Topic: Best pooled minning? - page 2. (Read 2668 times)
By the way, with the aggressive marketing, the style of the website and typical type of member there, and the size of it, bitclockers are pretty likely to be the ones behind DDOSing the other pools. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
You also get a smaller piece of the pie compared to guys who generate much higher Hashs. If you luck out on the smaller pools you gain more as the pay out will be higher. Arsbitcoin has been pretty decent since their payout system (PPS) is different.
I think that's another myth. If you're mining at 100 MH/s and someone else in your pool is mining at 300 MH/s, it doesn't matter if the block is found in 1 minute or 10 minutes, he's getting 75% and you're getting 25% no matter what. There's no bonus as far as I know to being the person who actually found the block.
Depends on the pool.

The one I use is deepbit. It's working good for me 
BTCGuild is the best by far. Here's what you need to realize that apparently the vast majority of people don't understand. Let's say everyone mines at 1 GH/s 
Let's say one pool has 1000 GH/s and another has 2000 and there's only those 2 pools. You join pool 2 because obviously they have double the chance of finding a block as the first one. You'll make so much more money! WRONG. You're splitting 50 BTC with 200 people twice as often as opposed to splitting 50 BTC with half as many people half as often. They tie. No matter what pool you choose, you have exactly the same profitability.
The difference is fees they charge and features they offer. BTCGuild is the best for that. I even jacked up my donation so I qualify for e-mail notifications of stalled workers. That's saved A LOT of lost mining time and paid for itself about 10x over so far.
The biggest pool I know of has important features missing and stores your password in PLAIN TEXT in their database. Plain freaking text! And they're the biggest pool! So I think we know who's the #1 hacker target.

I moved from btcguild after having horrible luck and I agree bitclockers has been pretty good.
forget bout all other pools go with https://bitclockers.com/
I like BTC Guild, I like interface and 0% fees, but I am getting the worst luck there lately.
Thanks for the tip guys might try this place out.
Another vote for arsbitcoin here. I switched to them about a week ago and and really happy there
Does slush payout a full 8 decimals yet?
The main thing i look for in a pool are low (read:no) fees, automatic payouts, and full account payouts (all 8 digits to the left of the decimal)

2% fee. Smallest is 0.01 This is also for deepbit. Only the smaller ones have full payout.
Ninjacoin.com is paypershare, so you get a fixed amount for every valid share you submit, which means no variance etc and you dont have to wait for a block to be solved to get paid!
Ars bitcoin is also a nice PPS pool. No fees, friendly interface and steady payout without variance.

Not a good day to be trying out BTCGuild for the first time - once this next block comes in the 24 hour luck will be around -65% - roughly only 8 blocks in 24 hours!

Spent five days checking out deepbit but found that slush's pool give slightly better returns for my setup, which is a modest hd 6770.
Just ran btcguild all night didn't get a fraction of what I would have gotton at deepbit/slush. Just deleted my profiles for btcguild not gonna be going there again. Just slush and deepbit now.
+1 for Deepbit.net! 
Been using Deepbit.net for about4-5 weeks now. No complaints.
