deepbit vs btcguild

[heavyb]

I recently moved my 1100 mhs from deepbit to btcguild and have a few questions to ensure I am still mining at the same, or better rate than previously.

First, the worker summary on btcguild is not accurate, it says I have not earned shares over the last hour on two workers and 53 minutes on the other, but my amount of shares this round has been increasing. Also, my estimated reward has not budged for almost 2 hours and just recently went down by .01.

I understand the danger of one pool having 50% of the network but I am concerned that I am not maximizing my mining on btcguild based on these inaccurate reports.

An explanation will be greatly appreciated.

awesome, thanks! Yea I did have payper share selected which I guess is why I do not have as clear of a picture from BTCguild. But if I am going to get a higher % of btc, and protect the network, I am all for staying with btcguild.

Thank you!

Yes I recently moved my 1.4Gh/s from Deepbit (as I discussed on the Deepbit forum) to BTCGuild as well:

-3rd largest pool at 750Gh/s so there's a block win every 80 mins or so (at current conditions) - BUT remember you get MORE per block win here...whereas at Deepbit you get little mini payouts more frequently....however:
-You get more % overall in the long run at BTCGuild because it is a 0% fee pool (although donations at your discretion)
-They've got an open book...even clearly spelling out the Balance Sheet of block wins and payouts since the pool started.
-Been rock solid for me so far...and just added another server...with plans for another(?)

Anywho..i'm done lobbying for BTCGuild...hell...doesn't have to be them...just saying what I did...if they get too big...we would need to jump somewhere else again...

There is a block list and payments list at deepbit too.
