We have been discussing where to go with YOLOdice next, and I want your opinion about it. I have no plans to convert YD into a "game hub", but one or two extra games to kill time would be fun. And we want your feedback before starting coding!

1. Lottery - a PvP lottery has been on our radar for quite a long time now. The idea would be pretty simple - the more tickets you buy, the higher your chance to win the pool. The prize pool grows when more tickets are being sold. Not sure yet how long the rounds would be. Maybe 12h, maybe shorter, maybe a week, maybe random, maybe a few rounds at the same time. The main prize would get the most of the pool, maybe the second prize would get a small reward too.

2. Any other game - there are number of games out there. Do you think we could implement any? Keno, growing multiplier games, slots... There are many, but how fun are they really?

3. An original game - we have a few ideas for quite original games not found anywhere else that work in "provably fair" paradigm, have instant rewards, requires decisions when playing and could be fun. It's still an idea that would take same time but... could happen.

What do you think? What would YOU like to play at YOLOdice?

1 would be really good if you also added free tickets for every certain amount wagered like freebitcoin does. i think it would help give a chance to win big for smaller betters but still give whales a greater chance

However if tickets are given away for free it wouldn't boost up the winning amount. The more people that buy tickets, the higher the lottery winning would be. Giving away for free dilutes that and would have more hands in a smaller pot.

the site has a 1% house edge so if giving away free tickets gets more volume then they profit more from it. so if a ticket is sold for $1 they can give a free ticket for $150 in wagers and they will average 1.5 times more money from each ticket given away for free than they will from the ones that are bought

The lottery would not be a bad idea however instead of winning money/bitcoins you should make it interesting. Basically I wouldn't do the lottery for a "Lambo" because for one its very expensive and would take forever to sell the required number of tickets but why not do it for a more desirable car like a Tesla Model 3.

Its much cheaper, the regulations should be easier to deal with since its the opposite of a gas guzzler and everyone is crazy about Tesla now since their stock price went parabolic.

The Model 3 is about $35K, so you can make the tickets $10 each and would only need to sell 3500 tickets to get the lottery complete. Should really bring in the hype for Yolodice.

Just my opinion.

I would prefer the 2nd and the 3rd one simply because I do not like pvp lottery/raffle game Cheesy Adding other games that are popular already is a good option as it wont be hard to get players because players wont need to learn something new. On the other side, adding unique original game that is not available on other place will be an advantage as well because gamblers love to try something new but it will take longer time to gain popularity compared to the other existing popular games.

Me too man I love roulette! ..I won a ps4 in a raffle on another btc site (That went to shit(prc aka betking)) playing roulette!!

** I think another cool game to as ethan said "kill time" would be the btc minesweeper style game if anyone remembers diggit.io was a great game but something like that wouldn't be very difficult and I think could be a lot of fun!

you got a point on here . thats how lotto work right ? more ticket sold = to more prize   . on freebit they give free ticket via free roll and wagger but the prize was still good  though i havent tried to win even i buy some ticket along with the free ones that i obtain. i still see small ticket hodlers that  won the game  . still , adding lotto on this site is a good idea so that users can have something new to check aside from the good ol dice game   . that is infact gambling sites were doing recently  , they add new games and ideas   .

Definitely this one, it's always fun to play something brand new, and I think crypto gambling as a whole needs more originality to attract new players. Bonus points if this game has some element of skill or can be played in pvp mode.

I'm a fan of all of it. I'm personally a roulette guy. So I think that would be a fun game to pursue.

"Investors vs players". We keep talking about it every week when we have coffee with Scott... There is a high chance we'll do it, but we need to sort out some other things first - like better cold wallets, different commission mechanism and a few other technical issues.

When will it be developed again? in the near future after the wallet is cold, the commission mechanism is complete? I hope it will return soon too so please let us know when the investment can run again. I wonder if there will be anything new from the previous investment mechanism?

Great updates thank you ethan and guys for keeping everyone up to date and informed! I think I can agree that if we ever bring back investor versus player we have to really examine how to make cold wallets and security work better. I think especially when public funds are all exposed with stats and numbers,,, it naturally attracts malicious parties. With transparency comes great responsibility!

Due to maintenance all bets are paused.

Update: betting is restored, everything works.

So now, even though the bet data is split between more tables, nothing changes for you, the players. You still have access to whole bet history. This works for both web app and our API.

Thanks for your patience and good luck!

I can't wait! Especially bringing back DOGE investing would be amazing.

Hi,

I've finished coding "bet archive" - a split that will allow keeping current bets in a small and fast table in the database, while keeping older bets on a separate device. This will enormously help us manage the data, and might make the bets slightly faster (but not much IMO).

So, later today, I'll need to take YOLOdice.com offline for max 10 minutes. I'll be posting updates so that you are not left in the dark.

Cheers,
Ethan

Keno is nice and I do like the idea of playing with people, but I suppose that means Keno could be slower so maybe 2 options. A single player keno for autobetting,,, and a big keno lottery thing that you can bet on, and you can have leaderboards like most wins, biggest total wins, and even sidebets like betting on who wins leaderboards!

I like all these ideas, but personally I'm most excited about the PvP Lottery with a short-ish timeframe (like 1-3 hours), or multiple lotteries with different timeframes to suit everyone, and Keno. Cheesy  Keno is super addicting, for me at least.

I've looked at some sites and I saw keno rounds that are per-player. The game reveals the numbers and done. What about a more social game, with "shared rounds", like every 30 seconds? So that numbers are being drawn for all the players and you can see other players placing bets? Plus some progressive jackpot? Could it be more fun?

Okay, that is more fun. You really hit the right note.  Grin
I don't want to be playing alone. There should be a "competition like" that is happening.
Putting myself in emotion to envy them and be better the next game.

I have my pet numbers all ready.  Grin
Yeah, I like this idea!  Seeing others' bets/picks could be fun.  Something like, you pick 2-10 picks out of so many numbers, say 30-50 total numbers, and then somehow you can see other peoples' bets, and that progressive jackpot you mentioned could be fun too.

Can i play the game without deposit any thing can i play plz tell me
You can play with the faucet, to try the site out.  However, with a low-level account faucet is quite small (gets bigger with more levels), and I believe you can only claim 10 times.  Later on with more levels you can claim up to 50 times.

I only play Keno at one site, and it frustrates me,,, but it is also fun in a way, because unlike dice, you can sort of pretend that you are only aiming for small hits and play for it on auto, and if you hit the jackpot it is REALLY huge.

But I am most interested in an original game that no other site has I feel we should spend the most money and time on that,,, we should all brainstorm!

Something social is definitely needed I believe, add a mix of skill and luck and chat?
