I've been tolerant because I thought you wanted to participate in chat. we don't blindly enforce this rule for every short messages posted. we've talked about it before and you agreed to posting a few words instead of short messages. for example, "i have 20".

since the end of November, you've been warned multiple times for swearing, using caps and being rude to other players, even going as far as mocking them.

your screenshot seems to be missing the part where you're trying to say it's personal and calling me an asshole.

I'm sorry, but your attitude is the reason you got muted.

edit: Everyone else seems to be having fun in that screenshot 

Probably because there is nothing to get. They make no sense. They intentionally do it to be jerks and think it's funny and that as long as there are people playing it won't matter how they treat people that are in the chat. It will catch up to them in the long run, you can't be shitty for too long without it having an effect on your reputation. What I don't get is why you would deposit or play there with how they treat you. There are much more respectful/deserving places to play.

like i said before. being a mod at just-dice.com and at bit-exo.com and 3+ years now. CG has the worse chat room because of their mods.

i know every dice owner and how they run their chart rooms, and by far CG treats it's customer's with no respect.

CG is the first socialist dice site in crypto world.

but rules are rules. 

Eh, I know they are rules and all but if a mod asks you a question that requires a simple answer and I don't have anything else to say, leading to a one word reply I don't give a second thought to and it leads to a mute...



Is that a way to treat your players? One could argue this was a simple attack on me hence this other person above me didn't get muted. This just seems like a selective way to apply rules.

Aaand... more...



You see how they say I think rules don't apply to me while not muting another person who broke the same exact rule while NOT ANSWERING anything unlike I did.

I know I am probably giving this too much thought but I can't get over how they apply their rules...

You're right there.
SegWit only provides it full advantage when sending from and to other SW addresses, but transactions to/from P2PKH addresses also get a small boost.
E.g. a difference in transacion sizes from 258 bytes to 224 bytes (comparing 1 input/2 output transacions from a P2PKH address first to another P2PKH address, then to a P2SH address).

I'm pretty sure bech32 will replace p2sh as prefered segwit integration before long.
The current delay in services not being able to handle/process transacions involving bech32 addresses comes from Core only having limited support for them so far.
Once bech32 replaces p2sh as default segwit address format in Core (which imo is both very likely and close), services can work towards integrating it in their infrastructure.

This only affects withdrawals to other P2SH segwit addresses, not withdrawals to legacy (both P2SH and P2PKH) addresses.
The fees for withdrawals are based on average transacion size and are calculated before you enter an address, they are the same regardless.

A switch there would need a complete overhaul of the withdrawal system, which isn't very cost/benefit efficient when bech32 addresses are just around the corner.
As said, a switch to segwit based address handling should be discussed, but I don't think it should be rushed and done right now,
I however do think the time for it is with a well designed and tested update when the bech32 standard is established.

Not with the current version of Core, nope.
P2SH is still standard for SegWit addresses and afaik bech32 is currently only partly supported, making it impossible for CG to utilize it right now.

CG isn't the only service and many users send withdrawals directly to deposit addresses from other services.
While it isn't best use practice, we gotta acknowledge that people are doing this, and we gotta account for it when making decisions.

Minimum withdrawal amounts will stay as they are. They're approximately the same as on other sites

I checked again, the waiting period would be much longer, from 13-16 hour on average. We'll not offer this option, sorry.

I have deposited from a bech32 address and can confirm it worked.

This is understandable, but what about P2SH addresses for deposits? Right now clicking on "New address" generates a P2PKH address, is it possible to start generating P2SH SegWit addresses instead? This could help to lower withdrawal fees, since it's a hot wallet and those coins are likely to be used for withdrawals later.

As for bech32, it can be done optionally, for example you could put a checkbox like "generate bech32 addresses for deposits" somewhere in Settings tab, so it won't be too distracting and confusing for less experienced users.

Also, would Crypto-games accept my deposit today if it will come from bech32 address?

You can withdraw to P2SH segwit addresses without any issue. Bech32 isn't standardized enough to be utilized right now.
A decision on how to integrate SegWit into the current system at CG wont be made before the bech32 standard is fully rolled out.

Right now, using bech32 addresses can cause two big issues, the first one is that some users are unable to deposit, since their wallet/exchange doesnt support sending to bech32 addresses,
the second one is that users might not be able to withdraw everywhere, as some exchanges don't credit transacions sent from bech32 addresses.
In the interest of avoiding either, a switch to bech32 segwit addresses on a service level doesn't seem smart before both those possible problem sources are addressed.

Hello, I'm a small but long term investor at Crypto-Games and I would like to make a few suggestions that might improve user experience.

First, all coins have skyrocketed in value recently, and minimum withdrawal for all coins seems to be around $30 atm, which can negatively affect small players, like those who are from poor countries and can only afford to play with sums like $5-10. Are there any plans to reduce those amounts or maybe this is not an issue for most players?

Also, I would like to bring up batch withdrawals again. Some time ago I was asking here if you plan to implement them, and Kewl responded that people wouldn't want to wait 6 hours for withdrawal. Currently, the minimum allowed withdrawal fee on Crypto-Games is 0.00042 BTC ($7.35), which would result in approximately 6 hours wait assuming 225 byte transaction, and much longer wait if transaction used multiple inputs. With batch withdrawals those costs can be brought down to 0.0001-0.0002 BTC per player, depending on the frequency of withdrawal requests, and transactions will be quickly confirmed as soon as they are broadcasted, because the total fees would be high enough to get confirmed quickly. And you don't have to replace your current system with this one, batch withdrawals can be entirely optional, and players don't have to commit to waiting, they can cancel their withdrawal request and use standard withdrawal instead.

And the third question - are you planning to use SegWit addresses for both deposits and withdrawals?

Nothing changed for existing investors.

Just to be 100% sure. If I have a bitcoin investment, can I make a new investment in another coin? Also, can I divest my investment, deposit more funds and make a new investment with all the funds?

Apart from that, I welcome any measures take to improve security.

Guess so, fair enough.

It's simply a way to limit the growth of the bankroll, as the currently available amount is fully sufficient to cover all wagering volume.
another way would have been to increase the fees on investments, in a hope that the worse offer would keep people from joining the investors pool,
which is something we didn't want to do, as it would penalize not only new, but also current investors.

Our bankroll is currently at 53 million $, that's more than enough to handle a crypto casino. We won't accept investments from new investors, but old one can continue to invest/divest/withdraw/deposit etc.

As a long time investor, this comes as worrying news. Care to elaborate a bit?

Temporarily limiting the investment feature: For the time being, we will no longer accept bankroll investments from completely new investors. If you didn't invest into the bankroll in the past, you will thus be unable to make a new investment starting right now. Currently active investors are not affected by this change, everyone who's got a standing investment into one of the bankrolls right now will still be able to increase, decrease, or remove any of their investments. While this change is only temporarily, there is no fixed point at which everyone will be allowed to add new investments yet. We'll inform you once the restrictions are lifted.

Another news: Players can now withdraw Litecoins to segwit addresses.
