I know - they're not accepting new ones, but it seems they're keeping ones that've been already approved.

Unless the prize is large enough, most people are turned off to plain satoshi for captchas sites.

I like the concept of this faucet, even though they seem to have run out of funds:
http://bitcoin.lift-institute.com/lottery/
Every 30 minutes, users can draw either a variable amount of satoshi or a number of tickets to enter a raffle for the larger prizes.

This is also an interesting, though simple game, where the top 10 score earners win the prize: http://www.landofbitcoin.com/user/the-island (you have to be logged in to see it).

And if you really want a challenge, how about a browser-based mmo faucet. Something like http://browserquest.mozilla.org/.

HEY! There IS hope for my 2 usb ASICMINER sticks

BTC for videos:
Landofbitcoin.com still hasn't been shutdown.
and
easybitco.in is still working.

edit: and bitcoinget.com is still offering videos.

I'd do a captcha, or anything else! 

Got any links to companies that do that..?

Yeah, I noticed. What about a normal faucet or a captcha service? Where you can type in captcha's for BTC? Or what if you say you'll cash out for $? And simply have the option to pull out with bitcoin as well?

It makes me wonder why they are cracking down on bitcoin sites, when there are several others that still offer the virool service & bitcoins.

Folks,

Had to take the site down.  Virool is "no longer accepting websites trading for bitcoins".  But they did pay me what was owed, so at least they're not scammers, even if it's a giant piss off.

Anyone got any ideas?

If you know of any sites that provide instant feedback (a callback to the website) confirming that a user has completed an action, and this action is with $x.xx... Let me know.  I'll make a new bitcoin faucet for everyone.

Anyone...?

I've had this same issue as well so I'm just careful not to delete the cookies.

This is true

Yes.  I'm afraid quadruple has to be enough for now

is the bonus suppose to stop going up at 300%?

i only looked into it because it affected me.

Hey - thanks

What you said is actually true, now that I think about it.  Your "Activity bonus" actually will disappear, if you clear cookies or use another browser.  It IS tracked by your pid/sid.

Perhaps I should do an analysis.  It might be better to be tracked by a bitcoin address instead.

Thoughts?  Is that issue actually affecting people? Is it affecting you or did you just notice it while experimenting?

no, i got my payout ok last night- note that i'm the one who pointed out the tx in a previous message. this problem happened only a few of hours ago. i had a bonus close to 300%, wiped cookies, logged in with same address moments later, and my bonus went to 0%, the message after the next video showed i earned less than 2000 (1700?) and my displayed balance only went up by that amount also. maybe it's because the sid is now different. i see from other virool publisher sites the sid value is used to uniquely identify users. but maybe the ip address serves the same purpose here. after a few hours i'm only at 105%. seems like more than just a client-side display issue.

Hey peoples,

bitcoinslider.com pays out daily, as of yesterday. 

At first it was weekly, because the site was an experiment and I wasn't sure how it was going to work.  Although it wasn't actually weekly, it was a bit more often, but sporadic.

Now, I've purchased enough bitcoins to fund the site for a while, and daily payouts will be no problem.  ...That being said, I'm still doing it manually.  I'll move to an automatic system sooner or later, but for right now, it's manual.

As for the note about bitcoins being reset if you lose cookies?  No.  Each and every bitcoin earned is recorded and stored in a table on Microsoft Azure.  If you lose your cookies or go with another browser, your bitcoins will still be there.  They SHOULD show up if you enter the same bitcoin address... but I haven't tested it thoroughly   But even if they don't show up on the website, when it's time to payout, they're still there.

Here's the structure used for each video you get credited for:     

public sealed class BitcoinTransactionEntity : TableEntity
    {
        public BitcoinTransactionEntity()
        {
        }
        public BitcoinTransactionEntity(DateTime transactionDate, string bitcoinAddress)
        {
            PartitionKey = GetPartitionKeyOptimistic(transactionDate, bitcoinAddress);
            RowKey = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N");

            TransactionDate = transactionDate;
            BitcoinAddress = bitcoinAddress;
        }
        public DateTime TransactionDate { get; set; }
        public string AmountString { get; set; }
        public string BitcoinAddress { get; set; }

        public static string GetPartitionKeyOptimistic(DateTime transactionDate, string bitcoinAddress)
        {
            return transactionDate.ToString("yyMMdd") + bitcoinAddress.Substring(0, 1);
        }
    }

When a payout occurs (ie, you are actually sent your payment in bitcoins), it's a new record in a different table.  The record of the transactions NEVER gets deleted.

Here's the structure for that one:
public sealed class BitcoinPayoutEntity: TableEntity
    {
        public BitcoinPayoutEntity()
        {

        }
        public BitcoinPayoutEntity(string id, int transactionPartNumber, DateTime transactionDate)
        {
            Id = id;
            TransactionPartNumber = transactionPartNumber;
            TransactionDate = transactionDate;

            PartitionKey = GetPartitionKeyOptimistic(transactionDate);
            RowKey = transactionDate.ToString("yyyyMMdd") + id + transactionPartNumber.ToString();
        }
        public string Id { get; set; }
        public int TransactionPartNumber { get; set; }
        public DateTime TransactionDate { get; set; }
        public string AmountString { get; set; }
        public string BitcoinAddress { get; set; }

        public static string GetPartitionKeyOptimistic(DateTime transactionDate)
        {
            return transactionDate.Day.ToString();
        }
    }


Bottom line: You'll be paid everything you've earned

If you feel you're missing some, pm me a bitcoin address.

Note that when a payout to you occurs, the "pending amount" showing on the website gets reset.

Prospero, I noticed that your forum message occurred shortly after my last payout.  Perhaps you just saw your pending amount go to zero because I paid you your bitcoins, and that's the cause of confusion.

Any Q's, feel free to ask   One guy earned 26600 or so uBTC last payout.  Geez lol.

I think the site has a bug. If you lose your site cookies for any reason (e.g. switch to different browser, wipe on exit for privacy, etc.) and re-login with same bitcoin address, the bonus get reset to 0.

They just paid out: http://blockchain.info/tx/8210883433cd3ceeb99e0cd52411bf51f79b407b4429ba3ef7ede631f427263e

And if 1 Bitcoin goes up in price 10x, then each individual satoshi is worth 10x more isn't it?
I'm not expecting to become a millionaire off of getting 1 million satoshis every 3 days, but it sure would be nice to know that I might be able to use these satoshis to purchase something.

If 1 satoshi is $10, that means 1 Bitcoin would have to be 1 billion dollars. Just saying.

Who knows what a couple satoshis could be worth years from now .
