Any non-scrypt autoswitching pools that you know of? X11, Keccak, or adaptive-N?
I don't know of any, sorry. Maybe it's too early, too much money yet to be made in scrypt, but once ASICs kill it I'm sure some alternatives will come up.

Could you add CoinSolver?
Probably not. Adding new pools requires me to mine there myself, and stay on the pool for 1-2 weeks to gather meaningful stats. Last time I checked CoinSolver performance was abysmal so unless something dramatically positive happened recently it's quite low on my list. What about ipoMiner? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=516047.0

It would be hilarious if something like that worked on gridseeds

Last time I checked CoinSolver performance was abysmal so unless something dramatically positive happened recently it's quite low on my list. They have. Alright, then maybe you can explain this a little bit. On the stats page http://coinsolver.com/poolstats.php it shows pool hashrate is zero. Not inspiring confidence so far, but I can take that value from the front page chart (~120 MH/s). Then I take the "Est. mined BTC" value 0.425625564 and divide it by the hashrate, the result is ~0.0035 BTC per MH/s, quite low I think. What am I missing? I'm guessing the "daily" BTC values are not "last 24h" values but maybe start at some time each day. Do you know what that time is? Is there a stats page that would past payouts and hashrates? Until I can get some reasonable numbers I can't consider this pool.

Until I can get some reasonable numbers I can't consider this pool. Current Pool HashRate: 129 Mh/s It was just updated today. Last test I ran comparing Clever, it won. That was a week ago on the old system. Also, a lot of the stats are not super accurate b/c VTMiner, the dev, manually trades and updates the stats randomly throughout the day. Since I feel your resistance, I am hashing at ~1.6 Mh/s and I will report back regularly.

Added Heavycoin (HVC). Please note that its profitability is calculated based on the initial release of cgminer for AMD GPUs. Newer cgminer versions might yield better results, and there is ccminer for NVIDIA GPUs that outperforms AMD. For example - without overclocking or any extensive tuning: cgminer on 280X: 5.3 MH/s (factor of ~7 comparing to 750 KH/s scrypt on the same card) ccminer on 750 Ti: 4 MH/s (factor of ~16 comparing to 250 KH/s scrypt on the same card) In other words, if you have an NVIDIA GPU, Heavycoin is something you might want to look at. I will consider switching to NVIDIA numbers for the chart if I can make a rig ready for tomorrow. http://cryptomining-blog.com/1591-ccminer-nvidia-cuda-gpu-miner-for-heavycoin-and-fuguecoin-now-available/

After 24 hrs, I was at 0.095 at payouts last night on CoinSolver. Server was very unstable so I didn't get a great read. I am sitting at 0.015356822BTC Combined balance atm.

Over what kind of hashrate? Please give more context.

After 24 hrs, I was at 0.095 at payouts last night on CoinSolver. Server was very unstable so I didn't get a great read. I am sitting at 0.015356822BTC Combined balance atm.
Over what kind of hashrate? Please give more context. ~1.6 Mh/s, it has been running stable for 20hrs now. I am at a 0.4% reject rate. Quote from CoinSolver site on new upgrades As of March 17th, we are now running on our new and improved hosting environment. Not only that, but our pool software has also received a significant facelift. Both of these should help us with our goal to improve your profitability, and the pool's efficiency.
So what's in the new update? Glad you asked... alot of things. Most notably, the ability to mine multiple coins simultaneously has been added. The 'round' based coin mining system is a thing of the past, as we can adapt more fluidly to the various coins' profitablilty fluctuations. This should give us a distinct boost with the coins employing KGW/1 block difficulty adjustments.
Additionally, we have put in a significant amount of work to improve your accept/reject rates, which in turn improves the pool's efficiency. Hopefully you will notice in your stats as well.
We also now support custom difficulty setting via your password. You can pick your dificulty using the d=X method, where X can be 64, 128, 256, etc. Please note: your custom difficulty must be the same for all miners sharing the same BTC address!
Also, if you do not select a difficulty of your own, the pool will now choose a difficulty for each coin, in order to get the best performance.
Beyond these features, there are many little niceties, such as invalid user checking, and dynamic coin adding (no pool downtime), etc.
So, with any major upgrade, there are bound to be bumps and bugs, so by all means, if you spot one, or are effected by one, please let us know asap!
Finally, I want to thank everyone who has helped us through this whole process. Your assistance, support, feedback and encouragement has been overwhelming. I truely appreciate all of it!
Cheers,
-VTMiner

Some updates for today:
- Removed the numbers and added a link to a Google spreadsheet instead (at the bottom of the OP). - Gray area on the main chart shows one standard deviation below average, I might use that as a condition to remove underperforming pools. - An improved Heavycoin cgminer version has been released for AMD GPUs, still lagging behind NVIDIA though. I'm using AMD for comparison, but if you have a 750 Ti you should be getting better results relative to Scrypt performance.

ghash mines crap coins, and has no option to auto payout to ltc - unless I missed the settings to do so?

You missed the promotion GHash.IO had for LTC mining, which was the sole reason to include them in the chart. I wouldn't recommend using them now, but I'll keep them on for a few more days as a reference point for "pure" LTC profitability.
