Yes I know luck is involved. However that should make payouts smaller not fewer. Correct?
It depends. If your account has a huge balance and you're getting paid hourly until it depletes, it wouldn't change the frequency (though yesterday there was significant hot wallet maintenance that lasted on & off about 8 hours).
If the pool luck is bad and you already had your full balance paid out, you would receive fewer new payouts (fewer blocks solved = fewer times your balance increases during the day).
Yes yesterday was bad, however and maybe I am just to much of a newb. When you complete a shift about every hour. Then there should be 23 to 24 payout (not to my wallet) but to the btc account. I understand spool up a and spool down. But after two months the number of pay outs, not auto payout should start to equal out. Not running behind.
Having said all of that I really like btc guilds easy of use and interface, it is to notch.
