Title: 5 BTC Behind 5 Doors! Post by: SgtSpike on September 14, 2012, 08:02:49 PM So, this is kind of a silly game, and I could very well end up losing money on it, but here it goes...
I have 5 doors with a combined total of 5 BTC behind them. Send any amount of BTC to any of the addresses at each door. If the amount of BTC behind the door, after processing previous bets, is equal to or greater than the amount you send, then your bet is doubled! If the amount of BTC behind the door, after processing previous bets, is less than the amount you send, then you get nothing! The game ends 24 hours from now (1:00 PM PST on 9/15/12). Each door has at least 0.1 BTC behind it. The hash to prove how much is behind each door (after the game is over) is: 664dce16d2a858798d9034e203b834f952fac18ce36c198a9e453d6f3e736fb7 Door #1 - 1C3sRrLrVAYJSqc8g2qh9VW3w6pUiiQMrc Door #2 - 15SDcokopxFS3VCMbfGHZyeE4rkhJvex9u Door #3 - 1PPtkNhJruft7cJf57J6zUp3re3E8VeBnC Door #4 - 1Gwnng5B4EyAypQz17otu2QED7G8pTvHyL Door #5 - 1Jc2LqfybEx2aS55PAsEfChQS9STq4d3b6 IMPORTANT: BTC will be sent back to the same address it is sent from! Do not send your bet from an online system like MtGox, or you may not receive your winnings properly! Title: Re: 5 BTC Behind 5 Doors!

Door #1 - 0 BTC received Door #2 - 0 BTC received Door #3 - 0.01 BTC received, doubled to 0.02 BTC Door #4 - 0 BTC received Door #5 - 0 BTC received 5 BTC distribution between doors: Code: Random data to prevent anyone from calculating this hash: fj82a934fjhg849haj8i2fj3iovj2408 Title: Re: 5 BTC Behind 5 Doors!

I missed this game, but I am looking at this line and wondering why a player wouldn't send 5 btc to each address (or 5000 for that matter). It's guaranteed to have equal to or greater than the amount sent, and so in each case the bet would be doubled. Even splitting in proportion the number of coins behind the door doesn't work (it's still a guaranteed win, although it's limited to 5 btc total). You are lucky only one person played.

Title: Re: 5 BTC Behind 5 Doors! Post by: SgtSpike on October 01, 2012, 03:02:05 PM I'll consider it. I did do it one more time (only listed it in the base Gambling subforum instead of the Games and rounds subforum, which seemed to garner more interest). I lost money that time around though! Needed even more people to play...
