+1 on xpool. Tried it and loved it !! Just have to get used to shifts thing if you've never done it before. Its great! It works. It rocks! Does wonders for DRK.

Keep up the great work guys

Oh, do you have to keep an eye on the shifts? I mean, I'm really getting close to a payout at slush's pool, and want to switch to xpool so I never have to think about it again, LOL. Also, I'm hoping that I can do a little better with someone managing my hash, LOL. But I don't think I'll be able to be "on top of it" if we have to manually switch when there is a shift to another coin?

It's all automated. The pool chooses which coin get mined and everyone's hash is automatically transitioned, without interruption, to the next coin. Those coins are then exchanged automatically and the BTC/LTC proceeds are then used to buy up DRK, then your are sent your share of DRK that is relative to the % you contributed.

You do have to give it some time to "ramp" up and get a solid spread of shares. You only get paid for blocks you've contributed to and have matured. So if the pool finds blocks during your shift, you may not actually received the DRK for those coins until the next shift if the block hasn't matured before the end of the shift.

That being said... someone on the darkcointalk board was happy to see when they had to move and turn off all their miners, they actually still earned dark on the 2 days they were moving because some of the share they had contributed to, didn't get confirmed for a couple days. That includes if you mined on a coin and no block was found, it all carries over.

Cheers!

Thank you very much. I can't wait to move over, but until I get a payout at slush's pool, I'm all tied up Sad

Sorry it took me so long to thank you, hope you see it
