Well, i expected more participation.. Undecided

I thought was interesting to have a really user-friendly pool.

Let's explain my idea:
- 0,00% fee pool, only donations.
- a impressive numbers of alt-coins on SCRYPT method, with auto-switch between most profitable
- auto-conversion to the most famous coins, like LTC
- automatic withdraw, every 0.05LTC totalized
- no registration is needed

Is it possible to do?? Should be great.
Come on guys!

Well now we have been running a while i can give you some more feedback, you will spend a serious ammout of time in the configs making changes etc, as for your "idea" i dont want to wee on your perade, but your offering nothing thats not available already, hell even were implementing very simmular, we settled on 1% fees for now, and users can choose to donate more if they wish.

Some other things to consider.

MPOS Cron on a LARGE pool is in efficent, and it routinly takes 10mins for us to complete the cron, now playing with configs we are getting it down lower and lower but its a slow process.

Network make sure your network is decent, even a minor ammout of latency can have implications for the pool

Security whatever you do secure the servers as best you can firewall is A MUST

Prepair for Denial Of Service, weve been hit twice so far with denial of service not that it got em anywhere theres not enough firepower to bring down the network we use because they have a biblical ammount of DDOS protections

Server Resorces.
DOnt just install 20 pools and hope it will work, i got a rude awakening, the number of users hashing has a direct implication to server load for every 10,000 Khs on our system we see a load avg increase of between 0.8 and 1.2 right now one pool is holding a load avg of 2.5ish give or take, were looking at a maximum of 3 pools to a server to leave plenty in the tank for the busy periods and influx when BTC hits the good news etc.

I wish you all the best with your project and i hope the above will slow you down a bit, dont rush it take your time and learn, youll find plenty of people out there to help you test your pools etc, dont install and go public youll be bald in a day!!!!

All the best
