Does anyone know if Blockchain has an official clock? So we can see what the game countdown clock says vs blockchain? It would be nice to see if blockchain is 10 sec behind game clock then those should be allowed in. However if they are both in sync the rules are clear on what to do with the funds.

I don't think there is one. There really does need to be a different start mechanic, tho. Everybody using the "Site" timer was actually relying on their own computer's time keeping. Some of them ended up sending early because the time hit 00 on their computer before it was supposed to. Other's probably ended up sending late because of that.

Yesterday, I had the site open for about 10 hours w/o a reload and was watching both the timer and the blockchain page. I noticed a flurry of activity on the blockchain while my timer still showed 15 seconds. I refreshed the website and the timer showed that we were already 10+ seconds into the round (it only took a seconds to reload); my timer was clearly off.

Relying on that Javascript timer (or whatever it is) is just a bad idea!

This happened to me. I saw a bunch of people going but I had like 10 sec or so. Thats why I thought 35 BTC or so was early. So I know it is asking the OP a lot because we have been asking a lot from him. He invested 20 BTC trying to fair up the weekly game. And now his rules clearly state early will be a donation. However since the website timer can become off maybe it would be best if they just get a refund this time until a better way to start is figured out. Just my thoughts. Truthfully either way he goes I will not be mad because one way would be just following his rules. However for the sake of those people I can see this is a flawed way to start.

Transactions mere seconds below 00:00 should be refund... You can't base anything on a website timer, OP needs to change the address every round.

The real problem is that there was an error again, and people completely stopped investing because they are not getting their payouts back. It can't happen every day, OP needs to find a solution because it kills the game...

I don't have a problem with refunds for the slightly early ones.   Still these people were trying to jump the gun and now they are trying to create a loophole.   The OP should clearly state the start time.   There are plenty of ways to get correct time on the web.  

I know but you can't really be sure if someone who sent 5-10 seconds too early did it on purpose or because his computer's clock or even the website's timer was off. The best way to handle this problem is to create a new address everyday and keep it secret before launch so nobody can jump the start. Again I don't habe any transactions before 00:00 but I feel bad for those who do and did it legitimately and I think a better solution should be fund.

It would be nice if the donations you took from this round went towards funding this round's deposits.

That I agree with.   It doesn't seem fair to mix the games.

Op instead of 24 hour runs just do a 2 hour run every single day because that is the only time there are investors. why make people wait 24 hours?  also good job on this your making bank.

seems the address 13owojW2yGUE1wjHNDfCiAD6yP85onjMhC was 1 second too early, but it is shown on the site list
are we looking at the timer of the site or block chains?

because the rules state (Attention! 24HourPonzi will launch when the timer hits 0. Do not deposit until Day #1 or you will lose your deposit.)


again the timer hit 0 when I sent it.  the site dosent say follow blockchainns time. does it.

Agree.
Same here.
Blockchain clock is not sync.

That 10 seconds early deposits must count as a good ones.
Or in worst case, make a refund of them.

The Countdown Timer is writen by "Andrew Urquhart" and is a JavaScript running in the browser.
Go look at how the JavaScript is written to draw conclusions about the timer.

The only thing to trust is the blockchain

transactions before 00:00 have to be donations or partial refund, but not as valid

If you refresh the site, the time you see is the correct time. If you leave it running on the page for a while, the time may drift. It's best to look at the blockchain time. I was lenient with those who sent a second or 2 before the timer hit 0. Any more than that and it was a clear mistake by the sender. The timer had not hit 0 nor had the time hit 0:00 GMT.

Anyway, I am having a dev look at completely migrating away from blockchain.info. They're a very bad service. I got them to whitelist my IPs, they said they did and then this happens. IPs blocked again. Ridiculous that they do that. If all goes well, we should be off blockchain.info by the start of Day #2!

I am just finishing up adding the missing addresses and then payments will start.

Thanks,

would be nice to hear something from the op  Roll Eyes

He is manually entering the addresses. I am guessing that 100 transactions in 1 min crashes his API.

more like 100 transactions in 30 seconds lol

Do 23:59:59 transactions also in game??

I seriously think a very hard line should be drawn.   Otherwise it just isn't fair.   Counting a donation is pretty harsh, but maybe a refund wouldn't be so bad.  But either one should be done.  

I am mixed on this. At first I said it should be a donation. Now I am not sure. The rules clearly state it will be a donation. So that part makes me want him to follow the rules to the T. We want him to follow them when it pertains to him so we should when it pertains to us. However if there is some difference between what blockcahin says for time and what his game time then I think we should not punish those that used his game and not block chains time.

That`s truly it!!

It's punish enough to be not anymore on the list on the page...
