After 4 hours of unsuccessfully farting around with megacoin-qt, and somehow getting credentials wrong whilst copy and pasting everything, all I have to say is, "Nice uninstall icon."  Hope all you early adapters enjoy your mansions, I'm going back DGC.  Following Baritus' instructions, soloing DGC was simple, but Megacoin made me feel pretty retarded.  Future developers and coin shills, if you want your coins to do well, make a guide to help make mining your coin accessible to the less technical miners.                    

cool pool! let us know when you start "finding" blocks.

Any pools for this?

some funny stuff going one here. not in the way that I'm amused, more like funny business.

your pool seems to be a scam more like it

If this is true that p2pool doesn't work, then supply of coins will be severely limited. Time to hold on to any mined so far? Some clarification would be nice.

Not a scam...

The source does not seem to be working properly...


Not a single block found yet.

debug.log does not seem to be showing any major errors. Not sure whats going on. Another pool I setup today is cutting through blocks http://alpha.miningpool.co...

Working on it.

Yes - there is definitely something wrong... The source code had been changed to essentially only work with Windows - I changed it to compile on linux but it appears it doesn't work...

Source code for megacoind

Thank you!! 

I actually edited irc.cpp - but must have made an error somewhere - your solution seems much more sensible - recompiling now..
