My apologies to the miners, but if there is to be any blame, direct it where it is due: the VPS host has shutdown and deleted my instance
WTF! Please tell us which host this is. Everyone should stop using it. Shutting down and
deleting your instance without notice, that's just unacceptable.
I agree to your payout idea, though I'm afraid that I mined only a few shares on the last day (you are my backup pool), and all the shares I could on the day before (where it was my primary pool). So anything you pay to me I will happily send to muyoso.
