They were the ones withholding on Slush.
They obviously were testing their mining proxy/system live mining on Slush and it was fuxored, withholding blocks.
Testing code on a live pool means you are asking every other miner on the pool to risk losing BTC with your testing, rather than risk it all yourself.
Scum bags.
They should have solo mined to test their code until they found some blocks and thus knew it could at least do that.
I'd not go near them.
Though ... I guess I should try find out where they mine from and block them ... ... ...

Were they withholding just lately? This could explain Slush's luck numbers lately... I understand variance and high/low cycles being normal.. but these numbers have just been terrible:
That being said, I just switched over some more hash to Kano today.
You can read more about it on Slush pool's page, under the news section. But it announced back in Feb and he was very vague about the particulars. It wouldn't surprise me though if someone else was doing the same thing to that pool. They have been very slow to respond to problems. Unlike Kano.is
Kano is very transparent about issues and is actively involved in the thread and answering concerns.
