Might as well be; the whole point of the OP was to get what the website is giving you live.

There is no longer any point in waiting for the OP results.

You can always parse http://poolpicker.eu/text.php, but that does not mean it works well in practice. There's a cost from switching, you need to consider unexchanged balance, your ping to those pools is certainly different, past performance doesn't guarantee the future, etc...

Here is what I posted on the Middlecoin thread:

Actually this is a lot more difficult that it looks.

All of the information on payouts, etc. from that website are based on old (12+ hour) data.

You wouldn't be doing yourself any favors by switching to a pool that had a good payout YESTERDAY.

What you would need to do is get live data from the pools and then do a switch.

Then you must also keep in mind that most multi-pool's data is notoriously slow to get and unreliable.

But, it is a worthwhile venture.   Grin

Is there an API? This would make it relatively easy to write a script to auto-change your miners to the highest profitability pool.

One interesting thing about wafflepool (that I think, ALL pools should DO) is that, they use password as a difficulty setting.

if you password is: "d=256" you will mine at a fixed 256 difficulty
fantastic!


Right now, perhaps temporarily or perhaps not, Wafflepool has changed that, and diff is now hardcoded at 512 as the operator
works on tweaking some things and improving profitability. More details can be found in the wafflepool thread.

At least multi-pool doesn't pay in BTC. Maybe that is it  Huh

Interesting review, I reckon I know who wins but the clever scrypt-n switching idea might steal victory

Excellent post!
Very useful information

I always hated the 1024 FIXED difficulty from middlecoin but take it, because the profits where good anyways.
