Hot wallet is empty, please do not attempt any withdrawals. Owner is offline for the next week and he hasn't given me any funds in case this happened. He obviously didn't top it up enough for people to keep withdrawing their free .005. Roll Eyes

If you've lost something, kindly PM me to resolve your issue. I will fund your Dicebits wallet and when the hot wallet is refilled you'll be able to withdraw the amount.

How many people got the free 0.005 last week? I think it was not more than 20, am I right? Because I tried to ask for it after the first 10 people but I did not get it.


Around 20 or less, yes. Hot wallet only had ~0.3 in it, users must have gotten lucky. Smiley
If the max bet was based on how much is in the hot wallet minus customer balances, shouldn't it have been impossible for the hot wallet to be completely empty?

Believe it or not, it's empty now.

True, and it still shows 1btc profit in the page, did yesterday as well, I dont see how you will explain what QS has asked tho.
BTW I still find it hard to believe someone who put aside 10btc for a sig. camp doesnt use cold wallet, along with making the max profit so low, dont know what admin hoped to profit from it.

Seems like bad marketing for the site, owner disappearing suddenly. BTW is it a coincidence QS warned us about it around the same time?
P.S: What did you mean by people withdrawing their free 0.005, wasnt that weeks ago? And wasnt hot wallet supposed to have 1btc until like yesterday.

Hey QS, I'd asked the same question and the admin replied that max profit is low because they are still in beta or something like that , and if you go back a bit you can see that the idea about public investing in the bankroll was scraped off. But I would like to ask this (as I know QS is gonna ask it if I don't) why is the site still accepting real gamblers if they are still fixing up the issues?
Yes I see that the site is not currently accepting investors, even though they were around since May and were accepting investors at that time.

While I do agree that DiscoverCebu's question should be answered regarding why they are accepting *real* investors if they are still in beta mode, however I think a better question would be, why are the spending 10BTC per month in advertising for a site that is not even in full production?

We're supposed to be in full production; the owner basically told me that:

Quote
launch in 3 days

I was as shocked as you are, and I'm just trying to keep up with the bug reports  Cheesy

Basic functions on the site work, it's my guess that the owner has a 3rd party or partner who was pressuring to launch, but that's just A GUESS. The owner is afraid of being hacked, and is thus keeping the hot wallet balance down. The max bet is calculated real-time from the hot wallet minus player balances.
Your site launched months ago? That still does not explain as to why they are paying 10BTC per month in advertising when they would expect to have so little in gambling losses by players with such a small bankroll.

Your site doesn't have any kind of cold storage? Don't they expect to ever outgrow their hot wallet?

That, I can't answer - not will not, but can't. I don't know the answer.

My guess: yes. He's shared his visions for the next big gambling site being Dicebits Wink

I might as well cross post here so I can warm both signature campaign participants and potential gambler/investors:

Thanks DiceBits for utilizing my service. I have received 10BTC for the signature campaign. Please note this does not cover the affiliate payment (if any).

Maximum bet size: ~0.012BTC

Is there any particular reason why the signature campaign has a budget of roughly 100x of the maximum bet size?

The BitDice.me signature campaign has roughly the opposite budget of roughly 1.07 btc verses a maximum bet size of ~127 btc.

Seems kinda fishy to me.....

The bets look out of order.

YABTF - yet another bug to fix

Indeed, a picture speaks a thousand words!  Grin

Will you post back once the bot has been fixed, for the benefit of the community?

A few other things to point out (not sure if these were discussed already in some form, apologies if they were discussed earlier):

1) The FAQ talks about investments, there is no investment tab that i can see.
2) There should be a section for affiliate earnings and to check the number of referrals and earnings. I can't see any such section atm.
3) Bitcointalk link still re-directs the user to this thread.
4) Provably fair should be more prominent imo, right now it is just a small icon on the top left. The formatting on the provably fair pop-up box looks a bit haywire.
5) Is there a possibility to include a link to randomize seed directly, without having to resort to clicking on the provably fair tab?

Small pointers, but i am sure you will agree that user feedback is important and i hope you make changes where you deem fit! Smiley

The owner decided to remove investments due to not being able to provide proof of solvency of a large amount of capital. I'll fix the link to popup in a new window shortly. I'll also contact the designer about the probably fair layout, and add the requested affiliate details.

However; I do not see a need go add a link to randomise the client seed into the main interface. To me, IMO, it should be done manually anyway to be able to verify the rolls you'll need to keep track of your client seed. It's also starting to get a bit cluttered for me (hey, I like it simple).

Once I've completed the fixes, new chat, and bot, I'll work on a client-side script for advanced users to use and an API.

P.S. Thanks for pointing out the investments-in-FAQ oversight; I'd forgotten about that.
Damn it's too bad that investments got removed..
I'll focus on the affiliate program instead.
