Status as of Saturday, August 8

[Steve Sokolowski]

Greetings! Here's today's status:

• We were finally able to release all the new features we talked about in last Saturday's update. Look back at that post for more information.
• The new website features include the new "tips for Chris" feature that was requested by users, pool-wide electricity usage, 7 changes requested by tuscondirect, and several more minor changes.
• The most important new mining server feature is the ability for the server to run completely disconnected from the database in the case of database failure. Shares submitted will then be inserted after the database recovers. There are other features designed to improve stability in a number of edge cases, as our primary goal now is to achieve as much uptime as possible.
• Tomorrow, I hope to have a fix out for the "tooltips invisible in Firefox" bug, along with several other website bugs. I will also be modifying some tables in the database to increase performance, so the system could get "behind" tomorrow for a time.
• Allcoin has still not responded to our complaints about their freezing of our account. Three days is long enough to wait for a simple reply. We informed them that if they do not respond by midnight tomorrow, we will be treating their actions as theft and will act accordingly. Hopefully, we won't need to get reddit or the police involved and they will pay us what we are owed before then.
• As always, please report any issues caused by this release. And, if you know what the mining.set_extranonce feature is supposed to add to a pool, please let us know so we can decide to implement it.

Allcoin has had more than ample time to address concerns, i would initiate a thread on Reddit/BTCTalk and see if other accounts have been frozen as well

We can't do that until tonight, mostly because we told them we wouldn't. Otherwise, they'll just come back and say "you gave us until tonight, and we were working on it."

The last time we did this with Cryptsy, the post went to the top of reddit and got Cryptsy's attention. Some blogs and media outlets covered it. I want to make sure that if these news websites interview Allcoin, they won't be able to stretch the truth.
