Zerg Pool is a complete scam. I mined afor 24 hours using multi-algos with 12 GTX 1080s and got 0.00005 btc. All the while my miner said I was cranking out between 300-400 MH/s on Lyra2v2. I was mining on Verge today using Zerg Pool when it was 10 times more than all the other coins and I made less in 12 hours than I did in 2 hours using zpool. Dont fall for 0.5% fee gimmick and go to a better pool.

Now Awesome Miner just introduced a feature from Options-> "Statistics" called "Adjust reported revenue for actual payout performance". After you enable that feature you will notice that for many algos zergpool is at 60%-70% payout compared to advertised. You will find for the same algo much better payout for other pools.

When you compare using Awesome Miner zergpool payout of 70% for the same algo from other pools and you see that other pools pay 90% of the amount they advertise, you will very easy understand that it is somehow better pay 1% pool fee than being scamed and have 30% being stolen from you by zergpool and advertising it as 0% fee when it is actually 30% fee.

Do some tests with real BTC wallets and you will see that is is not fair to have 30% of your revenue stolen from you.

no one is forcing you to mine at zergpool, so it is not right to say it is not fair. Yes the payout for x17 at zergpool is hovering around 70%, but that is comparable to ahashpool's x17 payout. zpool's x17 started at around 88% for me and it has steadily dropped to 83% over the course of a few days.

You have also conveniently not included the fact that x16r on zergpool has an actual pay out of 92.71% and xevan is at 98.53%.

For the profit calculations... does the software remove orphans from the stats or include them? If they are included... that would pretty well explain the X17 discrepancy for ZERG right off the bat. There are quite a few orphans being found on ZERG on X17 and very few on ZPOOL.
