with CrowdDice.com there would never be such a problem, you'll never play against the house, but against other players
bad luck for 1DiCe1 and investors
Same at ED. You weren't playing against the site, you were playing against the investors. The site made a profit from every bet, just like you do on your site.
It's much the same. You could decide to run off with player funds at any time, since you hold them which the bets are pending.
Glad to see you commented on my post, dooglus. I see you as one of the most trust-worthy members in this forum.
I really like your site, Just-Dice. It has way more payout & profit levels than my site, so it's currently the best for professional dice players. And not a direct competition of my site. As my site is more intended for casual players, such as a small simple dice game between community friends.
However, there're a few differences I'd like to clarify between "Investor" on ED or JD and game creators on my site
1. Unlike investor, game creators are players themselves, so has the potential to instantly double his/her wager ( or lose it if bad luck )
2. Unlike investor, profits of Game creators is not proportional how much they put in my site, it's about turn-arounds, Ideally, game creators can deposit only enough fund to create one game, and re-create the game as soon as it's played by a player. So game creators don't really need to put in a lot of fund at once.
3. Unlike investor, Game creator has control over how their game is visible to the players, through our creator link system, he/she can advertise his/her games and increase the rate it's played.
Of course I may get something wrong, dooglus please feel free to correct me
