You're also a PPLNS pool with a 0.9% fee as of writing, with luck on your side, you would win... But should you ever get a bad streak.... Sad

Quite a few of the miners on the pool are also rig renters who prefer paid per accepted share than having their earnings ninja'd out from under them by someone, with luck, directing large volume prior to a block being found.

You do realise that there is no statistical basis for that?
It's actually bullshit and a complete lack of understanding of PPLNS.

Meanwhile BAN is paying out an extra 10% so eventually they'll either go broke and the pool will shutdown, or they'll stop paying the 10%.

Yes your arguments are FUD or misdirection

You forgot to test against kano.is

Due to luck we've paid out 200% for anyone mining since the start (~1.5 months)

More than 200% for anyone who started just before the long 10 block run of under 100% at the moment

Transparent? See the entire source code for the pool on bitbucket

Do we hide where the extra BTC came from?
No.
It is simply luck so far and yes that will eventually change.

We don't say we are paying an extra X% out of magic - it's simply been pool luck so far.

P.S. I wrote the driver for the X3 Cheesy
