Cryptsy server issues

[Chris Sokolowski]

As of 7PM EDT October 16, Cryptsy seems to be having issues with its servers. Some coins on the site may go offline temporarily as Cryptsy cannot be used to trade them, which will reduce our profitability for this period. Once Cryptsy is functional again those coins will re-enable themselves and profitability will return to normal.

As of 9PM EDT October 16, it looks like Cryptsy is back to normal, and the pool has returned to normal as well.

As of 1AM EDT October 17, Cryptsy has again halted trading on their servers, so I have temporarily put the pool into Litecoin-only mode. The only payouts enabled at the moment are Bitcoin and Litecoin, and the only coin available for mining is Litecoin. This restriction will be removed once Cryptsy reopens.

As of 5PM EDT October 17, Cryptsy's API is still offline, so we will continue mining Litecoins. Cryptsy's API is sending back garbage responses causing our stratum server to occasionally restart, so you may experience occasional connection interruptions while Cryptsy's API is not working.

Despite Cryptsy's issues, tomorrow's scheduled maintenance of our server will continue as planned.

It looks like Cryptsy's API is back online. I'm going to give it a little while to make sure they have things sorted out, and then Chris will re-enable all coins in half an hour.

Cryptsy is back online and I have returned the pool to its normal state. Please let me know if there you are having any issues.
