Given the preliminary results of the pool, I have decided to try smaller rounds from now on.

A round just finished on the finney mode, winners have been paid, so I took the opportunity to change the settings for the next round.

Now both modes have an average round size of 8 players !
Also the fees have been haveld on the finney mode.
It's now only 0.25% information cost.

Have fun and let me know what you think about the changes Smiley

I have started a pool on the forum to know what you think about the settings of the game, please give me your feedback there or here.

Given the first few results, I decided to refund the current round and lower the size of the rounds for the 1ETH game mode.
The round of the 1 ETH game mode are now from 6 to 10 players, so it will be much quicker.

The finney mode remains unchanged for now and the second round is almost over !
It may end in 2 players min or 6 max !

The website was down for a small upgrade tonight.

It's back up and running.

You can now check your player history.

Regarding the game, we still need more players for things to be really interesting.

Do you want me to lower the round size so it goes faster ?
currently the round size is between 16 and 20 players.

we could make it 8 to 12 for instance.

What do you think ?

Hello folks,

Let me introduce a new Ethereum game, I just launched with a full real-time website :

MATCHING ETHERS
www.matching-ethers.com

Ether Game Mode : (play for 1 ETH)
http://etherscan.io/address/0x31e13882c45c1023d9b16c3794c1a780bb6cb88d

Finney Game Mode : (play for 0.1 ETH)
http://etherscan.io/address/0x2c2e3baa2191cf325a28a01ff42340f2ae677572

It's a strategy and luck based game derived from the old (game-theory) classic Matching Pennies.
There are 2 game modes, each with its own contract, you can play for 0.1 ETH and for 1ETH.

To play Matching Ethers, when you send your bet, you also have to choose if you want your coin to be upside or flipped.

The game is round based (average size of 18 for now), and depending on when you enter the round, you will be assigned  to one of 2 teams : the matchers and the contrarians.

At the (random) end of the round, each matcher will be (randomly) paired with a contrarian:
If both bets are on the same side, the matcher wins.
If the sides of the bets are different, the contrarian wins.


Now the thing is that the latter you enter the round the more information you have and have increased chance to win. To counter this, the game implements an information cost (deduced from winner payout) that increases with the order of entry in the round. First 2 players in round have 0% info cost, Player 3 and 4 will have a 0.5% info cost, Player 4 and 5 will have a 1% info cost ... This also serves as a small house fee (~1% on average) (to pay for domain/server/time).

You can play several times per round, so don't hesitate to try out some elaborate strategies !

How to play ?
Directly :
- send exactly the value of the bet to place it upside.
- or send (a bit) more to flip your coin ! (any excess is refunded immediatly)

Via mist :
Import the contract (using the ABI provided in the links below) and use the play function.

Please don't hesitate to give me your feedback on the game and possible improvements.
I have made the contract in a way that I can easily adjust the parameters after each round to improve the game experience depending on the community feedback. We can adjust the min and max size of the rounds, the value of the bet, the information cost ...

Have fun and Good Luck Smiley !

Ps: The website takes rougly 15 secs to load, it's on a low cost server (~0.5 ETH per month at actual price), I'll update the server if the game is successful Smiley
