Lex Pool (A rewritten pool based on uray source)
-
https://nodejs.org/download/release/v5.12.0/ this version appears to be the latest that can run the pool with its current coding. Change in the coding as listed above will be needed to run on any newer version of nodejs
-
pool is up at burst.btfg.space
Be grateful if anyone can do some quick mining there and tell me if everything appears to be functioning normally :)
-
Will tested, so would be lovely to test my too.

-
@MrWho No problem, Ill test it out on my other machine for ya :)
-
@MrWho
Attempting to mine at your pool crashes my miner!
-
@MrWho yup, works!-)
my own "egopool" unfortunately does not! my dl confirmations are a few thousand years long!-(
-
@nixxda thanks for testing both, nixxda are you joined over my ip or url? I will look at your pool if you wanna send.
-
@MrWho url. (both me!)
I've shut mine down for today. bin müde!-)
-
<.< I want one of those nice index pages with the local and global chat!!! :P
-
You can bind it with javascript very quickly. :)
-
may be easy but i barely have time to sit down and do the work i need to lol.
Though I would be willing to pay someone to make a nicer front page for me. If anyone is interested, let me know a price
-
I have just discovered that the script will send coin to a hardcoded address.
You should comment out these line, unless you are ok of this action
bust-pool-payment.js
This is how it should look like once you commented out:

@Jumper
Thats the code for sending part of the mining fee to the developer (lex) for further development. Its easier to turn it off in your config file (set devfee = false)that being said, thanks for finding where it is hard coded! later I want to be able to change it still give the dev a bit, but less than 1% (as I play to run my pool at less than 1% fee :)

@Valareos thanks for pointing that out man. i wish people would take the time to read the post. ive edited the first one now to include this so it wont be missed. its saddened me that someone would openly call out that im a thief. then modify the code that gives me an incentive to continue working on this project. which is currently less than 25 coins per block and getting smaller each month.
the amount of headache not having my release due to ghost blocks and forks would far exceed this cost.
comments like those make me lose motivation for a project i worked on solidly for 3 months till 4 am. whilst juggling a full time job. and just shows how far some people are willing to go. i was deliberately staggering releases to this source just to test the waters. and having the risk of losing my credibility from a mistake and not just that but openly screenshotting and posting it in 2 places on the forums.
i dont know whether to drop this project or continue with it now.
-
Dont lose faith. And to be fair most people dont read past the first post anyway. unless htey looking for a specific fix to a problem.
-
@Lexicon Please continue your work - having pool code options is important.
I've commented a number of times in the other thread.
Two suggestions - document the setting in the readme, and make the donation percentage configurable.
If the pool operators decide to disable the devfee, I'll assist you with development funds.
-
@Lexicon , please don't let this die. You brought technology never seen before with this pool. A few setbacks should not be enough reason for you to give it up. You spent way to much time on it. And if anyone calls you anything except an excellent coder, please do tell them to kiss my furry ass!
-
I got a scaly ass they can kiss too

thanks for the support guys. @haitch whilst you were writing that i was updating the wiki for the github post to have these details. in the versoin i have on my laptop it already has the code written in for a variable fee. i just havn't got around to applying it to the public github release.
the amount of work to get anything remotely done on a pool when you have no miners is extremely difficult and what people dont understand is during that period when i was fixing ghost blocks trying to sort them out i ended up losing 2.5k coins every day or so due to it payout out on the ghost block and not having enough balance for other miners. along with the 50k burst giveaway i did to attract members. and nothing i get from the pool would even remotely cover the vps cost at this stage due to it.
all the testing i do is done on my live pool so when i have a stable release i can then put it on the public github. i do this so you guys dont have to have the headache.
if @Jumper messaged me asking about it without shooting his pistols from the hip i would of told him this and even offered to give the coins back. just send me the address and ill send them over. they probably wont total to much as its about 22.5 coins every block and i havnt seen many transactions other than my own pool and someone who set up a subscription to me to support the pool.
-
@Lexicon what if i was to offer 100k reward for damage repairs that you had to support with the ghost blocks and giveaway, as well as pledge to pay for your VPS each and every month?
You're going through an emotional stage now, and we're here for you. Let us help, let me help. I will support the cost of this pool and hosting, as well as start plotting asap and get at least 2-3 TB of my own to it (i don't mine but i'll make an exception)
Deal?
