I mine on Eclipse, it has been great, although the US server has gone down twice in 2 months. No biggie, I just switch to the EU server and it's all good. My first pool was Slush, then Deepbit, now Eclipse.

ozcoin has never gone down for me. Bitminter had a few issues in the past when he was updating the server/api, but even when the webserver died the mining server was still operational.

I mine on Slush since the begining (Dec 2010), it was the first pool created, the guy is very present, professional, and act quickly if needed.  I'm very satisfied in that pool, nice website, all fine for me...

Slush rules `;)

Been mining on Slush since i got into bitcoin a month ago. steady payouts, Slush is responsive and friendly when you have a question or concern.

Slush is still hoppable Wink

Just sayin...

Wow, MaxBTC are the lowest ping time for me too ~25ms, considerably lower than the others, and I've got Fiber to the premises.  Looks like I'll be joining MaxBTC.


I personally prefer MaxBTC because their site looks really nice and I love their graphs. They use DGM for payout as well and they're currently the pool with the lowest ping for me (30 ms Smiley). Their only downside is that they keep transaction fees. Undecided

if miners get lots of 0.01BTC payments they will pay higher txn fees when they go to spend the coins from their wallets due to the combining of a lot of small inputs to make a transaction.


Is that how that works?  I've been wondering why some of my transfers incur a fee and some others don't!  I just wasn't curious enough to google it Tongue

Good thing I set mine to payout at 1BTC when my hashes got over 1GH/s

Also, I'm pretty happy with Eclipse, not tried anything else
yep, thats how it works
no need to google - there is a whole Bitcoin wiki full of useful Bitcoin info
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_fees
I would have thought its a pretty important thing for miners - oneday it is where the pay for mining will come from.

Der, should I pay a fee or not.. Der dee der...
Put another way, do you want to pay a small fee to support the pool and get paid transaction fees or pay no fee and not get paid transaction fees (and potentially lose the pool in the future)?

The main reason I like Eclipse for is the ability to instantly sell your NMC for BTC through the pool itself:)
no hassle getting a wallet and going to an exchange etc..

I don't want to troll, but the main reason is the easy way of convert a 1% of your rewards?

At least, you have a reason  Wink, I'm mining at EMC, even this last unlucky days and I don't know why.

Last time I change EMC to Litecoin because of bad luck, and next day luck reach again over 50%, so I am still in EMC, or better I must leave so luck will back to all of you?

Regards

Well I have tried many 0% fee pools, this is a comparison between the 0% fee I tried Smiley
Though I do not think the pool has anything to do with the luck.
If you have a suggestion for another 0% fee pool? please enlighten me Smiley
afaik eclipse is the highest hashing power pool of the 0% ones. right? more hashing power means a bit less variance iirc.
