exec getdimensionalbalance 0 Largest_Coin

bad lexical cast: source type value could not be interpreted as target (code -1)

I mean to first find your largest coin in Coin Control, then use that number, and that should yield one result and one total.

MIP-

I wanted to make a small record of this so we dont forget - POG should theoretically allow us to help the unbanked - I believe all we need is the current POG difficulty level, a 'pog tithe' button, and the ability for the mobile wallet to send a tithe.  At that point, the user should enter the pog pool.

I forgot to mention all, this 1179 also has a feature that prevents users from accidentally being deemed as an illegal tithe - remember mint pointed out when the block changed the quoted difficulty was still on the screen and the tithe became illegal?  We fixed that in 1179 by quoting the diff 3 blocks back, allowing a tithe to be entered even if late.

So I believe we should not receive any complaints in prod due to that.

Looks good,  I will start working on the web interface for POG, now that things have stabilized (and migrated to a superblock) it should be easier to track.

I will look to add user stats info as well (payments / receipts) and some averages based on history.  I will post requesting feedback as I have something for folks to look at.

Thats great btw, but on a side note, just to clarify, we should never run into a situation where anyone misses a pog payment (if the tithe was legal and they entered the pool).  In this next version, the pog pool should match on everyone synced on the same chain, and therefore each daily superblock will always have all participants (IE no sanc contract is required to be agreed on in this case).  (If pog is off by 1 bbp, the chain will fork to two chains so everyone is technically required to be synced on the same chain).

However your history will still be nice, because pog wont let the user go back (very easily) and see what they missed; although, technically you can type 'pogpool height' and see the stats at prior heights (IE if you miss a day).

Nice, thanks.
Rob I have other question.
When I try "exec getdimensionalbalance 0 1" it says ""Tithe_Balance_Available": 480898".
Why?
My total balance is over 8M tBBP. Why there are not counted all tBBP'?

So looking at the code on this, the "tithe_balance_available" is really just the total of the RPC output; another words, I think this should be recaptioned.
I just recaptioned it to "total".

To ensure its working right, if you look for your largest coin in value, say 1 million, try :
exec getdimensionalbalance 0 Largest_Coin

It should then just show 1, with a total of the large coin (I just tried and it worked).

So in summary this command just shows you the coins that meet the specs you provide.

Yes that was my opinion...
Sorry if I was not clear

I think you were clear, I was just reading into the prior issue for some reason.  Anyway now they are separated and I think that was a good improvement.

I added the very basic POG Leaderboard last night.

Let me take a look at the entire feature before I do a build as we are close to finishing this version.  I can't think of anything else we are missing in this version.

(Either way Ill do a build sometime today so we can continue testing).

Yeah, I'm not able to force donate too (because of coin age).

And Rob, it would be better to have it separate.
1st checkbox should be "Tithe" (mining) and 2nd checkbox should be "Donation".
And thay can be totaly independent. I think it's not neccessary to check two boxes for donation.

Well I think you mean clicking the Force donation box alone should also populate the foundation address, yes that could be good also (then you can click it alone).
And maybe we re-caption Donate to "POG Tithe".

Ok, Ill look into doing this now.

To test the functionality, Your Tithe Ability Qty should be 0. Unless you want the ability to bypass PoG also require a certain min coin age. Although, that wouldn't make sense as you'd want to accept donation to foundation (non PoG) not looking at coin age. If your test included Tithe Ability Qty 0, then I may need to test my configuration more to see if I can reproduce your success.

The rule is not this complicated - its just as simple as :  If you want to force a donation to the orphan foundation, click the Force button.

No - your right though, I didnt test it from a machine that had 0 tithability; I was able to reproduce the problem, and now its fixed in the next version.

Thank you for pointing out the flaw.

Force donation was supposed to allow you to force a donation through, even if you dont want the tithe credit (IE say you want to send 10,000 bbp this month).

I forgot to look at this, checking...

I attempted to reproduce but force worked for me - you have to click on both Donate and Force to force it (not just force), and enter an amount > 300 for example, and it goes through.
If you click just Donate without force, and try > 300 it fails.

Sounds great!

Yeah, I keep considering adding a UI for QT, but I kept backtracking on that because the 'pogpool' command is pretty simple to understand-but maybe not enough.  Maybe I should make a leaderboard for the UI:

Click POG Leaderboard from QT:
We list Tithers nickname, amount, and pog_pool_weight per row, in descending order, -- that might be cool.
Then a grand total.

Yeah, I think I can squeeze that in next.

Is Force Donation and Donate to Foundation still two separate options? I should in theory be able to check on Force Donation to donate... but doesn't seem to work for me. If Donate to Foundation works, then Force Donation works... but if Donate to Foundation with max tithe value doesn't work, then Force Donation doesn't work either. I hope I'm explaining this correctly. It was my understanding that Force Donation allows you to donate to foundation without participating in PoG.

Force donation was supposed to allow you to force a donation through, even if you dont want the tithe credit (IE say you want to send 10,000 bbp this month).

I forgot to look at this, checking...

While I jump back in to look at the state of POG, does anyone have any more last minute considerations for POG?  I have Orbis' recommendations about less exec, and maybe a POG UI grid, other than that any other issues or recommendations for us to add?

It appears everything is working properly now.  When I grep debug.log for SuccessfulCheck I can see all the nodes have been in agreement on this version (with 0 errors on any POG superblock since we upped to 1179) and the training wheels have already been removed - meaning this version is almost Prod ready.  The PODC superblocks are still working and paying the right amount.  The heat mining payments of ~115 appear correct, the masternodes still get paid when they are voted (as I can see some do successfully vote in testnet)- all the amounts appear to be correct.

Only if  I pass it through command line, not config file. Same happens in Mac, I can try debug it when I find a moment.

BTW, the chat menu is not visible in MacOS, probably because the "About" menu role in QMenu has a special meaning in MacOS GUI (that moves the "about" menu options to the top-left position, besides the system "apple" menu option).

The only way for it to work ok is commenting both lines in src/qt/bitcoingui.cpp

ln 438 // openChatGeneralAction->setMenuRole(QAction::AboutRole);
ln 443 //  openChatPMAction->setMenuRole(QAction::AboutRole);

This way it shows fine as in Win version.

Ok, 10-4 on the chat menu, thanks.  I suppose I can just comment it out.  (On a side note, we appear to have all stayed in sync with POG, which is awesome, meaning we should see in the log the 'Success' for POG recipients, but, we do need a few lines of code added to cover one situation where the user -reindex (es).  Maybe I will team those two things together today.  But these are low priority and only for the release candidate).

On the nickname, btw, I do not have an issue when running from linux either (using the biblepaytest.conf).  What I do is:
cd ~/.biblepaycore
(This is the directory where the debug.log is for PROD).  I place the biblepaytest.conf file in that dir.
Then I start with
./biblepay-qt -conf=biblepaytest.conf
This could be a *mac* only issue then I think.... 
On a side note, maybe try copying the biblepaytest.conf to your Mac prod directory where debug.log is (IE the issue might have been the nomenclature of Prod working dir).

I launched 1.1.7.9 and resynced and all my previously mined coins in the last week dissapeared. Is this the expected behaviour?
Can someone post current block hash to check if I'm in the right chain? Thanks

Sunk818, MacOS testnet version is ready. 

Testnet PPAs are also building as we speak.

Yes, its correct, because 1179 started 500~ blocks or so back behind the solved blocks of 1177, so you will have to start with -zapwallettxes=1 (and also after reindexing reboot once).
