ohhh ok, thank you but i dont see how its exploitable, without masses and masses of hash on the pool for long periods, not solved a block in 4 months but shares have stayed about the same give or take, if i had regular big hash power i wouldnt be running prop, but as its only a small pool, i thought it would be fairest Smiley

There's a lot written on it, and it can be a significant profit optimiser for any miner on a proportional pool.

I had a whole blog about pool hopping proportional pools at one point,  theres a post explaining it there (somewhere): https://howtohop.blogspot.com

yeah thanks for the link but i looked a while ago at the pool hopping and came to the conclusion its just software, which if its wanted badly enough it will be broken, kind of like this hopping situation, i cant help but wonder how many of these rental places have their own pools and are hopping back and forth when potentially solving the blocks, its part of the reason i think its been built to fail :/ but its still my hobby and many others and will live as long as we keep it alive Smiley
Hopping has no predictable effect on reward on DGM, PPLNS or PPS.
