While it may be somewhat difficult, it is possible to get the movie clip out of the video & attempt to match it to similar videos online automatically. I could technically create a bot/script for this. If you install a service like CloudFlare, it may help to prevent against this. Also, when you generate the clips, add some sort of watermark over the videos (this will also help w/ copyright potentially)

Yeah there is a small water mark on the bottom left of each part of the movie clip when it is shown in the video, maybe it could be bigger

Are you manually releasing a new video every week & then the first person to guess it wins?

Yeah that is one part of the game, in which he won the first prize twice in a row
but the curiouser part is the 2nd prize winner which is randomly picked from all the right answers after the first prize is won

for example, if 10 people play for the 2nd prize and 5 give the correct answer, then 1 out of those 5 players is chosen at random to win the 2nd prize

He won the 2nd prize 4 times which means either, only 2 or 3 or people have  made guesses and he got a little lucky
or the random number generator is bad and not being very random or he is cheating some how, some other way,  mostly on the 2nd prize some how

so if you or anyone know any white hats that can figure out what is going on, let us know, because we want to have a fair game in which many  different people can win every week
and not just the same person over and over again

thanks

When I get a chance & get some time, I'll take a look.
I'll contact you via PM if I need any additional info. It's possible he won by luck, but 4x in a row is a bit odd.

Someone has figured out a way to cheat and win the game

https://5secondmoviequiz.com

1BCH reward to anyone that can find out how they are cheating

I'm not saying this is necessarily how the cheater is doing this, but it is technically possible.
There's no way for us to know how the cheater is "cheating" without letting someone technical have access to your site, look at the logs, IPs & requests, etc.

Also, make sure all entry forms require a captcha & there aren't any entry forms without.

What was the first movie? I am curious I couldn't figure it out Sad


The first movie was.... The Apartment

I thought it was The Apartment too but when I tried entering that when it was first up I kept getting it wrong so then I figured I was incorrect HAHA Is your site related to http://5secondmoviequiz.qseksolutions.com/??

What do you mean you kept getting it wrong?  How many times per day did the website let you enter an answer? There should be a limit of entires per day per user

thanks for letting us know

I have one question- how does the owner make money?
I see no ads, no ways of monetizing the site and I do not  believe in charity and do not really want to check the site's code for i-frames


One might think that it has something to do with their YT channel as you have to subscribe to get the reward, but they have only something like 13 views and 15 subscriptions.
The strategy doesn't seem to be working. If the site has a similar number of entries it's never going to earn anything for them.
It's not a bad way to popularize BTC. You get engaged mentally and have a chance to get rewarded.

they would have been much better off paying 5$ for views and subscription
and saving themselves trouble and time creating a site
if it is for the sole purpose of promoting a youtube channel and popularising bitcoin,then I say, well done!
lets hope they achieve whatever their goal is in this case
but once again- I do not believe in charity ,so if I do not a clear business model I start getting uncomfortable
and put my wallet into the inside pocket of my jacket

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

Check it out now: https://5secondmoviequiz.com ! Multiple currencies to win and  Instant Withdrawals!

All you have to do is to guess the movie name,

New and unique concept. But how you will make money out of it considering people are allowed to play for free?? Even with ads, will you be able to recover the prize money? I am asking from the business sustainability point of view.

not really new or unique, there were sites like that before, particularly satoshiquiz
only you could get general knowledge questions as well as movies, rock music questions etc.
here its only movies questions and also you can only get one answer in 24 hours
and I have one question- how does the owner make money?

How come the site claims that it pays $10 in Crypto when it actually pays out less than $5?
Are you a previous player? seems like you already test out the quiz game site.On having $10 per guess i dont see that it can really generate income on its owner on ads revenue.
How is this possible? and also this thread shouldnt really be on gambling board but rather on give-aways or micro earnings.

I really like the concept but, we are missing the gambling part here. I don't see anything related to gambling.Seems like a weekly quiz website.

Thanks glad you like the idea and think it is  new and unique

That is a good question

As per to recover the prize money, maybe a combination of ad revenue, and maybe sponsors if enough users are interested in playing

We also got into Dogecoin and then Bitcoin in December 2013, so there is a small stash to pay out prize money for many many months to come

I admire the concept but why is this in the gambling section? Does a user need to deposit money first to be able to join the quiz? If not then this is more like a faucet.
I know similar get-paid-to apps with a concept like this and there are people out there who actually play them. It's quite entertaining specially if there is a competition involved.

Thanks will post  to the other section,

The concept basically same as satoshiquiz, an old micro earning site where people may earn free satoshi by answering question and compete with others to answer it faster. It has nothing to do with gambling because people does not risk their money here. So it should be moved to micro earning sub board then give more details on the main post about the prizes, it would attract more users.


Thanks will post to the other section,
