Title: Cool thing to do
Post by: tysat on June 28, 2011, 05:21:36 PM
So is it the cool thing to do to come here and make a gambling game as soon as you get out of the newbie forums?

Seems like all I see is <20 post people spamming a game that's been copy/pasted.  Even worse are the ones written in broken english (I don't have anything against ESL people, but at least try to use proper english).

That pretty much sums things up. I personally want to see a "no spreadsheets" rule enacted to fight this. This forum is overrun.

People who don't want to see Gambling become Newbie Part 2, the place where everyone comes to try and get some bitcoins as soon as they leave the Newbie section.

The gambling forum was put in place due to the number of newer members creating these games.  Or would you like a sub forum of gambling that newbies are only able to post in as well?

It's funny this topic comes up now. I wanted to set up a relatively unique game, but I realize there are trust issues with newer posters.

I myself would love to see "spreadsheet games" banned. I myself am working on a Bitcoin slot machine (that I'll probably sell because I don't have enough money to operate it at the moment), and I don't want to see the gambling section collapse into a cesspool of spam.

If done well (I like to think I did it well) the "spreadsheet game" is very transparent.  I actually found someone who was scamming (he put in the first entry from another wallet) because of what was on the spreadsheet... and a little help from him PMing me a few days before about my own game.

That's the major problem, most of the "descriptions" written now are unintelligible.

tysat, you ran a good game back in the day... funny that back in the day refers to "before last week".

I feel like DeNiro at the end of Casino. The Golden Days are gone. Now it's n00b Jack City.

Yup, im waiting for this noob rush to calm down too. Maybe we can have some nice big games when they realise it's NOT a cool thing to start a thread here as soon as you bail out of the newbie section.
Im holding my coins for now, already lost too much because of all this silly short games.

People seem more interested in the pyramids than any other games or sports betting. I wonder if I should abandon my video poker offering and just put up a pyramid. :(
