Your statement is not valid in my opinion. When sites fail like dadice did, they usually expand their original offer, but most certainly do not try to avoid payments.
I predicted to op correctly that was one month ago, and dadice failure to hold site online should not hurt me as an contestant.
Just like 20th is the correct in one hand, the 24th is maybe even more correct in another.
Can you imagine Stunna pulling something like this off with primedice? Not a chance.
Had the downtime hadn't happened, 20th would be the winning date. The downtime was not supposed to happen. It is as simple as that.
If Da Dice had declared 24th a winner, that would be really unfair, in my opinion. And your point means Da Dice could wait a few months before going up, and deny everyone the entries? Come on, mate, it is not logical.
If you had genuine concerns you are to suggest it when OP made the announcement. I don't think anyone else would consider this unfair, in my opinion. It is the best possible decision someone can make.
This is one of the posts made on 20th August 2015, which makes anyone dead certain that 20th is really the winning date.
I see 113 user online, but in chat or to site?
BTW 1.90 mill only to go now.
I had been around at the time, and I can confirm that it was around 748,000,000 at the time, and it would have hit 750m within the day in a matter of around 2 hours.
Stunna would do the same. Every responsible admin will try to make the contest fair for all.
Come on, mate, I know how you feel. But the decision he took is fair.
