someone PM'd me weeks ago about having troubles with payouts on his mcxNOW address, i don't have any experience with their address system personally. The payout to your address was definitely executed, you should talk to mcxNOW about this issue.

I'd use mcxnow for that, crypsty is not 100% reliable...also, you get interest for holding coins there.
I've had 0 issues with Cryptsy. Where's the source on them charging interest? I'm not finding anything about that anywhere...

He meant that mcxNOW gives you interest on your deposits.

Oh hey Xolo I forgot to say nice decision removing the 6 chains I said a while ago that this would be the best course of action though I wasn't directly talking about rejection rate I did sort of mention it  ;Deither way having no 6 chains definitely gives a lot more breathing room with regards to the shelving as you should have a lot more XMP left over hopefully.

I'm doing this with Cryptsy and haven't had any issues. I received my XPM when he did the payout.

Come on.. He payed. Transaction is in blockchain. Just show it to http://xpm.cryptocoinexplorer.com/address/-1 , enter XPM address,  find any differences with deposits on your exchange account and open support ticket there.
 (just may be, did you changed deposit address on exchange?)

@ivanlabrie:
It appears mcxnow isn't 100% reliable either. Sigh.

@xolokram:
I will pursue the matter with mcxnow.

@marduc:
mcxnow pays interest, they do not charge it.

@romaniz:
Yes he paid, I just haven't got it, which isn't his fault. No address changes were done. Technology isn't perfect. I had never thought about lost payments, but I will double check things in the future...

Out of curiosity is anybody else out there using mcxnow, and did you get the payout?

I see. When he was listing reasons not to use Cryptsy I assumed he was saying Crypsty charged you to hold coins there. That would have blown my mind. That's why I wanted a source.  ;)

I use mcxnow on a daily basis, but prefer to get my payouts in my local xpm address...You have to avoid sending too small of a transaction, otherwise you won't get the deposits at mcxnow. Read the account page, there's a minimum deposit amount allowed.

It was me that PM'd xolokram about issues getting paid direct to my mcxNow address. I contacted RealSolid over at mcxNow who told me that the addresses there aren't set up to receive the bulk payouts in the format that beeeeer was sending. He recommended that I use a local wallet to receive payment and then forward xpm to mcxNow from there. I've done that since with no issue.

Personally I would never trust an exchange to be my payout address -  it's another point of failure.

Thanks for this - could I ask how did you get the percentage?

Is it as simple as a difficulty of 9.xx = a 9.xx% chance?

Not really...
You can read the details here: http://ppcoin.org/static/primecoin-paper.pdf

In short words: the difficulty consists of an iteger part and a fractional part.
Say you have a diff of "x.y".
Then the integer part "x" requires a length of chains (cunningham of 1st and 2nd kind and bi-twin chains) of x and above whereas the fractional part "y" renders only "y" percent of all possible chains successful in solving a block. As far as I remember the fractional part is not considered, if the length of the chain is y+1...

@ivanlabrie:
I experimented with rpool and encountered the problem of minimum payment size of 0.1 XPM. The 3.xxx XPM beeeeer payouts have never been a problem, at least not that I am aware of; I am going to be checking much closer from now on. I can't see how an an 8.xxx payout should be a problem. I emailed them about it. If they are not reliable I may look elsewhere.

@MJ2P:
I guess a transaction isn't just a transaction? How does a "bulk payout" transaction differ from any other transaction? This makes no sense to me...

@ScottJ:
In my experience the wallet is a single point of failure. When I first started mining BTC I had a wallet, and it got corrupted and I lost it all. Sure I should have had a backup, but that is just another thing to worry about. From what I was able to glean on-line wallets were less trouble and less prone to corruption, as well as being accessible from multiple locations. But if on-line wallets are not reliable, either as an instance here or as a class, that puts an entirely different aspect to it.

@masterOfDisaster:
Does this mean that when the difficulty exceeds 10 the minimum chain length required jumps from 9 to 10?

EDIT:
Now things are really strange. I just got a transaction of 3.xxx on mcxnow. It does not show up on Primecoin Explorer. I am not smart enough to figure out whom it came from, but is it the first of the new payouts?

I'm afraid I don't know enough about how a transaction is structured to be able to tell you why, I'm just passing on information given to me by the owner and creator of mcxNow.

hey all, quick question about the pay out system

so until a few minutes ago i only had pending shares listed, that list has dissappeared and now the paid share list starts to show just wondering what @10, @9, @8 etc mean and also @null
