Seriously, good luck with the new site, I'll keep an eye on this thread.

After considering the views and suggestions of all community members, we have come to the conclusion that our product is sub-par and needed complete overhaul. Therefore, we are closing current DogeDraw website at 20th October, 00:00 (+5:30). We will launch new website with new branding, new design, new features, on-chain betting and much more. The release of new site is scheduled after Christmas. A reminder for current members, if you have any outstanding balance on site, please withdraw it before 20th October.


Hi Dave,
We are getting numerous SQL Injection attacks everyday. Although site is adequately secured against such attacks but everytime someone tries this hack attempt, it alters the content of user.ini file and turn on the error_reporting. I have to manually turn it off.
I am not a big fan of PHP+SQL. That's why we are shifting our assets to node.js based application and now we are building new database in MongoDB.

@webtricks not sure if you are still paying attention to this thread during your ban but, the site seems to be having issues. Dozens of PHP errors are popping up when you go to it.

I just checked on the site and it is pretty good to play as I can see because there is faucet for us to claim and using this faucet to play seems available. So many of new players will be able to try it before make a deposit. But what I concern about, can we buy more than 1 tickets here? If I do the math here may be I can make some fortune here? For 1 doge cost per tickets is affordable for every tier of players here

webtricks, the OP wound up with a 30 day ban:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/i-think-my-ban-is-harsh-can-it-be-reduced-to-7-from-30-days-5185558

So there might not be much activity here for a little while. No idea if any of his partners post here, but if they to it would be good if they put that on the site to prevent impostors.

-Dave

^ Upon reading they also accept Bitcoin as a payment to deposit. Probably the main crypto that they accept is DOGECOIN and probably because of their company name. "DogeDraw". The site is very simple and yeah, probably it needs more to develop and I don't have any issue in pop up of ads because you don't need to stay longer on site. Just buy tickets and leave, come back when you wanted to know what is the draw result. I have a suggestion to OP, probably it is good if you have telegram channel for the announcement of result and when the draw starts.

OP your website reminds me faucetgame if you remember that.
Despite the fact that design is very simple and unprofessional, still seems good, revives old vibes in me that I have from FG and freebitco.
As I see there are some crypto lottery websites are opened, well, their direction is mostly huge rewards but in this situation it's different. I have one question, what was the reason of choosing dogecoin over bitcoin for example? Or you could even unite these two (more currencies mean increased number of customers).

why you dont like coinpayments?  coinpayments is one of the leading payment methods today and they also have thier sig campaign here before , that was the first time i saw them  but now they are now popular but your suggestion is also good .

 not all users dont like a certain payment method so they will always look for other alternatives but if they cant find it , they will migrate on other site that they are more contented with  . btw ,  its nice to see a  gambling / faucet dedicated  for doge coin lovers like me

No other option for adding fund? It's sending me to check out with coinpayments which I don't like. It would be better if you create a deposit address for each of the new account and users can directly load via that address. If you continue with coinpayments, I think more users will give up.

4 draws already for the Basic lottery but it seems that all of them are coming from the faucet and the giveaway few days back. I checked the last draw on the basic lottery and I see that someone win all the prizes even he won two prizes (1st and 3rd) with the same number (44) as I assume the number in front of their name is the lottery ticket numbers. If it is right then it means that 1 ticket number can win all the prizes if someone is lucky enough?

This day I was login the site and I found out that the faucet was an increase, this is good because at this faucet we can buy 2 tickets in basic option. In 60 seconds interval, I can claim free 2 dogecoin. But I don't know how many times they allow users to claim faucet everyday, I think this is prone to cheaters those who always abusing the faucet.

Was talking about the ads on the top actually and they were quite distracting. If you could place them in smaller sizes, it could be better for the website overall. No one likes ads plastered all over a site which simply ruins the UI.

Also, I tried accessing your site again and it is a complete mess now. So many warnings(Undefined constants etc). I think you guys need to take more time to polish the site before launching it to the public.

Maybe you are right that 40% is standard commission for other lotteries worldwide but how about in this crypto gambling industry? Is there any bitcoin/crypto lotteries with such high commission? Just for an example, crypto-games.net also provide lottery game and all money raised from tickets sales goes to winners. Indeed it is not their main game as it is just an additional games for their players to bet against other players. I do not mean to compare your game with other site specifically but just want you to know that most crypto lottery has lower commission that yours. Even they have lower commission, the fact says that it is still hard for them to get active players who buy tickets regularly.


I hope you are right and you'll get 1000 members on the platform but to be honest I doubt it because the interest for lottery game like what you have is just so low in this bitcon/crypto gambling industry.

Well, just a little math. There are 49 lottery tickets, once all of ticket are sold out, the lottery will begin ASAP, price of the lowest lottery is 1 doge, first place get 25 doge, so the site will get 7 doge? (49tickets*1 doge - 25 doge - 10 doge - 5 doge - 2 doge)

Super duper agree to you dude as long as we all know this gambling site have a license to operate we dont need to be scared and personally I like the graphic and design of this lottery site but you need to improve the need of your customers to bring excitement and fun.

it seems like a nice idea and it is kinda fun.. it sure could use some modern graphics upgrades from this century and not from the last one!
only time will tell if this takes off or not but all in all it seems like something that could actually make a rank if the owners and operators are open and honest and remain that way!
sure needs a bit of tweeks here and there but i hope to see it still around in a few months without issues and such.
good luck DEV

I agree with @Stakefast, balance should be visible on the entire site, as well as easy access to your wallet functions (deposit/withdraw). Site design looks like you were using Windows 95.

Hmm some new Doge lottery.First observation- Quite irritated with those ads but well its just normal for monetizing of the site.
Do suggest to work more in sites design coz it isnt really that attractive.

Some glimpse or proof of sites bankroll?

We would add it to https://blockz.network if you change a few things:


1. Make clear how much balance you have from the very beggining of visiting the site (Balance at the very top)
2. Add like 1-2 Doge as a Bonus to the registration verification (Email verification or Phone)
2. Change the background to somewhat more consistent so you can see everything
3. Add a real faucet (not just following and tweeting on twitter, a real faucet where you just need to click a button to get it every hour for example)
4. Do not offer ad spots on your site because people will abuse it and advertise their affiliate site where your site is not benefiting from (user will leave your site)

Well, it doesn't matter who's the owner as long as there is customer support. In the crypto space gambling industry they have the right to hide as long as you have a license to operate. There are some gambling sites here that the owner is anonymous. Well, upon visiting the site it's looks good but I hope it will long last not just like the gambling site before where I joined but they are gone now without paying their bounty promoters. Indeed, looks very interesting and we can buy a very cheap tickets.

I'm sorry we can't disclose the details of owners as it is not a common practice in Crypto Gambling industry. But as for record, we are currently 4 members including me, 2 developers and one more.
We have just added Bitcoin as a deposit medium. So if you want to deposit Bitcoin, go to Add Funds page, add your desirable amount in terms of DOGE and when you proceed you can choose to pay either in Dogecoin or Bitcoin. CoinPayments will automatically convert BTC equivalent to the amount of DOGE you want to deposit. However, amount will still be appear in terms of DOGE in your balance after your deposit is processed.

Who are the team behind this project it important we know the owner so as to bursts our confidence in Dogedrew, I see the website is built with high definition features which is an indication of seriousness and at the same time do you accept bitcoin as a form of deposits because I can't find that option on the site.

I already check this site, I thought it is a old project but I am wrong this is a new project. But as a new project it has a good start. But there is also many thing that need to improves and innovate specially the graphics because all we know that lottery is the easiest but famous game here in crypto world so you will need to be attractive.

I visited the website, I hope more work will be done on it , nice idea by a member here. I personally like the idea of using dogecoin as the focus. This could start giving some push to dogecoin by the time the site is known. I think some media work and campaign will help.

Thanks for your concern. I will forward the issue to my team member. I will come back to you on this by tomorrow.

THIS IS MEGA IMPORTANT:
I looked at the headers of the email that I did get (blocked my address)
You are running PHPMailer 5.2.4 THIS IS AN OLD VERSION WITH MANY KNOWN EXPLOITS.

Check here and please update it. This is probably why I did not get it the 1st time. Many places are blocking old versions by default when they see vulnerable versions in the header.

You need to have your programmer fix this.

1. It is always advisable to collect email address of users. From small to big business, everyone does so. Businesses need some medium to communicate with users and vice-versa. Whereas, name field is not mandatory. It is asked to make emails and other communication more personal. If you are not ok with it, you can leave that field blank while signup.
2. I don't know why you didn't get the email, there is no bug on our end. Maybe your email client is assuming our mail to be suspicious and showing it in Spam Folder. Do check Spam folder too.
3. Yeah, Faucet page lacks some greate designing at the moment but as far as I checked no text or object on Faucet page is in black color. I personally made sure everything is visible. I think the problem is that CSS didn't load completely because your device maybe limiting the content.

So:

1) For a small lottery site I'm not sure why you need my real name and an email address. Plenty of places do not ask for this.
2) Never got the email with the activation code. (going to a yahoo account I keep for stuff like this) I had to use a different one
3) The faucet page looks like some css is missing or something. Black text on the patterned background.

-Dave

Hello,
I see other members have no problem in opening Free DOGE page, maybe there is some problem with your IP address. Try once again and don't lock your session with IP on login page. I think it will work out.


You mean ad positioning is wrong or the quality of ads displaying is wrong? Also are you referring to top one or the below ones?

Just checked out your site and the design is alright, but the ads on the front page are cluttered and messy and need some tidying up(Perhaps trying getting rid of one of them). The 5% lifetime referral commission is a big plus point in my opinion.

Good to see you listening to feedback and implementing a provably fair system soon. Site does have potential, but it seems like it is in preview mode at the moment(Needs a lot of improvements - FAQ etc).

Yes. Lottery draws once all tickets sold out.
Don't forget to claim some free DOGE here:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/get-free-dogecoins-to-test-our-new-site-5185214 

Good to know there is another gambling lottery still comes up even some are encountered failure. I was visited on the site and it looks good, very simple but yet there's something lack on it and it is already discussed above. Just want to clarify this, it will draw if once all tickets sold out? Good stuff there is also a faucet and we can test our luck on your site, I will register later today.

Ps. just share my 2 cents.

Do you know what is average standard commission on lottery worldwide? It is roughly around 40%. We have set 14.28% commission after much research. Moreoever, we pay 5% referral commission and cover deposit fees of CoinPayments so it is reasonable.
The main problem with time-based lottery is no guarantee of fixed return. In most of the cases, no one actually wins the lottery or winning amount is decided on the basis of tickets sold less commission. It is more a sort of gambling than lottery. Hence, we decided to launch a variant which is not time-bound and guarantees fixed return. However, based on response we may launch time-based lottery variant in future too. Also the ticket price ranges from roughly just $0.004 to $4. I don't think it will take weeks and months to draw rounds when there will be more than 1000 members on platform.
The winners are drawn through mt_rand PHP script which randomly picks 4 numbers from 1 to 49 once all 49 tickets are sold. However, currently no client seed is generated so you can't verify that. I think provably fair is more desirable in gambling than in lottery because here user doesn't play against system but against other users. But no problem, we can build a system through which user can get client seed on every ticket purchase. They can later verify that with server seed once the round of lottery ends. This feature will be added within this week.

So you take more than 14% for every draw of the lottery? Dont you think it is too much?
There is also no deadline for the lottery, means that players should wait until all tickets are sold. How if all tickets are not sold after few weeks or months?
The main problem from lottery game is the lack of players, maybe some people are interested to buy few tickets but I dont think they want to wait for too long time for the draw.
Last one, how do you draw the winners? Is it provably fair? I cant find any information on how you draw the lottery, sorry if I missed it.

Thanks for your suggestion. We will build the FAQ section for the users.


Thank you for your review. We will try making interface more pleasant and informative. However, there is always a catch with dark theme, it looks like unfinished.

Hello,
I will be taking all the doubts and queries on forum. I am part of DogeDraw team. I am a member of forum from last 3 years and have adequate reputation here.
I think you misread the terms & conditions. It is completely legal to use cryptocurrencies in our local jurisdiction. However, there is no law governing cryptocurrencies therefore our site being crypto-related is not liable to any prosecution here except if we scam anyone for value of money. Any earnings from site will be taxable under the personal name of admins. So this point simply means name 'DogeDraw' has no legal and taxable entity in India. All issues will be taken to perosnal name of admins, like in every other online business happens.
I hope I was able to give you some satisfactory reply.


Hello,
You can 100% transfer funds from your personal wallet to our site. We use CoinPayments as the payment processor. All you have to do is:
1. Visit add funds page by clicking 'Add Funds' in the menu.
2. Choose the amount of Dogecoin you want to deposit, minimum being 10 DOGE. The default payment processor will be 'Coinpayments' and you don't have to change it.  
3. Click buy and it will redirect you to coinpayment site.
4. A DOGE address will be generated. You just have to send required DOGE from your personal wallet to that address and the same value will be deposited in your balance on DogeDraw.

Any more help needed? I'm here to assist.

I have visited your website and not much information can be found there, and it doesn't look very attractive.
Looks like your web isn't ready yet.

Waiting for OP response on @Coolcryptovator queries because we are the same question that I also wanted to know. I suggest need developing the site because there is no FAQ for easiest way to search major question. Term of Service is too long to read and the way to skip this it should have a FAQ.

I'm now registered on this new lottery gambling site and I saw there are 17 members only who are registered(including me). I think it's better to have other promotion like a signature campaign and other social media promotions to have better exposure on your brand name. Otherwise, the lottery gambling feature is not much more look attractive to the gamblers. There are too many gambling lotteries launched here before but they are failed and shutdown.

Anyway, Welcome to the gambling industry and good luck with your project. I hope not only Dogecoin use to deposit and also Bitcoin.

I have registered with your website. I wanted to transfer dogecoin from my personal wallet to my account with your website but, I do not see any option there. I assume you guys have not enabled this service. There only option to purchase dogecoin. I am not in a mood to purchase dogecoin anymore. Thanks

Who is the owner of DogeDraw? At least we should know him on this forum or if there is any support account. And who will solve the issue on this forum if happen something wrong? I have visited your website, design is not much attractive by the way and not sure your how will popular your lottery game. Because as far as I not not much people interested on lottery nowadays. I had read your terms & conditions, there is no sufficient information really. You should more concentrate on your terms & conditions, otherwise you might face problems on near future.

Can you explain more briefly about below point of your terms & conditions?
Are you sure about this point since you are gathering money from worldwide? What about USA or like other jurisdiction who doesn't allow lottery or any other gambling? Even you don't have licence from your local country? If not then why ? Is it not necessary since there is matter of TAX and you can't hide your website from your local government.

We are giving away free DOGE to try our platform. Visit this thread for more info: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/get-free-dogecoins-to-test-our-new-site-5185214
