Not possible.
However, as I said on that thread, there's a number of reasons why to to it - none of which are a loss to the owner of the mining hardware.
... and other reasons as listed there.

Offer them for sale with a condition that the new owner will mine on Kano pool!

Colocation maybe??? I know alot are full, but you just might find an open spot.

List them on e-bay or one of the selling threads here. Might as well recover what you can from them.

I also did a software upgrade to KDB to do full share hashing/checking and difficulty comparison with the value from the ckpool software and reran it on a test server, on over 3 months of data from before the bad luck to after it.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.24423914
This found no problems with the shares submitted ...
So either the end of October was simply just bad luck ... or there's something wrong with nicehash.
Either way, nicehash is a bad idea to rent from since you have an expected loss.
If you're the gambling addicted type
... there's a few pools that suit that due to bizarre payout schemes that are luck based, or solo, which is even more risky with anything under about 20-30PH now March 19, 2018, 04:15:44 PM

Hello, everyone. I just wanted to announce that in approximately nine hours, I'm going to take a snapshot of the Kano Pool Stats page. Everyone mining on Kano Pool at that time with a hash rate between 100 GHs and 50 THs inclusive has one entry into a drawing held immediately thereafter. The drawn entry will receive approximately 96 hours (~4 days) of my old S3 mining under their Kano Pool User Name.
Right now, the plan is to do this on a weekly basis.
If anyone affected by this wishes to opt out, please pm me.
The miner providing the equipment for this Small Miner Bonus Hash Giveaway will not be entered, so everyone else's chances are a little better.
The provider of this in no way warrants that they will be liable for outages or hash not supplied due to circumstances beyond his/her control.
In the event of any dispute, the final word belongs to Kano.
MINE ON WITH KANO-SAN!!!!!
That’s awesome. I just added a few more miners so I don’t qualify anymore but hope it goes to good use.

Kano, I just want to thank you for your time and dedication to the pool. I have learned much about bitcoin mining since joining Kano pool. Thank you to all who contribute here too. The community is great.

For anyone mining to nonce.kano.is with Asicminer Tubes
I've switched it over to a different server 4 days ago, but the 'old' server is still running.
This means if you have reconnected since then, you'll have switched to the 'new' server.
So far half the users on there have switched over, the other half still mining to the 'old' server.
At 04:00 UTC (about 7.5hrs from now) I'll stop the 'old' server from accepting mining and connections, and the rest will switch over to the 'new' server.
This will just make the miners still on the 'old' server do a reconnect to the 'new' server.
Mine on!

Looking for a good deal on Hashing contracts.
I got ripped off by https://www.cryptomining247.com/ last year.
They payed out for a couple months then zip zero zilch!
I like the idea of renting hash power over time and I don't have several thousand dollars to invest in machines right now so...
Anyone know a reputable site?
Thanks in advance!

I currently have about 5 months left on contract. Depending on a few factors, I will probably break even.
I won't outright call them scams; most operate on what have been called here "Chinese business principles". That being said, I only put into it what I was prepared to totally lose and hoped for the best. Not exactly a scientific investment plan, but....
MINE ON!!!

Most hashing contracts (not all but most) are scams of some sort. If they are legitimate, once you do the math they won't be cheap and there will not be any assurance of return. In this business, like most businesses, you can't get something for nothing. If a hashing contract is legitimate you will have to pay them an amount such that they can bank on a return on their machines - and you take all the uncertainty of bitcoin price falling or difficulty rising.
Nicehash is mostly legitimate (not strictly a hashing contract but a rental of hashpower), and once you run the numbers it works out that you will pay very close to your expected return.
