Right, but what I DO NOT understand is the total absence of any updates, status, news . . . nothing!

mmfiore · · #12623

the problem is scalability. The system keeps getting overloaded. I wonder if an overflow system could be setup until the final solution is completed.

mickeekung · · #12624

Can connect to the pool but 100 share stale / reject all hashrate.

FRISKIE · · #12625

Not just today, every time, which is a hell of a lot of incidents, and no updates, until some summary late in the day of what happened.

mmfiore · · #12626

My miners are running fine no stale or rejects

FRISKIE · · #12627

You're connecting from NH?

mickeekung · · #12628

Yes.

mmfiore · · #12629

no not using NH

FRISKIE · · #12630

@ mickeekung - connecting rom NH?

FRISKIE · · #12631

Yeah, sorry . . . your comment slipped in between mine :)

Forum notification · · #12632

has started a new topic: No BTC payouts?

virtuado · · #12633

Agree, status updates, news and stuff would be a big improvement...

Renting 500mhs of power

tp31989 · · #12635

Weekly specials 100% uptime

mmfiore · · #12636

I am curious how much btc for 500mhs and for how long does it run on NH?

FRISKIE · · #12637

Pop over here and they have tables with all the breakdowns - https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp

mmfiore · · #12638

thanks

FRISKIE · · #12639

vhmanu · · #12640

and pool dead again

lynx · · #12641

Pool workin incorrect - coins not exchanging.

lynx · · #12642

Ok. Now work.

mmfiore · · #12643

The pool is gasping for air. going to switch miners to give it a chance to catch up.

n00bminer · · #12644

mine switched

Nalith · · #12645

I’m wondering if the new disks that were installed are not the causing some of the problems? Since that change was made the server has been lagging more than usual.

FRISKIE · · #12646

Any of you guys trading your BTC into USDT until the fork madness is over?

mmfiore · · #12647

Well the pool seems to be dead at this point.

biscayne · · #12648

Completely dead!

n00bminer · · #12649

friskie btc to ltc =p

CritterDog · · #12650

why is pool dead yet again?

CritterDog · · #12651

Is anyone else using Exodus for there multi coin wallet..Looks nice https://www.exodus.io

FRISKIE · · #12652

Hey CritterDog, I use it to hold some stuff, it's slick and works well, regular updates come out on schedule

vhmanu · · #12653

my miner says "Calculating Hashrate (1 error)". Never seen this before

Nalith · · #12654

Same here....

vhmanu · · #12655

ah okay. guesss thats the "if static diffculty is too low we will raise it" feature. douebled my difficutly now automatically

AvPro · · #12656

same for me :/

vhmanu · · #12657

and doubled it again......whhhaaaaat. difficulty that high sucks :(

vhmanu · · #12658

my difficulty is at 10times what i usually run and the error is still present --> my static difficulty is mooning. is this a bug or "should" my L3+ run at 500k+?

mickeekung · · #12659

What is mooning?

vhmanu · · #12660

my miners static difficulty. steve and chris implemented a feature where they raise it when they deem it too low

Steve Sokolowski · · #12661

This is a new way to reduce load. When miners submit more than 2 shares per second, the difficulty is raised to reduce the number of shares. Profitability is not affected by difficulty.

Greemhold · · #12662

anyone here?

Greemhold · · #12663

need help for my miner

If the D arg is omitted is this code deactivated? Consider a solo miner with a powerful rig, its conceivable to hit two blocks in a second with some of these coins.

mmfiore · · #12665

Hey Steve perhaps you can set a cutoff connections limit as server approaches overload this will prevent crashes and prevent loss of revenue

Greemhold · · #12666

guyz my sgminer will not even start and my nsgminer after some time desables threads and stops , what should i do?

mmfiore · · #12667

has it been working?

Greemhold · · #12668

my miners?

Greemhold · · #12669

no they dont

okay steve. then why is my difficulty rocketing to over 500k? i have 2-3 minutes per share. not second as you write

mmfiore · · #12671

so it is a new first time setup?

Greemhold · · #12672

i have tryied on other pools but i want this one

Greemhold · · #12673

and they’ve worked before

mmfiore · · #12674

Steve I manually set my titans at 8192 would it help if I increased it a notch?

mmfiore · · #12675

What is your command line look like greemhold

Greemhold · · #12676

nsgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u Greemhold -p "a=scrypt" -g 2 -I 20 --shaders 1280

vhmanu · · #12677

pool earnings wrong again. please someone elese recheck: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1671&p=7244#p7244

mmfiore · · #12678

ah using a video card... looks good to me did you try a reboot.

Greemhold · · #12679

pc restart or miner?

mmfiore · · #12680

pc

tmopar · · #12681

@vhmanu :  Can you try omitting the D arg and see if your hash rate improves and let us know please?

vhmanu · · #12682

if you want to know if my dynamic D is lower compared to the new "static" system. yes by roughly half

Greemhold · · #12683

Thread 0 still exists, killing it off [21:37:30] Thread 1 still exists, killing it off

Greemhold · · #12684

why is this happening?

tmopar · · #12685

@vhmanu :  So that I understand, with the D arg your hash is higher despite the new version compared to normal D arg omission?

Greemhold · · #12686

why is this happening? Thread 0 still exists, killing it off [21:37:30] Thread 1 still exists, killing it off

vhmanu · · #12687

you dont need the a=scrypt. just use "-P x" without the quotes. and i have no idea what te -g 2 -i 20 and shaders 1280 means :)

Greemhold · · #12688

ok ill try

vhmanu · · #12689

and is "--scrypt" right? not only -scrypt ?

Greemhold · · #12690

i use nsgminer

Greemhold · · #12691

i would prefer sgminer but it doesnt even start

mickeekung · · #12692

BTC payout sent from PH. Waiting for confirmation.

Greemhold · · #12693

stop the btc payout

Greemhold · · #12694

its going to hardfork in 2 days

mickeekung · · #12695

Just an announcement. You can choose other coin for payout.

Greemhold · · #12696

GPU still showing activity suggesting a hard hang.

Greemhold · · #12697

what does that mean?

CritterDog · · #12698

Looking for someone that owns a Bitman L3+ I just got mine and have a question..Please PM me. Thanks

n00bminer · · #12699

critter you should join the slack as a few own them in there

FRISKIE · · #12700

Well, here's the new bullshit performance graph! https://imgsafe.org/image/fc32a49ce0

FRISKIE · · #12701

Enough - fuck this - who wants to recommend other pools they have good experience with?

- looks very similar to mine graph for last 2 hours

FRISKIE · · #12703

Thanks for confirming the data

mine_x · · #12704

I don’t know why the stable hashpower is not required here .. anymore

mine_x · · #12705

I am not speaking about bloody NH bots which really kills many pools and profit by pumping 50 G for 5 minutes, but I am speaking about stable few GH for 24 hours

FRISKIE · · #12706

@ Steve & Chris - I don't know what kind of fucking joke this has become for you guys - I know later will come the usual uber-long explanation post from Steve, and the pool will stagger on as before, lurching along between crisis and downtime.

FRISKIE · · #12707

I had so much patience with things here but I finally drew the line when I realized these fuckers can't even be bothered to send regular updates.

FRISKIE · · #12708

Anyway, I'm out, finished with PH - good luck to you guys, you'll need it.

mine_x · · #12709

Good luck! Drop me PM if you will find good multi pool

FRISKIE · · #12710

Will do mate!

mine_x · · #12711

THANKS!

steveacc1 · · #12714

In live worker status is it normal to have No valid shares yet . . .

steveacc1 · · #12715

BTW just got this setup so yes I am a newbie

oo is this the new trend https://imgsafe.org/image/084b539ac3

AvPro · · #12718

Stales are increased at least x2 since this difficulty override fix

FRISKIE · · #12719

FRISKIE · · #12720

Ok, so now that I have a much better understanding of things, and why the pool is so terrible these days, I’m back :D

FRISKIE · · #12721

Will patiently wait until BIP91 signaling is over with, and expect attacks will stop and life returns to normal :D
