no you won't answer because you are not registered and you are operating an illegal scam site using so called "investments" ....look up the laws..then bump thread again !  Wink     1o1!

The site doesn't really offer "investments" and it doesn't really have any "dice". The whole thing is based on a big fat lie.

I'd put money on BBmodBB being Ownsley... aka that guy who was trolling Doge-dice and several other sites.

I wouldn't put to much though and effort into responding to him. (Anyone, not just doog)

What am I missing

sarcasm mixed into trollbait... careful, may be deadly  Grin

Okay...
I thought that he was saying this is lie so they wouldn't have to have legal investment permissions etc.
Or that this site turned out to be scam and won't need investment permission because of that.

So is this illegal then?
I have no idea about these legal thing so that is why I am asking.

It's pretty simple how it works: you get your fair share of every win and loss on the site, in proportion to the size of your contribution to the bankroll.

Thank you. I think the missing piece for me was how much my share of bankroll changed.

Nope. I never divested and was not charged any commission yet. My total == current.

Could it be what NLNico is saying? That I got a larger share of losses and a smaller share of gains? Or could other investors divesting/reinvesting somehow affect my share of profits? I'm just trying to wrap my head around it but I guess I'm missing some important details on how the gains and losses are distributed to investors. I'm re-reading https://dicebitco.in/about/investments now.

It's pretty simple how it works: you get your fair share of every win and loss on the site, in proportion to the size of your contribution to the bankroll.

So yes, it's almost certainly what NLNico is saying, but also this:

I'm often invested. My balance is 0 most of the time.

When I want to play, I divest "ALL", play, then invest "ALL".

I'm 10 BTC up on my account from playing, so the site is 10 BTC down from my play. My investment wasn't hit by any of that 10 BTC loss, because I wasn't invested for it.

Each time I divest, win, reinvest, your share of the bankroll is temporarily higher while I win from you. Then I reinvest, diluting your share a little.

Of course, when I lose, your share of the site's profits from that loss are larger than usual too, because I'm divested while I lose.

People investing and divesting are constantly changing your percentage share of the bankroll. This makes it next to impossible to work out what your investment gains or losses should be at any point in time, although you can get a rough idea by looking at how the site profit and total investment has changed over time:

Imagine at first:

Bankroll = 100 BTC, you have 10 BTC which is 10% of total. Now investors lose 10 BTC, so you lose 10% of that = 1 BTC.

Now:

Bankroll = 4000 BTC, you have 9 BTC which is (only) 0.225% of total. Now investors gain 30 BTC, so you win 0.225% of that = 0.0675 BTC.

Site is up 20 BTC. You are down 0.9325 BTC.

(just an example, obviously)

Thank you for spelling it out. That's what the site examples show too. It was just counter-intuitive to me for some reason. Early investment == high risk, could have easily gone the other way.

I'm now ~0.1% down, so I need the site to gain ~0.1% on its bankroll, i.e. another ~4 BTC to break even.

dooglus you think I should invest 1.5btc here?

also can you loan me 52 btc so I can make as much as commission as you?   JK

I don't know whether you should invest or not. I don't even know if I should invest there.

And commission isn't something you make - it's something you pay to the site.

This is exactly the reason why I divested. Because of the early swings I was in the negative and in the meanwhile hundreds/thousands of btc's have been invested, to make up my loss it will take months.

or it can take a few rolls... Smiley

As the 18th person to invest with plenty (>100*) DIVEST -> PLAY -> INVEST dances in between this is exactly (different number ofc) what happened to me. The amount you as an investor risk was also changed over time from 2% over 1% to now .5%. So there are several factors that can make your "current profit" or even your "total profit" negative even though the site as a whole is up.

I guess it's pretty obvious to all that I'm not timmy. timmy doesn't seem to understand provable fairness...

That's the conspiracy. You pretend to be an illiterate gambling addict to ruin PD Smiley

Now back on topic: with the player loss/profit removed from display, and site profit equal to player profit * -1 (if I understand the latest changes correctly) I though it would be easier to figure out what's going on. But now I'm as confused as ever. I invested at the very beginning and my profit is still negative. However the site is showing up by 12 BTC. What does that mean?

Click 'invest (new)' at the top of the page. It shows your total profit. Is that positive?

Nope. I never divested and was not charged any commission yet. My total == current.

Could it be what NLNico is saying? That I got a larger share of losses and a smaller share of gains? Or could other investors divesting/reinvesting somehow affect my share of profits? I'm just trying to wrap my head around it but I guess I'm missing some important details on how the gains and losses are distributed to investors.
