work; I like the site and I have tried mining with my 7950 twice. But the rejection rate is really ridiculous. I mined for whole night and rejected shares were nearly 35% ! If I mine on any other profit-switching pool with SAME SETTINGS, I am getting only 5% rejection rate.
A lot people are having bad rejection rates here. There a few things left to tweak, but I believe Terk will get it sorted in due time. Instead of focusing on the rejection rates though, you should be comparing how much coin you profited over a given course of time.
I would rather have a high rejection and higher profit as opposed to having a small reject rate but less profit.
I would compare a 24hr stint at mining for Terk against mining on the other profit switching pools. It will take a few days to do the tests, but you will have irrefutable evidence at the end of the test phase that will point you to the most profitable pool for you.
