tross Burstcoin Pool

[tross]

Right now 200 burst is about $2.50 and the raffle is a guaranteed 8k burst ($102) and has risen to 9.6k ($123) and would raise more if people participate

raffle has 3 winners and nothing will be taken out. Raffle will be reconfigured next month cause assets didnt work to fund it.

I was trying to read about the raffle instructions on your pool page. One entry is 200 coins, but are we only allowed one entry? I bought in for one. :)

[Gibsalot]

@Propagandalf yes 1 entry per and have to be mining on tross pool

i am back home from my trip picked up another 7TB from micro center wile i was in town. almost got my internal filled to max ... need to pick up another PCIe to SATA exp card to add more inside, as well as two 5-1/4 bay HDD mounting rack's. have 1 rack that a normal HDD will not fit in poor design on the case need to find a slim or just stick a laptop drive in it. and added my first USB3.0 HDD dock :)

not sure why they are upside down ..... if you click on them it shows them right side up lol

My thermaltake Duetx just died but my 2 8tb drives didn't get damaged. You will know when it goes when the first week your drives loose connection and then the mb/s write speeds that BlagoMiner shows will read 5mb/s. The power light doesn't light up anymore and I can here any drive plugged into it spin up. Next week I'll open it up and send pictures

tross found the reason our pools are lagging & freezing! Current rounds and the console fought
to finish first so I removed Current Round! Apparently as the pool got larger both in miners and TB the limit
to the display code was met. So a couple things could happen pool html reconfigured with code that will work
or provide a popup for Current round. Until I find a workaround or dive into php I will provide a popup link under the center console!
Maybe better this way lol In any case clock dont stop, links can be clicked and chat can be typed chat when a block comes or been won!

7day till raffle dont forget your pay the fee!

@Gibsalot trackball FTW :D

[Gibsalot]

@Daforce I love my track ball lol, an its gota be the original Track man style lol

[tross]

Last August I dreamed of this day but never though I would see it. All the hard work with Lexicon really paid off.
Sure pools will change rank and maybe we drop down but we succeeded with our goal. To improve the mining experience
by being fair and having great up time. Regardless of what rank we are miners always come first!

Great Job

It seems there is something wrong with pool share counting.
Around block 364844 pool crashed(?) or at least i could not access it from different places.
And after that (poll came back at block 364846), counted share table looked like in screenshot (screenshot was taken around block 364850). .

It seems a lot of miners (but not all wtf?) has their share count zeroed at crash.

[tross]

ok I restarted all the severs at or around that block. Sure enough what happened I try to avoid but have no control over. Right after I changed pool wallets we got a block. So what does that all mean?

During that winning round if you had a good dl (over target) then your shares got converted to burst. But if that wasnt the case then your shares are held over till next block. Normally the round number is how many blocks since your last payout.

http://burstpool.ddns.net/images/def.jpg is old but works the same.

So no shares are lost!

[Roiltoj8]

@tross It looks to me shares were lost. Just before restart happened I (V8WG-....) had much higher (mostly from deadline 345 for block 364816, it was long round according to pool) share count and looking at pending balance (site does not show it now but data is accessible) they was not credited.
Non blaming anyone but if it is as I described it should be fixed at least for future payments.

EDIT: Since burstpool.ddns.net has very high deadline limit, 'how many blocks since your last payout' (to pending balance I assume) should be equal for almost every miner (like for example right now). This is not the case in screenshot.

[tross]

Normally pool looses nothing but lests say I stopped sever before it recorded a share then yes it is lost. I try to restart on a long block after the timer hit 2min. That way all the shares are recorded to json. Ok I may of restarted too soon Sorry but you know in the first half of every month I have a Burst bash. This next one I will be sending out 20k burst so I think any shares that were lost will be made up!

The system works if you got paid it goes to 1 if you did not then it will not change. Unless the difficulty reaches 5tb my pool will everyone can be different.

[tross]

I can also add if someone leaves the pool it takes 60 rounds before its gone.
