Give-me-ftc Pool Thread, Come in and say Hi!!!
-
Thought I would create a thread for anyone else currently mining with us or are interested in using give-me-ftc. Say hi and post what you are running for rigs in the pool if you want. Ask questions or do whatever…just want to see who on here is also active with the pool.
Hi I am RIPPEDDRAGON and I have been mining over at give-me-ftc for almost 2 weeks now and mined with fc.dontmine.me before that. My main worker is running 2x 7970s at 680khs and I have up to 3 other rigs adding in a few khs via cpu mining. My shares may look low but the server decided to set my stratum diff to 256 and my hash rate swings wildly between 1000 and 1900 in the pool.
I know I have seen a few of you active here on the forums, stop in and say hi!

[/quote]haha I don’t know but we had a hell of a run yesterday…well above my est FTC for the day. I cant believe that I have only found 1 block… :( sorry guys
I hope that I can get a few blocks found soon and stop mooching off you guys!
-
Yeah, I noticed the same in my wallet! Was pleasantly surprised.
-
Yeah I can’t complain about that. It was pretty dry there for the first of the week but getting better. Now asdf is finding all the blocks. LOL

Pool hash picking up steam 32Mh/s!
-
just got my first payout from the pool. very happy with that. i noticed that one of my miners went down during the day. those graphs are EXTREMELY helpful.
-
I think the stratum server stoped responding for 10 min (alert was delayed for some rason). I got it back up as soon as i saw teh big DOWN alert. Workign on some more stats for the webpage today. Should hopefully have them in soon :D
-
I’ve been mining on give-me-ftc an give-me-ltc since i started mining crypto. I found them to be the most reliable and fast pools i can connect to from my location.
Great work with uptime, confirmation counts and maintenance serraz, thanks. Overall outstanding stuff, glad to be a part of it.

SO let us know what the pool is seeing right now. I am so confused… I am fighting the good fight against an apparent attack, but the pool is not updating with payout or share information. I found a couple of blocksjaminhard

yes it seems to be under attack but not the pool, the whole network. i saw a few comment on btce trollbox about it. also the official stats page is down. hopefully it will return to normal soon. -
What causes “unknown” as a block finder?

This seems like one of those pools where you don’t get the shares you should. I’ve been mining for over an hour now and I have 1.3 FTC.

serraz is operating both give-me-ftc and give-me-ltc pools. I had almost no problems and got all my payments when expected. Maybe you need to read what PPLNS is and how it works? Let it run for 24h and it will start coming in at a steady rate. Let it mine and it will even out on shares and rounds and you will get what your calculated FTC-day is. If you stop mining, you may get payments even a few hours later as your shares are still there. -

I’ve run PPLNS before for days back when FTC started and never got close to what I was supposed to. Coinotron is down now, so I had to switch to something. -
maybe check out some other pools and see which one you like.

[/quote]Tried them. I just don’t like PPLNS - it seems you get shafted. -
I must admit, when i used to mine ltc on PPLNS i always fell short (i tried loads of pools) so i moved to PPS with litecoinpool.org and hit my target consistently. PPS kinda removes the luck factor though - you’ll never wake up to a pleasant surprise of more than expected coins.
-
well i come back after camping for a weekend and so much happened…I went from top 5 in the pool for the last 3 weeks to almost 100… I hope we can get people to stay. The 7% fee currently is a bit high and I hope that drops soon.
-
Good info about D2. I had not seen that one, and just checked it.
I’ll point my pc there for now. I also like that it’s an updated front end to the pool backend, not just a copy/paste/install/run job…
which seems that it will let me use my tablet to view it when not at the pc. The normal pool front end is a pita to navigate on a touchscreen thing with flyout menus that don’t remain open before closing as you go to click on something lol
god i need a drink :( whod be sober

I’m still mining in this pool but I don’t know if I’m mining forked coins. Stats show 3 GH/s :o network hashrate but I don’t know where all that hash power is hiding. Anyone?
[/quote]If they where forked you would see by orphend and a fair few amount of them Also pool needs to update client new release out too.
But I do not like the status unknown mined last amount of blocks is a weird one of if you ask me.
