Yep, checked, getinfo reports v6.
Enforcement is on! It's looking like the distribution code is working properly. Here's the payouts so far:
Agreed this distribution method is exactly what will attract people to setup a MN as the returns can be predicted! AWESOME work Evan - cant wait for this to go live!NICE Work! This is what all MN owners have been waiting for....
I left a solo miner running 10.15.05 just waiting for enforcement to be turned back on and and it forked off just like i had expected.
So this means three more weeks of XwzmEE1cJ6HG84CgJvAt7ADmJ8W9Wh65Tq and XixmyNSGGGXEJEzKghoRnTto5ZVhficSek getting paid for their existing loopholes due to pools not upgrading, right?
Fantastic, secondly, replied on BCT as well, but for the payout structure, how does it work with new nodes coming online with the distribution?No, they'll be killed as soon as the pools update their daemons.

It's a true proof-of-service setup now. So the nodes must be active, as soon as your new node comes online it has a 1 in N chance of being selected each new block (N being the total number of masternodes). After that it can't be paid again for N blocks.
You mean it can't be paid again for N-1 blocks? i.e. there are 3 MNs (A,B,C), and A gets paid in block 1, B gets paid in block 2, and C gets paid in block 3. Now if A can't get paid again for 3 blocks (2,3,4) , there is no node that can be paid in block 4.
Also, can it happen that there is a block where no MN is paid because nodes are coming and going? i.e. in the previous example, A gets paid in block 1, and MNs B and C drop.
I'm sure you already have these covered, just double checking.

Yeah I tried to test some of this on TESTNET by waiting to see my MN in the masternode winners list and then i shutdown my MN and still got paid, but it didn't come back up to get paid again until i brought it back online. But will test again on 15.6 with enforcement
Looking good Ed. Would it help provide data if I increased hashrate? As I've said before, I need Stratum pool to help...
There's a 10% margin to give the algo some room for nodes coming and going. So if you were super lucky you could get paid 10% more than everyone else. If there's no valid node, then the networks enforcement turns off for that block and the pool will pay a random node of it's choosing (which won't happen very often).

This is testing the new patch, can I get some hashing power? Thanks
