I'm new to mining and have a low hash rate. Justified delay in coin payouts due to required maturity is understandable, the same is true if a particular p2pool have not solved yet any blocks. To avoid confusion and as seen in what happened to the monocle payouts for small miners, I suggest that all p2pool and proxy2pool sites include basic user statistics page. The statistics may include expected or estimated coin payouts or information indicating that no blocks have been solved yet so that small and big miners are not left in the dark if they are mining correctly or not.
I started mining vetcoins with http://p2proxy.net/ because of the user statistics page. When monocle was launched, the payouts became longer due to reasons experienced by several p2pools already explained previously, so I tried http://vtc.cubeconnex.com because of good feedback here and because it was in Asia and lower latency for me. I did receive several monocle coins but had no idea where it came from because of lack of a simple to view user statistics page. Now I'm trying http://simplevert.com/ because of the user statistics page which is excellent. As to payouts, I'm yet to find out.
For P2pool and proxy2pool operators, please consider my request. I think many small miners will agree that user statistics information is very important. That's the only way we can find out if we are mining correctly and what our expected or estimated payouts are. If you have the time and resources to configure and setup up p2pool and proxy2pool servers, I believe setting up a decent user statistics page in your servers will not be too much of an effort.

Just an update on my HashHarder experience - I have received everything owed (both VTC and MON) - a significant chunk of it came in via large payments earlier today after an extended gap in payouts. Rigs I put in there less than 8 hours ago have already paid out multiple MON and VTC payments throughout the day. I have 7 different rigs there and they are all having good results. Those of you receiving nothing - have you checked to make sure your shares are even being submitted on your miner? Nothing else would really make sense.

Pushed big update for my WebFace for proxypool. https://github.com/Cooba13/proxypool-simplestats
May 04, 2014, 10:59:01 PM
Cubevtc, I haven't received any MON for the last 3 hours in http://vtc.cubeconnex.com:9171/static/. Could you check if there is anything wrong? This is my MON address MECSrqFYYqtvHK9QJmMYcjY1Q3Yim7R5HE. VTC is normal.
I will check and get back to you.
EDIT: The pool is having some 'unlucky rounds' for MON currently (as described in CPPSRB). Please note that the new proxypool uses CPPSRB while the traditional p2pool usess PPLNS. Our pool is accumulating MONs for the next payout.
We have very good 'lucky rounds' earlier on. Lots of MON were coming in. Unfortunately we have entered into the 'unlucky rounds'. I hope the dry spell will be over soon. Do read up CPPSRB on http://eligius.st/~gateway/faq/capped-pps-recent-backpay in the mean time, if you have not. It does help to alleviate our unease.
EDIT: Dry spell is over! Just checked. We have MONs coming in.. but they are immature. Our kitty is filling up.

I'm in http://p2proxy.net
for me is work only I have many rejects
I mining with sapphire radeon R290
when there will be user interface - it would be nice
and how often payments are made,
and we lose coins when you often pay a transaction fee? ? ?
two and a half hours I have not received payment!

already four hours I have not received anything
I was receiving steady payouts but they stopped 4 hours ago on p2proxy.net for me as well.
Share backlog: 389052 Hasn't changed in 4 hours.
I did the mistake of thinking I could get some sleep..
The script crashed short afterwards haha, its running again now thoughI posted my story about them on page 31.
Now that stats are back up it no longer say how much it owes me. I was shorted at least 10 VTC and probably 50 MON. If I were you I would switch to simplevert

Guys, mine on P2Pool. FORGET traditional pools!
It doesn't help when a pool is getting up to 20,000 VTC a month and dumping 1-2% of that with fees.
It's already bad enough with people covering electricity costs and selling. Guaranteed when MON hits an exchange they will have thousands getting instadumped.
Meanwhile, it's only supporting centralization.

It's still not determined if this pool, or others paid miners for the 24 hours they received NOTHING.
I would agree with P2Pool being the better choice, but even many p2pool operators charge fees to cover costs. Further, while I can't go through and ensure that 100% of my shares were paid, I did check my transaction list this morning and I have a couple dozen transactions from throughout the night as well as one lump sum of 12 MON that I suspect is from the backed up pay script. Don't spread FUD, HashHarder payed it's miners just fine.
Also, for us smaller miners, it was only recently that good, low latency p2pools on network 3 have been confirmed operational, so HH has been a great hold over until then.
Myself, and a friend, did not receive any payments from there still. I was on there with one of my GPUs for over 12 hours. I got one payment when it started and that was it. 100% of my shares were paid with on my other two cards on different P2Pools.
I have all of them to P2Proxy because it seems to be the best solution so far. If you have low hash, use Simple Vert.

Simple Vert is paying out a 10% bonus on MON blocks! This might be permanent
Yesterday we added merged mining for everyone, it has been rock solid so far, and we've added basic stats so you can see how much MON you are mining (Example).
Since some miners have not set a MON payout address, we're left holding some leftover MON. We're sending a bunch of that MON back to you! With a 10% bonus, you get 110% of the MON you mine.
Depending on how many miners set their MON address, we may be able to run the 10% bonus continuously. For now we are doing it as a trial, and may adjust the % up or down.

Forked to include bootstrap css. and some very simple checks around the $_GET variables.
Let me know if this owrks
THanks, merged and did some minor tweaks to get it work

thats great news zen!
so for any shares 10% bonus yes? not just for block finders? great way to distribute unclaimed goods!
yup, should be showing up on your user stats

Hi Avensen,
Sorry I really can't say - it may just be variance, it may be an artifact of having to wait for coin maturity etc. if you're trying to evaluate the income too soon. I have double checked the scripts just now and everything is running normally, and every time the scripts run they are paying out almost the entire balance on the node wallets as they should be.
I see, thanks for the reply.
May 04, 2014, 02:52:28 PM
Boris, what's wrong with stratum+tcp://p2pool.vtcpool.co.uk:9555 performance/fees?
For me payouts are only 65% of VTC, compared to what I get at usual Vertcoin pool.
I collected such results from 5Mh pointed to your node for 17 hours, ping time is 50ms, rejected shares percentage is 3%. And CGWatcher reports same total Hashrate.

Payouts are working fine. Both Wallets have a positive Balance so you will get your first Payouts relatively quick after starting to Mine on the Node.
