Following my last post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2159012.msg29724361#msg29724361) where i tried to check multiple pools and when and how they are paying i continue with this week testing:

Some observations:
  • all values are approximate; day1 was in fact half a day, that's the day i voted, so it's not so important;
  • this is somehow irrelevant because daily pay is correlated with how many blocks that particular pool forged in that day; this is only for testing of pools. plus if a pool has too many votes the payout will be smaller, so try to spread your votes as much as possible;
  • even though all animals pool (from alligator to lobster) (https://semux.info/pool) is the most professional with everyday pay and a great website, they have a very big fee so i will remove all my 650 votes;
  • last week i tested generals (general01-04) pools they never paid me until this week in the middle of the week (0.36 once, for 100 votes last week). i found their website (http://semuxpool.info/) and minimum payout is 0.5. i won't vote for them anyway, too big fee 18%;
  • i wil remove all my votes from pools with more than 8% fee. i think that is too much and i won't help them. i'm still waiting for pools with 1-2%, that's a standard in cryptocurrencies pools. Animals fee of 25 is way too high;
  • you can check user levyashin post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2159012.msg29319963#msg29319963) he is keeping a great list of pools and fees. Or go to official discord (https://discordapp.com/invite/qQVckKZ) and there's a channel #pools if any questions;
  • semux has 2 very good block explorers https://semux.info/explorer and http://semuxchain.info/;
  • if anyone can make me a good offer for 1300 votes PM me Smiley (VOTES only, i'm not selling).
Nice calculation and comparison. Surprised to see the big difference among pools. It is time to look for pool with low fee.
