nicehash.com usually.  MRR also is a good choice but I usually find their prices to be higher.

And...

I can also vouch for nicehash.

I got lucky the two times I used it at a few different pools and they both went on good luck streaks so the PPLNS worked out in my favor (meaning I earned back what I spent and then some).

Thanks guys!!!

It took some additional help from Jonny -- but I was able to get it to work here...

In the meantime -- I played around with another pool and had the same luck Btcmke had!!!

I'm considering moving my machines over -- but I have a question...

It appears that mining-bravo keeps your work record -- like forever (until a block is found/built)...

In the current pool I'm mining at -- we only get credit for the last 10 shifts...

So, my question is:  If I mined here for a week (example purposes) and then went somewhere else -- and then 2 weeks bravo found a block -- would I still get paid for the week that I was here???

I'm not advocating short term participation -- I'm just trying to clarify...

Thanks again for your help...

Let's see if I can help clarify things.  The pool pays out using PPLNS.  That means shares have a shelf life.  Currently, it's set to 5N, where N is calculated dynamically based upon the shares of the previous 5 rounds.  All things being equal, that translates into about 5 blocks worth of payments per share.  In other words, if the pool finds blocks at exactly 100% luck, then your share would be paid 5 times.

As with all PPLNS pools, there's the concept of "ramping", where you build up to your theoretical expected payout per share.  For the sake of this explanation, let's assume the pool finds one block per day.  Also, let's assume you mine for 10 days.  Here's how it would break down:

Day 1 - 1/5 expected
Day 2 - 2/5 expected
Day 3 - 3/5 expected
Day 4 - 4/5 expected
Day 5 - 5/5 expected
Day 6 - 5/5 expected
Day 7 - 5/5 expected
Day 8 - 5/5 expected
Day 9 - 5/5 expected
Day 10 - 5/5 expected
Day 11 - 4/5 expected
Day 12 - 3/5 expected
Day 13 - 2/5 expected
Day 14 - 1/5 expected
Day 15 - 0

As you can see, it all adds up.  You mine for 10 days, and you get 10 days of expected payouts... they're just spread out over 15 days Smiley

Good luck with your rental!!!  I really want to give that BTC to somebody for Christmas!

You *could* just give it to me Smiley    I'm hoping a block shows up!

This is also a PPLNS pool so yes.  Any work you put in towards the next block will count towards any rewards received.

Outside Philadelphia on the PA side or NJ?  I've worked in King of Prussia.

Also, the pool is up to around 150TH!  Good luck to everyone!  Let's pop that block Smiley

On the PA side. I grew up in Havertown and then we moved out to Devon in my Middle/High School years. I spent many days being a mall rat at the KoP mall  Cool
The KoP mall... been there a few times Smiley.  I stayed in Conshohocken.  There's a great pub called Baggataway I frequented quite a bit.

Now I'm spending my work weeks in Jacksonville.  I might end up moving down to FL, too.  Getting a bit tired of the winters up north... of course, so far this year has been unreal... it's going to be 75 degrees tomorrow.

Oh... and I joined the pool party with a couple hundred TH for the next couple days.  We're up to about 450TH!

That's cool, my first real IT job was in Conshohocken right before Y2K. I got sick of the Winters too & decided I wanted to live near the beach, now it's like I'm on vacation all the time  Wink The pool is rocking, I hope we get lucky soon!

I'm in with some hash - YuenglingDude  Grin Let's get some blocks!

I drank a bunch of Yuengling this summer.  It was a special all summer long at AmVets near our camp!

It's my favorite beer & America's oldest brewery.  If you're ever in Pottsville, PA go take the tour of the brewery, it's well worth it  Wink

I will I am on other side of state in Northwest, PA.  Don't get down that way very often.

Adding 20TH to pool also for next couple days.  Smiley

Nice, I grew up outside of Philly but now I'm down in FL. We have a Yuengling brewery in Tampa too but the one in Pottsville is still the best. I've got some rentals pointed here too for a few days so we'll see what happens  Wink

Oh I will be in tampa in March.  Brandon to be exact.  Where is tampa brewery located at?

483TH...nice!

Good time of the year to come down (Spring Training & Spring Break). The brewery is on 30th street, near Bush Gardens which is north of Brandon, probably about a 30 minute drive.
