Title: $10 iTunes Gift Card [BTC][LTC][TRC][DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on January 07, 2013, 06:24:50 PM I have 3 unopened iTunes gift cards, each for $10.
To match the buyer with the bid we will require that the winner signs the hash id for the winning bid transaction with the key for the first input address of that same transaction and send that through PM here on the forum along with the name and address for shipping the prize (if shipping is required). For the message signing to be possible you will need to use an address for which you control the private key, so online wallets are probably not going to work. I will send the redeem code for the gift card through PM or email, GPG encrypted if the winner so desires. I can also mail the physical card, but the cost of shipping must be separately covered by the winner first. Place your bets by sending 0.001BTC or more to 1PipEaL8yRS8n93mUS16wT5SNDiMrMutv5. If you rather gamble your LTCs you can use the DICEonCRACK pipe address LPipeGWLJjMcKFZoE8GjDNCJT7mJEfcCpx with 1.0LTC or more. Also available for TRCs, use the DICEonCRACK pipe address 1PipEaL8yRS8n93mUS16wT5SNDiMrMutv5 with 1.0TRC or more. The larger the wager, the better chances of winning. [edit] Since there has been no interest in the raffle and I want to test a new feature for DoC (http://diceoncrack.com), only one card will be raffled on TAABL, with the other two up for grabs at http://diceoncrack.com/address?_=1PipEaL8yRS8n93mUS16wT5SNDiMrMutv5 instead. This is a crack pipe (http://diceoncrack.com/pipes) on DoC that plays the Minefield strategy with the threshold (and thus the odds) derived from the wager amount. In other words, the prize will be roughly Example: If you send 0.01 then the multiplier needs to be 100x which makes it a game of less than 65233. You can read the original Crack Pipe announcement here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=120239.msg1312797#msg1312797 [edit 2] https://i.imgur.com/JNMEm.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Rnim4.jpg [edit 3] added LTC bet information above. [edit 4] Removed TAABL raffle details, added DoC pipe for TRC and fixed pipe addresses that were all messed up.

You can get a $10 iTunes gift card for as little as 0.1BTC! Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on January 09, 2013, 06:37:04 PM Now also available as a DoC pipe game! The original post has all details.
Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on January 11, 2013, 01:33:26 PM Not a single wager on either TAABL or DoC, so I have to ask; is there another kind of item you'd rather see in these tests? Would an Amazon (uk or us) be more desirable? Something else?
Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on January 12, 2013, 11:11:07 AM I know what is going on, no pictures right?
OP edited to include pictures and target prize for the DoC Pipe reduced to 0.8 BTC from 1.0, making it 20% easier to win ;) Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: Jakers on January 13, 2013, 02:14:33 AM Is it possible you could reduce the price of the GC's? I would throw a couple bets at you if the pot was $3 per card with a 3 person limit per card. Other than that I don't really like my chances.

I would throw a couple bets at you if the pot was $3 per card with a 3 person limit per card. Other than that I don't really like my chances. I honestly don't understand what you are asking. There's a raffle going on TAABL, and I don't have any provision for limiting the maximum number of bets. Is that what you are asking? The way I read it (and I might be completely mistaken) you are asking for the raffle to have at most 3 bets for a combined pot of $3? There's also the User Pipe at DoC. The price here is configurable, I have it set at 0.8 BTC because that is close to the actual price of the GCs. The more you send as a wager the better the odds of winning are, so if you send 0.4 btc you'll have roughly 1 in 2 chances of winning, but you can send as little as 0.01. Understand that this is an experiment on ways to raffle and gamble items as opposed to selling or auctioning them, so the interest here is not to get rid of the item asap. If you are looking to buy a discounted GC I'm sure you'll find options that occasionally pop up here in the forum. These games are intended for those who are looking to gamble for them. Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on January 13, 2013, 12:44:14 PM I have made the GC raffle a Pick3 instead of a Pick4, to make the odds of matching much higher.
Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on January 17, 2013, 06:31:50 PM DoC Pipe target prize lowered to 0.7 BTC based on the current exchange rate, so better odds for your bets!
Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on February 21, 2013, 12:55:45 PM Target prize lowered to 0.3 BTC... an easy snatch now :)
Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [TAABL RAFFLE & DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on February 21, 2013, 03:58:35 PM Also available for LTC now - Send your wagers to LPipeGWLJjMcKFZoE8GjDNCJT7mJEfcCpx (http://diceoncrack.com/address?_=ltc:LPipeGWLJjMcKFZoE8GjDNCJT7mJEfcCpx)
Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [BTC][LTC][TRC][DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on February 21, 2013, 09:29:35 PM I won the taabl raffle myself, as there has only been one bet in a looong time. Just to be fair I placed a few more bets to unlock the raffle and I will be be glad to return the 0.1 BTC that someone has wagered to the rightful owner.
That card, along with the other 2, is now available on DICEonCRACK.com, and you can win it with your Terracoins. In a nutshell, there are 3 cards with the following target prizes: BTC - 0.30 LTC - 150.00 TRC - 2000.00 You will be able to place bets from 0.001 BTC, 1.0 LTC and 1.0 TRC respectively, the larger the bet, the better the odds of winning.

Sent from my Incredible 4G LTE using Tapatalk 2-modified BCT Hey DBG, thanks for the kind words. Yes, I have been around for a long time and I'm not going anywhere. These sites are much more fun than profit (in fact, if I summed up the hours I put it I'd be seriously negative) and are ways for learning new tricks to use in more complex projects. But let me just state that DICEonCRACK is not an SD clone at all. It was born out of the frustration of TTBit while playing SD, and it is based on the SD format for sure but the games themselves are significantly different. Anyway, we certainly appreciate all feedback! Title: Re: $10 iTunes Gift Card [BTC][LTC][TRC][DoC PIPE] Post by: nelisky on April 17, 2013, 08:32:36 PM Ok, I'm going to cancel all 3 DoC pipes for the iTunes cards, as there was almost no interest in them and it seems silly to keep trying to update the target price to match the exchange rate. One day I'll automate that and it will be fine, but for now a little house cleaning is in order.
If I don't get some discordant voices in less than 24 hours, the pipes will be closed. |
