Hi Marty,
Just joined your pool this morning and so far I'm impressed!   Not necessarily by the pool's performance (yet... I only just started) but more by the communication you offer here on the forum and on your pool's dashboard.

I started mining back in November and learned early on that coin switching would consume my life.  That's when I found Middlecoin... at the time a growing multipool with good payout and a community.  Unfortunately the pool operator was not very forthcoming with information and left his miners in the dark more often than not.  Looking around, I found another up-and-coming Multipool called Wafflepool.  This one looked really good in that the operator was totally responsive, active on the forums and actually seemed to care about keeping his miners in the loop.  However, fearing the Gridseed... I decided to explore VTC and other asic-resistant coins.  I've been having difficulty finding a good community for VTC... like what we had over on Wafflepool.  I joined a few pools to keep my miners busy, and the first few days it was about 4x what I was making on Waffle   Then things started to slow down... I tried to contact the pool owner but there was no forum and they never replied to email   A second pool I mined for just disappeared with my coins... so I've been investigating p2pool and running my own server to connect to... but the research has been slow.

So... all this to say, I'm encouraged by the possibilities it appears your pool will offer. 

Let's find some blocks!!
