The WSS gives erroneous data

Post by TTo314 » Fri Sep 29, 2017 3:09 am

I use nicehash and got good deltas with differences between my payment for the hash and the payment that shows your wss of more than 20% and I get lost over 10%. This earlier did not work this way. You can confirm if you have any errors. Thank you.

I have tested with the parameters a=script d=262144 and the benefits are also incorrect.

Have you checked to see whether NiceHash is applying one of those "deltas?" They overpenalize for pools that have frequent work restarts, taking more money from their customers than is actually lost to the restarts.

You can get around the issue by using "h=x," where x is the minimum network difficulty of the coins you want to mine. Most miners don't need to worry about h=, but with NiceHash, you can experiment with different values until you find one that is appropriate.

I think he means you corrected the pool's math error and he no longer makes 20% more free money.
The last time he ran it, he ended up losing 10% instead of making his 20%. And wants to know why it is off.

Because the pool fixed an error that was paying more than it should have
