Mining on BTCMine (0% fee) for 24 hours = 1.17 BTC
Mining on Deepbit for 24 hours, during the 0% fee period = 1.55 BTC

So one pool had better luck than the other pool? ok

I don't know about you, but personally I want to mine on the pool with the highest payout.

I have factual evidence that deepbit pays out higher, while you are just here arguing that the pool is "luckier." Alright.

I don't think you understand how the Bitcoin system works. In some 24 hour periods on BTCmine I will make double what I would have made on Deepbit. This is simply due to variance.

EDIT - rezin777 beat me to it

You don't understand variance. That's OK, some do.

0% proportional fee for a few days, I like!!!!!

Gee, how many pools have had this for ages now?

Ya, but their payout is not as high

Are you on drugs?

Oh also, since BTCMine has a 0% fee then why isn't EVERYONE mining on BTCMine? Because other pools have a higher payout (deepbit, in this case).

0% fees = 100% payout. Roll Eyes

Deepbit pays out more than 100%, but less than 103% (101% to 102.7%), so it's still not as good as a 0%, straight-forward pool, statistically.

I add another me 2 to the chorus.

ERROR: Can't connect to Bitcoin: Server redirected too many times

that's what I get for my troubles :(...

There is a little problem with DiabloMiner - it triggers the DDoS protection.
This will be fixed when i'll switch to another one. Other miners are working.

Some pools get "lucky" on certain days. Statistically it's just not possible for one pool to consistently "pay more", all things being equal.

I had almost 5 BTC for a 24 hr period from BTCMine. With deepbit, the most I saw at the current difficulty level was 4.45 BTC.

*shrug*

YMMV.

24 hours is not enough time to determine whether one pool is "better" than another. You need at least 72 hours. Maybe a week if it's a newer pool (presuming the new pool is stable).

Btw Bitcoincharts.com is using hashrate from pools websites to draw chart. So when website is down/DDoSed and Bitcoincharts show zero % of some pool, that does not necessary mean that all pool hashpower is gone...

Wish more people would understand that Wink

Oh, I completely missed this thread. Yes, my pool was DDoSed - around 100Mbit/s of incomming traffic between 2am - 4am UTC. Then it went back to normal operation.
