Nice front end guys 8) I do really mean the website! LOL
Love the graph in overview, Could we have a clicky on the network hashrate on the graph so we can see how we (the pool) fair against the whole network?
Can the donors be in ascending order?
What do the little stars mean next to my username? :o
Big up!

[/quote]Thanks for the comments! ;)
Squall1066, you can click the top of columns to sort the donations lists. :)
As for the clicky pool stats, it’s on the roadmap… Watch this space.
And remember to spread the word about the pool and help us increase the hash rate! ;D

[size=14pt][color=red]Announcement[/color][/size]
[img]http://www.lasvegasgiftstoreonline.com/catalog/32119 LV fireworks mouse pad.jpg[/img]
Me and Nutnut got together to start up an PPS pool some time ago.
This was initially to give people an alternative if they wanted to go the easy controlled way.
Now we see more pools adapting to the new safer feathercoin (ACP), more PPS pools pops up allmost daily.So now we needed to think, what would make Nut2Pools special, how could we evolve further to bring our loyal miners some extra benefits. How could we make Nut2Pools a greater experience for people?
Our idea was, why not have internal gambling, where people could first mine ftc, then if they felt like it. Use it to play some games on the site.
This is where we decided to aquire ftcgames.eu, However this was just the expencive sprincles on top of the cake. The Core goal was to aquire Ukmark, for those who have not been around on the forum alot, he is the guy behind ftcgames, he is also the guy that have made the SMS Wallet!
He is now a solid partner with Nut2Pools.
The future is bright, Watch this space!

The success of any coin is availability, We need it on as many exchanges as possible.
Problem is, there isn’t many :o

[/quote]I dont agree actually=)
We need usability of the coin UP, when that happens. Exchanges would want to add it without us pushing it on em.
I have high hopes for coming features. At the pool we will try to expand the gambling part of it.
Also have some ideas regarding accesibilty, but will not say anything about it until i can see the feasibility level of it. -

[/quote]I see :o sort of, I see alot of coins doing well (relatively speaking amongst other alt coins) just because it’s available, Sort of chicken and egg, I see the other side of the story to you, Why am I mining FTC? Because I like the way the script works in relation to BTC and I can see the potential of a good crypto currency down the road, I believe people will use the coin once they know more about it, and generate a shopping community around it.
I guess “There is no knowledge that is not power” so I’m guessing more blogs and write-ups?
I like the gambling idea, I like to have a flutter from time to time.
On a plus, I found my first block for the team! 94082 8)

Well - Looks like 200MH/s is a thing of the past!!!
Thanks to all our miners for trusting us with their hash power, we really are honoured!
In the short time that we have been running, you have helped us become one of the biggest dedicated FTC pools out there!
Now let’s get to chasing down 300MHs!! ;D

Our first batch of games is out!!!
Now available from the pool. Two of the «old» classics has been implemented (head&tails and lucky7), and also a brand new slot machine with jackpot of over [size=14pt][color=red]1000ftc![/color][/size]
All of which has 100% provable fairness!This is just the beginning of a fruitfull partnership between UKMark,Nutnut and svennand
Please, do give us feedback!, both regarding current games, and suggestion for other ones! -

[size=18pt][color=red][b]UPDATED - US stratum servers are now online.[/b][/color][/size] Please would our esteemed miners on the other side of the pond point their miners to “stratum+tcp://us.nut2pools.com:5565” as the primary pool and “stratum+tcp://uk.nut2pools.com:5565” as a secondary/failover.

The slots are great! I had a few spins, I got a problem with acquiring the address (win7/Firefox) I cant highlight it as it selects the whole section and deselects when page checks for deposit, I had to right click on address and “open in new page” so the address was in the address bar.
Clicking on it does not copy to clipboard, shows a clipboard of the address in the lower left but goes as soon as I move my mouse.
-
Changed to the US pool. Might help with the 200MS+ lag I was having.
I’ve had my equipment over at someone’s house for the past week so I’ve been able to run the whole time. Been great, pretty reliable. Actually getting to experience mining as one should with 24/7 op.

[/quote]When you click the address it’s supposed to open your wallet and paste the address straight in to send box along with a default amount all ready for you to hit send. For some reason though it doesn’t work for some users. :'(
Can you chech that you have the latest client? There we’re apparently 2* 6.4.4 clients. one with support for ftc url and one without. May be worth redownloading/installing.

[/quote]That was the plan. We decided to host in Dallas as that’s fairly central and has good links back to the UK where the core DB server is hosted. Where are you based and whats your ping times?
[color=red]Also, can you all please ensure you have fail-overs setup (to another one of our servers (uk/us/jp) as I’m doing a lot of juggling and tweaking, so i will be restarting various sections of the system. We have multiple everything so as long as you have fail-overs configured, you should have 0 downtime.[/color]
Thanks for mining with us and feel free to spread the word! ;D

[color=purple]***PLEASE READ*** ***PLEASE READ*** ***PLEASE READ*** ***PLEASE READ*** ***PLEASE READ***[/color]
Can anyone that has their miners pointing to ftcpps.nut2pools.com:5565 please redirect them to either…stratum+tcp://uk.nut2pools.com - if you are a UK/EU miner
stratum+tcp://us.nut2pools.com - if you are a US based miner
stratum+tcp://jp.nut2pools.com - if you are a JP or AU miner[b]Don’t forget to configure another server/location as your secondary pool too![/b]
The ftcpps.nut2pools.com stratum server will be shut down soon to facilitate the migration to our new servers, DB clusters and DDoS protection and in a bid to reduce the already [b]EXTREMELY LOW[/b] number of stale shares (I now get 0 stales from the new “uk.nut2pools.com” server!).
Unfortunately CGminer won’t connect to a new ip addresses once it’s started so even if i re-point the DNS - cgminer will still latch on to the old server until it’s restarted. :'(Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience

We now have stratum server on 3 different continents, and a fully resilient system! With PLENTY of room to grow ;D
