[*]Difficulty was supposed to go up to 94 but rather went down to 47
[*]give-me-ftc had over 50 blocks found and orphaned. Those blocks now are found by ‘unknown’ and are 100% confirmed after previously being orphaned.
[*]Coinwarz was stating current difficulty at 94
[*]Forum has been DDOSed 4x or more times
[*]Coinotron DDOSed
[*]give-me-ftc DDOSed

Just a few things in the last hour… -
We’ll just keep plugging along and working towards our goals. Once the idiot script kiddies realize that they really aren’t accomplishing anything, they’ll become bored and move on to bothering someone else.

[/quote]give-me-ftc had maybe one or two orphans during the last 12 hours. Which is normal.
The blocks found show “finder=unknown” most probably because of some minor database / display problem. No big deal. All shares are credited as they should. All blocks are valid. Payout works. I’ve been mining on that pool the last 12 hours.

Coinwarz was stating current difficulty at 94
[/quote]For about 5 minutes before they corrected it. So what?

Forum has been DDOSed 4x or more times
[/quote]Great: Someone puts a lot of effort in attacking the website. But how does that affect the coin? Not at all!

Coinotron DDOSed
[/quote]Only their frontend. Miners have been working correctly. Now their frontend is back up again.

give-me-ftc DDOSed
[/quote]Only their frontend. And only for a very short time. Miners have been working correctly. Now their frontend is back up again.

All these attacks will do in the end is strengthen the coin and network as a whole. Hopefully we can retain some of this mining power as the diff goes back up soon.

Just a few things in the last hour…
[/quote]It was not supposed to be 94. That was based on 60 blocks. 47 is based on 504 blocks and it was correct because that was the 2.5 minute block target.
Coinwarz based it on the 60 block prediction.
DDoS is desperation.Also I keep telling these wankers not to try trolling a troll. Clearly, they’re not paying attention. Time to advance the schedule.

No they had over 50 orphans. Every single block was orphaned. They later went back and suddenly became confirmed. Only these blocks were mined by ‘unknown’.

[/quote]From what I saw the blocks were coming in fast at less than two minutes. Even if the diff did go down it should not have gone down so much. The blocks after the diff change were over written by the attackers with blocks dated a day before. It effectively doubled the amount of time it was supposed to take so the diff went down to the maximum amount. If we can dig up the details on the orphaned difficulty change block we can figure out exactly what the difficulty was supposed to be.
