Looks like Eligius is down, and we are carrying some of their backups, now at 3568178.052 Ghash/s
yea and who else got shafted with a crap payout after mining there for 5 hrs.
I really think the scoring system needs to be relooked at. Don't care if the payouts are decent.
It's total BS when all of a sudden everyone jumps onto slush with 30 mins left on a block and everyones rewards gets cut
by a third.
The only thing anti hop about this pool is it actually hurts the miners who mine the entire block and not the actual
hoppers.

agreed
wrong

without the additional power it wouldn't take 30 mins ... think about it this way
instead of getting same reward for 10h you get half of it for 5h
30 mins is an arbitrary number, swap it with anything you want. The real point
is it is fsked up that we can mine for start to end but someone jumps in with 50% or less of the block left and
get the same payout as the ones who have been onboard since the start.
It's score based not hashing power based or is it? If it's score based than my 10 hours of scoring should
weigh more than anyone who mined for less hrs. regardless of hashing power
