Oh and you should switch to kano.s, it's a much better pool.
I have my main hash on Kano and my Compac's and such on Bitminter. By the way, the are a lot of pools that have payouts equal to or greater than Kano (except the last few days which have been crazy lucky).
I know this is going to start a firestorm but... Eclipse Ming Consortium
https://eclipsemc.com/ is excellent. Leaving the BFL matters aside, they have been rock-solid for me since started mining back in Feb. 2014
They have always been a small pool, current hashrate is 907THs. Yes their PPS plan charges 5% but - you get paid no matter how long it takes them to crack a block even if it turns out stale or invalid. Hash rate applied is revised every 15min with the new rate immediately applied to your work with full new hash rate being shown in 1hr. No '5n windup'. If you have an EMC account, payment is upon the kitty hitting your chosen payout trigger, in my case every 0.2 BTC.
Kano and Antpool are PPLNS meaning you are paid by average hashrate covering 5n shifts with payment only after the found block(s) mature.I have ran comparisons with them against Kano and Antpool a couple months ago and looking at payouts once the PPLNS windup is over, given 2 weeks or more run time on the pools EMC has ALWAYS come out ahead by ~ 5%.
However, as kilo mentioned, Kano has been doing exceptionally well for the past couple weeks. Right now I have ~71TH pointed there and will be doing another spread sheet on the long-term results vs EMC again.
That's quite interesting. I LOVE PPS pools, and generally to satisfy that need I go to antpool with their 10-minute blocktimes and low payouts. Lel. I tried eclipsemc for a while and it works well. I tried with a Block Erupter rig at 5gh/s and for some reason no shares were accepted on pps. I got 90 shares but after an hour none were on the website. I tried with a S1 that I keep just for pooltesting and each share was up, accepted, on the mark. Great pool, hates my block erupter but still a better pool than antpool... Just cause.
I really dunno about payouts, but to my surprise the payments were nearly equal to my combined antpool payments. Mind. Blown.
I guess kano is no longer such a small pool, and I'll keep about 50gh/s on it with loadbalancing on my s3. It deserves attention, and i'll see that it gets it.
