Title: I have an idea of game. But can't programmed.
Post by: gege1976 on February 26, 2015, 08:10:30 AM
Sorry for my bad english.

We have 5 players with the same bet (for example : 0,005 btc).

Every player chooses a different number from 1 to 5.
The player who falls on the number releases lost 100%.

The others 4 players wins 20% (4x20% = 80%).

The people who makes the game takes 20% (-fees of transaction to others players).

I don't want to make that game, it's just an idea.

Don't insult me thank you.  ;D

Thats a pretty nice idea. However with the fees it will give the house a pretty big edge. Its also a bit like ponzi , but more of a gambling game.
Overall its just like betting at 80% on dice, but more fun.

It is a cool idea but you would need to be really big in order to have players always playing unless you make a mode where you can play against bots

Good idea.
You can go the "Services" section to find or hire some one corporate with you to programme your game.

It's not really interesting, I think it's just like playing dice game on 80% luck.
And also you don't need to wait for another player on dice game, instantly rolling and easier play.
But that's just my 2 cents ;)

So it is like a lottery game, but instead of having one winner and many losers, your game has one loser and many (small) winners.
The idea isn't bad, but a 20% fee is way too high.

I can say idea is really good but the beneficiary will be house in this bet. Yeah as someone mentioned up this is like a some kind of ponzi game. Well, best of luck for your creative idea.


Title: Re: I have an idea of game. But can't programmed.
Post by: sandy47bt on February 26, 2015, 08:53:26 AM
Looks like lottery game, but other player not lose all their balance
Overall it's good idea, you might have to search someone to work together with you

But, some people will think this is similar with dice game


Title: Re: I have an idea of game. But can't programmed.
Post by: yenzae0215 on February 26, 2015, 10:23:55 AM
nice idea.. but betting 80% on dice site is better for there will be an instant result and you dont need to wait for players to join you

If you succeed to find financier and your game goes live then would like to play on your site as this is nice idea.

I have something to tell you,

If there is a 5 players, that means 20% every one investing, so 100%

When one losses and other 4 players take their money back ie. 4 x 20%

And the admin who run the site take 20%

Who is the winner ? The Winner is admin who run the site

And from the investor one loss all the money, and all other 4 receives their money back

So where is the profit for the 4 investors ?

Fixed your %'s to make it an actually competitive idea.

this seems like a ponzi schemes but the idea is good if you can make this into a game-like, it will attract people because seems like everyone is bored with usual dice games

I think the problem is that if he has no development knowledge, then either he will have to risk the money to get it setup.
ANd the bigger risk is the developer developing the game for himself, and starting his own site which would be slightly better than this, at the same time.

It sounds like a really small lotto!  I probably wouldn't play it myself, but the idea is fair enough as long as it is fair and the house edge small.

why would you not play it? it is just a general idea, OP could come up with something like why the other 4 players will win instead of it being random anyway

Post by: Netpyder on February 26, 2015, 05:57:33 PM
its not really a bad idea
but there are some modifications which needs to be met.

1. you must have lots of bots to play against players because no players will wait for hours to hit the button

2. you need to make the bot run on a fair luck game else you will now loose players.

3. the house edge is way too big mate.
you should try get 2% maximum on the house. anything bigger than that, players will run away.

4. you will need a good marketing person to market it because besides that it looks like dice game, it should be able to entertain the players and only a good marketing person would be able to do that.

5. thats hella loads of coding my friend. you should rather offer to programmers to partner with you (you hold the intellectual property)

and last

6. Goodluck with that.

I don't generally play games of luck, I like to be able to blame myself when my bets lose, rather than fortune.
For those that like that sort of thing though, it sounds good.

I like the idea of more and more games having multiple players involved. Not sold on this, but like the train of thought  :D

The problem I see with your Game is, that ppl cant Variante their houseedge or Double up, which makes dicing still the best game

It looks more like PVP with 5 people. Might be a wait, if no one turns up.

The house can rig the game imo. Since I am assuming,there would be something like multiple rooms. And in each room 5 positions. The house will almost everytime, know the winning position, even if they give you the hash.
They could sit a bot in that position, and when the rest of the seats get filled, they will winning all the time. The provably fair part to give no one the advantage will be difficult.

The edge is too high. People will run as soon as they know this.

Yeah, this is a far better version of the idea. :)

Seems the op was just to explain the game than throwing out the percentage for the house. The hourse would only be able to charge less than 2% , which is on;y what will justify it.

Well, there are two limitations with the concept.
1) players don't like waiting for other players.
Which could be solved by making it player vs site.
2) Odds are fixed.

If we fix these two, it will either become a dice(fixing both)} or a lottery (that increases win amount with multiple players)(fixing 2)

The only advantage over those two is the house will earn a fixed fee.
