But don't you know how many pools have shut down recently due to bad luck and PPS, no seriously DON'T DO STRAIGHT PPS. I want your pool to last, Eligius's system is really the only kind of PPS that can last pretty much indefinitely without bankrupting you or ripping off your miners. Don't be fooled into thinking that people will run to you as soon as you get PPS. If you all of a sudden get popular, hit a bad round, go into debt for several hundred bitcoins. Then you basically will never recover with standard PPS method. PPS is essentially roulette where you (the pool operator) are the gambler and the player is the house.
We'll forwards the Hashpower to a different pool instead. Straight PPS was never a decision to consider. That unless the circumstances are really adequate and optimal to do so

I mean look at MTRed which required 120 blocks to go out before it payed its PPS and it still went out of business, Ozcoin is currently out of commission and removed their PPS because it was killing them. There are so many dead pools because of PPS, I mean even BitPenny (which invented PPS) died because of its usage of PPS. Edit: One last note, your server load is at 1% with only 4500MH/s ie 4.5GH/s which means you would cap out at ~45GH/s so I suggest you upgrade your servers.
This is precisely what we are working, the peak load is because the software related to the miners is not well connected to the real-time server.

What I mean is that we are thinking As a first step, redirect power to another pool until we have enough to go on our own. I was not understanding, had not looked carefully Eligius's system. Which is a very good possibility.

can you respond to my query above plz.... Are we waiting for BFL's, avalons or other ? If bfl, I might be after a refund... if avalon, what batch... If other, which BFL. so far. soooo since bfl is a scam with a never ending shipping date, this is also something that will never come to pass, and we'll all sit at 001 for ever...... I hope im wrong, but im no fan of bfl...

Awesome I am glad I could be of service pkarc, I hope to contribute to your pool and to our success. I actually ordered a 30GH from BFL and I am pretty low on the order list so when I get it I will be mining here, assuming you follow through on the changes. After you implement the system then you can lower the fee's down and as I suggested before. I have a suggestion, you might want to make the jackpot optional IE charge like a base 2.5-3% and then have the option to enable being enrolled in the jackpot for another 1% that way if people want to just use your great stats and hashpack services without paying extra for the potential jackpot they can and that should encourage faster miners to join who don't necessarily gain from paying extra just for a chance at 2btc where they could earn that themselves faster if the fee was lower. Just a thought. With the usage of the CPPSRB you can comfortably set the fee at like 1-2% and then offer entry into the jackpot for an additional 0.5-1% The 0.5-1% + the transaction fees can go into the pot for the jackpot that way you can it can pay out pretty regularly. Also to the BFL nay sayers, you are wrong they started shipping 5GH miners recently and a number of people have been receiving them, and they recently got the chips for their 25GH and 50GH set up so they can start testing and shipping those pretty soon.

All of us are waiting that BFL delivers, I'm sure this has been improving, its not a secret that it took some time during development, but I know they are focused on delivering.

You are gonna need 250gh to 1000gh/s to run your own mining pool. Right now I just mine slush with my 2.1ghash/s soon I should have 132 ghash/s hopefully when my Avalons get here . *crosses fingers and prays avalons will come soon*
