I guess not that long, since the effort on that found block is very low, so congrats to all that participated!
A block was found btw. :)
So I checked the times you made that first comment, it appears that the last block found by VTC pool at that time was the one with 183% effort, which in simple terms means 83% of the shares were silently dropped based on where in the stack they were. It's highly likely that this is why you were seeing such a low payout and it is absolutely correct. Then you stopped mining and the next block was found the following day with a 91% effort. You would have been rewarded for all your submitted shares for that block, since you have stopped you obviously lost on some potential rewards though.
Everybody gets a fair reward for their shares under the PPLNS scheme. Some shares might be silently dropped if the shares needed to find the block exceed the expected number of shares for the given difficulty. This is not a Pay-per-share scheme.
What I meant is if you have the wallet address entered on the pool stats page, not your in your miner config.
I can see my stats just fine. Are you sure your wallet address is entered?
2 days mining, just taking a guess you were around for 4 maybe 5 blocks. The rewards were payed out for all those blocks. It's a bit difficult to assess retrospectively that far behind if you got a fair share, but I would say you did comparing your hash rate to mine and your payout to mine.
Don't trust whattomine, VTC has had difficulty swings and you are on a small pool and variance can be a bitch sometimes.
Did you read the FAQ? If no please read and let us know if you still have this question.
there is a difference between "no payout" and "no balance" .. you first accumulate balance under the minimal payout value before a payout... but yeah you need to provide more info than just a rant
wallet address
when did you start mining
when did you end mining
did you interrupt miner at any time?

Look, I mine both ETH and VTC and at the moment I am getting more reward for mining VTC, simply because the blocks are found more often than the ETH blocks at this pool. I have mined ETH previously at Ethermine and I felt my payouts were just fine. I came here, got lucky with two blocks in a short succession (variance) and I am in no way claiming Ethermine is unfair because I earned less there than here. Taking into consideration, Variance, PPLNS, the payouts are fair everywhere over a long period of time. You've been here short, for one or two blocks, claiming unfair treatment. Pardon me saying this, but to me it sounds like you just don't understand variance and how PPLNS really works. The way PPLNS is implemented here is the same way it is implemented anywhere else. The only thing that can differ among pools I guess is the size of the window, but that again would not screw anyone over a longer period of time.
