Topic: [POLL] What would get you to play NastyKeno? - page 2. (Read 2193 times)
Draws take too long to be picked. If the shorten the time ill start using the site again.
I navigated through this thread in games and rounds section and exact this is the main reason I avoided it to play. Weekly distribution is saddest point of this game. Distribution should occur more frequent which will encourage the players to come and play on it.
right I have mentioned this above, gamblers hate to wait for result, especially if you need to wait for 1 week
Ognasy, if you have some time please check on this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hit-the-block-players-edge-betting-1029243.
The concept of that game is almost like ognasty keno, difference is that it is based on the TX ID from the sender to the corespondent address. The game was working at first but it has stopped working now. Plus if you make some website to support some animations for this then it will gain much more attention than the current game
The website can surely be better. 
One think I don't understand is this part:
Wait for the next weekly NastyFans distribution (Fridays) and see if you predicted correctly.
The game is based on the TX ID for the weekly distribution of the nasty mining pool, the address of 1NastyBTCcxbAQQ22kEijbXqgyBPRujftL is the payout address for the pool and since it is distributed weekly it makes the game less favorable as people need to wait for a whole week just to know the result
It is of course connected to the p2pool share chain. The goal for us was to build upon the back of p2pool, not try and steal the idea. The address we're using for our custom payout system is 1NastyBTCcxbAQQ22kEijbXqgyBPRujftL and should be independently verifiable as mining on the p2pool share chain.

This is the first time I have seen that thread mainly because I don't go to games and rounds section too often. I like the blockchain hash idea, it's in-fact completely 100% provably fair as block hash cannot be predicted or altered.

If you could make the game into the instantly mode, then this could boost the popularity of the game but not enough to lure in more players. You need to pack it with some animations perhaps on your website.
Example of luckyb.it . The site is only about sending your bet through wallet and get the result few seconds after that, but the twist is that there are some animations of ball falling in the site (pliinko style)
Ognasty keno isnt so much difference than luckyb.it . If there is a website to show some animations for the keno than your game could go head to head with luckyb.it
. Another plus point of having website is that you can move the thread to gambling to gain some attention

I wouldn't have an issue with setting up an address for instant predictions though, where you could see immediately if you won, and payouts could be processed a few times per day (or whenever you want if you PM to "hit the magic button" that processes payouts).
You make a good point about luckyb.it having cool animations and such. NastyKeno is a much more simple approach, and I think there are those who appreciate a less flashy option. It is something for us to consider though as the platform is developed. The site was built using basic cross-platform DHTML scripts, which are intended to be lightning fast and widely compatible. I will look into what style enhancements might be possible with this development type.
Good idea for the bolded part but you will need someone to constantly standby just to process the request whenever there is someone who request the payout.
You are right that someone may like the less flashy option. Not saying that you need a flashy animations but still something to catch up the attention of the players is something to add to the game. Basically sending bets from wallet , veryfing the result manually through blockchain is not something that a gambler wants to do . So my point is providing some simple animations on site that will tell you about the result will be good for the starting point
Atleast the nastyfans got it own community, shouldnt be hard for you to start up a new game and gather some attention after you develop the platform

Tl;dr : it is never a nice thing to wait just to know a result
This is valuable feedback. The idea of tying in the NastyFans weekly distribution was to bring a bit of fun and awareness to the weekly distributions. I can see why you would want an immediate result though.
Would you consider playing again if there was an address where you could make "instant" predictions and as soon as your TX was included in a block you could see if you were correct? Would daily payouts be frequent enough?

The thing is not that people dont love free credits to play and win, it is just that not everyone aware of this games since not everyone tend to look in the games and rounds section.
Best thing for you to do is to move the thread into gambling section to gather more attention since you now have a website to get more attention to the game. Another thing is faster round is needed, I was in the first round and I felt that the round was too long that is why I decided not to participate in another round again despite free credits is given
