Nice, once I replace my graphics card to get a good hash rate I will have to donate if the option is available. ;D
I would love to see a faucet that had a pool that i could join dedicated in to just mining for the
faucet site and donating directly that way.
I am also thinking about starting a FTC service to donate to miners who need hardware upgrades.
[/quote]You can always mine for any pool and use the faucet address as the payout address. You can even set it up with a “round-robin” system within CGMiner to alternate between your own address and the faucet’s address. For example, mine for yourself 12 hours, then mine for the faucet 12 hours, and keep rotating like that automatically.

Thanks for the encouragement and confirmation of payment. Owlie, I believe you got the highest payout as you frequented the faucet quite often (without abuse, thanks ;)). According to the site stats most visitors came from USA, UK, and Finland. There were some visits from Australia and central Europe.7thpitbull, if you would like to donate please sent ftc 6qm83CDJvYgGhoV9jB95PFu5wDnXM5UR4J and not my personal wallet (in signature). Hope everyone is enjoying the faucet.
[/quote]No problem, it’s great what you are doing. I would advise some sort of timer (I know you’ve already got this planned). It would be good if you enter an address and it says either successful request or you have already been paid please come back in 17 (or whatever) hours. Not only would this be good for stopping abuse but I forgot the time I had submitted the previous day and didn’t want to break the 24hr rule. :)

[/quote]I’m using only the date right now, time is used only for successive submits. So it isn’t exactly a 24hr rule. Once I get some time this week I’ll be working on the new site. I appreciate all of the suggestions, they’re all really good!

Cool so don’t have to be spot on with the time, just once a day only. ;)
Faucets are great for newbies and FTC needs more of this. I want to mine but can’t afford any hardware yet and running a CPU on my laptop it’ll overheat so quick and get about 14kh/s. I have been supporting FTC by using BTC faucets and earning sites (coinchat, bitvisitor, abitback, bitcoinget, ect) and then trading this BTC for FTC via BTC-e. I’ve managed to acquire 42 FTC doing this (plus 1 FTC from d2’s BitcoinTalk give-away). It would be great for there to be more FTC faucets and ways to earn FTC in the future, to get people started. :)
If I do get into mining I may open a faucet myself. I know a little html. Unfortunately finances can’t stretch to buying a desktop pc at the minute. Still it’s definitey a possibility in the future.
Anyway thanks again and really well done. A great thing for the community. :)

[/quote] Will do, looks like at the end of next month I will be able to help you out. (found a card that fits my price range) -

[/quote]For your faucets, if you weren’t already aware, I have an excellent [url=http://coinfaucets.tk]faucet rotator[/url] for easy use. The two highest paying ones are also at the front, and the rotator keeps up with all of the timers automatically. This is just for BTC at the moment though (I will expand into other currencies as more faucets arise).

[/quote] Never thought about that, thanks. Once I replace my GTX 460 I will have to get that rolling…lets face it even overclocked with a 114 KHash/s output is not much of anything even with an extra 28 Khash/s from my cpu. -
received .011 FTC, thanks!
-
Next payout scheduled for tomorrow when I get back from the city. I’m going on vacation next Friday for a couple of weeks but I will leave the faucet running and payout 2 weeks later. So what does that mean? Payouts will be tomorrow and then the second Sunday after as I will be back by then.

Payouts sent, check your wallets! Next round is a 2week round!
