BitDefender has identified the site as containing malware.
My AV blocked me from accessing the site.

Proceed at your own risk.   Cool



The operator is accused of scamming $127.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11874419



Confirming that as OP said the operator is dishonest, shady and a liar.

Thanks for the info about the malware on this weird site. Regarding the issue on its operator (was kayenpal before), this new alt (ralobot) said that kayenpal is only one of  his advertisers for his site (I do not believe it Smiley )

@ndnhc, the method of choosing the "boss" hasn't been declared,


The site lacks information on how the boss is picked and also what the payout on win is.

so until then the game is negative edge to players at 1.8x.

No, you don't understand. I am saying it is 0% edge to the player because the boss is NOT the house at the moment. It was 1JUVegNWquDxHJN37CHPp6V7rLTnaDcgmS (could be the house or a player. idk) and now me.


All I am stating is house edge was 0%. Not 10%. Not 20%.
My answer to that would be that he s trying to keep up the heat down as low as possible, to keep the big fish coming, and like a ponzi , run away when a big deposit is recieved. At any rate, care to share how much you have recieved from the Boss promo?
And have a look at vervoliman's post as well.

In all this discussion one fact seems to have been lost, they have no
1) Maximum bet limit
2) Cold storage wallet, hot wallet has only 0.01 which I think is not a good sign considering the bet limit.
And some more facts, owner himself is confused about house edge , I don't see how he is trying to money off it or if he is going to scam and run when he gets a big deposit like 0.05+ .
@ndnhc, the method of choosing the "boss" hasn't been declared, so until then the game is negative edge to players at 1.8x. And the reason to make it at 2x seems that, owner is trying to make it look as least shady as possible for making a big scam. Lastly , consider the post from DannyHamilton in shorena's post.



the full answer will be on our thread , and all i want is to see what players want , but all i get is hate and useless comments (mostly) anyways thank you .  Smiley

Do not play on ralobot

There are three giant red flags:

  • Their provably fair system is completely vulnerable. A miner has complete control of what timestamp it uses and routinely generates fake ones, as the nonce is not big enough. They a miner just needs to only pick timestamps that would make them win, and not propagate the transactions. Or alternatively this vulnerability against players if ralobot control hash power by only putting losing transactions in a block. Both of these cost nothing to do.
  • They use a self-moderated thread, like other scammy sites like gawminer, pocketrocketcasino and fortunejack to hide what customers are really saying
  • Running with 0 house edge is not viable unless your plants involve some sort of scamming. No one is going to expose themselves to unlimited risk for no return. Right now they have a negative house edge, which means they have unlimited risk and are playing players to pay. Either idiots or incompetence

Conclusion is that it must be avoided at all costs.




intersting Comment  Tongue !!   anyways for some members above i say thank you very much for supporting ralobot and our site is currently on maintenance. please be patient

We will update our thread after max 2 hours.


i'm still intersted to get more replies about the house edge should we change it back to x1.8 as we are paying 20% to the boss Smiley , and thank you all again .

Conventional definition of house edge is “the ratio of all money lost by players to the total money they wagered.” Unless you consider players individually, the house edge in the previous set up was indeed 0%.

wizardofodds seem to disagree with you.

The house edge is defined as the ratio of the average loss to the initial bet. The house edge is not the ratio of money lost to total money wagered.

No, both are the same. (you are ignoring the role of "boss" while taking into account the average loss)

Case scenario.
Players have say 10% chance of becoming a boss and getting refund. 45% to win and 45% to lose.

Player makes 100 bets.
45 wins. 36 profit.
45 loss. 45 loss.
10 boss. Expected profit is 9. (20%*10*10*0.45)


Or simply, the EV of the player and the EV of the house adds up to zero. In this case, the house has no advantage, so the player has no advantage either. (when the payout was 1.8x)



tl;dr when the payout was 1.8x, the house edge was 0%.
If the payout is made to 2x and the house also gives 20% of lost bets to the boss, the house edge would be -10% and the player's EV would be +10%.

Edit: EV seems to be 10% to the players now  Shocked



I said high instead of 20% because of self-moderated thread.

It is either 10% if you go by shorena's interpretation, or 0% if you go by mine (i.e. house edge is EV of the house).

No I dont escrow anymore.
They had problems with the previous version of the site and deleted all threads and posts.
Is there any working 'copy' of Bitcointalk to find the old topics?

The house is not the boss at the moment (I am), so the house does not have any advantage at the moment.



Ralobot.com should consider to revert it back to 1.8x instead. At the moment, the players have a high positive EV.
The site lacks information on how the boss is picked and also what the payout on win is.


..show that the house edge is 20%

Even as per that interpretation the HE is 10%. Wink
OP stated 1.8x payout on win and also explained the boss feature (though not how it was won), so I don't think any misstatement was involved. He shouldn't have deleted your posts though.

Edit : The word "dodgy" & "Owner" are both Wrong. (Please show some respect).

But thank you.

So you do not own the site? What is your role with them?

I think he mean 0% house edge, because 20% go for boss (last winner)

if you sum 1,8x + 0,2 from boss winning, you have the full 2x, with a 50-50 chance... so it's a "0 house edge" at the end for users
-snip-

Yes, the "big boss" does not show on the site. It is also not clear how the big boss is picked. It does not mean there is no house edge though, see here -> http://wizardofodds.com/gambling/house-edge/

On a 50:50 chance a 0% house edge would pay 2x on win.

-snip-
Sens i replied to you about the house edge my friend "its now x2 So their is no house edge) i see that i'm done, Good luck.

You did not update the OP in your thread or your (or the owner did not) site.

The most odd thing IMHO is that this thread here is more informative than the thread for the game itself. I think you Ralobot.com should delete less posts and answer them as best as you can.

Edit: While we are here, I would still like to hear your solution to the possible miner attack on your game. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/urgent-question-to-prevent-cheating-1207556

I will leave this quote for those that do not want to read the thread.

Unless you changed the rules of your "game", there is no fair way to use confirmation time to determine a "winner".

There is NO exploit im here asking about the transaction confirmation time
- snip -

Any solo miner or mining pool operator can choose an odd or even timestamp in the blocks they solve if they want.  They can create their own transaction and confirm it in their own block.  That way they will always know if the timestamp will be odd or even when they create the transaction.
