This is nice amount 0.05BTC.Should I let my bitcoin address too here or there on twitter ? I think same there should be some restrictions to prevent abuse like twitter account must not be fresh created something like this.

Hi newcripto, you don't have to give me your address. Just follow me at @fastbets and you will automatically enter the lottery. I will get in touch in case you win to give you your 0.05btc :-)

We actually have a few restrictions in place to prevent abuse. To enter the competition you must have at least 50 followers and you must have at least 100 tweets. Other than that anybody can enter for free :-)

That is a good point. So let me lay down the fine print. To participate in the lottery:

* You need to be one of the first 100 followers of @fastbets.
* You need to have at least 50 followers.

Now the rules fit it more appropriately but do aware that people can still easily abuse this, so another way is to check on 100 followers manually and see if it is control by the same people or no

i think restrcit for newbie to enter in that competition so someone can easily cheat you by creating new account.

New account or newbie doesnt matter in this giveaway since this giveaways is using a twitter account and you do not need to post here using bitcointalk account to join it , you just need to follow with your twitter handle

Thanks a lot for your input arallmuus and trafficolaa. Have now added an restriction that participants need to have at least 100 tweets. Ultimately I cannot really prevent abuse, but I think it's just not worth it to create 100 accounts with 50 followers and 100 tweets just to get 0.05btc.

We have a new Twitter @fastbets! My first 100 followers will enter a lottery to win 0.05btc. Would be great to get as many forum members as possible into that group :-)

It seems like you need to put on some limitation to the twitter account for the X number of followers since this can be easily abused and do some checking for the follower, since it might be control by 1 people. I could easily create 50 accounts and follow up each other and follow you to win the 0.05 BTC lottery

The winner of the lottery will be determined as soon as I have 100 followers using the provably fair algorithm here: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/waawyx?editors=101.

The winner of the lottery will win 0.05 btc and it does not cost a satoshi to enter. Just follow me @fastbets to participate :-)

it seems interesting campaign with 0.05 btc lottery, so count me in for that you will get that 100 followers,

I am one of the first followers , waiting for tweets and the draw.

Hi Joksim, awesome, thanks for following!

I'm gonna be tweeting about gambling, bitcoin, and indie gaming. Basically the stuff I'm into personally. The draw will happen once I have 100 followers, so feel free to ask your friends to join to speed up the process :-)

Don't have a twitter unfortunately. Is there something equivalent for facebook maybe?

Not yet, but we'll try to get that going soon :-)

Thanks mate

I really like twitter, the last one (@fastslots) went quite well. Nice thing about twitter is that I can not only post updates about FastBets, but also about other stuff I find interesting :-)

With all the design stuff, as you get larger of course you will have to add more features to your site, so you have to be careful. One of the favorite parts of your site is the design, and as you add more features and add more buttons, notifications, elements, it might get cluttered and thus not be clean or simple anymore.

Yeah, feature creep is really hard to avoid. Please let me know when it gets started on FastBets. It's sometimes harder to notice from the inside...

When it gets too cluttered I will be sure to complain here lol. When you spend SO much time designing things its hard to see flaws because you have been looking at it so much. I have designed many sites and some flaws that are VERY obvious are missed by me.

I know exactly what you are talking about :-)

Just wanted to let people know about our latest feature update: The bet sizes now adapt to your balance more dynamically. Basically, whenever the balance changes by a factor of 2 (up or down) the bet sizes are adjusted accordingly. Of course we always warn users when we change the bet size.

This might sound like a slightly boring technical change, but in practice I think this this will allow you to gamble about 5x longer (depending on the size of your deposit) for the same amount of money and will give you more time to recover from a loosing streak.

Like almost everything we do this feature has been suggested by our users. If there is something that annoys you on FastBets, just let me know and we'll try to fix it. :-)

Not boring at all. I hated having to refresh the page when I won/lost alot because all the options were either too small or too big. It should also auto update which I believe you just added, because refreshing to update is not fun at all. This was a good decision, you shouldn't notify when the bets are being chanced unless the user is betting fast.

Cool, great to hear that you like the feature :-) The old version was really annoying. I think we will have to stick to the warnings though, otherwise a user might submit a bet that he/she has not intended to submit because he/she did not notice that the bet size on the button has changed.

I'm not sure if the threshold is configured correctly though. If these popups happen too often or the bet size does not change often enough, just let me know and I can adapt.

Maybe something without an accept button. Something that pops up and makes a noise for 1 second, so you notice it but its not intrusive, having to press accept or close a popup whenever you win/lose a bet. Your site is very clean, keep it that away, I am a personal fan of clean designs like that.

Yeah, something like that would be better. Will think about how to do it best, but keep it this way until then to not trick anyone into an unwanted bet. And thanks a lot for your compliment about our design :-) Much appreciated.
