Luck hasn't smiled on us this time - I'm hoping we find a block today!
The old software seems to be working ok. Xmr-stak-cpu and CCminer both on port 3102 seem to be fine. Is that a typo in your line though? Is it 3103 for GPU/mid-hashrate?
It picks up once you're in the middle of the PPLNS spread. I ran 180 H/s for the last three days of that last block and pulled about 14 ETN (casual miner here; estimated numbers). I've noticed it takes some time for shares submitted to bleed over to the next blocks here and get established. My first credit was 2 or 3 ETN too when I first started.
It'd probably be the most efficient thing to do.
I'm only making one last pull on smaller coins though - my old gaming PC took 3 months to cash out minimum on Monero at another pool (.10). It's too long to invest without a wallet payment for a hobbyist miner!
But for the actual miners it would make more sense to go where the money is!
It's a bad deal, but still not as bad as a bigger pool I also mine at. Since they had so much hashpower, that block took 9 hours instead of minutes and was almost 4,000%! It's probably better the block hit now rather than the middle of the Electroneum network outage.
Thank you, lol. You take good care of us; no worries!
I had to work fast last time that happened to me. I disabled all Defender modes, copied the files over quick, then whitelisted the main exe file as fast as possible before the live scanner enabled itself again. Defender is fiercer than some viruses I've seen lol.
Still having trouble here too.

Same here. Started as intermittent but I can't connect anymore with xmr-stak. Looks like 25% of the miners / hashrate dropped off for the pool.

It's been a run for sure; thanks for hosting it as long as you have. One or two screw-ups probably could have been overlooked, but that coin just couldn't get it right (not forgivable in a down market!). That and the mobile app doesn't work well... no GUI wallet for PC... Thanks again; on to other coins.
