Re: [1450 TH] BitMinter.com [1% PPLNS,Pays TxFees +MergedMining,Stratum,GBT,vardiff]
Hey folks. I'm considering adding my 3 S3's to Bitminter. Should I create separate workers for each or point them all to the same worker? Along with that, what difficulty should I be set at? ( If I point them all at 1 worker, should it be something like 1528?) Sorry, I'm a newb to Bitminter and using multiple miners. 
Separate workers means you can see if one goes down, but if you use 1 worker it's still pretty obvious if 450 GH/s disappears.
As for minimum difficulty it's hash for the miner / 1.4 if I remember correctly, and is best set at the lower amount ( rather than combining all 3 ).
At present Bitminter is ahead of the game on luck ( profit ) , but it only comes out if you average over a month. Bad weeks & fortnights do happen, but then so do good weeks & fortnights. It's the average over a month that adds up. We ARE a lucky pool at present.
Correct me if I am wrong Doc
Thanks for the info! I figured I'll play around in a small pool for awhile. More excitement here!
No problem. The graph below shows how our payments work out:

We've just entered a period of what I expect to be 'bad times' that will probably last about 2 weeks. Then we should get 2 weeks of good times. This is based on our results so far, as shown on the graph. Peaks & troughs, good times & bad times.
During bad times the s1 miners have A LOT of trouble making ends meet. With an s3 you should be fine for making some profit in bad times. In good times you'll rake it in.
Hence why you need to keep it patient and average over a month
