I am really sorry about that haitispaceagency, I'm sure you were going to win too. But it could have taken a few years at the rate we were going
fug i was going to win too i swear m8
This raffle was cancelled and bets refunded.
Well, no movement at all. I will be canceling this raffle soon and bets will be refunded. Speak up if you have bets placed and prefer that I place all remaining bets. The latter approach will almost certainly make you lose your bets but there is a chance you'll get the FPGAs, whereas the former one will give you back your bet but you can't win anything.
I'm giving this at least 8 hours before I pull the plug.

I have a really good felling I'm going to win this.
As in, all the bets so far are yours?
Well, best of luck and thank you for indulging us with your wagers!

Minimum number of bets to unlock the raffle lowered to half of what it was, now 50.
If at least half of that isn't covered at this week's end I'll either cancel the raffle and return the bets or, if the number of bets is above 12, place all needed bets myself to unlock the raffle to give bettors a fair chance of winning still.

No takers? Any issues or complaints?
Probably the main issue is how long is going to take to get 100 takers?
Why are you selling it anyway? 1 GHs should be giving you around $600 per month, no?
It is certainly going to take a long time if noone jumps in
I'm not selling it, I'm raffling it, and the main reason is to draw some attention to TAABL, which is my site, and more specifically to the raffle games.
Where did you get the $600 figure? Even with BTC price sky high it's about half of that.

thank you.
You are most welcome. Also, easter bump
thank you.
There is some information at http://taabl.net/howtoplay but the exact Pipe game details are lacking, sorry. In a nutshell you need to send from an address you can receive also, and once the raffle has a winner everyone receives 1 satoshi except for the winner that receives 2.
You can also see which transaction had the winning bid when the raffle is done, and from that assert which address belongs to the winner.

Weekend bump #1
bump for raffle start!
The BitPick is now live: http://taabl.net/pick?_=51557baa4d8b2039be6546e7
Lets try something different, shall we?
The Amazing Anonymous Bitcoin Lottery will be holding a new Pick Pipe style raffle, as an experiment. The prizes will be stacks of 5 FPGA miner boards, each doing 208~228 MHs and taking ~11W @ 12V, for a total of over 1GHs per stack.
These boards are clones of Ztex 1.15x, assembled under license. Ztex did not build these boards no they have any responsibility here. Shipping costs are included to most countries, but if you live in some exotic place known to be hard to ship to please contact us prior to entering the game so we can make sude we can ship at all.
There is guarantee other than the boards are working flawless when they reach you!
What you get if you win:
- The stack with 5 boards, having low profile heatsinks applied without fans
- The 120mm fan
- The power splitter that connects to a computer PSU molex connector to provide power to the 5 boards.
How the game works:
It's a simple TAABL Pick 4 game, with individual bets priced at 0.1 BTC. The game becomes active once100 50 bets are placed and from that point on every time a block is found the block hash is compared to the placed bets. To identify yourself as the winner you'll need to have control over the address from which you sent the coins, so shared web wallets are not going to work.
