Thanks, I see my balance was paid out.

I tried the other two pools listed music coin and unfortunately their hash rate isn't enough to make it profitable for me to mine there.

Its like the chicken and egg problem, there are other pools, but how to get miners to come if they won't make a decent income.

With the recent pumping of just about every coin, the profitibility of just about every ethash coin has plummeted as so many new miners are joining in the feeding frenzy.

I found the sample problem mining eth and etc, hash power is concentrated in a few pools, you just don't stand a chance making much on the smaller pools. We all paid dearly for our hardware and ongoing electricy and the constant checking for down rigs etc that we can't afford to miss days of making hardly anything.

Those big pools are so over crowded, the payouts are getting lower and lower, nowhere near what whattomine says.

Just a FYI that is not necessarily true. You make smaller amounts with more frequent payouts but in the end you actually stand to make more mining solo or on other pools. This however is affected by the pools ops and how they maintain the pools. For example ethermine is too large to mess with and they are doing some un ethical things on the chains. Block withholding is one example and uncle reward is another by submitting shares ahead on the chain. I hope music is patched these holes unless the litterally just forked eth. If so expanse would have been a better option.
