Hi all fish fans!

We received several requests proposing us to always wait for payments to be confirmed after the end of the round. What do you think about the idea to introduce some specified interval (1 hour?) after the end of each round? If the payment is received before the end of the round and confirmed within this additional interval, then it could be counted. Winners would be able to be announced after that.

The truth is that sometimes players have no control over whether their transaction will be confirmed in the next block or in the next after next... (their wallet can generate some strange transaction with lower priority...)



No no no. That would take out all the fun Sad

I think you should take some fee for not confirmed.
Maybe not full fee but maybe 0.5% or something.

Also... when will payments be automated? 

Now it's almost automated... we have got a big red button that has to be manually pushed. It's better to check it personaly than to trust completely computers... remember Mr. Karpeles. ;-) Plus, now we usually wait few more blocks, to be able to include refunded transactions (those confirmed after the end of the round) into the same transaction together with payouts for winners.

Wow, this round is awesome!
I saw some advertise at freebitcoin, maybe that helped?

Almost 0.2BTC sent!

I was trying to advertise a bit via social media too - great game...  Problem was, most of the bets were nearing the end... I deposited twice and my second one didn't make it through xD

Also... when will payments be automated?  

I guess they will get automated after this isn't beta anymore.
They have to be manually now just in case something goes wrong.

If someone want to they can advertise very cheaply in these sites:
http://coinad.com/?a=Advertise
24banner http://stealthepixels.com/your-ad-here/
or
Pixel page http://stealthepixels.com/ (for this, contact me and I will give you 20% discount!)

can you explain me what's the deal with this game

Pretty much you send some btc to the fish of your choice. if that fish has more btc sent to it than the other fish at the end of the round, all users who sent money to the winning fish collect a cut of the bitcoin from the losing fish. I havent tried yet but im sure this is how it works, correct me if im wrong.

Woo, the first time i came to the site i didn't remember the fees being that high. really doesn't seem worth it to make small bets at that kind of cut. Seems like that would only kill the game... Just my opinion.

On the other hand, the fee is almost zero within the first hour after the start of the round. ;-)

Theoretically, we may try the full range 0 % to 100 % during the round. You just have to consider the "real" end of the round coming sooner than the physical one - at the moment when it is too risky or not profitable to make any more bets. Plus, it would be compensated with higher jackpot, of course. It would be different game, but not necessarilly less attractive, IMHO.

I'm wondering, how is this game provably fair??? o.O

Provably fair - because everything is in the blockchain, no additional data for calculations (you can recalculate all winnings simply by using public blockchain data).

Current fee increasing every seconds  Tongue
No more interesting for me.... bye bye  Grin

Thanks for 0.1 BTC profit! Smiley

We are just testing various alternatives... what is more interesting for players...

Floating fee should eliminate battle of payments near the end of each round. Moreover, players need more to calculate and decide more quickly - it is more about strategy than just brute force of money.

But we will see... maybe both versions of the game (or even more) could run simultaneously...

Your game going to popular now  Grin
You should update your OP Cheesy
Really, it should.  I'm starting to send some micro transactions and see how it does. Very simply yet cool game, I'm surprised it's not that popular yet Tongue

A nice game, which prompted me to do a bit of mathematical analysis on it.

Wow, thank you for math analysis!
We are going to complicate it a little bit in the next round, stay tuned! Smiley
