Nah the friend is fine and his work aswell however he agreed to work with me on this project at the wrong time since only a few days later he had a huge banking contract redoing their backend along with a bunch of contractors.

The only problem since is that he kept saying he will have time available between X and Y but then allways busy with work, that just kept me behind and left me not looking for someone to replace him.

Anyhow, improvements to follow. 

OK all back to normal now, took bit longer than I anticipated, had to monitor to see if its stable and picked up a few problems along the way.

Some of you may have permanently disabled bonuspool since it went up/down multiple times over a short period, if that is the case you will likely have to restart your miners.

Finally cooling off a touch here, but I don't have my miners up till tomorrow, too much draw and I pop too many breakers when its over 100 outside and the air is running.

Server having some network problems so rejects will likely be higher than usual, I am looking into it.

EDIT: Still some problems, I think I located the issue, pool will be back up shortly.

Pool will be down for about an hour, I need to fix this permanently its bugging the hell out of me.

Since the last post things seem to have been resolved nicely, Im sure rest of you would have noticed that aswell.

In other news, I am busy discussing terms and the requirements with a new guy that I am going to hand over the work required for clientside webstats/backend managing all the current "stuff" including some much needed new features and services. As soon as I get him up to speed I will update here, then hopefully not long after the first updates will appear.

Onwards and Upwards.

Cool.... I like stuff Here is a "High Five" !

The webstats search is at times extremely slow and may also timeout due to the way its processing shares and pulling it from DB atm combined with the large sharecount.

All I can say right now is that either try again if it times out or wait for it while its loading, end of payment cycles everyone will get the correct sharecount payout as usual and as long as you submit shares then they will be counted.

Please try to avoid continuously hammering the search, it is what it is right now and hammering it wont make it load faster.

This was the last post about the changes and next payment: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/60717.msg1012934#msg1012934

3. There will be payment cycle correction the first time around running from 8 July 00:00:00 - 17 July 23:59:59 and paid out by the end of Wednesday July 18 which will be the new payment cycle payout day of the week.

4. Once the first correction is done the payment cycle will then run once a week from each Wednesday 00:00:00 - next coming Tuesday 23:59:59 so that payment will allways go out by the Wednesday night. Example for first payment cycle after the correction of payment cycle: July 18 00:00:00 - July 24 23:59:59, paid out by the end of Wednesday July 25. This comes out to a 7day cycle rather than 8days and keeps each consecutive payment date the same.
