Speaking of which, how would I go about running either my own pool, or running something like p2pool? I'd like to see how it's done, if Fuse doesn't mind. Doesn't mean I'd set one up though ... but 1% or 2% of 50~100 MH/S looks good. I'd probably add my own miner too, since 1% of 100 MH/s is only 1 MH/s and a 4 GPU rig is more than double that already.
Dabs, sorry for the late reply. I've been sick the last few days, and I haven't been as active as I usually am.
Getting a regular MPOS stratum pool up and running is relatively easy to do if you follow the MPOS instructions to a t. The only thing you need to remember is that Tagcoin is a POS coin as well, so you need to make sure you get the POS branch of the stratum-litecoin-mining git project. Other than that, it's just a lot of configuration. If you aren't running on high-powered servers, dedicated or otherwise, remember to shut off the live stats. I learned the hard way that they take a toll on your CPU usage, especially if you start pulling a lot of pool workers(not accounts, but workers).
As far as P2Pool goes, I've never tried. I would guess it would be as easy as setting up the wallet, pointing the p2pool service at the wallet, and testing it out. I'll take a look and see how hard it would be. I'll report back with what I find.

Edit- Dabs, take a look at https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool. Pretty straight forward on the setup, assuming you some general knowledge in the services used. If you decide to go down that road, and need some help, let me know.
