Title: Bit14.com - predict 11 of 14 outcomes, 0.02BTC per pick, 11.82BTC jackpot! Post by: codro on March 01, 2013, 10:12:59 AM Launched a new Bitcoin based gaming site a couple of days ago:
http://bit14.com The point is to predict outcomes for 14 sports events (currently European football), and if you get at least 11 right, you win. A pick costs 0.02BTC. Current prize pool is 11.82BTC. Note: To create a ticket there are 3 steps: 1) Make your pick(s), and click Submit. Tip: You can start with the Favorites and tweak your ticket from there (see the links on the right of the matches). 2) On the following step you will be able to enter a Bitcoin address where you will receive your winnings if you win. Feel free to create a new address for this in your wallet, or use an existing address. 3) This is the bet slip, you will now be able to pay for/fund your ticket. This is the page that I need the link of in order to fund your ticket. There are no fees yet, the entire bet is added to the jackpot. I'm interested in seeing what people think first. And... to make the launch sweeter, I'm going to fund tickets for the first 5 people to reply. Just post your ticket link and I'll fund it with actual BTCs which you can verify with the blockchain. (within reason, less than 0.2 BTC per ticket please) Please let me know what you think. Now with affiliate tracking!!! Simply point anyone to bit14.com?r=<your bitcoin address> and you will receive a 10% commission on their bet, regardless if they lose or win! Payouts are processed every two days. They don't even have to bet right away, any bet made within 31 days from clicking your link counts towards your commission! Title: Re: Bit14 - quick and easy sports forecasting, with a jackpot! no registration Post by: codro on March 01, 2013, 11:34:41 AM I've been thinking about making some sort of affiliate system for this to help it grow, but since registration is not required, a classic affiliate system wouldn't work.
However, I think I have it figured out. I'm thinking about making it so that if you are the first to submit a ticket with a certain combo - you get a 5%(10%?) commission from anyone else submitting a ticket that is essentially the same as yours (win or lose). This works because you can share links with preset picks, such as: http://bit14.com/grid/24#2827324004941 I envision someone creating some third party site discussing strategy and providing well thought out picks as clickable links. Any thoughts on whether you think this would be a good idea are appreciated. Title: Re: Bit14 - quick and easy sports forecasting, with a jackpot! no registration Post by: codro on March 03, 2013, 11:41:56 AM So, since most people here probably don't know me, I notice that people are reluctant to try this out, even though I offered to fund the tickets myself.
Between friends helping out submitting tickets and me, the prize pool is now at 11.72 BTC. Having a chance at that payout for basically free doesn't intrigue people here any more? :) ---- Also, I'm looking at ways to get this site in front of people - willing to pay, let me know what your price is and how you could help.

http://blockchain.info/address/18oGWNjcUgpSCJFQBXXCi2ARhuLQdsuHNN There seems to be some sort of problem with blockchain.info at the moment and the payment isn't showing on the ticket currently, but I reached out to them and it will be fixed momentarily.
