Teh boss apparently had a lot of fun with it. Up 200 BTC on the first day I hear.

Yes, when a tournament starts, a new tab opens up to keep track of the details of it, and it's automatically foregrounded.  It will be in the lower left part of the client screen.

Just joined the other day out of curiosity and even though I was completely lost and clueless, I've been having loads of fun running around and exploring and gamboling it up. Finding a mentor is super helpful in learning the ropes. Anyway, with the help of my mentor, (Special shout out to my mentor, Umuri, btw. Thanks, man!) I've leveled up nicely.

Newb question about the big tournament thing since I'm here: Will there be a counter or somethng keeping track of our spins and btm spent during the tourney? I don't mind spewing btm, I'm just curious if I'll be able to keep track of my play for the tourney.

Thanks

a typical tourney in DT is limited to number of plays, amount of btc spent (overall or per play), or sometimes they are limited to certain games.

I'm not running the tournament, but I love participating in them.

This one looks to be 100 btm entry fee and is running for 24 hours (Longer than most usually do. The usual is an hour or two).

Once the tournament has begun, if you log in, you will see a new panel on the lower left of the screen showing your stats and the rankings.

This tourney is 100 "spin limit", 100 btm "spend limit", and wagers up to 5btm for all non-PVP games (almost all games are non-PVP).

This means that you have 24 hours to spend up to 100 btms from your in-game wallet, up to 5 btm at a time, on any game you think you will win the most at. You could play games for 1 btm a hundred times or for 5 btms twenty times or anything in between until you've spent 100 btms in bets or played 100 times (whichever comes first). Whoever wins the most from those bets wins the tourney.

After the 24 hours is up, the system will automatically pay out the winners. This one looks like it was set to pay 2 btc split proportionally amongst the top 30 winners (though there will likely be fewer than 30 entrants).

Good luck!

Just like to drop in and say that Teppy is one hell of an admin.

He is so passionate about his project and so good at making the endless world that you must make for MMORGs to be fun.

this is such a unique and complex gambling product that is of course only made possible by btc.  when a user smokes, and the btc wafts through the air, and the other users rush to it... you can't get that social gaming aspect if you don't have something slightly valuable, because as we have learned we are all selfish, highly evolved animals looking out for #1.  But it's amazing... a btc MMORG preys on the human nature of wanting a little bit of money for doing something.  It satisfies the brain really well, and I just want to publicly blow Teppy a little bit for being so awesome and staying so dedicated to his project. 

A shining example of a well-run btc gambling business bringing something totally new and never done before.   In full disclosure, Teppy bought advertising on DonkDown, but my reputation is pretty stellar for not being paid to say anything.  These are my genuine thoughts after running around DT, getting to level 2 with some help, and sailing to the special island.  I just signed up for the Dec. 2nd tournament.  I still don't have a clue what the competition will entail, but I'm in and I love it.

Sorry to hear that I missed it. I hope you do some fun Christmas events too.

We're doing a halving-day celebration today, a freerolls tournament with 5 BTC in prizes. You'll need to get to Xinren island to join, which means reaching level 2. If you've never played Dragon's Tale, takes 30 minutes or so, and can easily be done without depositing. Just ask around in-game and someone will be glad to help level you up!

Typically around 20 players will participate in a tournament like this, so that's about 0.25 BTC in prizes per person, for free.

We'll, I do now. Thank you for the correction.

You know it's bated.

I just won a real cigar by betting on their smoking game!
Can't wait to get it.

I realize this is short notice, but in about an hour we're having a fishing tournament in-game with 10 BTC of prizes. It's actually a pair of tournaments, one for Level 0-4 players, and one for Level 5+. I only see about ten Level 0-4 players logged in right now, so there's a very good chance as a new player to win some Bitcoins. (The way the tournament is structured, a prize of 0.25 BTC would be likely.)

The grand prize for the Level 0-4 players is 1 BTC, and for Level 5+ players it's 3 BTC.

Yes. We're all waiting with bated breath to see what he'll break next. I believe he hit 950btc on shrines recently. Jase is definitely the biggest high roller in the game right now.

Nice going.

I'm not sure if herb announcements here are the most efficient method.

By the time someone checks here, odds are it's gone.

Though, I do sympathize with you that it sucks when you don't have your own license and no one is online to collect.

Found a 20BTM herb, nobody with herb license online
visit glados!

Yeah, Jase is crazy, but it's fun to watch him tempt the fates and win huge sometimes.

And that record has now been broken - today we had a 600 BTC jackpot on a Coconut Tree. To be fair, it was a 300 BTC bet. (The previous record of 520 BTC was on a 90 BTC bet.)

We just had the single biggest jackpot in Dragon's Tale history. The player who won ("Jase") didn't want to post here directly because he uses his real name on the forums, so I'm posting for him:

I'm just going to make a new account. I'm not sure what I can do in terms of verifying the account, so I'm just going to start over.

Yeah, I don't have a way to know if the person posting here is the same one as the one who "should" have access to that account. Anonymous accounts + annonymous money = better keep your password safe

Assuming minimal funds in the account, might be better to just create a new one from scratch. If you can verify something about the account, I can at least fix your level.
