Let’s say a home miner is connected to a pool for a set period of time, let’s say a month.

-the pool finds 20 blocks during the period. Is the payout the same under FPPS vs scoring pool ?

My theory, can someone confirm?

-Pool luck > 100%

Scoring pool pays more since FPPS would keep reserves to equalize pay when pool luck goes under 100% later

-Pool luck = 100%

Scoring pool and FPPS pay the same. No reserve needs to be kept by FPPS

-Pool luck < 100% and FPPS has no reserves

Scoring pool and FPPS pay the same. No reserves to give out under FPPS

-Pool luck < 100% and FPPS has reserves

FPPS pays more than scoring pool. FPPS gives out reserves to get to 100%

It’s making me wonder how long it will take to build up a reserve if starting with none, because with a 250 block luck of <100% you’d think there wouldn’t be much reserves.

Definitely:how long it takes is important to know. If there’s never any reserves, as long as you stay online, it’s roughly the same. I also wonder if they look at 10, 50 or 250 block luck
