You sound like those guys walking around the Atlantic City boardwalk

Ouch - that hurts!  I don't gamble and if I did AC would be the last place I'd want to go!   Grin

- the problem is that at least the casino odds & payouts stay the same..  but with mining, luck doesn't even out from one diff change to the next.   It only evens out correctly within that diff change and with this pool you only have a few rolls of the dice between diffs to even it out..
that is what kills small pools..  the need to get more spins on the wheel before a bad 'day' at the track puts you on the street.  
a bad day at a big pool is like two bad months here.  You can recover if it really is one day during a diff cycle... but here that same amount of hashing would span 2-4 diff cycles

You make a good point - with the difficulty changing a bad run may never really even out.  Nevertheless, I'll stick with Kano since his pool is fair and transparent.  
Bitcoin will go back up eventually and make it all worthwhile and if it doesn't then life goes on - its not like my life savings is tied up in this.  Smiley

Hey I wish this pool would get some life in it .. I mined here for a good 3 months but then I said a few things to try to get a spark and pretty much got the usual scorn

This pool should try all kinds of gimmicks to keep miners here..  like charge 3% fee but give 2% to whoever gets the block.  Make the gambling worth it.. could even increase the fee payout a little more each day like a jackpot and then reset after the block...  put a little graphic jackpot meter on the website that grows just like the casinos..  yeah maybe I'm that guy on the boardwalk I am talking about  Smiley
