lol, why would you assume OP doesn't have their health?
What a random statement!

There were a bunch of incidents where it looked like SD customers got screwed by doublespends... I never understood why people didn't complain. This had upped my estimation that most of the SD activity was shareholders trying to pump their shares (an estimate that increased exponentially after it went non-public and the traffic basically dried up instantly)
OP UPDATING! Was away for a while and I'm just now getting back up to speed on the latest happenings with BTC.
My thinking is the coins never actually existed. I dumped the private keys and rescanned the wallet, the balance returned to 0, and the unconfirmed transactions vanished. The Tx IDs, when looked up on blockchain.info return nothing.
The wallet is too big to import into blockchain.info. Is there any other ways of attempting to getting the coins back or are they gone?
There are no coins. Said dice site created and accepted long chains of unconfirmed transactions. My thinking is the coins never actually existed. I dumped the private keys and rescanned the wallet, the balance returned to 0, and the unconfirmed transactions vanished. The Tx IDs, when looked up on blockchain.info return nothing.

Backup your wallet.dat to another location, download a light client like Electrum or Multibit, import the private keys into it, one by one if you can't import the wallet.dat file directly.

Are you missing them now ?
@OP update please.
If the transactions where valid at the time, just contact the gambling site, it may resent them

Don't trust anybody > but you can trust me.
Why he should trust you.
Don't trust anyone including yourself, trust me instead
Any luck so far?
Wish you good luck
Yeah, send me your wallet to me. I'm a total stranger but you can trust me. /sarcasm

Don't trust anybody, its pretty easy to find some solution online.... but you can trust me
Let us know what happened. I"m so curious.
Import your private keys into Electrum http://electrum.org/download.html
you could offer a reward on here, I'll bet someone could get them usable for you.
I made several backups, I'm going to try and delete the transactions using pywallet and rescan. Is this an appropriate course of action? I don't think the wallet is damaged.
Yes, it is. Although sometimes the balance shown by QT client does not adjust well, even after a rescan. Happened to me, I had to import the private key to another wallet and send the coins back to another address of the first wallet for it to show the right balance.
G'luck.
1. what is the address holding the 20BTC?
2. is it transaction of satoshidicke sending back a prize?
3. is the wallet damaged?
if it is a transaction sent but never confirmed i is possible to create raw transaction using same inputs. Think about it as double spend. Also the pywallet is still supported by JackJack.

They are all transactions to satoshidice. They aren't all concurrant transactions, they're spaced out and of a small enough amount that I didn't take too much notice at the time, as I was playing with some huge amounts. (Note to self, the martingale NEVER works in the long term).
