I joined this pool this morning at around 9am PST. My machine is a crossfire setup with 4800's doing 150 Mh/s

Since joining I have "earned" an estimated 1 btc and two rounds have already been completed, however my bitcoin client shows no payments received.

I admit I am new to this, however, I am using the custom miner with the correct flags and the stats page on www.bitcoinpool.com shows that my miners are submitting shares correctly.

Why no payment? Sad

Sincerely,
Hopeful but dissapointed n00b miner

p.s. My username here is the same as my username on the pool stats page.

p.p.s My address is 19vg91RrXPMdWydgxv4R6TRfMjruVgoG6o (donations of 0.01 or less would be greatly appreciated Cheesy

) I got 5 btcents from the faucet! Yay!

Also is it true that the bitcoin client does not report balances of less than 0.01? If so, how do I check my balances?

Great... I feel like an idiot now because I think I just figured it out... When at least 120 other clients confirm the result then the unconfirmed earnings get sent to me. Correct?

Please make this clearer on your site for n00bs like me. Also thanks for hosting a such an awesome and efficient pool. As an engineer I approve all deferments of inevitable entropy universe death! Keep up the WINNING.

It takes 120 blocks following the block that the pool solved in order to "confirm" it, payment is then distributed when the server next checks. One block is generated on average every 600 seconds, or 10 minutes. 1200 minutes is 20 hours. So it takes about 20 hours after the solution of a block in order for payment to be distributed. The status of each solved block can be viewed at the bottom of the stats page, currently we have 2 solved but unconfirmed blocks in the list.
