Bump!
Was trying to find an old address and discovered a strange transaction, so I googled it and discovered this old thread.
There should definitely be a winner now

great, a potential new participant!
Did you read the rules? You need to send 0.01140801 BTC to 1Ge7zgS2H6QmxG7m78rgAKsVbfn92nse3G.
Your guess will be recorded by the blockchain and nobody else can claim that date
This incentiveses others to participate because now some days are "locked" AND the jackpot goes up.
Ups, I didn't read with careful, to big 0.01 for me
Maybe I'll thinking again
ok, no problem mate
I know 0.01 isn't cheap. It wasn't intended to be an expensive guessing game. And I should probably made it cheaper, but it is impossible to change it now. I'll create a new one for the 10000 USD mark and the ticket price will be lower

Still alive guys
If a new rally starts, we could reach the gold price within one month. Don't forget that this rule:
Wich means that the earliest guess you can make is 2014-07-26
the advantage is that if you do this, you "lock" all dates before that date as yours, because nobody placed a guess close to that date (and it isn't possible due to the rules)

Goldprice going down... BTC on the verge of a new rally?
Parity date could be closer than we think... Who knows?
Also... You can participate in Risto's Prediction game.
You need to predict the exchnage rate for the last day of the month in 2014. And the first prize is above 1 BTC !!

to give this game a boost, I decided to drastically change rule number 2:
this means that if you think we will reach partity in the next 14 days, you need to post your guess NOW!
PS: this change of the rule does not affect any of the current guesses. Only one is still valid, but dates back from januari.
PPS: I still got the private key from this address

§2 You can not guess the "parity date" as the current date or a day in the next 2 weeks (so 14 days total).
For example: When the current GMT date is 2013-11-01 you can not guess/claim 2013-11-01, 2013-11-02, ..., 2013-11-13 and 2013-11-14.
These invalid guesses will also be refunded (minus transaction costs)

I edited rule §6 to distribute more prizes
Current prizes:
[1] 70 mBTC
[2] 4.644505 mBTC
[3] 2.3222525 mBTC
edit: note that the original rule was that I received 100% of the mBTC paid for the guesses
This should be an incentive to guess again! If you get the second price, you get almost half of your ticket back

Quote
§6 The winner (the one who was closest to the actual date) wins all the tickets. If the winning date is at an equal "distance" of 2 guesses, the jackpot will be split amoung them.
The person on the second place wins 50% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
The person on the thrid place wins 25% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
If the jackpot for the first place was split, the person on the third place will receive 75% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
If there is an ex aeqo for the second place, they will both receive 37.5% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.

before the crash, we came really close, but no gold parity...
Will we hit it soon, or will we need to wait for more weeks or even months?

Hi all, hi dnaleor!
I'm the owner of todays vote. Seems like it's not a bad bet, although this being saturday, the market might be slower as in workdays.
Wish me luck!
And dnaleor, regardless of the results, make another interesting guessing game like this

good luck!
we are very close now! BTCaverage was already >1150 USD. Target is 1252.50 USD !!!
and yes, considering other games, but with a few adjustlents:
*lower ticket price (maybe 0.005 or even 0.001), but I need to think of a way to "shorten" the date then...
*maybe a rule that guesses need to be posted 5 days in advance or something?
What do you guys think?
I was thinking to set up a new game for the 10000 USD mark
(or, if there is enough interest, 5000 USD also)edit: if it happens between 20:00 and 00:00 GMT today, I will not be able to post it here and celebrate with you, because I need to go to a party... But just wait 12 hours and you will get your prize
edit2: I found a way to lower the ticket price and still be able to put the guess in the date:
if the ticket price is 0.001, a guess would look like this: 0.00113365
This means year 2013 day 365 (31 december)
!!! do not use this method to post guesses for this game. The rule of the first post need to be followed !!!

bitcoin is going down a little on bitcoinaverage.com the last 5min close is 1056.25

The earliest guess (2013-11-26 by 1Mwbsy6g2fR1DMe1AhDcCeU8Wzoz9NRS6Y) was wrong, but he still has a chance to win. If it is today or tomorrow, he still wins, because those days are unclaimable due to rule 2.
Exciting times We broke the 1000 USD barrier, so now the next significant level is Gold Parity !!!

Ok, reorganized the opening post a little, to make it clear.
This is the first time I organize a game, so the rules were not clear.
The posted rules are final now. No changes to the rules will be made.
Please note that rule §2 changed a little, to avoid "last minute guesses":
edit: I waited to change this rule to not affect the game. I introduce this today, because, according to the old rules, you can not guess on todays date. But the date of tomorrow is already claimed, so this rule change does not affect the game. The only thing that changed is that, if you want to guess 2013-11-27 as parity date, you need to claim that date today!

You can not guess the "parity date" as the current date or the next day.
For exemple: When the current GMT date is 2013-11-01 you can not guess/claim 2013-11-01 and 2013-11-02.
These invalid guesses will also be refunded (minus transaction costs)

I haven't voted in this, but this voting system seems like it could be used widely. A system where every voter can be verified (if necessary) (through signing the address), fraudulent voting could be eliminated, and the record of the vote is permanently recorded in the blockchain so cannot be altered by a corrupt organisation. Would this work? Or am I missing something here...
I guess it would work
you even have a timestamp

When this date does happen, I believe there'll be much news and fanfare.
You should allow multiple people to bet on the same date. They would just share the pot.

hmmm, Pente joined with the current rules, so I dont think I can change them.
And I think it is more exciting to "lock" a date now in stead of allowing different people for the same date.
It is too easy to "guess" the date 24 hours before the actual date.

I hope to see some major coverage of this event in the media. Pretty cool thinking about a bitcoin being worth as much or more than a 1 oz. gold coin. For me, the next milestone will be when a bitcoin is worth a 10 oz. bar of gold. I think I just might buy one for decoration.
The day that happens, I'm buying a 100oz gold bar, and stamping a private key into it as a physical wallet.

If we get 100 participants, you basically get the value of 1 oz of gold as a price!

Hi people,
I have a cool idea: let us guess when 1 BTC equals 1 oz of Gold !!
I open a BTC address and people can send their bets to it by using this format:
ticket price + date in Satoshis
Ticket price is 10 mBTC, so a guess for the 3th of januari 2014 would look like this:
0.01140103 BTC
Every ticket will be added to the jackpot !!
CURRENT PRIZES:
FIRST PLACE: 70 mBTC !!!
SECOND PLACE: 4.64450 mBTC
THIRD PLACE: 2.32225 mBTC
RULES:
Did you read the rules and accept them? Send your guesses to this address: 1Ge7zgS2H6QmxG7m78rgAKsVbfn92nse3G

§1 Everyone can post guesses. You guess the date in GMT and 1 date can be claimed by only 1 bitcoin address. I will keep a list here.
If a second user/address claims the same date/ammount, this guess will be refunded (minus transaction costs).
§2 You can not guess the "parity date" as the current date or a day in the next 2 weeks (so 14 days total).
For example: When the current GMT date is 2013-11-01 you can not guess/claim 2013-11-01, 2013-11-02, ..., 2013-11-13 and 2013-11-14.
These invalid guesses will also be refunded (minus transaction costs)
§3 We use the USD price on bitcoinaverage.com price (not the global average in USD)
More precisely: the 1min close on BTCaverage should have been at least equal or above the spot gold price at a certain moment in that minute.
We use these charts:
BTC-price: https://api.bitcoinaverage.com/history/USD/per_minute_24h_sliding_window.csv
Gold-price: http://goldprice.org/NewCharts/gold/images/gold_1d_b_o_l_USD.png?0.07548413891345263
§4In case bitcoinaverage.com is not available, we use the bitstamp-price.
In case Bitstamp is not available, we use the BTC-e price.
In case goldprice.org is down, we use xe.com
§5 We use GMT: http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time/scripts/clock-8/runner.php?tz=gmt
§6 The winner (the one who was closest to the actual date) wins all the tickets. If the winning date is at an equal "distance" of 2 guesses, the jackpot will be split amoung them.
The person on the second place wins 50% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
The person on the thrid place wins 25% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
If the jackpot for the first place was split, the person on the third place will receive 75% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
If there is an ex aeqo for the second place, they will both receive 37.5% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
I keep the remaining 25% of the mBTC paid for the guesses.
§7 Send funds from an address you control (you can sign with it) because the winner will receive his prize on the sending address.
If a second user/address claims the same date/ammount, this guess will be refunded (minus transaction costs).
§2 You can not guess the "parity date" as the current date or a day in the next 2 weeks (so 14 days total).
For example: When the current GMT date is 2013-11-01 you can not guess/claim 2013-11-01, 2013-11-02, ..., 2013-11-13 and 2013-11-14.
