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.

Wow, of course he will win the lottery, LOL. Cheesy

It's crazy, I think Hexinary submitted 25 of 27 screenshots. Would have been quite brutal if he had lost :-)

As with all provably fair or luck based games, anything is possible. So if somuchee is REALLY REALLY lucky, he can win, with a kick ass payout from the lottery. Of course there is a MUCH larger chance for hexinary. Did it cost money to enter this? I haven't been on the forums for a while and have not really been following this thread up to now.

Yup, somuchee could have well won this lottery with a bit of luck. However, as Somuchee made the first place in the main competition, so he won some btc anyways. About the cost, nope, did not cost a thing to enter. All you had to do is win big on Slide Dice.

Do not worry about having missed this competition functotry :-) We'll have a new one quite soon.

I have this very short list of trusted users that I email quite frequently to discuss upcoming features and competitions. Actually wanted to add you but did not have your email. If you want me to add you, just email me ([email protected]).

Just a quick update.

I have finally had some time to optimize our page load times. For me page load times are now 2x as fast as previously (2-3s down from about 6s). Our goal is to have all pages load in less than 2 secs, so we still have some work to do in that respect. Bets have remained as fast as they have always been. :-)

During the security review in the past weeks someone has pointed out to me that the way in which we compute rolls might be susceptible to an length extension attack (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_extension_attack). For this reason we have now moved to a more secure algorithm that is similar to the algorithm that site like prime dice and just dice use.

Our roll-computation-algorithm has always been open source and that will not change. You can find our new algorithm below. Anyone should feel free to use that code to their liking. If you have any comments, please let me know.

Code:

// converts a client secret and server secret into an integer between 0 and 9999
function getLuckyNumber (cs, ss) {
    var hex = crypto.createHmac('sha512', ":"+ss+":").update(":"+ss+":"+cs+":").digest('hex')
    var number = luckysplit(hex).number
    return number
}

// converts a hex into an integer between 0 and 9999
function luckysplit(hex) {

    // fetch the first 5 digits and convert to integer
    var head = hex.substring(0,5),
        tail = hex.substring(5),
        lucky = parseInt(head, 16)

    // lucky is an integer between 0 and 1048575 (=16^5 -1)
    // if it is between 0 and 999999 we return it mod 10000 as the result
    if(lucky < 1000000)
        return { number: lucky % 10000, tail: tail }

    // if it is between 1000000 and 1048575 we recurse to avoid any bias
    else if(tail.length >= 5)
        return luckysplit(tail)

    // in case we have reached the end the the string we return the maximal number
    // this is as likely as winning a 4.8% bet 25 times in a row (not likely at all)
    else
        return { number: 9999, tail: '' }
}

Hi vendetahome, you are absolutely right, had not changed my profile yet, but have now (thanks for pointing that out).

By the way, I also have a new twitter account at https://twitter.com/fastbets with exactly 0 followers atm. We will soon have a lottery where my first 100 (or so) followers will qualify to win a prize. So just follow me and you'll be first in line for that lottery :-)

I meant the title in the tab of the site in the browser.. <b>Fast Slots</b> - A New Way to Gamble!

Dunno how to say it, but I hope you get it. I am not sure whether you need to change it, but since it is always FastBets wherever I see in the site, I just thought you should change it too. Wink

May be add a line below, Formerly, Fast Slots or something. Wink

Sorry, I couldn't help much with the hack, since I was tooo busy in RL as well as here.

Cheers and Good luck with the site

ndnhc

Edit: The hacker withdrew in multiple smaller transactions because he was afraid that if the amount was large enough, it might need manual confirmation (and the hack will be found by you, and he won't be getting the withdrawal). So, he tried with a smaller amount, and it went through.
That kind of explains some of his weird actions..

Yeah, I guess title is the perfect way to call that, just that I didn't get it :-). Thanks for pointing that out. Will be fixed with the next update (either today or tomorrow).

As for the withdraws of the hacker, you are right. He never withdrew more than 0,5, most likely out of fear that we have such a system in place. In fact, we did not have such a system then, but do now... :-)

good to hear that fastslots/fastbets is back. i love the competition on your site for the awesome prizes. would like to see few more of those competitions.

Thanks fast2fix, really love the competitions as well. We'll have plenty new ones coming up!

That actually reminds me that I forgot to post the results of the last competition. So here is the final leaderboard:

#1 So Muchhee, wins 0.05
#2 Hexinary, wins 0.02
#3 Hexinary, wins 0.01

The winner of the screenshot lottery is Hexinary, as can be verified using the following codepen:

Congratulations to So Muchhee and Hexinary!

Thanks fox19891989. I lost around 5btc. Wasn't much fun.

Thanks for pointing out that I have not updated the original post yet. Have just updated the wording and the links, will do a new poster tonight (I like to do this kind of stuff in the evening when my mind gets soft :-)

Congratz on the rebranding!! Cheesy

The title is still Fast Slots but everything else is Fast Bets. Is it intended? So that they can recognize the site immediately?

Also consider adding a light theme to the current one. Wink

Hi ndnhc, always nice to see you around, not only because you were the first to comment here :-) I'm not 100% sure what you mean by title. I'm guessing you are talking about my original post. In this case I'll change the poster tonight. If you meant something else, please let me know.

About the light theme, that would really be very cool. I will put it onto my todo list, but this one might take a bit cause it's quite a lot of work. However, I'd like to say that these are like my favorite kinds of comments, cause it really helps me to decide what to do next.

Apart from the poster in OP, you should also change the "website" in your profile https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/fastslots-307758 as well as your signature.
