if u have time u can choose more profitable coins by urself => more profit
captain obvious off

mining here is NOT the most profitable, but the easiest (until u get more than mining LTC.. u should not cry)

little switching pools have adventages by their size (til few hundred MHs), cos they can farm very low difficulty coins and make more profit
the problem is: more profit => more ppl join => less mineable coin => less profitability
+ lil coins have lil market (lil supply) => high demand ruining prices rly fast
+ lil coins simply die between 2 swithing pool actions => making it less and less valuable (transactions stop when jumpers go away)


here are some alternative:

every pool calculating profitability different way.. and tbh i dont like most of them (getting lowest sell price from crypsy and calculating profitability with it is simply wrong... etc)
+sometimes i dont know why they mining 1-1 coin (there is like 0 supply.. or calculated profitability with wrong/outdated datas)


2nd
ppls who wanna compare pools efficiency.. u should compare them at same time/period or u'll get false numbers (like compare december numbers with today ones)

3rd
crybabies made a river cos the profit decreased last few day... did any of them following altcoins price? or just crying cos that easy?
when BTC went up $1000 again, almost all altcoin "lost" like 30-40% value (they worth ~same amount in $, but they /BTC value decreased 30-40% cos BTC value) == we get less BTC
