I'm having trouble connecting with poclbm. It works sometimes so I know it's not me. In fact, I have a miner running connected right now. When I try and start them up, it's hit or miss. At one point, I had all three miners up but seem to be hitting a run of bad luck on getting two of them up. Symptom is, it reports "no response to getwork, using as stratum" (as it should) then "Failed to subscribe". pings to stratum.bitcoin.cz complete 100%. Is there something I'm missing?

Hi, Slush Is there anything can be done with pool-hopping on different luck periods? It's kinda annoying patiently waiting through two days of bad luck (down to 65%) to see the pool's share grow almost twice when luck goes up to 120%. Or is this a normal situation that I don't catch up with?

the pool is already anti-hop as much as it can be...nothing really slush can do about it...

How do you know people are hopping? It looked like hash rate did not drop (or not much anyways) during bad luck day.

I'm still getting the "No connections could be made because the target machine actively refused it" error in guiminerIt's only when I use it through my vpn, which I consider essential for using the internet. Why is my VPN fucking this up?I downloaded the latest guiminer before I made this post and am still getting the error.edit: it just randomly out of the blue decided to work after a restart. This happens over and over though. Any ideas on how to fix it?

According to http://blockchain.info/pools when Slush pool entered into good luck its market share has grown almost twice. In the same time 50btc has lost about a half of its share. Hashing rate at Slush has grown about 0,5Th in a day or two.I understand that blockchain data is not exact. But it seems like there are too many coincidences in a very short period of time.

blockchain.info's graph is based on blocks, not actual hashing speed. If the pool has good luck, it will be larger on the chart. If it has bad luck, it will be smaller. That has absolutely no indication of pool hopping (at least using that chart).

Try using stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 manually instead of using the slush choice from the drop down.I think its using a the proxy/old getwork url?
