I went to buy a card 7970(26.5), I bought 28 BTC.
So my balance should of been 1.5+3=4.5 BTC.
But I have 46 BTC. So I made 46-4.5=41.5 BTC

12.80X41.5=$531.2

I made $531.2 xD

yes that means my 58 Bitcoins finally arrived.
yes I payed someone 26.5 Bitcoins for a 7970

I had remaining 31.5 BTC. Yes I did spent 9 BTC
on a bet on satoshidice, dropping to 23 BTC and losing.
It was on 85% and for fun. I opened up my book address,
and double clicked an address.

What ever would be the outcome I would cash out the remaining balance.
Yes I loss, and then I opened up the Canadian exchange.
Then I clicked the deposit address on the site, and clicked ctrl+c
at least I thought I did.

And yes I then clicked ctrl+v, and yes I didn't carefully read over the address.
Yes this was incredibly stupid. Lesson learned, always double checked.
And don't do this 4am in the morning.

And yes, somehow I am incredibly happy to be doing bitcoin transactions
in my sleep, as the error really did pay off.

And yes I am over all amazed.


I should have 3.5 BTC, because the 28 I bought was to cover the 7970 (26.5 BTC)
But some how I have 46 BTC, because of multiple reasons. If your wondering
why I bought 28, even though the gpu costed 26.5. I decided to want a balance
of 5 BTC or so to play with far into the future.

1) During the buying process of the 7970, I decided to throw a bet of 0.01 on satoshidice
on a really low odds on the site. And to my amazement I won. I now had 7.9 Bitcoins or so.
I decided my luck wasn't over, and I placed this on 79% taking me to 10 bitcoins nearly.
Now I received my 28 for total of 38 BTC. And yes I got incrediblely lucky again with
a bet on satoshidice. Like above. Now getting to 45 BTC.

2) Now with 45 BTC I decided to place a wager on 79%, but with only 0.45 at least that's what I intended.
But in the end somehow I end up sending 45 BTC. (Human error)

3) Now with a win again. I am up to 55 BTC. Okay now I bought the 7970 and I now have 31.5 BTC.
I decided to make a spin of 85% with 9 BTC. (No matter the outcome, I would cash out the remaining)

4) Now I have 23 BTC. I then ctrl+c and ctrl +v and I click sumbit, to candian exchange.
But it happen to be the 50% bet. That getting on my clip board, and not copying and pasting
properly, I don't know. I suspect it was a 0.01 BTC I made bet on it as a test for unknown etc some time earlier.
And that had to of remained on my clip board. Though I wasn't thinking of this at the time, Completely not.

5) Now I have 46 BTC.


And that's how I end up going from 3.5 BTC that I should have to having acquired 46 BTC.

I am lucky and yes I admit stupid to somehow mange that.
Idiots ultimately get rewarded in the end it seems it

Well that went well all I can say  

Yes, it would be almost impossible for someone to accidentally make a bet on SatoshiDice wouldn't it...

Yes, it would be almost impossible for someone to accidentally make a bet on SatoshiDice wouldn't it...

Usually when you do a bet on satoshidice, you have to type, then click submit,
then click sumbit for fee. Like three steps.

What! Um, Either I am super lucky, or I don't know what.

I was going to cash out my remaining balance to Canadian bitcoin exchange.
I copied and paste in the address pressing ctrl+c and so on the site.
And I rushed to clicking sent, and submit.

But I realized that in my paste history, it had 50% Satoshidice,
OMFG?! Is this the second time I messed up? It appears
the ctrl+c function failed, or I didn't click it properly.
It happened in the past, only a few times though in the following year.
Perhaps a glitch, error, i don't know what.

Lesson learned, don't make bitcoin transactions when its 4 am in the morning,
and your 1/2 asleep.

But Ironically. I won.
And now I have 46 BTC, + have bought the graphic card of 7970.

How about picking another developer? I can work for you

I gave a promise to provide support service for this game, but unlike u I think it's developed in a wrong way. The initial idea was very simple - fish bites each other. But the developer changed his mind and now is developing a lot of extra (useless from my point of view) content. Bargheimer is working on player-ran shops atm but I'm afraid only a few bitcoiners will be interested in such content.
He has an idea to add a lottery, slot machines and similar stuff. A key feature will be ability for players to become shareholders, so anyone can be an owner of their own casino. I think this idea worth to be implemented as a standalone game/service. If some of u helped me to convince Bargheimer to suspend developing of TBF and switch to implementation of the idea, it would be great. I'm looking forward to become a shareholder of a casino.

is there any way i can change my website, i misspelled the url

I'm often finding my fishes with a negative balance, usually like one has now of -1.601 btc so I just don't feed those, but I see now I have another with a whooping -8.632 balance so there is some glitch going on here, I haven't tried refreshing but will in a few hours when I have to reboot anyway.

that being said I am still a huge supporter of Biggest Fish and think it's awesome.  I'm sure the "multi-bite" issue will be fixed quickly.

I often double or triple click on a fish that I had only planned to attack only once, especially if I have 2 windows open at the same time on a split screen in order to get the cursor live on the other window & end up doing 2 or 3 bites in quick succession when I'd rather do 1 bite then reload my balance to match the other fish if I lost before making a second attempt, it's my fault & I should have learned by now to be more careful as I've done this repeatedly but if there was either a confirmation pop up for each attack or a delay of 10 seconds or something before one could re-attack the same fish then that would solve this, but if it interfered with smooth game play for others then np as I do think now I will not make this same mistake again but expect that others will get caught out by this though. Even some other place to click in order to be in attack mode again (one's own fish, octopus, a base line spot) would stop inadvertent multi-bites, or a choice of single shot/bite versus repeater/automatic mode would be ideal as a setting for one's fish so one would need to click somewhere (anywhere) other than the fish just attacked before re-attacking it when in single bite mode.

The odds of my fish happen to be decided to be eaten upon within 5 secs of wanting to withdrawal we are taking millions to one?

True, But I was going to cash out immediately, I wanted to take out 0.214, but I didn't want to click it.
Its like I am going to press cash out on the slot machine, and there is a small green circle for cash out,
and  big red buttons circle around the green button. I have to be very careful to not press a red button.
And if I do opps I lose everything. Far as I know slot machines, and many other sites, make sure this
is extremely easy process.

It wasn't like 0.2 was a fortune or anything. But I am certainly annoyed, things need to be updated, and changed.  

It is kind of a 'sloppy' interface, but it is appropriate for this game imo. You were trying to get away but you bumped into a fish, whoops. The money you have in a fish is always at risk anyway. If you hover, the tooltip will come up and if you click then I think it means you are safe.
