October 4th - Added link in OP to rewards comparison. Also adjusted the fee from 3.5% to 2.5% until pool is 2000 PH in size.

I should have them up tomorrow or the next day. Working around my work schedule and that will give me 5 or 6 consistent days to compare against. Considering the size of slush and how that should bring a near consistent reward, I may try and compare against them also in the future. In theory they should be a higher paying pool, but still subject to luck and variance.

Well my month is complete. This will be my final review on the experience, the reward comparison and my overall impression of NovaBlock.com

First I will say they definitely want to remain competitive, over the course of my review they decided they would also be implementing merged mining of NMC. This will keep them competitive in the PPS+ pool arena as it's offered on pools such as ViaBTC. I personally didn't take merged mining rewards into consideration, as I am only concerned with the BTC comparative for now. Looking at my rewards comparison you can see that I earned    + 1.74% BTC using NovaBlock over the course of the month. This will be mostly due to a 2.5% fee with Novablock, for anyone who begins mining with them before they hit 2000PH, as ViaBTC has a fee of 4%.

Payouts were received with no issue. The reward earned is what I was sent and received in my wallet. So there were no fees deducted from my earnings. There is flexibility in setting your payout threshold, I used .01 for my rewards and once my final portion of a day is received I will change it to .005 for my final payout. I don't expect any issue but will update if something goes wrong. I do wish the payout threshold was visible next to the payout address on the rewards page. This will help people navigate their with more ease as it's "hidden" within the address Edit page.

The App. I really liked this feature. I was able to check in and confirm hashrate or double check payouts being made. It was particularly useful near the end of my review as I could check what was wrong when I received my "Low Hashrate" warning and "Miner Down" warnings. These were easily setup in the main dashboard.

Overall if you are a miner that wants to use a PPS+ system then I would recommend this pool. If you are interested in dealing with Merged mining rewards then I would wait until they implement NMC.

Things that need to be addressed or suggestions for improvements.

1) As mentioned above, if a worker name is incorrectly entered I would expect the pool to reject the shares. This will help miners notice an issue, and is a more honest way of doing business.
2) When merged mining is implemented, either cash out the coins yourself and provide miners with an equivalent BTC reward. This would be beneficial for those that don't want the hassle of selling these coins. Convenience is key.
3) Implement the example of what your miner should look like somewhere visible on the dashboard. This could be a generic mock setup including the Stratum address, Miner setup, and password.
4) More clarity on what the the transaction portion is in your PPS+ system. Is it set in stone or will it adjust if transaction fees increase? There have been several times in the last few years where the transactions add 10-20% reward for the block finder. It would be nice to know you get a piece of that, should it happen.
5) Leave your fee at 2.5%. This will provide you with a great advantage over other pools.

6) My biggest advice would be to offer PPLNS with a lower fee. Your pool is a good size for that and it is a very attractive feature to many miners, especially if you a large enough to reduce variance.
