who could know the server feed? no one? IMHO it should be discussed if it is provably fair only for the player? but how about the investors? is JD provably fair for the investors?
This has been discussed lots of times before. I have access to the server, and can see the server seeds. That would allow me to cheat. I've seen it suggested several times that I'm nakowa, for instance. I don't know of a way to make the game provably fair for investors, but would be interested to find one.
For one thing it would put an end to emails threatening to expose me, like this one that came today:

Dear dooglus,
I noticed that you are a genius. Since you have database access to secret keys, you can predict the future outcome of dice rolls. For example, you dooglus (site owner), can create a "whale" account. Then login to your site's database, and find the secret key for "whale" account, AND then use this secret key to predict future dice rolls!
So... you are basically stealing money from investors by playing with your own money, and winning as the "big whale".
Of course, regular players cannot predict dice rolls, because they don't know the secret key. You however, know the secret key of any account in real-time!
I know, you are making a lot of money doing this, and I don't mind that... However I also want a littlebit money for discovering this loophole that you are using. Keep in mind, that I have NOT told this to anyone!
I offer you this:
Send me 400 bit coins to this address: 12xV47fNBVdjPtRSghgCAU7tFzQ6cYCuvp
AND I will keep my mouth shut, you have my promise. I admire you, and I will never break my word. How can you trust me? Well, you can't... But you have more promise, and I will respect you. This is a one time payment. I will never keep asking you for more money!
If I don't receive this payment ASAP (I will give you a 24 hour deadline). Then I will release this information to the general public, and all of the investors will pull out their money from your site! Be it in your chat room, on bitcoin forum etc... everywhere!
Of course, I am aware of the following actions that you may take: 1. You may ignore me, and will use the next 24 hours to steal as much money as you can, before I release this information to the public
OR
You can comply with me, by sending me 400 bit coins, and I will keep my mouth shut. By sending me the 400 bit coins, I will let you run your site a lot longer, and you will be able to make a lot more money!
I am actually very proud for discovering how you are doing this, and I want to get rewarded. Please think, and don't be greedy! Be smart. I will keep my silence. I promise!
Sincerely,
Your admirer
My favourite bit was "How can you trust me? Well, you can't..."
