Here's an update on why the site is currently down.

There was some unexpected server issues last night that caused a couple of the virtual machines to go offline.
This happens now and again and it's usually easy to just bring them back on. This can cause downtime from a few minutes to an hour.

I posted in the chat that the site would be down 30-40 minutes just to give some time to make sure everything was fine.

However while this was being done I found a critical bug.

I saw that profits from players losses were not being distributed to investments properly and that the total bankroll had increased when it shouldn't have.

Unfortunately I don't have much more detail at this time as I am still looking into the issue.

As soon as I find the problem and fix it the site will go live again and you can then withdraw all your balance or divest if you choose.

Hope to be back online within the next 12 hours.

Will post updates as soon as I have more information.

Calling out scams, one HYIP at a time...
How many episodes of "Dean wakes up, sees a player has won big and takes the site down" do I need to see before I'm worried that the site being about 300btc under EV for investors isn't just a fluke? Seriously, if people still have money invested they should be told why the site is being taken down for 24 hours.

Whats up with the site guys?

I don't think that want to say.

"Technical difficulties" is pretty vague.

Really? Dean and his band of merry degens think you are the anti-christ.

What, just because they call me senile and gave me crabs, genital warts, and maple syrup drippings?

I'm sure they love me really. Smiley

AKCoin manages to get the site in negative profit (-1.54 BTC) again. His personal profit on PRC in ~2 days is now +83.64 BTC! Nice!

Damn must be nice!

Too bad my investment shrunk a little Smiley Let's hope it turns around soon!

I lost the liqour money boys...
If someone can find a more fair online casino to gamble with I want to hear about it. Huge swings in profits over the last week; a rollercoaster for investors for sure. Even more so for the gamblers  Cool

Dean, I just found another bug on the website. Can we solve the bug bounty publicly? Tongue


EDIT: It might not be considered a bug. But anyways Dean has made it open after my email. So here it is .
 Usually when you type in a new client seed, then the nonce should reset to 0. But it does not happen on PRC. meaning if you type in a new client seed when you are at nonce 5, of the previous seed, then the new client seed starts from nonce 5.
This can create confusion for people verifying bets. On other sites, it usually resets, but again its not wrong if Dean programs it this way.
Just pointing it out.



actually, you wouldn't want the nonce to restart to 0 if you just update the client seed?  That is because the server seed doesn't change.  IF the server seed changed if you changed the client seed, then the nonce should be able to reset. as then you're guaranteed new random rolls.

If you were able to change the client seed but keep the server seed the same, AND reset the nonce, you could roll a few times on one seed, check the results, change the client seed 2x (once to a new one, then once to the old one) and the nonce would reset, and you would know the roll results?

i could have the provably fair stuff wrong tho
Correct, that would be a serious security issue.

Make 10 rolls with client seed "test". Change client seed to "test2" to reset nonce. Change back to "test" and know the next 10 rolls Smiley

In theory you could disallow the same client seed + server seed combination, but I think it's fine like this.

in theory you could, but that seems to be a lot of unnecessary storage work.  (you'd have to make sure that across all users that used combinations don't get used, in case someone has the same server hash/seed as someone else previously).  Better to just not reset nonce unless server seed is changed.

Now Finnile is doing anything he can to pretend he knows what he is talking about in order to get bitcoin for bug. Really finnile, this time you just looked like a fool. Maybe email site operators privately and sort it out that way. Stop trying to get cred on this forum. I wont repeat what these two guys said, because it is 100% correct.
