Would be nice if a bounty can have a guaranteed validity period, e.g. I could place a bounty and promise that it would be valid for 6 months, after which point I would automatically be refunded.  I'm not sure if there's a way to enforce this in Bitcoin script... nLockTime comes to mind, but I'm not sure exactly how it would be done.  Thoughts?

There are some weird requests for jobs in the last time I was here.
Pray to the spaghetti monster? And wearing a doggy costume? Are these for real. I think not so don't apply for those one, wow!
You most likely won't get your bounty.

Mixan, those bounties are for real... And will be paid if completed. I may even sweeten the pot at some point.
I removed the Dogg one, but Boba Fett is still up.

Thanks for all the feedback.

I hope to see the site used for some creative bounties.
I'm focussed on tweaking some enhancements right now (have not been promoting it much)

The next "release" planned would enable some arbitration/voting features... So one doesn't have to approve their own bounty, but could 'crowdsource' dispute arbitration (sort of like a jury). Arbitrators would be compensated a small fee for their time.
Dispute resolution, trust, & preventing collusion is essential for the site to work on its own.

Hopefully, it will grow organically as that happens... And (since its bitcoin-only), perhaps even turn some folks onto bitcoin.

Alwin- on your question. "Recovery" is just a chill out period that happens after a dispute... So refunds can be taken without a "claim-troll" causing problems. It's possible this could shrink or go away, if it seems a nuisance or unnecessary.

Awards are permitted if a claim is undisputed or found valid.
We use multisig, so the bounty creator always needs to trigger the award(with their passphrase).

So any bounty can be in one of the following statuses (depending the path it takes):
Open
Claimed
Disputed
Unpaid
Awarded
Recovery

The review periods set time between these statuses.
E.g. I'd create a bounty 'tweet this' with a short review period, because its easy to verify. I'd create a bounty 'Write a short story about Chtulu' with longer period... To allow time to read, verify terms were met.

There is no doubt that this is a good website but under the recent activities what do you mean by recovery and awarded.

Lol I think I will go for this one. It is made for me.

Code:
You will post a YouTube video, no less than 1 minute long.

You must be wearing a Dogg costume, which must include the hair(excellent grease-back bleach uber-mullet) + sunglasses + leather.

In the video, Dogg (clarifying "I am Dogg the Bounty Hunter") must sit down in front of a computer and click through WillPayCoin.com... explaining it's benefits and recommending it's use. Humor is welcome.

* By claiming this bounty, you permit WillPayCoin to copy/link/embed/share your video for promotional purposes.

Wow intereresting site.

Some bounties are weird:

https://www.willpaycoin.com/bounty/8
US Supreme Court has ruled that Government meetings may begin with prayer. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/supreme-court-upholds-legislative-prayer-at-council-meetings/2014/05/05/dc142ede-cf9d-11e3-b812-0c92213941f4_story.html If your local City Council opens with prayer, you may claim this bounty by volunteering to pray. You shall give a secular, agnostic, athiest statement... Or pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster as an exercise of the 1st Amendment. To claim bounty, you must link to the video of your prayer. PS: If for some reason your City Council denies you due to religious beliefs... well, lawyer up and you've got yourself a 1st Amendment lawsuit!

And weird is good Wink

P.S. You should make your URL's, SEF.

I must say the site looks very fresh, I really like the theme and the colors and really loved the video and the way it popped up and explained everything in a very smart way. I was hoping to catch some bounties like twitter stuff but they were already claimed by someone else. Oh well, I'll keep an eye out and hopefully will be able to find some new ones. Great work! and good luck to your with your site.

Picture this: Francisco de Quevedo.
Good work, I replicated the initial shoutout efforts on twitter, even for my half English half Spanish follower pool, the words are kinda universal.   Bounties... and it's equivalent in Spanish, "recompensa".

So see you in social networks, too!

as the site grows eventually with a lot of differentiated bounties, you might want to induce a classification system somehow by hashtags, and so letting your followers know about the precise kind of activity or field the bounty is given at. Hey, it's too early to plan, but hopefully this works for inspiration.

Good idea for a service! This could be a very busy site when picked up by the community and promoted right !
