Difficulty is high however if you believe in PTS and what Invictus is developing, why would you not?  If your simply looking to turn a quick profit, you should look elsewhere.

Any update on this?  Will it be released to the public?

The current logo is ok however the one at protoshares.net is very distinct which can create nice brand recognition!

Xeon L5639 @ 3.52ghz does ~280 cpm with -t 11 and 512mb/thread.  M7h SSE4 version.  Can do more threads but it slows down ltc mining on the same machine.


*12/11/13 updated cpm.

For a linux newbie, what is a good distribution to start out with?

ubuntu?

I'm not code savvy, but is there any safe guard to prevent against people pooling the new lotto system just like ordinary pools?  Granted they would be all or nothing payout, some pools with lots of hash may find it even more rewarding?

Vista64
Intel L5639 @ 3.52ghz running 11 threads does ~162hpm

I have to keep a thread free for ltc mining    I'll try to overclock it a little more tomorrow.

Strange, you're using a Xeon build for GPU mining? what's the motherboard? how many GPUs?
Edit: also, seriously, consider ditching vista, it probably will help your performance, vista was terrible.

x58 Foxconn Bloodrage motherboard.  L5639's sell for ~$80 on eBay compared with $$$ for a 6 core 980x or 990x.  Best 6 core bargain out there however do not work in ALL x58 boards.  Only 2x 7950's in this rig, will be adding two more if gpu mining makes sense for PTS.  http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2335636

I would like win 8.1 however that will force me to spend money on an SSD and waste time re formatting instead of mining.
