Launch Status: ONLINE


*******************
Dear Beloved Bitcoin Community,

After much adieu, the Spirit of Satoshi would like to humbly announce her latest incarnation, Satoshi Dice Tribute (https://satoshidice.com).

She has watched with enthusiasm and pride as several other Dice operators released worthy and interesting games over the past several months – sites that innovated upon what Satoshi Dice had pioneered, and brought new value to BTC gaming community. The Spirit has not been idle. Today, she observes many of these advancements, and brings some more of her own to the community, in the quest for the perfect Dice game for us all to play while fiat crumbles around the world.


Satoshi Dice Tribute

Main Features

• Beautiful new interface
• Huge, instant payouts
• Session-based
• Bets are instant (they do not occur on the blockchain)
• Zero-confirmation deposits
• Comprehensive player statistics
• Live social chat
• Multi-language support
• Provably fair, with user-defined client seed support
• “Mood” system
• Full API (have fun developers!)
• Tribute system (details below)
• 1% of gross earnings donated to Sean’s Outpost charity

What is Tribute?

Tribute brings social competition to Satoshi Dice. In real time, the three highest ranked players receive a piece of every bet placed by every other player. The ranking formula is confidential for now (and we may tweak it as we observe real use).

There are three Tribute positions:

• King – Receives 0.1% of every bet placed by every player on the site
• Lord – Receives 0.05%
• Jester – Receives 0.02%

You’ll notice you have a rank as soon as you place a bet. Your rank determines whether you acquire a Tribute position. The top three players, in real time, achieve Tribute. Tribute holders can be knocked out at any moment, and rankings are entirely reset every day at midnight GMT (though the Tribute earned is kept forever).

What are “Moods”?

You will see references to “moods” in various places. The Spirit is not yet revealing details about what this is, but it will become increasingly important in the future.

How do the accounts work?

Satoshi Dice Tribute accounts are “session based.” When you first play, you’ll be asked to enter a Bitcoin address. This is the address your winnings will be sent to when you withdraw.

You’ll be given a Session Key – DO NOT LOSE THIS. The key is your password to access your session.

Sessions are perpetual; you can leave Bitcoins deposited in your session. You can also create a player name and track your career statistics.

For security, withdrawals of Bitcoins can only be sent to the Bitcoin address entered when the session was created. Funds are returned to the player’s BTC address after one month of inactivity (a protective measure in case players lose their Session Key).

Are bets provably fair?

Of course! Satoshi Dice pioneered provably fair gaming and Tribute uses a robust verification system so players can check that each bet they place is fair. Further, players are able to provide their own client seed if they wish.

Is the original Satoshi Dice gone?

Nevar! The original is now called Satoshi Dice Classic, and operates just as before. The site has been redone with a few new requested features.  Classic and Tribute run separately, and bets placed on Classic do not affect player rankings or Tribute stats.

What if I have questions?

Post them here or email the Spirit directly at support(@)satoshidice(.)com

LAUNCH PROMOTION

The first 1000 players who lose 0.1 BTC from their wagers will have 0.1 BTC deposited back in their account (ie - roughly $20 of risk free gaming!).

Enjoy!!  

Click here to play Satoshi Dice Tribute (https://satoshidice.com/)

Launch Notes:

- Live site is running with decent performance now.

Known Bugs:
- Automatic promo is not functional (the 0.1 BTC is not being sent). It will send when we get it fixed to any accounts owed.

- There is a bug with some players getting kicked from their session. Restarting the computer tends to fix this (we know, not a great solution) Fixed

- There is a bug which throws up "Error Processing Request" on some bets. The bet still occurs, but is not displayed or logged where the player can see it. So, some players think they have BTC removed from their account when in fact it was a bet loss. Fixed
 
- While the hot wallet gets broken into numerous bitcoin inputs, when there are zero confirmed funds in the hot wallet, players get a Max Bet of zero (meaning they can't bet). This gets corrected whenever a new block is found, and the problem will resolve itself over time. Fixed

- There is a memory leak causing progressive laggyness platform-wide. This should be fixed by Wednesday night (Nov 6th) .  Fixed

- Some players are having deposits not show up. We have a temporary script run a couple times per day to catch these, and have a more permanent solution on the way.

^^^ We are working to kill these bugs ASAP.


Playing Tips:

- Press Enter to roll once automatically. Press Shift to Martingale automatically.
- Check the Live Chat if you have questions
- API is available here: https://satoshidice.com/api
- "Tribute Earned" is a cumulative total of all the tribute you've received from other players
- To clarify: Having rank gets you tribute, but having tribute doesn't get you rank.

So essentially I can deposit .1 BTC, make one bet at 50% and freeroll it? If I lose how do I get my refund and how long will it take before I get my .1 BTC back?

Some interesting new ideas here with the ranking system. Going to take a look now

Amazing!

The 0.1 bonus will be sent to you as a bitcoin transaction (over the blockchain) to your deposit address in the SD account. It should happen immediately once you are down a net of 0.1 btc.  

Deposited 0.1, played a little bit at the start when the site was extremely slow, half the rolls didn't process and the other half took a minute or more sometimes. After a while it cleared up and it became a much better experience. Played my 0.1 up to 0.21 (with a detour past 0.23 and then 0.06) before I lost it all. Was instantly credited with a fresh 0.1 thanks to the promotion. Withdrew that and a few mBTC extra which corresponds to the tribute I received.

Site looks nice and functions well (after the initial problems at launch), but it doesn't seem to have any unique advantages over sites like Just-Dice or PrimeDice. The tribute-thing is a cute gimmick, but will ultimately only affect a very small number of people.

Hi Rannasha - we'll get the lagginess corrected. Thanks for your comments.

Congrats on the launch guys  :)

nice catch up. :)

Nice suspense on having 30 seconds delay on my bets
*Edit got my coins

Extremely laggy, but looted about half a bitcoin. Was good day.

Update on the slowness - we believe it's caused by the interaction of our server and our DDoS protection. Queries that take 60ms on our test server are taking 1.3 seconds on the live site (under DDoS protection). Continuing to work on this throughout the day. This game will be fast. Thank you for your patience.

The lag is really bad, please solve it ASAP.

Also, after I get in, I cannot find any clue if the bonus is still available to me.

Is the bonus still open?

I can't make any bet, the "bet max" value is zero, though I have way more than that in my account.

Edit: Everything is working now :)

Okay, it is worse now, the site is not accessible with the "504 Gateway Time-out" or "502 Bad Gateway" error.

Edit: Everything is working now :)

Tried it as well, site's down.  :-\

Yes bonus still applies. We'll post here when it has run out.

i made a deposit for .02 BTC but the site doesn't work fine and i can't gambling, and also can't withdraw the money, can you give me a refund please i'm tired of the slow site and maybe i'll try it other day when that site is more stable

I cannot access the site, always get 504 Gateway Time-out.

Sometimes I can finally load the site, and after entering the login key, I get "404 Not Found".

Is it just me? or everyone here have the same problem?

Seems to be down for me also :(

Site down for some modifications, stand by. We know this delay is killer!

that's why the bonus is still on :P
as no one can login and get it :(

A+

It's dead...

for over 15-20 mins now :/

Damn, you guys are really impatience. I don't even want to imagine how much work they have put into this and how much work they are still doing to get everything running smoothly for you guys. There will always be bugs and problems and it will take time to fix those.
Please cut them some slack and wait a bit longer.

The live server is having a mental breakdown. We are taking it to the hospital.

We're switching to a backup server while we investigate the issue, which will be up in a few hours. Nobody's funds are in danger. Thank you for your patience.

+1 for PR with a sense of humor. 10/10 would read again.

Well, I guess those guys are having a mental breakdown too. :P

Site is super slow right now, is it being Ddosed?
I do like the new layout though, I'm gunna play some right when the site starts working again.

The server is having a mental breakdown. They are trying to fire up their backup server, so I guess they will be back in a while.

Deposited 30 minutes ago, played a few roll, but i can't access the site since 20 minutes.

Will my balance still be there?

Any news on when will came back up ?

Your funds are save and there is no estimate on when the backup server will be up / when the live server will be fixed.

No offence but all the people that have funds on the new satoshidice tribute want to know when they will be available again.

An official announcement with constant updates of the situation is needed.

PR, what's the situation?

Hello, sorry for the delay. We're narrowing this problem down. We've brought it up temporarily on a new server to try some things. We see people already joined in and started playing ;)  Problem still isn't solved though and performance is terrible. We continue to work.

is the site still up ? and whats the promo stats?

i keep getting error invalid client seed

So no eta at all about the solution of the problems?

Also, the service went down while i was playng, when it will return available, i will have my last balance updated to the latest bet that i placed or there is a chance that the latest bet data are lost? i was in nice profit :)

Regarding an ETA, it'll be more than a few hours but less than a day. Wish I could be more precise.

Your bet data is safe and if you saw the result on the website then it was already recorded in the database, so congrats on the win :)

Nice to hear  ;D

Keep us updated.

Sounds like a great service. A review will be up on Bitcoin reviewer once the site is running properly.

Edit: Satoshi dice tribute review (http://bitcoinreviewer.com/satoshidice-tribute-review/), feel free to rate the site guys :)

That's much appreciated, thank you :)

An update of the situation will be appreciated.

Thanks

Update Time:

We have more details now about the nature of the problem.

All site operations (betting, stats, etc) run through our API server. On the test platform, the API server barely uses any CPU; yet on the production platform it was running 100% despite the production platform being far more powerful. According to the processing stats we have, requests were being processed extremely quickly (~60ms/call avg) on the production platform. So something else is amiss. The major difference between the test platform and production, is that production has several additional security layers. It must be some dynamic within these layers that has introduced a bug not discovered on testing.

Long story short, there is a problem with the production API server (likely a problem with how the code is written, not the physical server itself). We have two excellent developers on this right now who are working as fast as possible to isolate the bug and resolve it.

Will post another update in several hours and assess an ETA then. Based on this ETA, we'll get user deposits returned. Thank you for your continued patience, we've had some really kind PMs and the community support is heartening :)

Just wondering, but how many promotion uses are left? ;) Haven't tried SD: T yet. Waiting for it to come back online.

Bets placed through blockchain.info appear to be on hold as well.  None of the satoshi dice address have paid out in quite some time...

hope this gets resolved soon

This was because the processing agent got stuck (happens occasionally). It's now back and processing the backlog. All is well (with the old SD at least :) )

And with the new one ?

There is a light a the the end of the tunnel ?

New server with updated code is being set up right now over the next few hours. Stay tuned.

It's almost 24h :) .

It would be great if because of this delay, you'll be able to re-start the promo from the beginning :D . That's just an idea though. :)

Cool, I'll check it out.

Thanks for keeping us updated, SatoshiDICE_PR.

Update Time:

Our new server is set up with all services ready. Blockchain is syncing which will take a while (damn satoshidice!) The API server is running much better in the new environment. Once the blockchain is synced, the components will be brought online, tested internally by us, and then opened to the wild. If we see gameplay happening smoothly, we'll post here to inform that Tribute is back in business.

And to reiterate, all deposits are safe. All account/session activity is preserved from when you were playing before and will be in the same state you left it.

ETA: 9-12 hrs

Thank you guys.

Good to hear that. Will try it later.

Honestly this is becoming embarassing.

People (like me) read on the forum about the launch of the new satoshidice platform, decide to play and get their funds trapped for 48 hours.

The updates are all the same "just few hours, just few hours", but already 48 hours passed.

So, is possible to have the real point of the situation?

nice idea with the tribute system though.

is it right that the top 3 players are resetted daily?
Are there any results from the first day how many tribute they received?

thank you in advance!

Best of luck with the release, SatoshiDICE.

From the pictures it seems very slick!

Satoshi Dice = fail

with their lame house edge of 1.9% compared to other dice sites offering 1% i have no idea why anyone would want to play there.

Update Time:

Everything is running well after our tests on the new server. Blockchain is synced. We're awaiting the datacenter to point to the site (dropping the maintenance page).

Let's hope this really is the right time!  ::)

What about the launch bonus? Will it continue? How many of it is still available?

This, I've been wondering also.

I am also wondering. I need some more funds for my faucet and if I could win those at SatoshiDice. It would be nice if I could get back the funds if I lost it.

Yeah, something needs to be done to stop people like Mooshire abusing it though.

Is Satoshi back up now?

Nope, still down.  :(

I start to be tired of this "we are close" and nothing happen.

This launch of "tribute" has been terrible, funds are hostage by 2 days, let's hope they will recover some reputation is some way.

Everything is up and running again. ::)

Errors can happen, cut them some slack. They are trying their best to get it back online (and it is right now).

Thank you sincerely for your patience over the past 48 hours.

All systems are green. Site is live.

Play here (https://satoshidice.com)

We'll continue monitoring.

Could you please address the promo questions?

Yes sorry, forgot to add that. The promo has been restarted for 1000 sessions. If you lose 0.1 BTC, you'll have that much paid to you as a deposit into your account. We will post here again when this promo runs out.

Enjoy! (https://satoshidice.com)

I see. Well I would play but I get a the following error:
I did deposit on the website and it has 3 confirmations.

Nvm. It works now and I lost it, well good thing that the promo is still on.

A bug has been found - occasionally the player's "Max Bet" is set to zero (meaning you can't bet). We'll fix this asap. In the meantime, the bug goes away on its own after a few minutes.

EDIT - this is likely related to btc change in the hot wallet. Awaiting more blocks!

is the site up and running already?

But:

You can load the site and deposit, but you can't bet atm with the "Max Bet" bug as mentioned by SatoshiDICE_PR

thanks guys, but I cant connect to the site  ???

Connecting to the site shouldn't be an issue now. Can you give more detail? (or email support at satoshidice.com)

Hey,

I played 0.10 for the bonus, but it appeared error processing and my balance set to zero.
Will I receive the bonus later?

There is another bug with the promotion bonus (it's not getting sent). Rest assured your bonus will be sent to your account once we resolve it. It's likely a server migration issue since it worked beautifully on the original launch platform.

I keep getting:

Error Session Not Active

What does this mean?

You need to fix the text. Make it completely white, not black with white outlines, so people can actually read it.
https://i.imgur.com/0YPWIhA.png

The website is very slow, and very glitchy. The design means nothing, if you can't play the game.

I'm not the only experiencing these issues:
https://i.imgur.com/Nkck5p7.png

Chat messages are taking minutes to show up. Not exactly "live chat".

I honestly expected more from SatoshiDICE's new "Fast and Fierce" dice game.

Site got stuck... again, but this one is taking longer than usual (over 1h).
Blocks appeared, but the site's maxbet stuck to 0...
Withdrawals/Deposits do not process either..

I think there aren't admins online right now either =( .

Overall good experience, but you got to work harder on the lag ... And other bugs.

Nice thing about the bonus feature, but I think many players missed it because of the bugs.

Waiting for some news, as there are many players waiting for them in the frozen website :) .

Regards and hope it will get better in time, ASAP...

There's one user called "satoshidice" that tries to steal funds from players in chat, by saying he's an admin and giving them fake deposit addresses.

Real admins, please do something to stop these kind of scams.

Also, the website's still frozen  :-\

PSA: There are a few evil players posing as Admins in the chat. They are posting BTC addresses and telling players they'll get bonuses or whatever for depositing there. DO NOT SEND BTC TO ANY ADDRESS. Admins will never post "bonus addresses" in the chat.

We will modify the chat soon such that admins are indicated authentically.

Verified admin accounts:
Admin_Luc
SatoshiDICE_Kat

You rly cant think about it before they fucked up me, and other people?

i have generated a key with btc adres 1 and deposit btc to that account wityh btc adress 2
still i have not recieved my btc's over my account.

Hello, I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you please email support at satoshidice.com and we'll help resolve the issue for you.

Update: We took the site down temporarily to make some updates (including a way to indicate who is a real admin in the chat). Will update again within 2 hrs.

Waiting for updates then!

And we want to know if the promo is still going up.

He already answered that:

Ok, so we only need the site to be back online, i made a deposit 6 hours ago and i havent been able to play

2 Hours have passed, we want updates!

Update: Our changes are taking a while. We'll be taking a few more hours to work on this as we don't want to hack things together imprudently. These updates will result in a much better experience - we've learned a lot from the real-world usage patterns over the past few days. Please stand by, will update later today.

Could you take this time to fix all the bugs you have found up till now?
Namely the slow page loading, zero max bet, promo not sent, slow chatbox, fake admin issue, and any other.

Seriously, I would prefer to try a fast and fully working SD Tribute after waiting a day, rather than a slow and buggy SD Tribute in a few hours.

is the site working?

I think you should give us a compensation for this time down, we have our btc stuck at your site that has been with issues since the re- launch.

Update time:

The Bad News:  We need to keep the site down until tomorrow (technically part of it is online, but players cannot login).  Site is up but not running well. We're monitoring for testing purposes.

The Good News: We have two basic server setups - our web server and our API server. Today, substantial improvements were made on the web server. We completely redid the processing engine. It is now far better able to handle load and to avoid some of the errors that have been occurring. The API server is still in the hospital still causing problems and needs further work, and this is our focus tomorrow.

Yes we will restart the promotion once all is up and healthy. As always, all deposits are safe and all betting stats, history, and tribute are preserved. Your patience (and the kind feedback we're received from some people) is greatly appreciated.

You can likely access the site now, but it will be laggy.

Note: all legitimate Admins now have an asterisk before their player name  (for example: *Admin_Luc)

I would like to get my bonus deposited, my withdrawal address is 177YxG1D9BRSTq6iXgUhCZtXcofis1Qyt6

I just lost all my balance because i made a bet and it said "error processing bet" but i actually win and i dint notice cause of the error, so i made a second higher bet because i thought my last bet dint work and i lose.

thanks!

https://github.com/NM-Development/SatoshiDice-API-Wrapper

Wrote a PHP Wrapper for your API.

Available to anyone and everyone.

Easy-to-use for implementation of your API within another site.

Might be helpful, who knows.

Enjoy and nice site.

any one play this looks like not working for me

me too, waiting for the bonus to be sent.

Update Time:

Today, the site has been reliably stable - the backend is technically working without crashing or seeing fatal errors. Performance is still sluggish, however. Two updates were applied today that have significantly reduced server burden. Further, we know now that the Tribute calculations - specifically the way the system calculates them - are the primary remaining bottleneck. Tuesday and Wednesday this bottleneck will be worked on, and this plus the two main bugs players are experiencing will be solved by Thursday evening (European time).

For now, the site is remaining online so players can withdraw balances as needed.

Regarding the promotional bonus - players who lost up to 0.1 BTC will be getting their bonus, we have it tracked. We cannot turn on the bonus system right now, as we need to limit the components of the system that are in operation. Any of you so far as of this post will be receiving the bonus, so please don't worry.

For any specific issues, please email us at support at satoshidice.com and thank you for sticking with us through this! People have been really kind, considering we dropped the ball on the launch. Thank you!

if i lose 0.1 now will i get the bonus ? and is the site stable now ?

Withdrawals are working fine for most players. Please pm me with your email address and we'll get it sorted.

Just Pm'ed you. Hope will sort out my problem. Just wanted to withdrawal, but it didn't worked yesterday probably and got fooled, don't count on bonus ;)

He said the people who lose before this post. now they are triying to fix the bugs before implement new promotions

Update:

We've taken the API server down for the next 12 hrs for some updates and testing (so the website is up, but it's not possible to login right now). Will post here when it's back online so players can access their accounts - please stand by.

https://satoshidice.com/classic


EDIT

You know, for being worth millions of dollars and being the "Most popular bitcoin game" (prove it lol) you guys are doing a pretty terrible job at running a website.

I agree with the Op, its better taking off the site the time you need to bring it back later without bugs or lag than keeping it online in the way it is now.

Has been a awful launch, BTW I deposited 0.01 and got 0.08 back.

BTW - legacy site can always be found at http://legacy.satoshidice.com/ (http://legacy.satoshidice.com/)

And yes it has been an awful launch. We've been sacrificing goats for days but no luck so far.

The only way to fix the server is obviously something slightly connected with restarting the promo again.

*cough**cough*

;)

lol we all would love that :) , to op you making a misstake taking the server up before its complete and now it making your site untrustfull people will think you try to cheat thier money or something . fix it and then only let it online

Update Time:

Site is up. We're continuing to work on code improvements with the API and database.

In the meantime, we've changed the Tribute calculations such that they reset every 30 mins instead of every 24 hours (you still keep all the Tribute you've received, of course). This helps our database process much faster. When we get the problems solved, we may change it back to 24 hrs unless the players prefer the shorter intervals.

Update are slow bad opening Satoshi

Is the promotion still available ? How many left ?

Seems like the site is completely unusable again. Is there any ETA when this will get fixed?
(Note: Maybe the performance would be better if the page wouldn't make about 5 http requests per second)

Update Time:

SD Tribute is down so we can apply some patches. If you made a deposit and it didn't show up, don't worry, the funds are safe (and we can confirm on the blockchain). Similarly, withdrawals that were supposed to process will go out as expected once the site is back up. We will have the site back up on Friday. Thank you for your patience.

Update Time:

Site is up. We corrected a bug that wasn't seeing deposits. Any deposits now will show up instantly (zero conf) or will take no more than 15 mins to be corrected (it's not based on confs, it's based on a script that is running to check txs on the blockchain).

The Error Processing Request bug is still here and is our next priority. If/when you see it, your bet is still happening as normal (whether win or loss), but it won't show in your history unless you refresh page.

When i try to log in

504 Gateway Time-out

Hi.

I had over 1.1BTC on my account. I can't login because I get an "Error processing request on the login page." Like this: https://i.imgur.com/K1qCqIA.png

This happened last night too but then it worked for a few minutes and now back to this.

What's going on?

Hello - we're having more DDoS issues right now, giving 504 errors on the site (just what we needed!).

We're working on a solution and will be rolling out more patches in the coming days for further site fixes and optimizations. Thanks for your patience.

I accidentally made a deposit to an login I can't access the withdrawal address anymore (it's from Inputs.io, the hacked site), is it possible to get it refunded to my original sending address?

If it's still DDOS'ed , it looks like it's attacked from dozens different spots.

Damn you, informational attacks!

Hope it gets better..

That's the idea behind a distributed denial of service attack.

Sir.. I sent you a message.. Please check.. ive been waiting for 5days for my refund....


Thank You

Somehow i cant withdraw my funds...

Are all the problems solved now? It has been a really awful launch.

site is still down. 504 bad gateway

its online now

No wonder...the goat ghosts must have came haunting back.

Updates, SatoshiDICE_PR, updates please!

Tell us you're still alive  :-\

What is the status and everything ? I saw other people posting that they had thier coin stuck at the site ?

The PR reply are so slow and no updates , pitty for those who have coin "stuck" at thier site

I'm rather suprised that SD was valued to millions of $ worth of BTC, and they release something buggy that need so much "live" fixing over several days. Why didn't they wait for Christmas with a finite product, rather than releasing for halloween with a quick-and-dirty version? That look more amateurish than most of their smaller competitors in the dice-gambling world. SD, be careful, you cannot expect to keep your position in the market indefinitely just based on your name!

 

Bitcoin Reviewer has posted a new review of Satoshi Dice Tribute. It can be found here: http://bitcoinreviewer.com/satoshidice-tribute-review/

Please leave your feedback in the user rating section or comments.

Hello all,

Apologies for the delay in updates. Yesterday we released a patch which has resolved a number of bugs, including the "Error Processing Request" issue that plagued some bets. The website itself is loading much faster now. Lag in the gameplay is now greatly reduced, but not perfect... and we will make it perfect. Further, we have also fixed -most- of the issues regarding missing deposits and inability to withdraw and work today and tomorrow should correct the remainder. We believe the bug is related - some deposits aren't getting noticed, and thus the system doesn't see them, and so the deposit doesn't appear and withdrawals from the account don't work because the site thinks there are "pending" transactions.

The site has now processed over 100,000 rolls. We promise the next 100,000 will be much smoother, and we continue to work. We've handled the majority of outstanding customer service emails - thank you guys for your patience!

Just ran a script to find any missing deposits and add them to players' accounts. If you've had a missing deposit recently, it is likely fixed now. If not, please send PM or contact an admin on the site chat and we'll investigate.

Can you tell how many 0.1 BTC promotions you still got ?

Also, wanting to know about the situation with the bonuses too.
I played when the bonus period was active but the script was 'paused' and you said we will get refunded.

When will we expect that?


Regards!

It seems that the website works quite fast now. I did found one error ::)

---

http://i.snag.gy/rylCf.jpg

Any eta on when the 0.1 cashback promotion of likely 10 days ago will be processed ?

The bonus is still paused as the deposits it created were causing a bug with withdrawals. Many people have actually received the bonus but it's just not showing in their account yet (due to this bug).  So, until further notice (likely a few days while we work on higher priorities), the bonus system is switched off.

Is the promotion still running? If so ill toss .10 btc in :)

Nvm just saw the post above me, will play when bonus is active.

Wow I remember when I first visited SatoshiDICE and was blown away by the site.  Glad to see things are being approved upon and hope the bugs are sorted out.  All the best with the site and the attacks!
 

Yeah, SatoshiDice is actually a really nice site. Hope you successfully sort out the attacks and such.

Be careful! Do not enter your BTC to this site! It can be found under DOS and not working correctly! Confirmation of the new deposit extends from one day or longer! Withdraw BTC you can not! Requires confirmation deposit is not clear what the confirmation. Administrator and support available to chat and do not respond to the letter! I look forward to my 4 day confirmation of BTC to take them back.

Deceivers! If the site does not work correctly, turn it off!
You roll the real money people!
Thieves!

Time to auction it, starting at 1 BTC for the name. Such a great (fake) 11MM investment.

You need to refund the bonnuses also. Or nobody will trust you again in the re-launch.

Tribute was not ready to go live.

Tribute will remain offline while we correct these issues on a fundamental level, because you, the players, deserve better. We will announce the re-launch of Tribute no earlier than December 15th. All player deposits will be refunded.

We apologize sincerely for the disappointment. Thank you to the community for the productive feedback. We will make this right.

Bravo! You took 4 days .......

Look like they got it :)

Meanwhile you can try LuckyB.it (http://LuckyB.it), we're still in beta but I promise you'll have fun  ;)

At least make your crappy site not crash every browser before shitting on other threads. Satoshi Dice didn't advertise their site on your thread.

Hello all,

As some of you saw, we've decided to take Tribute down for now. We were just not able to get a handle on the performance issues and it was not fair to the players. We will work hard to make the product you deserve.

In the meantime, we'll be automatically sending out all balances to players' withdrawal addresses. There are around 4,000 accounts so this will likely take a few days. Thank you for your patience.

Tribute will return with a vengeance (and proper functionality ;) )

What about the missing 0.1 promo?
Will you send it to the withdrawal address directly as well?

+1

Interested about the missing promo situation too :) .

How much longer paid on the deposit?

im still waiting for the refunds.

I made my first deposit but it didn't clear before the site was pulled so I never set up a withdraw address; how can I get my refund?

Thanks

4 days has passed.
Has anyone received the refund yet?

No, we were deceived

no refunds yet  :-\  :'(

Nope. Let's calculate how many btc are "missing". I deposited 0.09...

I introduced 0.7 BTC, won 12 BTC, wanted to get, but the administration completely ignores me, then gambled to 2.6 BTC, but bring them so I could not.
Started to swear here and claim to disable the site's disabled, promised to return the deposit, but a week passed.
The administration also does not answer letters.

oh wow , thats alot, mine's only 0.02 ...

Since deposits didn't work for a few days prior to the site going down, I guess the total amount of btc owed is pretty big.

No one will be waiting for your re opening dont waste your time improving it, scammers

Hi there,
 
You should see your refund in the next 24 hours, we are handling the last round of Tribute refunds now. Thank you for your patience!

I returned 2.6435638 BTC.
:)

what a cheap asses, they cant even aford a 0.1 btc bonus and they are claiming to be the number ones.

PD: why did you edit your post, dont be afraid of exposing those people

I communicate through an interpreter and maybe I did not understand the word bonus, so put it away.

you also edited the sad smile to a happy smile, the interpreter also translates emoticons?

well, in fact i dont see why will you be happy to have only 2.6 btc returned after more than 15 days when you had 12.

You guys sent my entire balance to my inputs.io account. Now that money is gone to me. I already specifically noted to myself not to withdraw to that address. I would like a response or refund, thanks.

Finally, I can get back my balance :)
Sadly, it seems the missing 0.1 bonus will forever be missing :(

Same here. 0.1004924 BTC in my inputs.io account.

(problem is, I had already withdrawn those from SD! Why did you send it again??! The first transaction was 50ebf2da (http://50ebf2dae9a411f4799e7e5e9a3f6af86320abb3c6b01d1a5a0440998d6c71fc).)

Same here.
I have done my withdrawal half a month ago, and you resend it once again lol.
It seems you didn't check the withdrawal history before doing the refund.
Is it just an costly error? Or some sort of compensation for downtime and trying to rebuild the SD reputation?

I dont receive my payment yet :/

Hello all - withdrawal payments have started going out from yesterday (Sunday). There is a large list of accounts to process, so we are monitoring the transactions. We'll ensure that the bonus 0.1 btc goes out to all appropriate accounts (though it won't necessarily be in the first transaction you receive).  Thank you kindly for your patience thus far, we know the wait has been ridiculous.

Thanks for posting!
Your frequent communication would gain trust from those who have deposited and are waiting.
So, refunding 4000 accounts in progress... where about now?

Tweet from @SatoshiDICE.

"Happy Thanksgiving week everyone; we vow to give thanks to our players by finishing refunds and improving #SatoshiDICE classic. Enjoy!"

I haven't received yet.

Satoshidice Tribute... in case you haven't noticed you are sending bitcoins to people who have already had a successful withdrawal from you.

For example
Wallet #1 received 3 payments from you a few weeks ago, 0.5, 0.5 and 0.5 btc
Now you have sent that person another 1.5 btc


Not good, you have done this many times (even mine but only a small amount) I notice 1 person has sent 10btc back but kept 0.5 for himself.

You might want to look into this before issuing anymore 'refunds'




Another example.. and there's plenty more

1JTRcqCa1vCc4psi6GKGctLJpgDB2G62XP

You sent 29.52552611 btc here 2 days ago as one of your 'refunds'

but a few days earlier this same wallet received 29.52467486 in 2 withdrawals from you and had no more deposits to you since then.


That's one lucky wallet ;)

Nobody seems interested that satoshidice has accidentally? sent what's probably hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of BTC to people they didn't owe anything to.  :o

Read the posts above you. We are talking about it, lol.

All I see is people complaining they haven't got their btc back. Have you read my posts? :)


Instead of refunding outstanding balances, they seem to be refunding all previous deposits+withdrawls. In otherwords they're giving away a truck load of btc.

2 days ago I received some btc from satoshidice but they didn't owe me anything as I already withdrew it over 2 weeks ago.

People who successfully withdrew 30btc from satoshidice tribute have just been sent another 30btc.

Care to show the proof ? This is some kind of weirdo marketing to me.

Help yourself... there's pages of their 'refunds' Check the addresses they were sent to, most of them were owed nothing. Instead they just received double their previous withdrawals myself included.

You can see the 2nd transaction from the top, one person decided to send the 12btc back to them... most other people have done a runner. Rightfully so as its satoshidices mistake.

Picture proof for those who cba researching like I did. Read from bottom of pic upwards.

I've added up some of them and its well over 100 btc, maybe up to 1,000btc or more.

As I said in an earlier post, you sent my refund to an inputs.io account along with many others.

They've had to go through thousands of refunds (most were done by mistake and they've lost hundreds of BTC) so unless its worthy amount then give them a break. Afaik they issued refunds to previously used withdrawal addresses so doesn't that means you used that inputs.io address before on their site?

Its only 0.1 and some satoshi but that it significant to me, over $100 currently. Yes, I deposited using inputs.io but when they were hacked I noted all the websites I used them with and was being very careful to not use that address anymore. It was very reckless to just send refunds back to the deposit addresses, how would they know if the depositor now has/ever had control of the deposit address?

When starting a session on SD:T you were asked to provide a withdrawal address. I reckon that's the address used for the repayments.

Actually I thank SatoshiDICE for curing my mild gamble addiction.
Bitcoin gamble is dangerous, because it is easy to access. Much easier than physically attending casino.
Further, there is no such thing as Self Exclusion Request here.
Luckily I met SatoshiDICE and learnt a lesson. The first impression of BTC gamble will now keep me out of it.
Thanks to those who are kind enough to share successful refund experience, now I think I will receive it some time, Although the waiting sucks.

Edit: Finally I've received the refund.

Still waiting on my refund! Who else is?

Or did I just get screwed on my own?

Sending an email mentioning your BTC address(the address in which you sent deposited to SatoshiDICE Tribute) will help.
In my case, it took 1 day to get reply and 2 more days to get refunded.
Now I assume they are not trying to rip off, they are just not very "experienced".

I did that; no response.

It's not a lot of money but the long wait is most irritating along with some people getting double refunds!

After a fair bit of hassle I finally got my money back; as it turns out they are an honest bunch!

Why is the legacy satoshidice site always struggeling with reachability/accessibility?

I made a bet yesterday and it is still not processed, though blockchain shows that it is confirmed?!

Is there a promotion going on?
