Free?

BitGames is 100% free! We are community based, meaning we take donations and only give back to the community! Any cuts we take, we throw back to the community to keep the cycle complete!


Has to be a catch...

No catch at all. Everything is free! I've coded the whole site by myself and came up with all the ideas by myself. All I want to do is make BitCoin better by adding a little fun into it! More is to come to BitGames, but for right now come join us and help us grow! We can't grow by ourselfs you know!

"Game closed until budget grows. Please donate!"
Mind putting [Closed until more donations] in the topic?

How about not making it free?  1 BTC a month or something seems reasonable and could help you cover costs.

Would you pay 1 BTC a month to use the site?

Changed. Sorry I was up all night coding the site and advertising.

Bump! Come play our raffle!

Donating 1 BTC =P start it back up everyone plz =D

It's a nice looking site. One suggestion I have is that you should put captions below the icons that show up when you log in.

Hmm friendly competition!  ;D I wish you success!

The raffle looks a little familiar... ;)
Does everyone get a unique address for entering the raffle? If so, how do you transparently keep the total pot known to everyone? (I'm not saying you will, but some may hide some users and only give out part of the pot saying not that many entered)
How is the random person picked? By you?

Looks familiar, main difference is that BitLotto only one person takes 99% and registration/signing is not required making it a little more anonymous. Give it a shot! May 4th will be over 100 BTC!

Anyways, good luck  :) with your games. Plenty of room for all of us.  

Donation added, game set-up, go play  8)!

Thanks, I will add that  :D.

Thanks for including your site in my thread?

Everyone that enters the raffle is placed in a database. I take the database, have the server randomize it, and have the server pick three random numbers. Each number will match a random BitCoin Address from the database and I will send a cut to that address. I'm honest and will not rip the users of my site off; karma is a bitch. I will have the server be creating a list of members who have entered the raffle, for the whole community to see.

Edit: If you don't trust me, search my username on Google.

Sorry. Just telling you about it in case you didn't know.

I was really just curious how were going to run it. The hard part is proving you are doing what you say you are doing. Sure they could see the server, all the code, and everything. But when it is run, you could alter it. (I'm not saying you will but some will try it) . I guess with the set up people will just have to have trust I guess...

I already knew about your site ;D.

Well, welcome to the internet? Not to say it so bluntly like that, but technically you shouldn't trust anyone on the internet unless you know them in real life or you know they are trustworthy otherwise. I've set my system up to record the users who have sent me the BTC and to verify they have. On May 24, 2011 I will go through it all and see if it is correct. I'm not here to scam, if I was I would have never used my real username as I sell software online and people would no longer trust me. It is a matter of trust, that is all it is. If you trust me, then go for it, if not please leave cause I have nothing to prove. That is my attitude on people who feel I am untrustworthy or will not even give me a chance. Thanks for your concern and I'm sure people will read these posts and get a better perspective on me and my site :D.

I guess my main point is that make sure to set it up where most of the steps happen outside your influence and out in the open. Because it's the internet you have to make it so that even if you wanted to trick people you can't. With lotteries, people want a system that can't be cheated, especially if the winnings are big.

True dat. Everything is set-up, just need to add a little things here and there. It works though, people can play!

Just want to bump this! Dice game is up and running perfectly and raffle is going great. Come help people :D.

Bump again. Please join!

Bump to the top. People, please reply and join. More games to come!

Time to bump this to the top. Raffle is at 2 BitCoins!

Careful jhfire. Eventually you'll annoy quite a bit of people with all these bumbs!

Oh, and I tried the dice game but never got payment when I got the right number...

I know. I will payout soon, my site is down :P.

Did not understand how the dice game works, but won anyway :-). How do i get my winnings?

Edit: Maybe I'm to stupid to find it but where do i get to the community forums/IRC/someother gatheringplace ?

It shall come soon. My site seems to be down. I might be getting DDOSED.

Over 0.17 BitCoins sent out!

Now I know the reason why I didn't get paid.

However, I think you'd better give a note to the players that only amount above 0.17BTC would be sent. Otherwise, they may take you as a lier. (That's what I did.)

You really should attend to the forums. They are flooded with spam.
Oh, and please, do give a message if you actually are working on the project.

Careful, as the days go by it's looking more and more like a scam!
