Re: [800 GH/s 0% fee SMPPS] ArsBitcoin mining pool! Come join us!
Ok ya'll. BT has got the entire pool down to .57% stales because of his work to get poolserverj up and running on both servers. If nothing else, put your donation % at your normal rate + the % he is saving you on stales by getting the new server technology up and running!
And obviously that couldn't be done without shadders writing PoolServerJ to begin with.
Therefore, I propose the following.
The last full UTC day (October 3rd), 2.85 BTC were donated on ArsBitcoin. This is about what it costs to run ArsBitcoin on a daily basis (perhaps a tiny bit less) with the current exchange rates and server setup.
Any donations over 2.85 BTC per day, through Oct 7th (UTC) will be sent to shadders to help support his PoolServerJ efforts.
So, that is about 3.5 days to increase your donations and help him out!
As an example, lets say Oct 4th ends and the total donations come out to be 3.5 BTC. That means I would send 3.5 - 2.85 = 0.65 BTC to shadders for the day, along with the excess for the next 3 days as well.
Oh, and October 8th is my birthday. Just saying...
you could increase your donations that day too or something 
Alright, so not great results for Shadders, most likely because no one knew about this

This results in only 0.59 BTC, heh. So... I will send off a 5.59 BTC donation to shadders so that he at least gets something.
On more positive notes, check out the last few days! Barcode (l1l1l1l1l1l1l1l1l1ll1111l1l11 or whatever
) has been donating at 20% (maybe more, but I was away most of the weekend.) He is now the top donor on the charts! https://arsbitcoin.com/statsDonate.phpThanks!
