I read the title, and then had to read it again before I finally caught on that someone was crazy enough to do something like this.

I just could see in the headlines "Bitcoin causes Mice animal abuse"

Anyways the issue I see here aside from the quality is proving whether this is fair and actually streamed live. Because like the poster a few replies has stated, its very difficult to prove whether its recorded in the past and played "live" or is it actually live.

Maybe you can have on the monitor some actual BTC transaction hashes on the same screen as the races to prove its indeed live.

As long those mice arent in danger or in good shape then i dont see for it to be abusive.Its being used on gambling purposes but this leaves no harm on said animals.
About the recording thing i do agree with your idea about BTC transaction because this will really give out confidence on betting because pre-recorded events is always be on questioned.

I've got to say, this is a pretty cool idea and I've never even thought about something like this. I'm not sure about one thing. People will play bets depending on their luck? I mean how can you possibly know why rat will win the race if they are all the same and anyone could do it? Are there any statistics, any information about the mices? Or is it completely randomly and based on luck?

This is one the crazies, yet the coolest stuff I've ever seen in the Gambling section Grin

I will wait to made a "Mice form" pages available before each race and I will rest it for sure.

What? How would I ensure that the race is actually being live telecast? It may always be a recorded one, where results are already known to you. How this type of a setup be provably fair?

Ok so we tell you Mice racing live and that's your first reaction? You must be fun at parties Tongue

Nevertheless the concern is real and it is indeed something that could be triggered in several ways.
Best would be for OP to implant a live chat during the race, where people could ask you to write a word on a paper then you show paper on the camera and it would prove it's live recording.

We do have plans to give them all identities and their own statistics pages and profiles, but that would take some time

But this is absolutely necessary to do. Gamblers, especially those who prefer sports betting, are crazy about doing at least a little research on the team/player they are going to bet on.

Also I agree with other posters regarding the video quality, it definitely should be better. Another important thing imo is finding a way of showing to gamblers that the race is taking place in real time.

I would say the mice does look huge and it is pretty funny and entertaining to watch when they are running in the tunnel, but the waiting time to start a new round does take quite a while and I guess maybe it does requires a lot of time for the staff to catch the mice back and allocate them into a different slot for the next round.

I can't remember seeing this thread ever before and why is this not a more popular thread? I do read that animal rights concerns already brought up and I must say that while it can probably never be made real or proper, from the videos it does not seem like they are leading a tortured life. Hopefully they are always kept fed and happy. Anyway the world forces dogs and horses to run every day so it is not so much different for mice.

More to the point, organise something like a proper event for us gamblers, so we can participate more too. The history of the mouse and caretakers and things like that. Like horses too you can learn a lot about their style and breed and way they are groomed etc.

Nice thread, will keep track:)

Thanks for the positive feedback. We have no reason to not keep them fed and happy.

Could you elaborate on the "proper event" suggestion?

We have a lot planned for identifying each of them and providing them with profile pages, stats, etc. but introducing that would require us to gather much more data to ensure that we can provide fair and accurate odds and statistics.

Haven't seen fresh idea in a while Grin

I just wonder if each mice have it's profile with information, such as :
1. Race history
2. Common info (species, genus, etc.)
2. Specification (weight, height, etc.)

How can you make sure that list would be legit? There would be practically no means of verifying it. Imagine, OP listing out all the winner mice as the losers and the other way around, then people would just blindly bet on the winning mice considering the given information is true. That would be cheating. Btw it's just a mice run and human Olympics.

And also it would really be hassle to list out those very small details. Its important but as said how can we verify it if those info given are legit ones.? Its not relevant actually.

Well, if they really want to make that happen on blockchain using provable fairness mechanism, they can! For instance, every mice is categorized with a unique bitcoin address and whenever that mic wins a race, some token amount of money is sent to that address. Ideally, the bitcoin with the high balance is an obvious winner more times.

Good that you have uploaded a demo of the game. Another suggestion would be adding a high-quality camera inside the mice racing chamber. Right now, it seems like the race is been shot using a CCTV and doesn't really give that high quality. There is a constant lag in the broadcast as well. This is a complicated project man. i hope it pays back.

This is what i have observed too on the video which is indeed on poor quality or been taking out not so clear.It would be better if it shows as you suggested. This isnt a complicated
project if it would be done or execute correctly with corresponding basic needed set-up.I dont see for it to be rigged the thing i do like to see is all 4 mice would run when the door opens like putting a food on the end
for them to run.Its quiet boring if 2-3 of them wont run and just stick out to their place.lol

We have some issues with the stream quality but are working on improvements and have ordered some new things. It may seem simple but with moving parts and live animals, it's never that straightforward. We had to ensure that the planning and manufacturing was as precise as possible to avoid any situations where the animals can be harmed.

Food in such environment does not make any difference, even with their favorite treats at the end of the track, they are more interested in the surroundings rather than the food. We're not able to force them to run so there's very little we can do. It's really just about letting them get used to it since it's still very new for them.

Whoa whoa whoa... Real mice racing, seriously? Lololol.

That's my reaction too. Grin

Well, we certainly don't want to be "just another dice site"

hehe , you do not look for easy ways , do you Wink

anything that has a fresh idea and good implementation should be a success
so far it is more of a novelty fun site rather than a legit betting platform, try to make sure that there is no way of accusing the site of rigging the races
and also find ways to accept different coins and promote the site simultaneously
after the test period, do some promotions and marketing ,hope you will find that elusive formula where people are both having fun and wagering coins
