Not saying this site is a scam, but one day while I was on dice.ninja, the owner mentioned in the chat that he was working on some nicer graphics for a moneypot clone and posted a prelimiary sketchup of a rocket. Again, this is 100% speculative and I don't have much of a reputation here, but thought it might be of interest to know.

I saw that too.

Just to clarify, you mean the owner of dice.ninja, dmf. He posted a rocket animation.

It was quite a lot more complex than the one on tothemoon - the rocket accelerated, rotated, blurred, etc. using WebGL animation (like his "fancy bets" stuff) whereas tothemoon appears to be simple CSS3 animation - the rocket never moves, the starfield is a constant diagonal scroll, etc.

I thought I downloaded it and viewed the source code, and remember being impressed by it, but now I can't find it. Maybe I just did a right-click -> view-source in the browser rather than saving it to disk. I think it was hosted on d.n so now it's gone. Sad

it's all the same people why who acting the fool? ..you caught up here in your own lies! Wink

I heard this guy just copied moneypot's code for his site. Douche.

Which is perfectly fine, even encouraged. The problem is that the license is not being complied with, i.e. ToTheMoon.is's source code is not made available to visitors of the site in a prominent location.

Exactly, the source code is released by espringe under AGPLv3, in which you can find the details in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.html

I like that someone is holding his feet to the fire to comply with the license, but why isn't Eric the one doing so? Does he not care enough to pursue it or has he asked you to do it?

It's not worth my time. He's done a great job revealing his character in this thread, and not someone I want to be associated with. His players balances aren't adding up, and he seemingly hasn't discovered the admin /shutdown command to do clean deploys, instead preferring all players to lose their bets (e.g. game id: 22419), all the while flatly rejecting my offers to help.

Ultimately he's doing the real moneypot.com a huge favour. He's got a kick ass UI to get people hooked, and when they want to go somewhere where it's run properly our doors are open.

calm down, i'm checking it out right now ! ~ going to find out who is running this site ! Wink

So is this legit or not? Moneypot rip off?

So it's a scam? Not too surprised, go to moneypot instead.

Nobody is saying it's a scam.

It's just a shame the OP just has a hard time putting the code on a reasonable source control site like GitHub and put a visible link somewhere to comply with the license.

He could have done that days ago, would have taken him 5 minutes and all the drama would have never happened.

~ most likely the same crew behind this site as moneypot ! ? :\ hmmm

Thankfully, this community has Dooglus — sleepless watchman, crusader of justice — who has a long history of contributing his time to expose dishonest actors.

Come here and say that! Wink

Thanks ToTheMoon, you've done the right thing. =)

There is no specific requirement that you use git, or github or anything -- just that you make the source available under the same terms, as you have done so. I recommend putting a link in your FAQ or something to a stable hosting for it.

Going forward, I will now be more than happy to work with you and offer any assistance.

As I said before, I really like what you've done with the site. You might want to consider adding SSL as a priority though =)

Eric already pointed out that OP needs to comply with the license. It was simply ignored. Eric posted again to rescind his support for this project until OP complied with his license. OP responded with (my words) "we're both in a field that's full of scummy actors, so what did you expect? Despite what the license says, I'll open-source it only if I feel like it" (link).

Unfortunately for OP, problems don't go away just because the other party can't be fucked to babysit you on an internet message board.

Thankfully, this community has Dooglus — sleepless watchman, crusader of justice — who has a long history of contributing his time to expose dishonest actors. That's one of the reasons he's laden with trust-clout which was used to annihilate OP's trust-rating and spur him into [slow, begrudging] action.

Last weekend I discovered moneypot was closing its doors and the owner was selling the site. It was one of my current favorite bitcoin games, I was already starting to get a little addicted to the game. Wink

One thing where I always thought the game could be improved a lot was design, and let it be the case that this is one of my strong suits. So when I heard that Eric was selling, I decided to take matters in my own hands and recreate this amazing game in the design I thought it always deserved.
After working on it for the last couple of days almost non-stop, I am proud to present to you the first version of ToTheMoon.is!

ToTheMoon.is is moneypot in space. Instead of chasing a graph, you are on a rocket on its way to the moon.

Please do try it out, I hope you guys like the end result as much as I do.

There have been some questions about our solvency in the chat. Here I have signed this address 1M5kj7JCyd2KiWCbgMkvyAjuzC173nEgsg with 100 BTC on it, saying "These funds belong to the owner of ToTheMoon.is"

IFQ8gFMd4GzGlNDKI66lMXRvD6iZxot2MWJaBMAISRMZ8zRDrekKSfl+z194dRV9f28OlDvX2i7gt97OtZ5psB4=

That's all I can really do at this point, for the rest I can only say please withdraw at will.

hi eric !
