Please give a try to http://ckpool.org/
0% fee, 100% tx fee to miners.
... and you should make quite clear that it's a [BETA] pool which means if they lose yet another block due to bad pool code,
like they did here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1876330.msg20118127#msg20118127
you lose again.

Nowhere does it clearly say they "lost a block" because the pool didn't submit to the network, a valid block, that was found by a miner ... shadowing the simple clear truth of the matter.
Pools don't find blocks, miners find them based on the data provided by the pool, and miners even know when they find them.
Pools are supposed to submit them to the network, since miners don't have all the information necessary to do that.
(it's too much information to process and transmit without causing major processing delays in a miner ... and also would require every miner to have a full, reliable, fast bitcoin network connection ... which is what you pay the pool to do for you ...)
