I am going to set the fee to 0% for the next week to compensate everyone for downtime and bugs.

All of my unpaid (and paid) balances were wiped clean upon transition, even though I'm not sticking multiple miners on the same address anymore. Is this the same for everyone?
Very risky move. If you look at how protocol changes in other altcoins have been handled, where has always been a grace period of at least a couple of days. This gives all miners the time needed to update to a newer version.i hope this community will get what it intended to get, but if it not get enough adoption its going in wrong centralized direction which is not what P2P currency mean.
What is going to happen if you don't get the majority of miners to adopt the new protocol in time?
That said, I've updated my miners (300+ cores) to the new protocol version. Lets hope that we get through this smooth.

NEW pool got many rejects
Hard forking like this is pretty messed up considering it gives a huge advantage to the initial miners, like magnitudes worth. This is wrong. If anything the fork should be a brand new blockchain.
early bird gets worm
At the rate we were going 50% of the money supply would have been mined out in the first 2 weeks... not only is this bad for late comers, it was bad for Invictus because our mining strategy was based upon a longer mining window. Perhaps that is selfish, but Invictus is ultimately the one providing backing to ProtoShares. THe chain was operating outside of spec, this is a bug fix.
Ah gotcha. well thats alright with me. I'm just excited to be part of a new "type" of coin all the different altcoins have some potential but ultimately I dont see them being better than the original of that "type" of coin. so the introduction of SHA512 to the mix is cool to me, and then can't wait for the bitshare...merger, changeover, w/e you wanna call it. I think thats supposed to be in Jan of 2014?

I am moving the pool to 192.241.150.158 as part of this transition... so I can clone/scale as necessary.
The pool machine was being overloaded anyway, please take some time to update your miner scripts to point at the new pool location.
the current script only needed (for example)
POOL_MINER.EXE the-iland.net Pdr84TXMcFSLPL2LezDQtrREfnXmBHGFkj
so will it be this \/\/ now?
POOL_MINER.EXE 192.241.150.158 Pdr84TXMcFSLPL2LezDQtrREfnXmBHGFkj
Why did you edit my post instead of simply replying?Due to the rapid increase in demand, we are increasing the rate at which difficulty can adjust from 4x ever 4032 blocks to 32x every 4032 blocks.When will this fork occur? If you are going to do a fork then you need to give pools times to fix software not 2 hours. You are charging a large fee so how do we know this isnt a ploy to control the network for several hours while the other pool owners are still asleep?
If you are mining in my pool, you will automatically be upgraded to the fork.
New windows and mac binaries will be available for download shortly.
If you have any reasons why we shouldn't fork and would like to object you have about 2 hours to do so.
I am charging a 3% fee... so get your facts straight.
I have already talked with the other pools, they will be good to go.
unable to connect....
why?
help me ~~~~~
************** ATTENTION *******************
We are preparing a hard fork that would allow the difficulty to increase by 32x every 4032 blocks. This is the fork that will be honored by Invictus Innovations as the foundation of future block chains.
We will post new Windows and Mac binaries within the next several hours, hopefully before the next difficulty adjustment.
Those in my pool will automatically be updated to join the new fork.
I believe that there is enough hash power and market forces to support such a fork.
If there are any solid objections, speak now.
When's it out Master?
