I feel like they are increasing the userbase constantly to reach faster milestones, they have been doing marketing properly ever since they started but what people don't realize is that when you have 10 gamblers finding another 10 is hard, when you have 100 gamblers finding another 10 is easier, so of course with time they were doing marketing but now it is a combined effort of the marketing they did and the one they are doing.
So, if they continue like this they will have even more gamblers on their website 1 year from now, and there will be even more than that 2 years from now, as long as they don't stop it is a combined effort of past, present and future ones together. That makes milestones happen more frequently and faster thanks to marketing efforts.

No, it isnt only depending on bet speed but also to the players been playing constantly on the site. Speed is nothing if there are no sufficient players with that.
They have speed up their milestone due to that 2 reasons - constant no. of gamblers+speed up.
I second this, speed really isnt that important. What makes Windice so successful is, that they manage to keep a constantly growing and already pretty high user base. Back in June they had about 100 players online, nowadays this number rose to 250-300 users at peak times. The more users the more games are played and the faster the number of total games played rises. Simple as that. They have speed up their milestone due to that 2 reasons - constant no. of gamblers+speed up.
They do a lot to keep players at the site and promote it (rains, forum, sig campaign, ...). Those actions and features seem to pay off.

Anyway congrats for windice for the 250millions bet milestone. Would be nice if there is also a celebration for such milestone. Or probably they are waiting for 1 billion bets for a great celebration.
I remember they did something for 100 million and 200 million as well if I am not wrong, I think they are doing celebrations per 100 million system instead of 250 million and other quarter ones. However, I am pretty sure they will do something major for the 1 billion one, that is a big one. They have a really increased speed compared to back in the day, I remember it took over 10 days from 90 million to 100 million, was close to 2-3 weeks.Now, they are doing 10 million in couple days only. I do wish they did the same interval stuff for contests as well and I have said this multiple times but for some reason they don't really care at all.
Hopefully we will get one soon, I want to see one where top 100 gets money and the money comes from dropping the reward from the top people a bit, then I want exactly the same but just have top 5, like lets see which one is better, catering to whales or catering to bigger audience?

Congrats to the winners of the "Singapore Flyer Ride!" challenge!
I didn't make it to the top 10 with my 5 wins in a row with 28% win chance, but that is no surprise because the user LKL131 from the 10th place has managed to hit 8 greens in a row. Also his bet size was 2 times higher than the minimum bet required. Keep this in mind, guys, always bet with higher amounts than the minimum bet to have an advantage in case of a tie.

Well, we will receive an email from them if there is a wagering contest. I always received when there is a contest but unfortunately, I dont have enough funds to compete with the event. I would love to try if there is another contest.
The advertising effects of such contests arent that big because nowadays a lot of the well known gambling sites hold wagering contests, too.
I think if you sum up the 4th - 50th place Windice made profits out of this contest, too, otherwise they would stop them instantly. I did so for one of the first contests, they held, and Windice definitely made money out of it (considering the house edge only).

seems like there is no fixed schedule indeed , but I'm sure there will a contest be in the weeks to come
since they have very generous prizes I suspect that they are not very profitable for the house
the last two or three of them people won the top 0.1 or 0.05 btc prizes with less than 4-5 bitcoins wagered which is +EV
so I guess it depends on many factors , mainly the economical ones , but lets watch this space for the announcements
I usually make very good profit off of the contests at windice and would love them to continue

@OP, is there any upcoming wagering contest? Its been a while.
Yeah I'm womdering why they still have no fixed schedule for the wagering contest, I think it will be better if they do it regularly with fixed schedule like what other sites do.

Thankfully, I realized my mistake and now I don't gamble that much, for couple years I didn't even gambled but now I gamble with responsibility and create myself some sort of barrier so I don't go overboard again, thankfully haven't had any issues for years and I am having fun all the time whenever I gamble myself.
Thank you very much for sharing your story! May I ask what your barrier is? Do you have your coins stored in a safe place and cant access it that easy for example? I did so during the altcoin-frenzy in 2017 to keep myself from daytrading (and losing lots and lots of money because I am just not capable of trading, obiviously 
)
I do not have a limit physically, I usually gamble with only 50 bucks per week but I try not lose all of it neither, I just put it there as a deposit and don't really have a limit of how much I can lose of that, I just know that I want to postpone the next deposit as much as possible and that is the whole aim, I am not planning on winning money from it, I know what gamble is, I just don't want to lose all of it quickly to deposit even more later on. These days money is harder to find so it is harder to deposit more.
indeed , the conversation is gambling related and people are gambling at windice , so I don't see why they should be shooed from the topic
gambling is about socializing too , you will get tired of pressing buttons eventually and wanna have someone to hear you out or sympathize with your loss or share the joy of a win
having a limit of how much you gamble per week/month is good , this way you do not get sucked in and bet more than you can afford to lose

if you like adrenaline rush from gambling , you can get value for money at a crypto casino and your 5-10$ could last you hours if not days if you play within your limits and bank
sometimes you win and this comes as a bonus to the entertainment you are getting from gambling
And not to forget that you still have the chance to make a fortune, even if chances are very very low. Other hobbies like going to the cinema, playing football or whatsever don't offer this possibility at all sometimes you win and this comes as a bonus to the entertainment you are getting from gambling
Things are getting serious if someone can't stop playing and starts to lose a fortune. This is very unlikely to happen as long as you see gambling as a source of entertainment.

My favorite also is setting:
1, 1% of bankroll
2, Bet on x 1.02
3, If win, multiply wager x 1.02
4, Repeat 2-3, 35 times
If did not lose, you now have double of 1%. Use this on lowest payout until bust. Repeat again.

with the multipliers like that you are paying the highest HE "fee" so to say
the weight of it is way higher the lower your multiplier is
its a legit wagering strategy though , one can easily get 100-200x his balance wagered
unfortunately , it is almost inevitable bust in the end , I prefer wagering strategies where you can have a chance to win
for example 50% chance flat bets , if you pick a lucky side , you could get even or even profit
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the house edge is always the same, and whether we win or not depends entirely on luck.
Let's examine what happens when we make 10,000 bets with the highest and lowest multipliers possible, and with 1.98x(50% win chance) on WinDice. Let's get rid of the luck factor by supposing that within 10,000 bets we'll have exactly 9,800 wins and 200 losses playing with 98% win chance; and we'll have 1 win and 9,999 losses playing with 0.01% win chance; and we'll have 5,000 wins and 5,000 losses playing with 50% win chance. Let's suppose, the bet amount equals to 100 sats.
98% win chance
Won: 9,800 x 1.0102 = 9,899.96 or roughly 9,900
Lost: 200 x 100 = 20,000
Profit = - 10,100
0.01% win chance
Won: 9,900 x 100 - 100 = 990,000 - 100 = 989,900
Lost: 9,999 x 100 = 999,900
Profit = - 10,000
50% win chance
Won: 5,000 x 98 = 490,000
Lost: 5,000 x 100 = 500,000
Profit = - 10,000
To be honest, I didn't expect the 100 sats difference between 98% win chance and others here, but I can't see what went wrong with my calculations. So, if they are correct, then you are right, there is indeed a small difference, just 1%, but still it's there.

I like this 1.0102 one as well, it looks like it could be implemented with my current system as well and both of those could make a decent system together when you combine them.
The real way of making money from these kinds of competitions is never to play that small to get your wagering up, if you do not have enough money to gamble those big numbers I would suggest to keep away from them, if you have decent amount of bitcoin (like lets say 1 bitcoin to spare for gambling) that means you can spare to gamble like 0.25 bets and you can do 2x as well, if you gamble 10 times in a row with 0.25 that means 2.5 bitcoins gambled and you are on your way at the top anyway, 4 times in a row loss possible?Yeah, it is possible but also 4 times in a row win is possible as well, so all in all you are going to risk 1 btc which you can spare to enjoy a competition. If you have like 0.0005 and want to be in top 10 and try to figure out a method, all you will have is zero.

Exactly. You have to see gaming as what it is: a sort of entertainment. Everyone is ok with spending some bucks for a ticket to watch a movie, so we gamblers should be ok with spending a few bucks to be entertained by games, too.
If someone sees gaming as a sort of income he or she will definitly fail.

Yes,,, I recall a few people, Legendaries in the forums, always saying this and my first personal experience was with a member in an online chat. You spend $10 to watch a movie for 2 hours. Or you spend $20 to watch a football game. You can come into a casino with $10 and spend hours if you play it around well. And maybe even win with it. That is simply the bonus.
too bad not many players realize it , I follow a simple rule - once my coins leave my wallet to be deposited to a casino I consider them lost already
this is my "entertainment ticket" and I never gamble more than I can afford or chase losses or borrow to gamble etc.
you can socialize in chat , press the buttons or even leave your autobet running and go do whatever else you want to do
if you like adrenaline rush from gambling , you can get value for money at a crypto casino and your 5-10$ could last you hours if not days if you play within your limits and bank
sometimes you win and this comes as a bonus to the entertainment you are getting from gambling
