I had been trying to compare the growing number of mining pools and their features at one point, and there wasn't a concise table that summarized them. So, I decided to put one together:
http://pastehtml.com/view/awb1vg03r.html
Please help me fill in the question marks and fix any mistakes, as well as contribute information on any pools that I may have overlooked.
Also, if you are a pool operator providing me with your info, be honest and help us out by providing me with ALL of the info (i.e. not just the green ones). That way we don't get stuck with a lot of question marks.
Thanks!

Just updated it again with another new pool, and rearranged some things.
Edit: NVM, just did some math. Disregard.
Finally updated and revised! (Sorry it took so long!)
Type: Broken Scoring
Fixed.

I'll add the last two posts later this evening.
If you don't mind, maybe a third this evening

Since we are not a "canned" operation like some pools, we don't use pushpool. We wrote our entire backend, and therefore has a much lower stale rate than any other pool. Just ask our users
I'll add the last two posts later this evening.

To clarify: The user/customer (You) does not pay any transaction fee when he/she requests a payout.
We do however add 0.01 from our own wallet to make the transaction go through faster. (Hence the INSTANT payout)
I'm not sure if we should be marked as none or not, but the user does NOT pay anything for neither using the pool or requestion payouts
EDIT:
We do not have any waiting time or unverified funds. As soon as the block is solved - the money shows up in your account

Now I'm starting to follow. I'm putting you down as "none" for transaction fee. Instead, it sounds like this practice of the pool attaching 0.01 to each transaction to speed up the payout is a feature that needs a concise name and a separate row. Is this what people are generally referring to as "instant payout"? If so, then I definitely need to revise my terms.

I think I need some clarification on what people are calling "instant payout".
When I say "instant payout button", I am simply referring to a feature allowing the user to go to their account at any time and click a button (or link, or whatever) to request AT LEAST their confirmed bitcoins be sent to their wallet right then and there. If one can ONLY get confirmed bitcoins in this manner then I qualify the "yes" with "for confirmed shares only".
This is in contrast with what some might be calling "instant payout", where there is NO waiting period to confirm one's credited bitcoins after each block is solved. I am referring to that as "no" on "share validation waiting period".
Maybe I am not using the consensus terminology here, but I think these are two distinct features that shouldn't be confused, and I'm still not sure if my info is accurate because of this discrepancy in terms.
Oh, and I just updated it again.

Bitcoins.lc has a "instant payout"-function. It's also WE that pays the transaction fee, please make a note about that.
Can you clarify? If you pay any transaction fee on withdrawal, then shouldn't you be marked as "none"?

Thanks, nice spreadsheet!
You're welcome!
You should add the size of the pool to that chart to, like hashing power wise at the time of writing or w/e. I think that is something ppl might want to know when comparing. Good job btw!
Thanks! I'm avoiding adding the size info for now because it's pretty dynamic, and the smaller pools are hard to track. I'll think about adding it in the future, though. It's pretty easy to just give a link to one of the current pie charts out there.
Maybe somewhat of a substitute could be the formation date of the pool, if I can get people to provide that?
BTC Guild was formed on May 9, 2011. Just celebrated our 1 month anniversary last week
