Can I add daily bets on BitBet for the probability of someone winning 3500% on PROBIWON?

Isn't it a bad idea to have something be able to be bet on that the person betting can influence? For example some one could place a huge bet that someone will hit the 3500% and then just flood probiwon with 0.01 bets.

darn... *grumble* stupid geeks *grumble* can't keep their mouths shut!

It is not clear why this is happening. The fact that there is multiplication of 1.1 * 100. How from this multiplication system can take an inaccurate answer? I do not understand.

0.1 can't be expressed exactly as a simple binary number. Like one-third in decimal (which is exactly 0.1 in base 3). So when you store 1.1 as a float in any language, it actually uses something like 1.10000001, which is as close as you can get.

But it is not critical, we will add rounding.

Major kudos to you, this game is an awesome way of loos^H^H^Hgambling Smiley

Although, maybe a little rounding is in order?

110.00000000000001%
You won 1.10 BTC
Your bet 1 BTC

Heh

This game? http://probiwon.com/site/index/game/0de06f02-27c4-11e0-b63c-6f09a48f663d

It seems, it is bug in javascript code on the client side, its does not affect calculations of won.

We will fix it. Thank you!

Heh, ok, my (browser's) bad then Smiley

A quick question. Could you show some pseudocode of how you handle the bets? Does the acceptor plays any role in the odds?

After creation of a new addresses pair (your address + acceptor address) site generates random secret, shows sha256(secret) to you and waits for your bet. After bet is accepted and game played new random secret generated immediately and site waits bet again.

What are the odds of each individual ring?

Each ring of various diameters and area, respectively, the different probability of shooting to them.
Each ring has a width 0.05 of a target radius. (But 1500% ring and 3500% circle has radius and width 0.025 each.)

My calculations of probability for each ring (from center):

0.0019634954 <- 3500%
0.0058904862 <- 1500%
0.0235619449
0.0392699082
0.0549778714
0.0706858347
0.086393798
0.1021017612
0.1178097245
0.1335176878 <- 65%
0.149225651 <- 50%

The target was changed!

100% gain ring replaced by 110% and also changed other rings to provide same return 94%

For games played earlier probiwon.com now did not shows arrow in the results of shooting because target was changed. Also some users could lose cookies that store his addresses - sorry, please enter your address again.

Of course! Smiley

When we did the last test before opening the site, we threw in a row 1500% and 3500%

Every saint has a past. Every sinner has a future.
It looks and works nice, but my luck is bad! Max bet and off the board! Smiley

I had more luck - bet 0.90 and got 13.50 back!

I made out well too, you got your 5 btc back. Thanks again!

Hah, thanks. If we keep on doing this we may become millionaires - or homeless. Smiley

I sent  0.5 to the acceptor address and all worked fine, other than only getting back 65% lol.

I then sent another 0.5 to the same acceptor address and nothing has happened since. I may have messed it up because I didn't refresh the web page and click the OK next to the "Player's address" box again. However you also say that the site doesn't even need to be open for it to work, so maybe the problem is elsewhere. It's been 3 confirmations since I sent the second 0.5 and the first one happened quite quickly which makes me think that waiting longer isn't going to do much.

You can go to http://probiwon.com/ and it will show your last game.
Also you can copy link from right top and copy it here to show result, if there is something goes wrong you think.

Strength in numbers
I like how fast the throw happens. I'm curious about how it works. Do you count a fixed number of seconds from the time you see the transaction show up to avoid double spends? Could this number be displayed as a countdown? Or are you throwing as soon as you first see the tx?
