I haven't seen any gambling website that does not allow users with hidden profile to not participate in the contests. Most of big gamblers prefer their profile to be hidden and if they are not allowed to participate in the contest, the gambling website would lose them. So we should not expect Windice or any other gambling website to not allow hidden users to participate in the contest.
Usually, I check the profile of top places of contests. But making the profile hidden is their right.
By the way, what is the benefit of hidden profile? A public username cannot reveal your identity. You can use any username you want.

I agree to you most big player want to hidden their  profile but this is not issue for any waggering contest, just enjoy this contest and do your best to make on the top 10 to win reward, by the way I'm happy to receive my reward on last contest.

Game owners can do as much as they like and also spreading up the word doesnt really cost 10 seconds to someone.So why they should refrain on launching up some contest?
Simply put: To keep it something special. If it happens too often it becomes boring, or would you like to celebrate Christmas every week? Grin
Time will tell, I am sure Windice will lower the frequency if less and lesser people are taking part in the contests.

I agree that it would be better if hidden player could not participate in races, but it does not trouble me so much.

If the competition is liked that much maybe after this one or at least after the third one we could consider like a weekly one? For example, it starts at midnight when its turning to Friday (Thursday night going into Friday) and than ends at Sunday midnight? That way every week people would know there is a competition here and come here to gamble.

Both the casino and its players would win from this, I mean players who win big rewards would get big rewards and casino would have a ton of people gambling and trying to beat each other in wagered numbers as well. It is just a suggestion, it all depends on how the second one goes, if the second one happens to be huge as well and the team loves the results than I suggest my version of weekend competitions instead of randomly doing it.

Two days left and chickendinner is by far sitting the 1st place on this competition with 3.28BTC wagered. And most of the other following candidates are hidden.

It's a common practice for gambling sites to not award players who are hidden in wagering contest. What about WinDice? Do players who are hidden receive prizes? Sorry, if it was answered earlier, I guess I missed it then. At least from what I can see about the previous wagering contest on WinDice, hidden players were rewarded.



EDIT:

~It is common in  most other gambling site such as Stake and Primedice. There are many hidden usernames joining the race every single day, it is allowed because I believe it is a part of the privacy of the gamblers. There is no reasons for the site to ask their players to reveal their usernames while there is a contest running.~


Hm, interesting. I thought PD had this rule, I was talking about. I just check it for Bitsler, and here is their top 5:



Maybe it's a coincidence, but there are no hidden players in the top 5 there.

I'm a little uncomfortable with some hidden players in this contest however this is a public contest for the players there, Windice should only allow people who show their account names to show fairness. I also don't know how they hide their names while in the privacy setting we can only hide total wagered and profit Huh

There is no reasons for the site to ask their players to reveal their usernames while there is a contest running. Big players usually wants to be anonymous as much as possible including hiding their usernames from other users. If your main concern is about fairness, I believe windice wont do something like cheating on the contest by creating accounts to compete with real players.
Coming up to the privacy setting, probably once you set your total wager and profit hidden then you will be hidden username automatically.

Jesus Christ, I think windice made a ton of money from this competition, otherwise why would they put a new one right after the most recent one.


It is not necessarily so. With so much given away as prizes, I think it's good if their profit during the contest wasn't negative. It's a promotional contest, and normally gambling sites don't make money with those. It's run for the sake of promotion.

I disagree with this.They wont make things if they werent able to make money out of those promotions/contest.This will give out both (profits and exposure).

I second this. It wouldnt make any sense in terms of promotions to host the same contest right after the last one. There is way too less time in between those contests to get any marketing effect eg. people have no time to spread the word and tell their friends about it.

We know how other players do give importance their privacy but this is crypto gambling where identity cant be known even if you do showed up your username.
Hidden feature is somewhat senseless on my part.

About the long term 1% house edge I do completely understand because it approximately match to what we usually know. It will be 1% from the wagered amount. But in his case for the 2 loses is a little bit weird, I just want to know if it is also affecting their numbers of bets or not, because as I know there will bo not much different on the bet as well. Is it true that he is using the 98% of winning probability?

According to what he himself said, yes. The chance of win was set to 98%.
Generally, when you set the chance of win to 98%, it is expected to lose 2  times in every 100 rolls, but there is no guarantee that this happens. 
If the house edge is 0, in a game with 98% chance, the odds is 1/0.98 = 1.02
Existence of house edge causes the odds to be lower.
If the house edge is 1%. The odds is 0.99/0.98= 1.01

You see, although I lost two times, my negative profit is almost exactly equal to 1% of the wagered amount.


So you are saying that with 100 games which is 1% house edge you are suppose to lose 0.3 at one time but instead of losing once you are losing twice so that means it is lower than 1% of the house edge. 0.5% per lost? Because in my perception when you are doing 100 games with 1% house edge you tend to lose only 1 times right?  1% of 100 games should be 1 but you have 2 loses although the amount that you wagered is almost 1% of the wagering. Is this what you meant?
When the house edge is 1%, you don't lose 1% of the games you play. The number of games you lose depends on odds too, When the house edge is 1%, in long term. you lose 1% of the amount you bet not 1% of the games you play.
Int the game Betwrong has played, the probability of winning is 98%. So, he  lost 2/100 games. The house is 1%, so he lost 1% of the amount he wagered

About the long term 1% house edge I do completely understand because it approximately match to what we usually know. It will be 1% from the wagered amount. But in his case for the 2 loses is a little bit weird, I just want to know if it is also affecting their numbers of bets or not, because as I know there will bo not much different on the bet as well.

Do you have plan to conduct contests regularly every week, every 10 days, etc? Or the contests will be conducted on random days?
Seems that everything is going very good with your website. The volume is high and I expect the second contest to attract more gamblers.
If you are about wager contests, then I don’t know, and if you mean other weekly contests, they are published on the forum weekly, and also do not forget about contests in vk. In general, I like this approach from the administration, here you can earn a few bucks with virtually no risk of losing your deposit.

Let's see after the first one how much money will be gambled this time, will there be some people who got tired on the first one or will there be even more.

I think there will be more contestants next time, one can't get tired of getting prizes. Smiley

Wow! Another great wagering contest is happening so soon!

Hope I won't miss the last hour of this one. Smiley

One tip for the potential contestants: the last hour is the most decisive one, but also try to wager something before that to have an advantage over those who joined in the very last hour. Auto-betting speed has its limits, you know. Wink
Jesus Christ, I think windice made a ton of money from this competition, otherwise why would they put a new one right after the most recent one.

They probably made a ton of house edge profits in total and what they gave away as 0.3 was nothing compared to the money they made, think about it, if they did only a slightly more than usual then there was no need to make a new one right afterwards, they could have waited or even try a new one that might have resulted with more profits, if they lost money then they wouldn't even try to make a new one, it is so obvious that they made a ton of money because they are doing one right away.

Let's see after the first one how much money will be gambled this time, will there be some people who got tired on the first one or will there be even more.

Mathematically they made profit but I do not think that the profit is that much. Continuing the contest is not about the profit only but it is also a part of the promotion that they need to do to compete with other gambling sites. Even if they lost a lot of money on the first contest, I believe they will still continue the contest to be a regular contest. It is how business work in general, any business needs to be ready to lose some money at the beginning stage to get great profit afterwards.
