Suggestion to admin: don't allow the use of proxy servers. Some users are abusing them and creating multiple accounts, even using multiple accounts at the same time. That's probably to avoid playing real people, since there a so few of them.

Looks like the sites is nonfunctional now. The site loads, but doesn't allow logging in or signing up, so can't play.

It worked for me just now.

I would agree that item 1 in the above post makes this a waste of time.

I think the site has "died" for 2.5 reasons:

1) the freebies have decreased HUGELY. went from 0.5mBTC per free win, to 0.0001mBTC per win. not enough to keep people in an empty room
2) the number of rooms "complicates" things. I dont think i ever saw a bet bigger then a bitcent.
2.5) turned out, once you used up your "free plays", betting an mBTC in an empty room allowed you to keep winning the 0.5mBTC payouts (before site changeup)


I made about 0.16 BTC from the site tho, with no investment of my own, so im a happy player!

what does it consider as a "day"? first or last free play?

I started at about 2am, then played again around 3pm. as of 10am i still cannot play without a bid.

Not only has the daily limit on the number of questions declined, but so has the reward. It used to be 0.001, now it's cut in half to 0.0005.

Are you complaining about free money?

But seriously, you only need to win two "free" rounds to enough to actually bid and make more. Take advantage of that Smiley

id love to submit a few good (yet straightfoward) Q&A for the site in exchange for minimal compensation.

I have a degree in nuclear engineering, so would love to throw in a few good questions about fission, fusion, uranium, etc. (PM me with an offer if you are interested)

Nuclear engineers making a living writing trivia questions! We are all doomed if that's the going rate.

hah i dont consider it my living :p  more like a fun side project where i can earn my way towards my first bitcoin (im at 30mBTC)

@mccorvic - I welcome anyone to submit questions! It's not going to influence your chances of winning much unless you are sending A LOT of questions. The more questions I receive the more diluted your questions will be, so in the end it won't really matter. And you bid before you see the question anyway. If anyone has questions which they'd like to send to me, please email me at [email protected]. I appreciate donations, but if you would like to get paid for them, just name your price and we can work out a deal.

In the near future I hope to have a section of the site dedicated to question submission.

When you are submitting questions, I'll accept any format, but the best format would be either an Excel document with three columns: question, answer and category, or a text file without extra formatting so it is easy to write a script and import the questions.

Played on the site a bit today. Pretty fun stuff!

What's the policy on submitting trivia to you? I'd like to contribute but would hate to be seen as a "cheater" by answering questions I submitted. Since you place your bets before you see the questions, I wouldn't have the option to just not bet. Cheesy

The reason I don't put up the answers afterwards is to prevent bots from harvesting answers to questions. There's a limited number of them, and they cost money to replace. But, you can always ask the chat what the answer was if someone else got it right!

Love the website.  Is there any way to see the answers to the questions after the time runs out?

Yeah, I would be interested in being able to see some of the answers that I don't know/get incorrect.
