Thanks for your input. I'm personally open to the idea, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of demand (only a couple of people have asked for it over the past few years), and I'm not sure it would be high enough to justify the effort. I'll think about it. If anybody else would like such a service, please let me know (either on here or via email) so that I can gauge interest.
Well, this is not good for your pool in Litecoin land. The latest (only?) new miner for sale scrypt-pow wise is the Innsilicon A6 at $2,000 respectively and if you get one
today you mine at a loss of -$2.18 USD per day at 10c a kWh. (my data hall rates includes all fees etc). This one is at a $2,000 price tag.

The Innsilicon A+ at a bit more at 1gh moe in speed you lose -$2.50 USD per day at its $3,000 price tag.

So I can safely say, well into 2020, that the ONLY pool I might join is a SOLO pool with my puny Bitmain L3+. This is IMHO something you should get right on. A SOLO pool for when the rest of
folk drop off your main www.litecoinpool.org site and use these for doorstops. This way at LEAST you get a portion of something if someone hits some blocks with equipment that would
otherwise, sit in the attic. I don't see this changing in any way shape or form until way into 2020 myself. It is that ugly. This again, would be a good fallback postion for folk to at least play the lottery!
Anyway, I'd drop one on a SOLO pool you would run immediately. As it is now not motivated by other solo pools so they sit in the attic.
Anyway, my 2 satoshi's worth.

edit: Again, I think the demand is 'hidden' from those who have gone off your pool. If you offered such a lot of us would likely go 'what the hell' and at least fire ONE back up on such a pool. IMHO.
