Just remember. Imitation is the best for of flattery ;-)




Looks like they changed the CSS though... (can you 'steal' HTML markup) Wink

Nice to see they are maintaining their scam site.

I wonder where they stole the latest css from.

There are plenty of good sites to play, you can search the forums...
Personally I like 3 sports and 1 roulette;

www.sportingbit.com (pays the fastest)
nitrogen sports (Also pays fast)
btcsportsbet.com (looks the best IMO)

www.bitoomba.com (this is probably the nicest roulette I've seen that accepts Bitcoin and Litecoin.

or you know, just refer to mems list: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/mems-list-of-gambling-sites-75883  Roll Eyes

Shame on bitcoin-roulette.com for stealing our css.

Pretty disgusting, its one thing to reimplement but its completely another thing to simply steal.

Thanks for being vigilant mem, their popup boxes on the site are also direct rips of mine with a tweaked theme Sad

This makes me a sad panda Sad
Id be flattered if they hadn't simply stolen my work and instead reimplemented the work.

Thanks for the warning. It's pretty disgusting that someone would go ahead and rip off someone's work in this fashion. However, as long as people like yourself raise awareness to it these websites will never succeed or receive any bets.  Smiley

I just caught a new advert on reddit for this game, looking @ the forums it was started ages ago but has either been sold or refreshed.

The following css labels and code is directly stolen from satoshiroulette.com:
* Green_Table_Background
* roulette_table_td_small
* mini_min_max_bet_red
* mini_min_max_bet_black

I play @ satoshi roulette a bit at work on the tablet so Im quite used to seeing those buttons on the green tiles they used, turned out it wasn't familiar at all but plain stolen.

http://pastebin.ca/2373570

Now more concerning than petty theft is the claim of provably fair splashed all over its reddit add without anything on the site AT ALL to show players how they can verify their bets. It may not be a scam but there are some incredible losing streaks on their log atm that Id love to see verified with a secret I already knew the hash of.

Additionally they make the bold claim that they have the best odds but all Im seeing is a plain old euro table and nothing else to increase the odds for the player.

Its one thing to copy an idea, but another to simply jack someones hard work on web design - the 2 guys doing satoshi roulette arent pro web devs but they work hard anyway, its a terrible shame to see some asshole rip their hard work off to use as his base.

Welp its about 3:20am here in perth, I better get ready for bed, just caught this on my light night reddit crawl and thought Id send up a warning flare before crashing out.
