Title: Sicbo.io - Community Sicbo Gambling (Sneak Developer Preview)
Post by: TakumiSicbo on March 28, 2017, 10:40:43 PM
Greetings BTC Community!

My team and I have been working on this project for quite a while, and it's finally starting to get somewhere  ;D
It's a gambling website called:

Sicbo.io (http://Sicbo.io)
Community Sicbo Gambling.

For those that don't know what Sicbo is, it's a popular casino game most commonly played across Asia, where three dice decide the various bet outcomes each time they get rolled. For example, the player guesses that all the dices, when rolled, will land on the same specific number, the so called Triple, which has an outcome of 180 times the initial bet if hit.
Or, he could also try a more varied choice, betting on multiple outcomes in hope for profit. The amount of strategies and bet combinations are huge!

Right now, the website is half-way through the development process, so we still got plenty of stuff to finish and polish.
However, the game itself is fully playable! We are giving away 100 'test' coins to every new player, so they can test it and hopefully give us feedback on what they like, what they don't like and what they think needs to be added.

If you don't get the 100 coins right away after registering, please refresh the page, they'll be there!

Anxiously waiting for your feedback  :D

-Takumi

Like you said, sicbo is popular in Asia, so it is not the "new way" to gamble, title is misleading.

You're right, I'll update the title now.

You should give some screenshot or link for people that dont even know about this game. And try to explain with more detail on it and how does it works because the games seems to be popular only in Asia mean while most of us is coming from Europe. And btw is there any giveaways for your new site to attract more people here?

You do have a point most of us would really don't have any idea on what kind of game is this and better to put link related to it to reduce the hassle but anyone could make some own research about it on google. Sicbo seems a very strange word for me I would try to research about it and might caught my interest on playing it.

It's true that since most users don't know how it works, it would make sense to get a link to an explanation, but Oilacris also has a point, not knowing about the game might lead the user to do his own research in case he gets interested.

However, we plan to use a tour system to introduce any user to the game, it's particularly daunting initially, but once you get how it works it's much easier to see why people will like it.

And BTCevo, we'll start doing giveaways very soon, the only thing that's stopping us from doing them is the current not-polished state of the website, but once everything gets set up and functional, we'll let them roll out.

I see this game has very high house edge, the data reads from wizard of odds.

1. You didn't even include clickable link in opening post...

2. You didn't mention how high is Houese Edge, according to WoO it is between 2.78%-33.33%,
So it might reach 33.33% to be the highest HE of every casino game, even higher than Keno.

3. After fast glimpse I don't see any Provably Fair verification on your site.

4. I see you have interesting option to log in with Steam account - is this safe?

While that's true, it's variable, meaning the house edge depends on the user specific bets, as Slark mentioned below.

Indeed, just love the way you can do multiple varied choices and patterns in the table  ;D

1 - Thanks for mentioning, fixed.

2 - As I said above, house edge varies on user choices, up to the whooping 33.33%. We'll make sure to point that out on release.

3 - As we're in development, there's not a page dedicated for it yet, but when we're ready to let the real bets come in, the provably fair page will be provided.

4 - Yes, it's safe! We have added it so CS:GO players and Steam users in general could easily use their accounts to quickly log on site. There's nothing to worry, since Steam themselves provide the Authentication Page and API, so no crucial Steam Account data is retrieved. Also, almost every CS:GO Gambling website uses this kind of Authentication method, so it shouldn't be a problem  :D

Thank you guys for the feedback so far by the way!

I never tried nor heard about this game before. Aside from users doing their own research, it's still much better if you'll be having your own tutorial in the site too. Also I hope the FAQ page is listed in your to do list, it will be more convenient instead of asking every detail here.

The tutorial is in the works at the moment, and we also plan to add a FAQ dedicated page too. Thanks!

this game is also known as hi-lo in some countries,namely the US,Philippines and UK
it has some really atrociously high house edge options,so make sure you do not bet on doubles (a specific numbers to roll on two dices out of three)
it can be up to 33% house edge which is sick  :o
also,what set of odds are you using for the game? seems like the macao ones are the worst for a player
I haven't seen a standalone hi-lo game,just variations in some of the online casinos here
if marketed right and the game itself is without bugs -it could be a success
will come back to try it out when it is fully operational

We're currently experimenting with odds, but they're pretty much standard sicbo odds. We're also considering lowering the house edge on launch after the feedback we got from here  :D
Nonetheless, our bank and advertising finances are still being sorted out, however we are open for investment proposals at the time this has been said.

Hi all,

I am the developer, figured I should make an appearance in here. We are generally looking for any feedback that you guys have in testing the app, eg what looks cool, what doesnt, what we need to add/change/upgrade etc.

Thank you sincerely for your support so far, we will keep working and hopefully get something live by the end of the month.

Cheers
