Wow, this website is ancient. Keep it up, don't take it down! If you rebrand this into a sort of jackpot website, it would be great.

It has undergone a healthy number of updates and rule changes across the years, and, time permitting, I'm always available to make it better. The thing is there's a real effort in keeping this thing working, and if it get abandoned by users it is just wasted time. When it first started there was quite a bit of volume to it, of course, but then came competition, lots and lots and lots of it and even if I think I did it better than others, these others are *much* better than me at PR and publicity (I suck there), so as new users came and gone, taabl was all but forgotten.

I may try to put some effort in once more, we'll see Smiley What exactly do you mean "a sort of jackpot website"?

It's going down for real??

Talk about a necrobump Smiley

It did go down for real, back in 2011, but came back with a slightly different set of rules. Now, many updates later, it has become all but abandoned, despite my poor attempts at getting people interested again.

As such this historic service, the first ever automated bitcoin lottery, will likely go down soon. But it had a good run Smiley

Last day today, if you haven't done so already go to taabl.datlatec.com and withdraw any coins you might still have there. The server is going offline first thing tomorrow.

So Monday is the day I advertised the lottery site is going offline. I'll probably do it on Tuesday to avoid any timezone issues. After that happens I will still be able to refund any coins there, but it will be much harder to verify user identities, so if you haven't done so already, please collect what's yours asap.

I haven't taken part in TAABL, but to me it looked like the lottery could have been called "Going Down", or maybe the fees were going down. You could edit the title to be more alarmist, like "The Amazing Anonymous Bitcoin Lottery is SHUTTING DOWN, withdraw your funds!"
Yeah, I also got the impression that Going Down was the title of the lottery, that it was some kind of new twist or something. But I guess anyone participating would know what the thread is about anyway.
