Title: ASIC Mining Company Dice Game
Post by: poly on February 28, 2013, 05:47:19 AM
Roll a die and see if it lands on a delay number. Count how many delays you have, and compare your progress to Butterfly Labs, Avalon and bASIC-MINING!

1. START: Everyone starts here.
4. DELAY: Your ASIC chips were blown.
5. DELAY: Your case manufacturer in China stopped responding to your phone calls.
8. DELAY: One of your employees quit and may have stolen the designs.
10. DELAY: Your ordering system crashed.
11. DELAY: Testing failed, mined blocks are all orphans.
13. STOP: Your alcohol problem has caused unattractive posts, creating a mass panic of refunds.
14. DELAY: A shipment of the cases were reportedly stolen.
17. DELAY: You were thinking of an excuse to delay so much that you didn't get anything done.
19. DELAY: You spent time trolling Micon instead of working on the miners
22. DELAY: Improper safety measures resulted in an ambulance being called
23. DELAY: TSMC extended the estimated time.
24. DELAY: Your bumping facility were late.
26. DELAY: You accidentally snapped a wafer in half.
28. DELAY: You have trouble smuggling out your chips out to be shipped.

ASIC-DICE is a ScaM!!!

I played and won, but they're now refusing to pay me my one-point-five sataoshi win. They won't reply to my emails or PMs. Then they banned me from their site for no reason. My cat has Leukemia Cancer and now I have no way to pay the vet.

I don't have a 28 sided die. Where do you get them?
