NO, I called in two friends to help out, but its not only us.
Somebody fixed something  Cool
IDK whats going on, but yeah it seems to be normalizing.

I hope for some explanation soon  Huh

P.S. Maybe they should stop the ultracoinpool for a few hours a day, till people learn to change pools, like we did with Ultra.Nitro a few months back!
I can't take those orphan losses forever.

Something I noticed on http://ultracoinpool.info/ is that the payouts have been "slightly" less than the auto-pay amount lately. I have seen them go above the auto-pay amount on every pool and every coin I have ever used, but it's really odd to me that this pool is slightly under paying. I have not done the math to see if I am actually missing any coins or if it is just paying out slightly early.

Anyone else notice anything like that?

How "slightly" are we talking?  I was mining at ultracoinpool.info before switching from GPUs to scrypt asics at Cryptotrain.net.  I had set payouts to 20 UTC, but nearly every payout was 19.XXXXX.  After some digging, I found most it was for reaching a balance of 20.000XXXX and after the transaction fee was deducted, the total that actually arrived in my wallet was 19.XXXX (~20 - Tx Fee = ~19.9.....)

This happens more often and is more noticeable as your reward per block approaches the cost of Tx Fee-- the smaller your reward/block, the more noticeable it will be.

Something to that effect. I wasn't trying to start panic or insinuate any foul play. It was just something I noticed that has never (that I am aware of) happened before. In almost every case my payouts are slightly higher than my automatic payout threshold (probably due to lag in the payout system). Lately they have been consistently slightly below (not, much, maybe 0.1 coins or less) my payout threshold. It's not cause for alarm and I'm not trying to start anything by bringing this up, just wanted to point it out since it is out of the norm.
