mdbtc. jimdo. com is a new weekly bitcoin lottery. For just 10.000 satoshi you buy one ticket.
Please your opinion of this site, and of course please join

here is my opinion and i am sorry if it is harsh.

you are a newbie rank and you are advertising a website that nobody has heard before.
lotteries never had any good luck here for attracting that much gamblers to themselves because it is hard to prove they are picking the winner fair and square.
the link mdbtc[dot]jimdo[dot]com seems to be a free domain and probably free everything else which shows an unprofessional thing to do.
so in a competitive market of all these casinos,... nobody is going to trust a website that has been created for free and especially in a lottery niche.

Not provably fair.

Ideally, you could generate a number based on the hash of the first block that is added to the blockchain after you start the draw. This would mean a delay of only around 10 minutes between starting the draw and choosing a provably fair winner.

If you wanted something faster, you could create a seed, and make a hash of the seed publicly available. Then you could make whoever has the highest value of hash(seed+transaction hash) win the lottery.

Either way, it is broken in its current format as you can just choose the winner yourself.

If this is true do you know when more information about this lottery is coming out? It would be a fun think to be able to win Bitcoins like that, this would also make Bitcoin users active again.

Though the site seems good, I'd say the main problem is legitimacy. What proves anyone you don't just buy the winning ticket yourself every time? Or invent a winner everytime? .

I think your site looks good though it needs a little more fix to make it look more of a "lottery" feel.
I'm still deciding whether to join or not. There's still a week for me to decide, I'll just bookmark this and check back again on Friday and see how many people have joined.

I checked your site and it seems okay. Just some suggestion though, you could probably place some non-offensive ads on the sides since they have considerably enough space for banner ads so you can get profit for every visit. I see though that you have a hit counter on the home page. I'll probably join the lottery. Probably.
