If this pool has handled payouts like this since the beginning, that's just plain old sloppy coding. Of course, the opposite of what's happening now should have happened during the last difficulty change. Can anyone confirm if their pending payouts actually went up by 6.14% on 1/27?
How you can code a pool and not account for changes in share values due to network difficulty adjustments is rank amateurism.
Confirmed...
No payouts from 1/22 to 1/29, then payment on 1/29 at the 6.05724720410961E-010 rate. Too bad I didn't have as many miners pointed to BAN at that time (I only had one miner pointed here part time). This time though I'm looking at a much bigger loss.
Hahaha... oh that's just pathetic. I'm not laughing at you, so please don't take my laughter that way. I'm laughing because of the exceptionally poorly implemented payout logic code that doesn't bother to handle network difficulty adjustments. Looks like somebody forgot to QA their code...
