    BitCoin Utopia: Heads up!

    First off, I think the RSS feed was broken when they changed their URL. Fix please?

    Second: They injected some new kind of tasks:

    Hi!

    Now I have made some workunits for terracoin mining. You'll distuinguish the terracoin workunits from bitcoin workunits by the letters TRC in the workunit name "wu_TRC_V5_100_"...

    PS. Here you can see the hashrate and terracoins mined for Vault #5: http://p2pool.org/trcstats.php?addre...fRfzJCXi7mqkBS

    The problem: They take 4-6 times as long to run, but pay the same as the normal tasks. So if you are concerned about credits, this is a problem. Also, these TRC tasks use the same app, so you can't avoid them via app selection.

    I am trying hard to be the first to 100M, so I can't just stay away until this gets resolved. But if you are not worried about things like that, and you are worried about credits, then stay away for now.

    Thanks for the update- I updated my drivers yesterday and made a minor hardware change, then noticed WU times went up 6x! I thought I'd really screwed something up-

    I'm going to finish out my 5 million on some 20 Share work units and roll off until they figure this out. I had one WU go almost 13 hours last night; most are taking 90 to 180 minutes where they used to be 20 to 30.

    I would have liked to have gotten to 10 million, but I'm backing off for now. Thanks Z for the heads up on the change, I thought it was looking a little strange.

    Re: BitCoin Utopia: Heads up!

    My AMD Box's are just Single GPU Box's, have the Wu's running on 2 Box's okay now, just the 20 Share Wu's though, trouble is now I can't get any new Wu's to either Box ...

    I'm 22k away from the 25 Million Mark & can't get work ... ... According to the Server Status they only have the 100 Share Wu's left right now, I'm not running them though because of the credit's & they error out on me anyway ... I just tried 3 more of the 100 Share Wu's & all 3 Erred at about the 5-6 Second mark ...

    Re: BitCoin Utopia: Heads up!

    I'm running 2 5850s with Catalyst 13.4 on a Vista x64 machine - it currently has a 100 Share WU hanging. I probably won't get to it until Monday morning, so there goes a weekend of crunching for that GPU! I should have known better to leave it running BU with all the issues over the last few days, but I wanted to see if the 100 Share credit issue was fixed. My bad-

    And of course, at this point, I can't get the home.php to pull up to edit my profile. Even the Message boards produce just a blank screen in Firefox and an error in IE 9.
