In the case of the p2pool:
cgminer --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8116 -u yourLKYaddress -p . --queue 0 -s 1
statistics available here: http://next.afraid.org:8116. This pool use a PPLNS payout scheme, and is stratum enabled.
The PPLNS windows is set to 1 hour, so you will get the expected payout after only a few blocks found. Anyway, the default configuration is around 24H. You have to mine days and night to reach the expected value, not fair at all...
This server is always as effective, no orphan, and the payout is there. If you are looking for a reliable pool, it is there.
Great - this server is flawless, it works fine, and the block coins higher than 88 are well distributed. Perfection.
I'm still using this pool, great server reliable, and fully operational.
Let's try this one, the hashrate require a pool.
