Bonus from friends that need validation: 0.02876408 BTC (I have 78 pool members)

Last time I looked i had an estimated 0.30 from my mini-pool members due which we were told would be doubled...

And it seems that the est. friend bonus is always 95% lower when actually paid.

@Oldminer: When you were showing screenshots of your estimated payout from your minipool, I'll admit I was somewhat confused when you were showing around 0.3 BTC when I had between 4-5x your hash rate in my minipool for the entire duration and I was only showing 0.11 BTC. It seems likely that there was a calculation error in the minipool payout for some of you - but there wasn't for me.

It seems like a bit of wishful thinking to purely look at that 0.3 BTC number and not calculate the following: If I hash at 600Mhash/s, and am getting 0.6 BTC, that means that I need to have 30Ghash/s in my minipool in order to receive another 0.3 BTC. To get half of your personal mining revenue in minipool revenue your minipool needs to have 50x your hash rate.

That said, I hope the calculations have been fixed and will no longer be misleading in the future. There is already enough suspicion surrounding this pool with recent events.
