I see, pulled latest again. Slicing seems to have some problems though. When you move a pool under 43.5% from info to mine, it will start mining on it for about a minute before switching over to a better pool. For example in my case, I switched over BTCPool24 which was at 40%, and it mined it for a minute even though mtred was at 15%

I'm seeing some very bad behavior right now:
MtRed = 7% Bitcoins.lc = 43%
I start bitHopper up with bitcoins.lc on info, and when I mark it as mine, bitHopper leaves mtred to mine at bitcoins.lc. When I mark bitcoins.lc back as info, it continues to mine there until I restart bitHopper.
I'm on the latest version

I've now lost $ 4000 because of their incompetence.
You have not explained how it is their incompetence yet. I understand your frustration, $4,000 is not a small amount to lose. However, they are probably not to blame. Do you reuse your password in multiple places (including any pool you mine at). Is it a strong password? Does anyone else know it? Are you sure you don't have a keylogger or any other form of spyware? MtGox can only do so much to prevent unauthorized access, the rest is up to you.

I hope everybody isn't completely sworn off Bitclockers - they've found 4 blocks today. And look who one of their top workers has been: gnaget are you hopping them or riding 247? Hasn't been a bad time to be 247, tbh. Also, I've been running with Cherry Picker on more and more rigs for the last day or so. BitClockers doesn't seem to block, delay, QOS, etc. using CP. Interesting data point. I've been hopping them with mine_friendly.

Oh well, fantastic choice to put pool.cfg in the repository after it was used as a custom user configuration. I had several customized pool configurations there, not to mention all the usernames and passwords. Now everything is lost during the pull.
A warning to everyone: backup your pool.cfg before pulling or commit it to the repository and merge, otherwise it's los!
Ouch man, that sucks. I'm glad I haven't pulled it yet

what is "mine_friendly" and how it works?
It is a way to mine hopper friendly pools, in hopes that it'll give hoppers a bad name. Some people are more interested in squeezing every last percent of efficiency more than being good community members. What it does is hop the pool normally, leaving after 43%, but when they have particularity bad blocks (> 200% difficulty) and there is nowhere to hop, it jumps to them to help get a new block.

Is bitcoins.lc playing games again? - web site says 9,987,464 rounds, json says 138,973
Maybe, or they could just be delaying the update on the website. They usually delay stats updates for 0-3600 seconds. If it reaches 200-250k shares and the website doesn't update then there is probably trickery afoot. Yea, there is trickery I think. I remember the 126183 number from last time he started messing around. Apparently he set the same number of shares this time. Weird. I disabled them for the moment. I think he is fking around so hoppers would help with the longer round. Ironically, if he didn't fk around he'd probably get mine_charity miners. Seems to me the question of ethics is being turned around. Faking stats is now the unethical thing, hopping is just an alternative lifestyle. Although, don't use mine_charity yet, there is a bug with it and they don't get picked up for regular mining. Its fixed, just waiting for it to get picked up by c00w

Currently most of the lost profit was due to shares being submitted to the wrong pool (a few % less) but anyways - as the earnings are enourmously higher than expected if you hop several pools it still paid off.
Update to the latest version, I think you'll be quite pleased

]there must be some sort of lag time when connecting to a new server in which your miner is doing no work. This lag IMHO probably eats up the tiny advantage.
There was a small lag up until yesterday when you'd end up with stales, but that has been fixed and now miner switch seamlessly between pools
