Load Balancing, important current and upcoming changes to Pool deadlines.
-
As you know, we've been trying to get people to load-balance the pools, to break-up the power of Ninja, and make Burst mining more rewarding for everyone. Well, Crowetic has been in communication with the co-ordinator of the large miners on Ninja, and they've agreed to spread across three of the pools, if we make changes to the pools. We've agreed to those changes.
The changes that are being made are to the acceptable pool deadlines - the very long reward times accepted by the pools other than Ninja cause too many nonces to be submitted and too much system lag to be acceptable for the large miners.
So, as of now - the deadline on Ninja has been dropped to 12 hours, pool.burst-team.us and pool.burstcoin.biz have been dropped to 14 days each. pool.burstcoin.eu has not, and will not be changed.
As of 8AM EST tomorrow burst-pool.us will be dropping to a 2 day deadline and pool.burstcoin.biz will be dropping to 4 days. Again pool.burst.coin.eu will not be affected by these changes.
The MINIMUM recommended capacity to mine at the pools is as follows:
burst.ninja - 60TB
pool.burst-team.us -15TB
pool.burstcoin.biz -8TB
pool.burstcoin.eu - Anything.You can mine on any pool with a higher recommended amount than you have, but it will result in you missing deadlines and earning shares you would on one of the other pools. Additionally, it's possible some of these deadlines could be lowered further.
Additionally, I'm looking at putting a max acceptable cap on pool.burstcoin.eu to protect it from a large miner dominating the pool. Any miner over a to be decided capacity (probably in the 20-50 TB range), will be asked by blockchain message to move to another pool. If they don't/won't - their IP will be banned from the pool.

Edit (Blago):
Pool.burstcoin.de - 1 Tb (targetDeadline = variable, ajusting to 1 Tb)
Pool.burstcoin.it - 0.5 Tb (targetDeadline = 2592000, or 30 days)Edit (Haitch):
The new Deadlines are now in effect - if you're not getting Deadlines on a regular basis, you're advised to move pools.Edit: mea culpa - when updating the deadlines on the pools, I made a mistake on .eu and set it 7 days, instead of 70 days. Thanks to @stupendelious for pointing out my error - it has been resolved.

@haitch I am in mine burst-team pool with 5TB, with all these changes in the pools, I always get to the mine burst-team pool or have to change pool ??
-
@burstcoinPT - you can still mine any pool you wish. We're never going to force you out of a pool, unless it the .eu pool because you have too much capacity. Just be aware that with 5TB, you'll be missing DL's and shares that you would on .biz or .eu. The values above are recommended, not enforced, but you're probably going to end up doing better in a pool that fits your size.

I am mining on.eu but can not get the reward setting to take

image url)How do I change this I tried 3 times on the burst wallet
-
@haitch i win 250 to 300 burstcoin in pool.burst team, can i win more coins mining in another pool???
-
@Spyderss23 goto https://wallet.burst-team.us/rewardassignment.html - ignore the first two fields, put your passphrase in the third and BURST-7Z2V-J9CF-NCW9-HWFRY in the fourth and hit submit. You should get 4 or 5 lines of incomprehensible codes back/ Wait four blocks, then you're good to go.
-
@burstcoinPT - you earned those coins when the pool was accepting deadlines up to around 45 days, as of tomorrow it'll be two days. So you'll probably not get deadlines submitted that you previously would.
What is the total size of your plots ?
-
trying to move to eu. its not in my pool list could you tell me how to do the awards assign and pool list thing plz
-
i tried changing got a code then it took the burst so not sure if it did it or not. waiting the four blocks now
-
@protozz To do the change: goto https://wallet.burst-team.us/rewardassignment.html - ignore the first two fields, put your passphrase in the third and BURST-7Z2V-J9CF-NCW9-HWFRY in the fourth and hit submit. You should get 4 or 5 lines of incomprehensible codes back/ Wait four blocks, then you're good to go.
To mine on that pool, where the list of names are, just simply type pool.burstcoin.eu, then start mining.
