I found a MAX pool that does not properly weight the share difficulties and basically only counts total submitted shares, they use vardiff that starts fresh with each connection and re-calcs after 60 seconds, but during that first run I can get 200-400 shares submitted and make 5-7% of the mined block...
not exactly good sportsmanship

Nope, but like most of the MAX pools out there they are still fixing and adjusting a lot of the code for MAX and it will eventually be fixed. I'll just go back to Middlecoin at that point

Beside looking at share vs hash rates on the pool it's obvious i'm later to this game then a few people with much higher base hash rates, lol
