Giveaways have never been profitable for us at all - Vast majority of new sign ups don't do anything. We really don't see it as a marketing tool, more or less a way to try and get rid of the whole negativity based around gambling in the Bitcoin scene - It's more of something we do to help push a better outlook on gambling as a whole from the Bitcoin community.

Not to mention it's a lot of fun seeing messages from appreciative people!

All have been credited now!

Great job everyone! Entries are getting better and better

Yep, make as many entries as you like! It's probably best to focus he majority of your time on creating one great piece of work opposed to many average ones

So far some nice entries have been submitted! Looking forward to seeing what else is to come - Keep up the creativity!

Updated the first post with a link to some useful graphics including .Ai  & .eps files for the logo.

I believe this has something to do with the new Bitcoind version we recently installed. I forwarded this to our dev however to see if it's an issue on our end and hopefully can ensure it doesn't occur again.

Thanks for the feedback!

Last chance to get in guys!

Great video but there's a lot of spelling mistakes and such. You should fix those up. For example "Players" not "Payers" and "Provably fair" not "Probably fair". Maybe ask someone in Primedice chat to proof read it for you and go over all mistakes. Great video though, loved it.

As for all the other entries some are looking great! It's been barely a day and some of the stuff is very impressive. It's good fun seeing everyone getting involved in a competition like this. As someone also mentioned above even if you don't win (Which is sort of hard since there's over 25 winners!) it's great practice!

Still open guys! Top 100 replies will receive prizes. A lot of terrible replies by obvious forum farmers so get on in

Simply fill out the form in the OP.

Still looking, pay is very competitive and will vary on skill level.

Another giveaway here guys! Get in quick

Should be a lot of fun, can't wait to judge the winners.

Primedice is hosting another creative competition. The last one was a great success with over 100 entree's & $1000's of BTC given away!

Edit: For Youtube video's, the likes/dislikes the video receive will not affect the outcomes. Videos with more dislikes & likes (The combined amount, not simply the amount of likes) will usually be considered better community feedback. We noticed in the last competition people thought dislike botting others videos will give them a higher chance of winning - this is NOT the case and will only actually HELP your competition out most likely .

What should the video have in it?

Anything Primedice related! Be creative. Here's some examples off the top of my head:

 - Lucky betting sequences
 - Lucky faucet runs
 - Promotional/advertisement video
 - Information or guides on how to play Primedice
 - A review or overview of Primedice
 - Fun or funny chat moments
 - Maybe even a bit of all the above?

Here's some examples of some Primedice relate videos, including winners form our last competition.

Good luck everyone and have fun!

We'd like to find an extra person to help us out in creating a few games (think pinball) and will pay accordingly, hourly or lump sum. Time and schedule is flexible and we ask for a generally "part-time job" style of focus.
 
What we would ask for you to do is to create a 2D game using HTML5 provided features like Canvas. It will have animations, sound and reasonable browser compatibility. We want someone who has preferably made games before or has a proven track record. You should be comfortable with making API requests to get information such as game outcome. You can use whatever tools you see fit to create a game within reasonable bounds, as long as the game is lightweight and works decently across browsers.
 
Please PM us relevant experience info with examples of things you've made.

A ~one second roll is pretty reasonable on a dust sized bet. I don't see how this would negatively impact anyone unless you were trying to do millions and millions of dust rolls. The vast majority of hosting costs come from faucet players currently and this would only increase if we were to remove the delay entirely on those bets.

This has nothing to do with being a whale. PD gets over 13,000,000 rolls daily and the majority of these come from the faucet. Every single dust sized roll (many many fractions of a penny) have to be added to our DB and all of the provably fair information has to be stored and accessible as well.This is a fair compromise between having to outright set a minimum bet and I think it's more than functional as each roll even when throttled will generally take a second or less.

Generally this type of delay will only effect users that are claiming from the faucet and betting those funds.
