Title: theBet.is - Beta feedback requested Post by: thebetis on July 01, 2013, 11:21:28 PM We are soft launching a new bitcoin betting site and would love some feedback on the beta.
The basic idea is that you place a bet on a number related to some verifiable event. Should your selected number come closest to the actual number, you win. This is a bit different than most sports or event betting in that instead of playing against the house, you're playing against the other players. The pots are awarded much the same way as all-in/side pots are in poker. This means that depending on bet amounts, multiple winners for each event can (and usually will) be paid. http://thebet.is Any feedback you have would be great.

Competition is good for the market. And we think we have a unique spin on things. Title: Re: theBet.is - Beta feedback requested Post by: MPOE-PR on July 02, 2013, 08:29:16 PM So does everyone else.

Was this a pop quiz? I'll bet you you'll make more promoting bitbet bets than doing this. That's all. Competition is good for the market. And we think we have a unique spin on things. Oh, the answer is that novel spins on things suck because if they worked someone else would do it and it wouldn't be novel. Ideas especially novel ones are worthless unless they are, You know done. This seems about as far from done as most any offering on BTCjam to be charitable. More bitcoin has probably been produced by Sharpies...

(http://polimedia.us/trilema/2013/they-really-are-buttcoins-nao/) Lol don't be a hater. I'm just trying to make sure people at least vaguely may meet this outrageous concept where instead of being islands of one adrift pn a sea of nothing they could instead be part of something. Sometimes it seems to me that teh atmosphere is irrespirable with unwarranted autism, but I promise you that if it ever swings the other direction I'll just switch too. Okay? |
