Topic: A Free Lottery Site on the side (Read 1123 times)
ok, so i just edited the most simple php captcha i could find as a quick fix... let's see what happens for the longterm solution
So, it looks as if there's not much feedback to get here after all.
Anyways, I suspect we have some users who are playing the lottery with browser-scripting... claiming a ticket every 30 minutes and 15 seconds, for 20hrs a day.... that looks superhuman.
Bottom Line, even though we hate it... there's no way to keep running fair-for-all with a bigger audience and NOT using a captcha...
we will put a captcha up soon, but we are undecided yet as to which captcha solution it will be... any recommendations?

Great site! I will give you free ad space for life if you put my ad on your site.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Indeed the cheapest ad space on earth
how many daily visits do you have? we don't use any ads on other sites at all currently. the site is to incomplete to do that just yet
all i did so far was a bit of bitvisitor campaigning.

Does anyone here have a good captcha he can recommend?!
i have been thinking about CoinVisitor's One-Click-Captcha http://www.1clicaptcha.com/... did anyone here use it yet?
any other recommendations?

We have had a bot attack over night!
As a result someone managed to enter the raffle with over 1000 BTC addresses and random IPs.
To keep the raffle fair we have taken some quick measures to lock the bots out, but we also had to bulk-delete all tickets submitted between 04:40 and 10:34 (UTC) today.
Sorry for the inconvenience. If we have deleted some of your honestly claimed tickets, please leave a comment and we will do what’s possible to restore them!

It's a good start, obviously it would be better if there was higher payouts, but of course it is free after all.
Thanks Welsh! I have pumped the prize of the next round a tiny bit...
but really, i cant throw serious amounts around for free
, and the ads, well it's not really breaking even with the prizes either

Are you interested in skill games, too?
I played with some javascript code for a coin game...

sounds interesting? is it online anywhere?
i was also considering some more "fun" games but a lottery seemed like a good quickstarter
though, i have no experience in game design...

Replace the 'Livig in forward thinking' with a big 'B I T C O I N L O T T E R Y"...
Hi daybyter, thanks for your reply!
Yes! I see your point here, while it might not be the LOTTERY, we will need a clear BITCOIN in the header.
The site's current theme is actually from an old site and we haven't had the time to finish a new one yet. (Is to say: I'm waiting for the creatives
)In the meantime the lottery is a fun project, so i am out for feedback on the functionality primarily!

I also have posted this on the Newbies Forum, but well, not much feedback there -> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/win-free-btc-lifts-bitcoin-lottery-we-need-your-feedback-202880
Cheers all,
me and a few friends want to create a bitcoin related info site. We don't have any financial goals attached to this and it's really more of a hobby and out of enthusiasm for the topic.
But that's not why i am posting here
While content creation is taking forever, I have spent the past week setting up a free bitcoin lottery on the side to drive some traffic.
While there are many visitors already taking part in the lottery, dedicated feedback is very limited!
>>> http://bitcoin.lift-institute.com/lottery/
The 3rd raffle is about to end in less than a day...
...just head over there, grab some tickets for Round 3 and do me a favor, come back here, and let me know what you think!
- Is the Lottery easy to understand?
- Does it look like a scam to you? Or is it trustworthy?
- What kind of statistics would you want to see? Or is it too many already?
- How high should a good prize be?
- Did you experience any bugs?
- What would you change, anything, if you could?
Really any feedback that comes to your mind is greatly appreciated!
