It's a nice UI but the wrong time to open an investment website imo. I don't think people will invest their coins into new websites anymore, pretty sure everyone has learned there lesson.

i think you should make a giveaway and add a faucet to attract more players to your site

@Doog: Thanks for the comprehensive test and 'segnalation'... And sorry for the inconvenience. Will look into it Smiley

House Edge is 3% ? No thanks. But your designer knows his business, good ui.
Also I didn't deposit, made bet with 0 satoshi. It was so slow because of 0 satoshi?

Ummm, actually it is 1% by default, 2% - 3% are optional for player that want to bet higher than 0.5% of the bankroll. And yes, there is a delay for 0 satoshi Smiley

I've typed "0.00000010" into the stake box, and am trying to type "1000" into the payout box. As soon as I hit the "1", the payout box changes to "1.02061856". I don't know why.

There's no significant error in the javascript console.

I don't think I'm trying to do anything very weird - I want to bet a little on a high multiplier - but I can't figure out how.

Edit: I tried putting 0.001 into the chance field, but it changes to 0.01. And if I hit backspace, the field becomes just "0", much like I segnalationed with the stake box earlier.

Edit2: Maybe 0.01% is the hardest bet you allow. I managed to win it with a small stake:



The site looks pretty good, but has a few annoying issues, reported above.

Edit3: Withdrawal of 0.56 BTC was instant. It would be better if the withdrawal dialog made it clear whether I was meant to type the amount I wanted to receive or the amount I wanted to go out of my balance. They're different by the fee of 0.0001 BTC, see?

I tried to set my client seed. It told me "bad request", but not what was wrong with it.

Seems there's a limit of 15 characters - if so, tell me. "bad request" isn't helpful.

What's the maximum house edge? I didn't see it go above 3%, which presumably means you can profit by 1.5% of the 10 BTC backroll, or 0.15 BTC. Maybe that's what caused the crash.

Thank you so much for the catch Doog! We just fixed both glitches you mentioned Smiley

You missed the point about the maximum house edge. It looks like I can attempt to win 20 BTC by betting 20 BTC with a 48.5% chance. That's only a 3% house edge, when I'm trying to win over 100% of the bankroll.

Also, why would you only adjust the house edge in whole percentages? It would make sense to offer the exact "right" edge. If I'm trying to win 10% of the bankroll, make the house edge 20%, if I'm trying to win 10.001% of it, make the edge 20.002%, etc.

You could consider going lower than 1% too, for small bets. Then you'd have a real unique feature to boast about!

Hi Doog,

What do you mean by missing the point about the maximum house edge? Can you please help to elaborate?

We also thought about floating house edge the first time, to have variable house edge using a proper kelly criterion. And then, we thought that it might be a difficult to understand concept to new players and investors. Plus, we wouldn't be able to advertise the site as "1% house edge." That's why we came out with the "semi floating" idea. There's also one consideration that using total floating might encourage players to make a dust bet.

However seeing this post is made by you, it really make us think twice about our decision. We will discuss this internally and probably implement it asap. Thanks for the "site changing" post Cheesy

I just tried setting a username and password.

I typed a 32 character password, twice.

It told me "Minimum password length is 6".

It turned out it didn't like the exclamation mark I had in my password.

It would be better if you allowed weird characters in passwords, or at least told the user what the rules are, rather than saying "minimum 6"!

Sorry for the inconvenience Doog. Noted this and will fix on the next update  Smiley

guess ur chinese, the languages listed only english and chinese, layout pretty good, u need more advertising push i believe, and i just found out this today

The Chinese flag is right, but the English flag isn't. That looks like the USA flag, not the English one.

Sorry for the confusion Doog, it was meant as American English, but I realized that it is not common and just changed as suggested.

After logging in, a UK flag is shown now; but before logging in, a US flag is still shown.

Impressive job. Minor nitpick, on the splash page you should fill probably prefill the input box with the attribute placeholder="player" instead of: value="player"

Thanks Rhavar! We did it on intention because it is an alias (optional), so people can just left it with default value.

I tried experimenting with the variable house edge, checking out what chance it would give me of doubling 1 BTC or 2 BTC.

After a while things stopped updating.

I checked the console and saw errors:

Also, if I'm trying to edit a stake of 0.001 to 0.002, I go to the end, backspace over the '1', the site notices that the 0.00 left in the box is just 0, so replaces it with '0'. Then I type the 2, and I'm betting 2, not 0.002.

The site shouldn't try to be so clever - it shouldn't try to edit the same box I'm currently editing. I should be able to go to the end of 0.001, hit backspace then type a '2' and then see "0.002" in the box, not just "02".

Thank you so much for the catch Doog! We just fixed both glitches you mentioned Smiley. We also notice the same happen for Win Chance and Payout box, we'll look into this soon.

Nice work, welcome on board  Wink

Hello fellow op! Good luck for both of us Smiley

Not a bad site, other than the fact that its another dice site  Wink
 I would suggest against a referral system. People will just refer themselves to make a rakeback of what they lose/win.



Wish you luck on your venture! This could be a huge success if you make the right marketing moves and such.

Thanks for the advice Mist, will note it Smiley
