Title: Now 198% to win and only 4 players required at coinrun
Post by: ds2013 on August 18, 2013, 09:33:00 AM
To reduce the time to wait until a race can start, we changed the number of players per race from 10 to 4.
At the same time the maximum to win changed from 178% to 198%.

What is coinrun@bits2win.com?
It's a bitcoin lottery in the form of a bitcoin racing game. Four players take part in a race. The player who has the fastest coin wins the biggest part of the pot. The player who has the slowest coin still wins a small part of the pot.

Try your luck and race your coins (http://coinrun.bits2win.com)!

I still don't get it...  How is the speed of the coin generated, is it random?

See FAQ (http://coinrun.bits2win.com/faq.php):

How is the speed of a coin calculated?
Every transaction has a time when it was first seen in the network (timereceived) and a time when it was included in a block (blocktime). The difference between those two timestamps is calculated as a laziness factor. The higher it is (the more time a payment needed to be included in a block) the slower is the coin. The least lazy coin in a race wins the biggest part of the pot. If there are two or more coins with the same laziness in the same race, the alphabetical order of the transaction id decides which coin is faster.

At least its a bet if your payment comes into a block faster then the payment of the other players.
