Alex, I found a little problem on your site:

I started betting with autobet. My settings were:
- betting 250 doge per bet
- 97% win chance
- no increase on loss
- stop if balance <(certain amount)

I lost some bets, so my balance hit <(certain amount), so the bot stopped working as it should.
The next thing I did was clicking on the 'bet manual' button.
Now comes the weird part:
The screen went to the manual betting screen. There were however 2 extra buttons: the 'start betting' and 'stop betting' buttons.
I had never seen those buttons on the manual screen, so I clicked the 'start betting' button. At once the bot started rolling! This is weird, because I was on the manual betting page.
In this case, I didn't lose very much due to this bug, but anyone else could.

I don't know the cause of this bug. I tried it again with the same settings, but somehow everything was how it should be.

please stop hurting my investments, I would appreciate your cooperation Tongue

You want me to stop playing? Probably a good idea. Smiley

I wagered a little under 900 CLAM. Level 7 needs 1k wagered I think?

So it seems that when an output in the hot wallet stakes, the guy who owns the deposit address gets the full stake reward.

That's probably a bug, right?

In this commit (which is now part of the official client) I made 'listaccounts' work when staking is enabled, but not include staked coins in the returned numbers. So I guess you're not using that to detect deposits, and whatever you are using can't tell the difference between staking and depositing.

I just found a couple of bugs in the site:

1) I deposited 300 CLAM, waited until my deposit had 6 confirmations, but my balance still showed 0. I asked in the chat how many confirmations were needed. I was told "1". I tried betting 1 CLAM at 49.5%, won, and my balance changed from 0 to 301. It seems my account was credited, but my on-screen balance wasn't updated until I bet.

2) The site-profit lags one bet behind. When I started betting, the site's profit was around -75. I lost a bunch then won it back. My last bet before taking this screenshot won 25 CLAM. It should have taken the site profit to -76, but the site profit shows as -51:



I then bet just 1 CLAM, and lost. The site profit changed from -51 to -76. Notice how my number of bets and the site number of bets both go up by 1, so I'm the only person playing, but while my amount bet goes up by 1 the site amount bet goes up by 25... Clearly this is a bug:



Then I bet 2 CLAMs and won. The site profit changed from -76 to -75:



At each step the site profit was one step behind reality.

Yeah but it would still be a measly 1%. I want a site with a decent return on my investment, like what casinos get on table games. I want a good 2% minimum.

1% is plenty high enough if you're prepared to stay invested for a while, and if the site has a decent bet volume.

Something else the world needs is a poker room with a reasonable rake, like preferably 1%. Only problem is that nobody could invest in it because there's no house bank involved. However, if Alex wanted to make a crapload of money he might consider setting up a 1% rake poker room. I'd join. At present there is exactly zero poker rooms with 1% rake. The usual rate is 5%. Problem is that with rake they're taking 5% of the money you win plus 5% of your own money that you risked. So in essence you're paying 10% rake, assuming that the hand got down to two players early on. That's unacceptable by any standard. In fact, for that reason the rake should actually be 0.5% for it to be reasonable, since that would work out to 1% of winnings for the reason I just explained.

So 1% is far too small when you're the one collecting it, but too big when you're the one paying it? I see where you're coming from, but does that sound fair to you?

Re. your point that a 5% rake is in essence 10% when 2 people are heads-up, I don't see it:

Suppose I bet 100 units, you call for 100 units, and I win the pot. The house rakes 5% of the 200 pot, and I get 190 units back. Suppose it was a 50/50 chance of winning. I've a 50% chance of achieving a 1.9x payout, effectively. That's a 5% house edge. (50 * 1.9 = 95). I don't see how you're getting 10% unless you think the coins you risk shouldn't be raked. That's not how it works. When you bet 100 units at 50% on bitdice.me you get a 1.98x payout - 50*1.98 = 99%, for a 1% edge. They're charging 1% on your stake as well as on your profit too. That doesn't make it a 2% rake.

yes make sites of every casino game and make it 1% house odds. making every game more chance to win for gamblers.

Yeah that could be done, since it's all just computer programs instead of real wheels or cards. You could set the house edge to whatever you wanted. People probably would want more games to play at 1% than just dice. Get pretty tired of playing dice all the time.

Well you should have put some kind of notice on the site, Alex. Was that too difficult for you? How the hell was anybody supposed to know if they don't know about this forum?

That's a fair point. I recently revisited bitdice explicity because I heard they had merged all the sites into one, and still had a hard time figuring out what was going on. And I had already read about the need to 'import' my other accounts.

Here's what you do, Alex, you set up a casino with roulette tables in it and nothing else. You call it bitroulette.me. That way investors make a good 2.7%, or on American roulette they make 5.26%. At 1% it's still practically an even game and investors have a very real chance of losing money. This 1% dice stuff is a complete waste of time. How do you attract players to the roulette site? Simple. you make the 0 square slightly smaller than the other numbers so the edge is only 2.2% instead of 2.7. That way everyone who wants to play roulette will leave every other casino and go to yours. Then you take the 0.2% as your commision and give investors a full 2%, TWICE what they get from dice sites. Right now you're just one of countless btc dice sites, all with the same edge. Why would anyone choose yours over the others?

2.2% edge roulette. That could just work!

But even better: 1% roulette...

If each of the numbers 1 through 36 was 11 units wide, and the zero was just 4 units wide, that would give a total wheel circumference of 11*36+4 = 400 units. Betting on a single number would win with probability 11/400 and pay out 36x, for an expected return of 36*11/400 = 0.99 per unit bet - a 1% house edge. Betting on zero could pay out 99x, for an expected return of 99*4/400 = 0.99 per unit bet.

Then the investors get the 1% they're used to, and the roulette players get a decent chance of winning for a change!

its too late you have lost a LOYAL CUSTOMER with $20 Tongue

its sad to see him go Sad

Well I dont like to lost customers, but I also don't like such attitude. Thus it's win-win for both of us Smiley

Well you should have put some kind of notice on the site, Alex. Was that too difficult for you? How the hell was anybody supposed to know if they don't know about this forum? I only found this forum when I did a search for "bitdice.me scam" to find out if you were scamming people. And you don't like my attitude? Ooh, wouldn't want to upset Alex and lose out on that huge 1%. That's chickenfeed Alex. My money was in there for abouit a month and when I withdrew it it was pretty much exactly the same as what I put in. I put in $19 dollars and something and I got out $19 and something.

Well said Alex, newer customers are coming through the inclusion of clam and i am sure they will be here to stay. You need to get the investment stats and information updated though so that people can start investing in the site Smiley.

DId bitdice add clam or is going to be soon ? That is certainly great news.
Already have it Wink

Nope, didn't read it. How the hell would I know you PMd me when I was busy writing a bunch of posts? You couldn't jusyt post it in this thread where I would actually see it? Anyway, my money is now safely extricated from the site so all is well. Remind me never to deposit money in that site again.

Sorry that this has happened with you. And I feel sorry about you that at any situation you start blaming everyone and advice not to invest by harassing reputation because you can't read the information on the import modal window and ignoring site's alerts that your balance and statistic were adjusted among your ignorance to help of other people. It's much easier to come here and tell that we steal money and haven't ever contacted with you. Seems it's my bad that I haven't asked your email in the first place. Please accept my excuse about it.

Wish you a good luck somewhere else Smiley

Yours faithfully,
Alex
