Hi Inaba, is there any parameter should be changed for miners?  My hashrate is down by a lot. Tks.

Just another idea: You have a black background on the Account, My Workers etc sites. EXCEPT at the Block Stats. Perhaps you can add a black background there too? So you can read the stats much better. By the way: Even the design differes between Account and My Workers (look at the Links to FAQ, Mobil Worker etc and switch between Account and My W.)

How does that look, NetworkerZ?

Autopayout runs every 15 minutes.  I watched it run just now and it paid out your balance.  I think you were just in the window between payouts.

Is the same account generating the invalid blocks?  All the recent invalid blocks say private.

There are a number of people that have their profile set to private, it's not necessarily all the same person. The last 3 invalid have been found by different people.

Not sure what is up with the rash of invalids though.  We have approximately 90 concurrent connections, it's not like we are short on connections.

Just in reply to the above post:
My "Among other statistical things" means of course the probability of 2 miners generating a block about the same time which is of course totally independent of the pool.
And of course to clarify something that anyone might be thinking (though hopefully not) there is no way for Inaba to take advantage of making an invalid block.
Either the block is valid and everyone (including Inaba) profits from it, or the block is invalid and no one profits from it until the next block.
The person who generated the Invalid can easily check if it was a real block so there would be no reason for any pool to pretend it was an Invalid
Aside: well easily if they use cgminer, I'm not sure how other miner programs notify you of block, but cgminer does with the block hash (I wrote that code )

Edit: yes of course this does fall directly into the area of bitcoin that is 'random probability'

I just recently started mining a bit at your pool, and I do have one question..

I understand the double geometric scoring system, and I love the idea of it...

I am curious, though, why my prop-diff is quite often negative.  I'm not starting and stopping the rig, so I'm hashing continuously.  Shouldn't I be at 0 or higher?  What would cause me to get paid less than my share (proportional) if I'm not 'hopping' or taking breaks in mining?

Well according to Meni who designed DGM there should be no loss of BTC if you do switch your miner on and off ... or hop.
Just no gain either.

If you've started recently what you're seeing is probably your score building up. Your score starts at 0 and as you continue mining it increases until it reaches an equilibrium (which changes if the pool's total hashrate changes). So at first you'll receive less than proportional, in equilibrium it will be roughly the same, and if you quit at any time your score will gradually decrease to 0 and you will keep receiving rewards for some time.
