Not gonna lie...I started playing this game because its simple...I send coin to an address and post my id as verification and wait a week. I guess if a bunch of extra bonus stuff gets implemented and I benefit from it at some point...cool. Otherwise, if things get too complicated I'll probably lose interest and head somewhere else. Is anybody gonna miss me? No. But just puttin my two pennies...er...coins anyway, out there Tongue

It's still simple. Just like a real life lotto, you simply buy a ticket (one or many, it's up to you.) Then you wait a week. Either you win, and you get the prize sent to your bitcoin address, or you don't win. You don't even need to post any verification as the blockchain is proof and verification that you got a ticket.

It only gets complicated when you want to figure out the best strategy to buy as many tickets as possible, thereby increasing your chances of winning.

People like to think, when all they really need to do is just buy a ticket, as you can't win a game if you don't join it.

Does that make sense?

The best strategy is to max out. If you can buy 20 BTC, do it. That gives you more than 3000 (three thousand) tickets if you bought it early, and the other players who want a chance of winning will buy more. The pot gets bigger, faster. But you have the best chance of winning. (until another player decides to buy more tickets than you.)

Of course, this is gambling, so don't put in what you can't afford to lose.

I will post tomorrow the confirmed tickets. From just eyeballing it, there are at least 26 or 28 tickets. Jackpot is 0.31689 BTC.

Yeah, address based. It could be like:

1 bonus ticket every 8 tickets
UP TO 1/6th of the amount of tickets you paid for (does not count bonus) previously

For example, say you buy 15 tickets in one round (doesn't matter how much you get as bonuses). The next round, you can get up to 2 bonus tickets, if you buy 16 tickets (total: 18 + other bonuses). Next round, you can still get up to 2 bonus tickets, if you buy 16 tickets.

hmmm.. will do some test numbers and see how that works out. This can apply to all non-winners this round. But people better have control of their addresses, because if they buy new tickets from new addresses (because that's how bitcoin-qt works without coin control) then they don't get repeat bettor tickets.

You won. You should tip the dealer. hehe. Joke only. No need to do that.

EDIT: I'm stupid.

There should be a repeat better bonus! Encourages people who lost to play again.

This would be fun. It'd also most likely increase the pot as they will want to continue playing.

You should really tip the dealer. heheheh..

Ok, discuss, how does this repeat better bonus work? I'd base it on the previous game's bitcoin addresses? Too late for this one, but maybe for Number 6 I could. And there has to be a limit or it's not something that gets higher for every new game.

I'm busy at work today, so just watch the jackpot. It's 0.31 now.

Sorry. Different time zones, I was eating my lunch.

Hey, you can always send it back if you don't want it. 0.50 BTC gets you 50 regular tickets and 16 worm tickets, for a total of 66, if it's in before the next block bracket.

Yeaaaah, tad too dangerous for me right now, I already have to make up gambling losses and this lottery nearly has made me positive, so yeah.

Ok. OP now has current rules. I will simply edit that for the next time. That's a better place to put all the info. Updates or tickets or comments or suggestions and everything else will go to a new post. Payment has not yet confirmed, but don't wait for it. Just go buy tickets already. I may have to increase the transaction fee next time. I just put the minimum it wanted.

Edit: Estimated Confirmation Time    11 hours (queue position 565)

Holy Crap!. hehehe.. well, unless I double spend it, you just have to wait for it. Game 5 started.
