contest rules
you need to use gminer from version 2.73 or higher
for participation in contest, you need to run miner with "--contest_wallet ETH_WALLET" parameter, accordingly specifying a valid Eth wallet in the parameter (for example: --contest_wallet 0x5218597d48333d4a70cce91e810007b37e2937b5)
condition for participation in contest is use of gminer on any algorithm and with any hashrate with --contest_wallet parameter for at least 168 hours
each rig participating in contest has same weight regardless of hashrate (from laptop to rig with 20 cards)
miner notifies contest server every hour of continuous work, server remembers number of hours worked and wallet for contest specified in --contest_wallet parameter
user ID is set of hardware IDs, there is no point in running multiple copies of the miner in parallel on same rig, this does not increase chances of winning
miner running on multiple rigs, even with same Eth wallet specified in the --contest_wallet parameter, increases chances of winning in proportion to number of rigs
server stores number of hours worked, miner can be restarted without losing accumulated time
in process of working with --contest_wallet parameter, current progress in fulfilling conditions of contest is displayed under statistics table (for example, Contest: 7/168)
in order to become participant in contest and fulfill the necessary conditions, period of time equal to a week is given
at end of contest, data about users (serial number, unique identifier, Eth wallet) who have fulfilled all conditions are uploaded to numbered list and placed in public access
winners are selected from public list of participants using online roulette in live broadcast
each of winners is sent certain amount of coins to Eth wallet specified in the --contest_wallet parameter
each participant can win unlimited number of times
use --user_id option to get unique id of rig
list of participants is periodically published in "Gminer Talk" group ( https://t.me/gminer_talk )
