I've been mining here for 2 days now with no issues at all. If anyone is looking for a solid pool this one's pretty good so far!

I'm definitely digging EarthCoin, can't wait until it starts getting more attention and exchange listings.

70 MH/s and 400% average completion (this means 4x the time it should take to mine a block)

http://eac.hackshardgaming.net/ 130 MH/s and 110% average completion (this means it takes how long it should to mine a block)

Not exactly the best pool...lol

So is this the best pool to mine at right now?

Also, the fee here is 2.5% vs 1%

Can someone give me a link to a good explanation on what attributes to look for in a mining pool?

Hackshardgaming is finding blocks on average 4x as fast as the other pool mentioned. So say you get 10k coins per block and normal time to find a block is one hour. So on the first pool you would be getting 10k every four hours and paying out 100 coins of that, whereas on the hackshard pool you would be getting 10k every hour and paying out 250 coins of that. (These numbers are made up to show the difference in pools, you'll need to make your own estimates for hashrate vs reward)

I can confirm that hackshardgaming is definitely a superior pool now that I've tried it. I've been there for maybe 2 hours already and have earned significantly (perhaps 3x so far) more EAC than at the other pool. Good tip!

I personally find the VirCurPool to be the most consistent. Its averageing a block in less then 2 minutes.  Given that the coin says a block should be found on the network ever 60 seconds, that means that pool is getting over half of the found blocks.
