Thank all of you guys for being honest and sending back the messed up payouts. I'm pretty sure I have everything fixed now and I will not be touching live the code again unless someone finds a serious problem. Going to set up another copy of the site on the testnet to experiment with any changes.
I appreciate everyone bearing with all the issues. Remember that the entire codebase is only 2 days old!
Also.... TESTNET PONZI ANYONE?? No wins, no losses, just fun.
I don't have any testnet coins..
I have a question..
Do you base the bet position on the time that it hit the bitcoin server on your end, or based on when your cron / scheduled job picks it up? it's especially important information for sniping jackpots.
thanks for all the awesome work!

All deposits and payments are inserted when a scheduled task runs, I don't know of any way to get events from bitcoind or I would have them inserted the moment they show up. Its polled an average of every 15 seconds, with randomness added intentionally to prevent anyone from knowing exactly when it will run.
void timer_Elapsed(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
.....
timer.Interval = new Random().Next(10000, 20000);
timer.Start();
}
Edit: Actually, I'm going to decrease this to an average of every 10 seconds...
