That's not a problem, I've discovered a sympathic sportsbook. Unfortunately, since the events list is quite small, I won't be able to use it that much :/.

It is unfortunate that I have to announce that the competition will be cancelled.

The minimum amount of players was 35 and then moved down to 20 but checking the bet histories only 11 people have even placed a bet and a couple of them only once.

On top of that a couple of users have been editing posts and or posting winning bets after the events.

There were a couple of players who followed the rules and placed a number of bets and I will pm them to offer a consolation prize in the next couple of days.

Sorry again for this but it had to be done.

I'll offer a better promo in future.

Thanks

Quoted for reference.

Thank you to everyone that has joined in our competition !

Hope to see you in another promotion very soon ! Smiley

I've forgot to post the bet before the beginning of the event. Can I do it now or is it too late ?

Hi sorry but that would be too late as anyone could start cheating by doing that.

Why ? Since the best was made a lot before the start of the event ? I can show you a screenshot that it was my only bet made and that I'm not looking to hide losing bets.

To stop people who have been placing bets on every outcome and only posting their wins after the event or going back and editing posts.

Ok, I understand. I told that I can post a screenshot, proving that it is my only bet, but you're the boss.

I had moved the post to the Meta thread. Didn't want to be off-topic.

Since you have other means to keep in touch like Skype, it shouldn't be a problem. Smiley

Meta thread here : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/im-gianluca95-and-my-account-is-banned-for-spam-1476813



For 5 days, you should not use Gianluca95 or faince222 or any other accounts to post on any thread other than the thread appealing ban (including giving trust feedbacks), send personal messages in the bitcointalk forum.

You can still:
+ browse the forum and take note of bets/entries etc.
+ update spreadsheet
+ change signature so people will be aware of it
+ talk with anyone through anything outside the forum, even arrange someone else to post important stuff etc.

Disclaimer : This is as per my understanding of the rules.

Not sure what the rules are or why he was banned but I might need to get someone else to manage it or manage it myself.

Don't worry the though competition is still going on so you can post your bets as normal. Smiley
Gianluca already fits best for the job. The ban only lasts for a couple of days anyway so I think in the meantime you can manage this promotion while we wait for gianluca to come back.
I'm actually interested in joining this but unfortunately I know nothing about soccer so yea.

I think that is better that Gianluca continue to manage promotion because he organized it and he a good manager, also he invite me and i join because of him to compete here.. He really do his job very very well.. I am sorry coz they baned him but he will back for sure. So my advice to BetKing.io - dont find another guy.

I also found and registered to this competition by an invitation from Gianluca. I see his promotions and his great work  as a big advantage to whole sports betting section in this forum.

That isn't necessary. Everything will works fine at the same way. Users can PM me and I can speak with everyone. I have to use this account only for the next 5 days.

Hi

You probably got banned because you PM'd a lot of people?


You just broke another rule:  Shocked


25. Ban evasion (using or creating accounts while one of your accounts is banned) is not allowed.[e]

25. If you get banned (temporary or permanently) and create a new account to continue posting / sending PMs, it's considered ban evasion. The only exception is creating a thread in Meta about your ban.

You are risking a perma-ban. I would advise you to delete the posts now.


Edit: If I were you, I would open a thread in Meta requesting permission to post and personal message given that you have many things to manage.

Seems no one is interested in this competition?
There's not been a single bet posted in this thread.
Shall I just cancel it?
This is because your competition is almost the same as the directbet one and it has too much rules. The rule of the minium users bothers me and stops me from gambling, of course there is many interest, but with this rules no one is going to bother. My advice is to change the rules people have the feeling they can win and then gamblers will come. Also more betting options must be available.

There has to be some rules.
If I don't state minimum users then I'd probably get one person betting once in the whole competition or some way for some bad forum member to take advantage.

The minimum has been lowered to 20 which isn't really that many is it? The dice competition I'm running has had 80 players so far.

I currently only support football match betting which is the most popular type of betting.
I was using that to see what peoples interest is in sports betting. If I don't have much betting happening with the most popular type then adding other sports and markets won't help much.



I mean that the sport betting options that u have on soccer are very limited, only decide the winner.
Not who is going to score, half time, europa and champions league winner.

Yes agree. But as I mentioned that betting on the winner in soccer is the most popular bet type on any sportsbook. So if I wasn't seeing much action on that I don't see adding other options driving much traffic.

I will be adding these in future but while the volume is low other parts of the site unfortunately get more priority.
Yes, that is very logical. I think DirectBet.eu has dominated the bitcoin sportsbook market.
You can change that though by creating cool give aways and competitions like this. Also the advertising on bitcointalk is a smart move. How long is your site around now?

The site is over 3 years old. It's one of the most trusted Bitcoin gambling sites with 3760 Bitcoin invested in crowdfunded bankroll.
We only just added sports though.

please add over and under bet, both teams to score, etc in sport betting.
many options to bet is a good.
