Timer has restarted for me as well. Its now has 22 Hours left. It would be nice to get an official launch time.

This look like one of the attackers. Notice what happens at block 52423.

I’m afraid we have to act quickly. Either with advanced checkpointing or something else. People start to panic.

I agree. It looks like the attacker has done something to the block chain to lower the difficulty and is proceeding with a 51% attack. Lower difficulty means confirmations are faster, therefore attacker could potentially cash in before the exchanges can react.

block explorer is showing low difficulty and blocks being generated within seconds of each other. even if the stats page isn’t reporting correctly, the block explorer should be and what it is showing is truly disturbing.

Something is very very wrong. Re-target time is negative and keeps increasing in negative value. Does this mean it will never reach 0 hence it will never re-target?

Edit: 69,505,175 KHash/s :o looks like another attack?

Trollbox is starting talk of an attempt to 51% us again. One of the pools is reporting 3 orphans over the last hour… an attempt to sabotage the Oxford meetup?

9 Blocks orphaned over at fcpool.com

pcie risers. You would make a lot of money if you could design rig cases that are easy to use. Currently people have to build their own. This is not always the easiest task or the best looking.

+1 on both suggestions. You could sell modified milk crates to the mining community.

Also maybe USB sticks for OS, case fans, and PSU’s

I made it!

810Kh/s

I still have some optimising to go, but for those interested I achieved this by disconnecting the crossfire bridge and using the ATI cleaning tool to clear off all drivers.
I then tried many variants of drivers all of which caused cgminer to crash on opening with the exception of 12.8
Finally I was able to crank the intensity up to 18 and the cards have been slogging away for an hour now with zero errors.

Thanks to those who suggested fixes and I wish everyone else lots of luck.

I’m really happy with my Gigabyte HD6950. I purchased it second hand from ebay for $100 AUD and hasn’t missed a beat. I currently have engine set to 955 and memory set to 1250 and its cranking out 470kh/s. Its also running surprisingly cool with temps maxing at about 73c in open air with a 25c ambient. This highest Ive had it is 475kh/s but drivers eventually crash.
