Kluge I do really wonder who you are in real life, you always sound very intelligent. A finance broker? A millionaire? A bitcoin millionaire? A guy with a PhD in economics? A guy who owns his own big business? A big CEO or international manager? I don't know. Maybe youre just an average joe type guy but I doubt it.
Cheesy I'm an unemployable, near-penniless high school graduate with a work history of failed startups and contract work for NFPs. Seriously, I can't even get a job as a cashier at Dollar General, so all you get from me is that "minimum wage snark" but without even the minimum wage job.

U also donated minimum 50btc to this forum at some point in ur life. And u don't remember that?

it was probably the time when btc was practically worthless Smiley .

He donated 10-49 BTC actually Micro. If he donated 50 or more he would have the VIP status instead of Donator.

Not terribly imaginative, but each level could reduce house edge by .01% nominally. -Or .005%.

House edge can be only reduced individually through "rake back" . So u get that % of wagered back to ur account. Not a bad idea but it would  some coding.
Couldn't a user's level changing just trigger a check to re-calculate which number the user needs to roll under or over? Idunno how the formula looks now, but I'd guess you'd just want the server to add to the house edge multiplier variable (.99 if user wins on rolling under) .0001*UserLevel. -So if the player's level 8, say, the server'd calculate house edge for the user as .99+(.0001*8 ), where house edge is then .92% and the user needs to roll under 49.54 instead of 49.5 (if level 0) to win.


this is where i am stumped...how are these pseudo-random games effectively calibrated? tia! :\
It's just a random roll with one numerical outcome. It'd just be modifying which final numbers are considered a win or loss by the server. It'd be trickier to implement this on an impure casino with hundreds of rigged non-numerical outcomes. -Like you know how you frequently might get two 7's and then an off-center 7 on a slot machine? You weren't actually close to winning the jackpot, but it's rigged to look that way and's multitudes more likely to have two 7's and an off-center 7 than three centered 7s even though it should only be, at most, 2x more likely.


the way i understand it in a Nevada slot machine by law the result is generated purely on timing of when the button is pushed whereas PD relies on a combination of generated hashes...major fundamental difference and is exploitable imo! :\
Aww, gee, I'd die in a B&M casino. I've never heard of one that sounds better than going to a Chuck E. Cheese with alcohol (though Chuck E. Cheese would be dramatically more tolerable if they served the parents alcohol...). I doubt our beloved impure BTC-taking casinos follow any NV standards, though.


I'm not implying the casinos actually follow the laws to the t ...just the idea of fairness based on timing vs. some elaborate scheme of combining hashes that can be manipulated to suit the houses needs! :\

Actually in practice this would be quite simple. It's just basic arithmetic with variables, then crediting the BTC back to the user's account.

Im curious. How does it work?

Wouldn't be too difficult, just declare a variable called rake_back and assign it's value to bet_amount / 20000 (for 0.005% per level rakeback) and then * level. Then just add rake_back to whatever the user's balance is in the database after the bet.

Instead, cant you just raise the payout by a little?

I'm pondering the removal of the faucet more seriously now, the cost of it has significantly decreased but the incredible amount of support emails that center around the faucet itself or amounts under 0.0005 from faucet bettors along with a much larger userbase has decreased the quality of the support we can offer severely. Many argue that it must be removed as it lowers the quality of the chat and community as well.

What are the thoughts of everyone and if faucet is removed what should levels be used for?

Thanks

Truthfully I agree with you.

Not terribly imaginative, but each level could reduce house edge by .01% nominally. -Or .005%. The affiliate program could easily put a high-level player with a rake-back from the affiliate he signed up under - especially if he plays with high odds (and thus would probably have much, much more in total bets from which aff cut's calculated) - could give the player a significant edge over the house.

Alternately, maybe each level gives a player an entry into a daily or weekly raffle so long as they bet at least once during the week where PD creates maybe a 1BTC daily prize. This might even be profitable for PD.
