Just a comment about profitability. Remember that its not just determined by how well other altcoin are performing against LTC but it also highly depends on the LTC/BTC exchange rate. We get paid in BTC not LTC after all. On march 3 the exchange rate was .0205. Today its .02529. Thats a 23% decrease in profits right there! Also the prices of both LTC and BTC have increased in the past few days. If the graphs displayed were in $/MH/day things would nearly look so bad.
That's a more than fair observation, to which my answer is:
Can we be paid in LTC if we choose please? I asked this about 40 pages ago on this thread and was told "maybe". Personally, I would like to stock up on LTC, and while I can trade BTC to it, I prefer not to pay the fees if I can avoid it - I am a very small miner (700 KHash) and this matters to me.

EDIT: And yes I know I would receive the same payout
I just would like to HODL LTC at the moment.
