The testnet isn't a real pool, all that hash is just for testing purposes, it is not going to become the real version of the coin.
I am trying to put some hash on the testnet as well. I'll ask Kracko about the issues with connectivity once he wakes up, I know he was working LATE into the night last night trying to get things ironed out. We are seeing a lot of light at the end of the tunnel and things have been progressing nicely. Thank you all for your contributions towards the testnet, I am happy to see that the community can come together during this time of need!

Steven@Ultracoin.netYes, thanks tons for the hash guys. You've been awesome. This has been very helpful.
So far Digishield - 10 block average looks like the best candidate. It is set up to retarget every block, adjustments will be no more than in increments of 8% up and 16% down. It averages out over the last 10 blocks, allowing it to be fairly flexible with inconsistent hash rates. If there's a hit and run on us, we'll recover at a decent rate. I've also implemented the same retarget on the staking, but with its original 20 second spacing.
I'll be resetting the testchain and test database back again soon, so we can test transition to the new retarget starting from a higher diff block. If you leave your miners aimed at the pool, I'll have everything restored, including your pool workers, within 5 minutes or so after it goes down.
