Ha. You should see the 94 BTC someone once paid as a transaction fee:
or the 111 BTC someone accidentally paid back in January:

In the case of this transaction that was mined by BTC Guild, who gets the fees ?? BTCGUILD Management ?
In this case, 9 BTC were paid out to the PPLNS users on the pool that are paid transaction fees.
The mining pool was kind enough to send the rest of the excessive fee back to the person who accidentally paid it:
Just confirm it's safe to do so and I can send 101 BTC back to the originating address. Unfortunately a bit does get eaten up because PPLNS users on the pool are paid transaction fees (but only a minor percentage of users take part in PPLNS).
1ciyam3htJit1feGa26p2wQ4aw6KFTejU is the originating address.

That would be wonderful of you (losing 10 BTC is at least much better than losing 111 BTC).
I've sent a PM with a message and signature to prove I own it.
102 BTC returned in this transaction: http://blockchain.info/tx-index/42579467/4a0fe8cb78b19778a49d171642649c9ee25453ed206894c88b049d0ee7939a0f
I'd highly recommend not creating raw transactions in the future unless absolutely necessary
. $1,500 is a pretty risky mistake if it didn't land on a known pool wallet/IP.
(well, after i saw how much id have to spend, i created a tx with rawtx with only 0.0005 fee and it went trough
