Yes if slush's pool would happen to go down you want at minimum a second pool in there for fail over purposes so you are not wasting electricity and potential btc while you wait for it to come up.
As far as luck that's typically all it would be I had very good results mining slush when I started months back, but slush's pool works out over the long run, but "most" pools will give you similar results over an extended period!
Topic: any reason to join more than one pool? (Read 406 times)
I just fired up my first S1 and joined slush's pool. I see in the config screen you can configure up to 3 pools. is there any reason to join more than one pool?
Is it worth it for the first few days to see which pool seems luckiest?
thanks in advance,
