"wafflepool" lol...

This is great; glad these stats are being published.

[ckoeber]

Balance has flat lined for an hour now. WTF is going on? 

man relax, its just that the stats are frozen.

''middlecoin.com published data: 1 hour ago''

Cool, where do you see ''middlecoin.com published data: 1 hour ago'' ?

just use this site: http://middlecoin.info

add your adress and than check on the top news feed

No, even there the stats are frozen.

The stats are frozen there as it is dependent on Middlecoin. But middlecoin.info (the stats site) will tell you the last time middlecoin (the main pool) updated their stats at the top of the page.

Where are you getting these stats from? Are you load balancing each server on one of your rigs or something? Are you taking into account that the payout people ACTUALLY receive is ~3.4% less than total pool earnings?

I ask because these numbers are quite different than my numbers. Based on my personal payouts. I'll share my numbers in a bit.

You're showing ~.014/MH for yesterday.
My numbers say about .009.

and mine is 0,07

also efficiency is always bad. about %30 and %60

coz servers are being down too much and getting rejected too much so this kills efficiency. coz its not stable. i will try that wafflepool thing.

[caution]

Payouts are getting worse day by day. Since there is autoredirection to the nearest server my profits barely move. I guess its time to leave middlecoin too. For now.

I switched to http://wafflepool.com and i have not looked back.

much better?

more than better !

So you are saying yesterday's wafflepool payment (0.00910775 BTC / 1MH ) was better than middlecoin's? Or the average? Or.... 

about what I got yesterday with 3 Mh/s

[fyff]

I think the numbers are a bit high aswell. I think I got like 12.x BTC/Mhash on USeast

[sgsdebruijn]

Middlecoin  @middlecoinpool  
The Amsterdam server is down. It might be a while until it's up again.

Yep stable, djiesus how come a lotof servers crashes all the time?

I think H20 took the system down for maintenance; part of making the pool more stable.

yeah right

[eMiz0r]

No, I want the pool to be 100% stable. It's plenty big enough to work now, adding tons of little miners who don't have 50MH each just causes a lot of server traffic.

As the owner of a brick-and-mortar company that does work for businesses, as opposed to individuals, and mostly decent-sized corporations, there is something to this big miner vs small miner thing.

If I were to start a pool, honestly, I'd probably design it to attract larger miners (10MH+) and discourage smaller ones.  Providing support to a small number of large customers is SO much easier and more lucrative than a ton of small ones.

Easier? Hell yeah, definately. More risky? Also.

As the owner of an hostingcompany with tens of thousands individual customers (and also SOME large corps), we've had little or no problem with the recession/crisis/economic meltdown. Instead, we've grown almost twice the size in the last few years.

My point being: when you dedicate yourself to a small pool of large hashrates and get a lot of issues as middlecoin has right now, you wouldn't lose 1 or 2 GH/s as it did in the last few days, but you'd lose a lot more then that. Just as it wouldn't heart our profits too much when we get a big interruption of our services due to lets say... a DDoS attack. Better for the long term in my opinion, but I would understand when you disagree.

I switched to wafflepool yesterday and get 0,02% rejects. Don't know yet if it is the same or more profitable, but I'm gonna try it out for a couple of days.

[zneww]

Still kinda mindblowing middlecoin still has these problems.

That's also my experience on the useast server too. I am not sure where these guys are getting the 0.014 averages. It's insane.

yesterday's payout was 0.033BTC and i have 4,4mh/s rig.

that means 0,075BTC/mhs

and i see on stats page all the same with me. i see people's hasrate and daily earnings.

this is what my payments look like, as well as the associated BTC/day and BTC/day/MH. includes 5 days averages and all time averages (from mid January)

ok here we go:

[pitobread]

It used to be I would have a nice consistent connection and moderately high rejects and my pay was good.  .035 a day good.

Other than the last big dump of unexchanged I have been .02 a day or less and my connection, stats and middlecoin monitor says it is down even though my miner is working.

I was fine with the problems when I was still getting paid but now I can actually see my profits and stats drop.  I will be checking out my other pool options.

It really does depend on your reject rates. They were low for me (no more than 5%).

Otherwise I 100% agree with all of the complaints and findings. If your miners are either cutting off (from the servers going down) or you have extremely high reject rates (more than 10%) then you can't possibly average more than 0.007 ~ 0.008 Bitcoin per 1 MH/s.

If your reject rate is low then middlecoin WILL beat out those other pools.

hi i have a query I can't find the answer to. One of my miners (on the eu server) keeps telling me

"accepted untracked stratum share from pool 0"

I'm using cgminer 3.7.2, and not using --no-submit-stale

The other miners (also pointing to the eu server) don't, which confuses me since this link (below) suggests it is to do with the server.

http://mining-tips.weebly.com/1/post/2014/01/-accepted-untracked-stratum-share-from-pool-0.html

but that doesn't make any sense, because only one of my miners is doing this and all my miners are pointing to the same server..

Is there something obvious I'm missing ??

[elpsycongro]

h2o is a bad pool operator, very amateur and is stealing. When will you people wakeup? Sounds like you're starting to

Oh i am new here but i heard this guy is a famous troll

I put him on ignore. Life is much easier after that.

Very detailed!

That average is pretty good. On the days that middlecoin is up and running fine your payouts seem to be awesome.

Take out the --no-submit-stale.

Middlecoin counts those.

From the FAQ:

Code:

Any tips for cgminer configuration?

Don't use --no-submit-stale. Stale shares caused by coin switches are actually paid.

How has it been today?
