I just want to inform you guys that the site is now just put on ice, as it was hard to get people to use it.
Code and everything worked quite well, but as the interest wasn't large enough, I decided to put this project on hold for now. What is great is that I'm able to reuse plenty of the code in new things I will try so not as wasteful as one might think. And I will certainly return to this in the future as I really like the idea with this. I will for sure keep the code in a safe place.
I don't think anyone here has bitcoin there that is yours, but if you do, do tell and we will sort it out.
Thanks, and I'm off to other adventures and projects!

Krunox!! Sweet! You found the thread!
It's not that hard to find this thread 
Well, I plan of doing more with the first post here. To make it look more appealing and whatnot. I'm not a professional designer though... so I will do as best as I can.
Take your time 
Oh, and I noticed you also have my site in your signature. That is also very nice of you!
I have been wearing your site in my signature for more than a month Well, thanks Krunox for helping me out! Really appreciated. And when this is bigger, I won't forget you being there from the beginning.
Let's just hope people like this, and if not, tell me what I should fix. Hi i don't understand this game. If i create cake and people lost on it did i get some money?
i also dont undertand. too complicated!!!!!!! 
Yeah same here too, im really confused
Is it really hard to understand how to play the game? 
But you understrand it, right Krunox?

Alright, updated the first post with some images. Is it more clear now, or you guys/girls have more questions about how this works?
February 14, 2015, 04:30:48 AM
i'm kindda confuse how to play this.
Can you explain step per step ?
Can you explain step per step ?
I'm working on images, but will try to keep it simple in this post.
So, to better understand how it works, go to this cake: https://www.btccake.com/cake/31317a9b37877dfcb03dda9d0fe10c96a4ad54477dbcd2ff9b8cafb476726d1b
That cake uses free play money (PlayBTC).
1. Click on a wedge or click on a button "Bet on Wedge X" of your choice.
2. Enter amount of PlayBTC to bet.
When doing this, note the text "Chance of winning after bet" and "You can Win" being updated.
3. When satisfied, click the "Place Bet" button.
4. Done.
Now, when time is up, if your wedge is selected, you will win.
That is essentially the gist of it.

I got heads up with possible problems replying to the thread. Can more confirm this? (Title too long apparently)
February 14, 2015, 12:13:04 AM
Yea, me too. Although the site doesn't have everything implemented, all the core/basics are there and working. That is also why this post is late, as I really wanted to test it first. Now I put it more "official" to get even more feedback and see if I should put more time into it or if it will be a waste of time.
There is this "Battle Cake" type of thing I would love to implement as well. Which would be a "Battle Ship" kind of game. I think that would be even more engaging and fun actually.
I'm still not 100% sure what is so confusing about the site really. I guess it's easy for me to say having done it all myself.
Actually, I do think I would like to add a "+" button there on the Dashboard which would let you get the next cakes in the group. Currently it's only showing the 4 closest to end time.

Yes I know all about it. I have been watching its development since the beginning. You have put a lot of work into it, and Im really glad it is officially launched.
February 13, 2015, 03:06:24 AM
Hey this looks like a good site!
I certainly hope so.
I put a lot of time and effort into it. Wasn't made in a weekend exactly...

too complicated for me
What is complicated? I want to improve and make it easier to understand.
You just put a bet on a wedge. And if that wedge wins, you win.

So, creating a cake doesn't say anything about you winning or loosing on it. Although, that is an interesting idea. But for now, creating one is just so people have control over the parameters on the cake. Such as limit rich people coming in with 10 BTC and essentially have 99% chance of winning. Not a guaranteed win though, which could mean happy users and one rich guy a bit upset. But anyway, the parameters are there to add limits to avoid that if wanted.
February 12, 2015, 04:31:57 AM
Ok, so let my try to explain.
With a cake with 2 or more wedges/slices people bet on wedges. More BTC on a wedge means higher chance of winning (because it increases the total of the wedge, and thus more of the cake), but not a guaranteed win. All wedges are essentially competing against each other. Then, trough randomness (which everybody control until time is up), a value is picked, and thus a wedge wins. Users on that wedge takes the pot. So, always users that wins.
Take a look at these cakes for example:
https://www.btccake.com/cake/75ba00cc1c7633c604998fd600e876acc1abf7cfdf7fb4a93a1f67ee4c6440bd

And look under the "Results" tab there. And also, check the "Calculation" tab within that tab.
More clear now?
