I'm glad you received it. Your payout history on your account will look a bit unusual because I uncovered a bug in the system that prevents single payouts of 100,000,000 coins or greater. I never uncovered the issue before because Cryptsy never sent the money to our wallet in the first place. For accounting purposes I had to split it into four smaller payouts. It's still the same amount of money.

I'm working on a permanent fix for the problem. The issue is is caused by the Dimecoin daemon having a maximum transaction size of 20 000 000 coins. You earn more than that per day, which causes two issues.

First, Cryptsy is limited by the daemon in that they can't issue transactions larger than 20 000 000 coins, but their system isn't smart enough to know that limitation and reject such large withdrawals as it should. Instead, if you request a withdrawal larger than 20 000 000 coins, your coins get indefinitely locked into a "pending withdrawal" until you contact support and get them to refund you. The other issue is that once the coins enter our wallet, our automated payout system tries to send one payment transaction but can't due to the maximum transfer limitation, so your balance never gets paid automatically.

I am working on implementing behavior to account for these odd daemon bugs since other daemons are affected by similar issues (at different amounts), but I can't guarantee a time for their implementation. For the past few days, I have been manually paying you smaller transactions, and I will continue doing that until I can get a permanent fix. Yesterday I was in Pittsburgh so I was not able to execute the manual payment, but I will work on doing it right now.
