How does a new user, who may not have meta mask installed, create an account to see what exactly the betting options are?
Very non-intuitive to create an account or see why a new user would create one.
It should have an option for bitcoin holders to be able to create and account and swap BTC for ETH? It's the bitcoin talk forum after all...lots of people hold bitcoin that don't own Ethereum yet.
Nice looking site.
Topic: Crypto Sportz - Smart Contract Betting Using Ethereum (Read 892 times)
This is one of a kind. As I am new to this, I think it is better to stay around a while to understand how it works.
The website looked really professional and smooth the design is really cool and unique although, I suggest to make a on-site tutorial to guide new users because it took some time to figure out how things work especially with placing bets and for some reason website fails to load on my desktop no issues on laptop not sure what is causing it its probably something from my side but it would be nice to know the reason behind it, best wishes for the project's future looking forward to see CryptoSportz grow!
Hey guys,
We're excited to announce that our v2 is now live and it is a sports dedicated prediction platform operating on an Ethereum smart contract. Like Augur, just with greater context for sports and no weird open ended components. Please take a look and let us know what you think.
www.cryptosportz.com
It features fixed odds, loads of daily games/sports/leagues, no commission and no fees, powered completely by smart contracts.
For the the guys that love to ask detailed tech questions, please do and we'll make sure to answer but... Here's how it works:
Your ETH is safely stored in the contract when you deposit it (and you can withdraw at any time)
When you make a bet, you sign a transaction to the contract that locks in your ETH - including the odds you are betting on, the game ID and your position
When the game is over, the person that won (you or the user that created the odds) is able to claim their winnings from the contract just as you used to before on Crypto Sportz, by sending a redeem transaction
Essentially it's the same platform as what we've had before, only now you get to bet with fixed odds because we are letting people create their own markets (odds) using exchange mechanics. Before all of the ETH would go into a single pool for every game which was then split between those that guessed correctly. Now, every user is able to set up odds (be a market maker) or take odds (market taker). Feel free to chat with us in the Telegram group if any of this is hard to understand.

Kudos to the CryptoSportz team. This is the essence of what blockchain dapps are built for - a simple application that has a real (and actually fun) use case.
I guess it was eventually time for some people to develop a dapp this nice and smooth. As a developer myself, i see a lot of work and thought has been put into the user interface. But more than the user interface, i love how everything is well handled. I was actually trying to find some bugs and trying to input random and wrong values but i found no loopholes. Everything seems to be intact and in order.
Good luck and good job to CryptoSportz. I hope people get addicted to betting on your platform!

So far I really liked,Crypto Sportz.
Here are the things I like about Crypto Sportz it isn't much a hassle to signup and start playing.So far you don't need I'd for verification and such.Which is awesome and good.(other sport betting site's you would need your documents ready to be verified) or at least most do.
I really like how simplify this game is compare with other sport betting sites.Its like just go and bet and hope you are right with your prediction/bet and hope for the best.
I'm not very sure on this but I think or believe that maybe Crypto Sportz is first of its kind to have almost everything simplified for you as a sport better to just come and play.Which is great!
Until now Crypto Sportz only accepts ETH.But I hope that more crypto coins would be accepted in Crypto Sportz in the future.Unless they want only ETH for sport betters to bet with.
And for all the sport betters out there I would recommend for you to at least try Crypto Sportz out! Who knows maybe you would fell in love with it too!
I'm expecting more good things to come in Crypto Sportz as well.

How many matches do you offer currently?
You can check by yourself on our website: https://cryptosportz.com/. Right now there are 5 matches available.
More matches come often, it's all about the real life's events. For the short time, we are online, we have already had March Madness and Super Bowl except for all the single games. And many more are on their way to come from different fields.
In case you missed this, CryptoSportz featured on ProductHunt.

How many matches do you offer currently?
Being a user who is more of sports games than casino games on my first visit of https://cryptosportz.com/ what I first noticed was the padlock https which means all my transactions on the website are secure and then the user interface is as easy as they come and am impressed that cryptosportz encourages its uses to use MetaMask which shows they are security conscious but what i would have liked to see is cryptosportz showing the price for each selection shown to us without guesing, I think this is the standard of sports gambling as far as I know and is good to see they using eth for their bets to avoid delays but hope in the future the support extends to others popular cryptocurrencies. Overall I give them a 7/10 just to keep them off their toes and encourage them to keep improving 
This is actually a part answer to this question... because the whole system works on cookies. As long as the user has the cookie, the contract wil send it the fee. The problem is when the user refers himself and them the contract says "I'm not paying you your own referral fee". We still need to fix it so that at least it doesn't reject transactions.
Can you please explain how the affiliation exactly works?
I create my affiliate link adding my ETH address. The player clicks my link and make some bets on your site. But as he do not create an account on your website, how do you know one or two weeks later when he comes back that he was referred by me?

Why would you need to use metamask because it is a application you need to install as an applet on your web browser and I do not like to do this if I do not need to in order to place a bet to use the site.
Just wish they would allow you to use myethereum to send to the smart contract and place a bet this way if you wanted to.
It is all about customer/player preference after all when it comes to the end product and them coming back to use it.

This project has pleasantly surprised me. All this is simple, fast and convenient. To make a bet spent 1 minute, it's very convenient when the schedule is busy. Developers done well done very well. The only thing I would like to see more matches and sports. That there was a choice. And so everything is super. Developers thanks
