site is down. google translate on the russian error message indicates the site was suspended.

kickme.to/goxkeygen doesn't work anymore. It now just serves a link to a google doc.

Why the change in captcha providers? The new captcha, minteye, has recently been shown to be defeated with little effort, making it simple to abuse with a bot.
|
|
|
Suggestion to admin: don't allow the use of proxy servers. Some users are abusing them and creating multiple accounts, even using multiple accounts at the same time. That's probably to avoid playing real people, since there a so few of them.

I wouldn't remove reCAPTCHA before you have a really good solution (I don't know any). If your solution isn't good enough people will write bots again, CoinAd will loose money, you have to cut the prize size(s) again and a lot of the users will not use it anymore. My advise is: Don't remove reCAPTCHA even if these images are hard to solve sometimes.
If I don't land on a larger prize, I don't even bother to fill in the captcha for the small default prize because it's not even worth my time. And I'm guessing that's when most people will be receptive to clicking on ads, after they've finished refreshing the page many times and submitted the form. So a captcha that's too much effort for a human will also decrease the ad revenue. Coinvisitor.com just went through a similar captcha adjustment. They had a sane captcha, then some joker said he could bot it, coinvisitor over-reacted by making it impossible to solve by humans and bots, then eventually reverted back to something saner after enough people complained.

Looks like the sites is nonfunctional now. The site loads, but doesn't allow logging in or signing up, so can't play.

The contests are less frequent now, simply because it's not a very effective marketing tool.
How often is "less frequent", once every few hours or once a day? When the contests were every ten minutes, people would wait around on the site for them. But now there's practically nobody playing at all. 1 or 2 people waiting for contests that seem to never happen, and the jackpots aren't changing and the chat doesn't announce any wins, so it looks like nobody's playing. I think the major dropoff in users can be attributed to the recent 2 week "outage". You might want to add a prominent message banner next time there is a problem, so frustrated users don't abandon the site.

Is the thread title still accurate? I was logged in for 2 hours and didn't see any contests.

It would probably also be a good idea to try to limit the resulting transaction size, considering the latest commit to the bitcoin source decreases the allowed size from 250KB to 100KB: http://git.io/1rNpZw.

the support ticket system lost some e-mails. if you sent to help@luckco.in and did not get a reply, please re-send now Can you please update us on the withdrawal issue. I added a comment on the github ticket and also included the comment a few posts back.

Problems solved (added a lot of disk space for the block chain) and re-started the website
I added the following to the github ticket, but it doesn't allow users to reopen tickets, so not sure if you'll see it there: This was actually never fixed. after you closed the ticket, the interface pretended to allow withdrawals, then eventually showed a timeout error. Because you said the solution required a disk upgrade, I assumed this was because the blockchain needed to be updated on the new disk, but now withdrawals are returning ECONNREFUSED error again. So the bitcoin server is still having problems.

unfortunately i cant code in perl, are you planing to complete it?
It turns out the last statement works as is. I didn't test it before because I assumed I had to translate it also. So the only statements I needed to change are in my above post.

netlookup.se is paying out again.
It's only giving out a single satoshi...
|
|

Haven't been able to withdraw for 4 days, and now the website is down, so can't even play.

bitcoind. it uses much less memory and cpu.

I think the issue is that there are many versions of sed and it's hard to maintain portability between the versions. Even replacing sed with gsed (I'm on a Mac) didn't help here. But after translating to perl I got reasonable results. I haven't translated the last call to sed yet. # addrs=$(echo $* | sed "s/^/[\"/;s/ /\",\"/g;s/\$/\"]/") addrs=$(echo $* | perl -ne 'printf "[%s]", join ",", map qq("$_"), split " "') # total=$(bitcoind listunspent $minconfirm 21000000 "$addrs" | grep amount | sed "s/.*: //;s/,//" | tr "\n" "+" | sed "s/+\$/\n/") total=$( bitcoind listunspent $minconfirm 21000000 "$addrs" \ | perl -ne '($a)=/^\s*"amount" : (\d+\.\d+),$/; $a||next;$sum+=$a } END {print $sum' )

Have you tried BitVisitor, CoinTube, or EarnFreeBitCoins? I used all those when I was getting started with BitCoin, and they always paid out pretty quick. Haven't used them in quite some time though.
EarnFreeBitCoinsBitcoin4You.net claims to pay out every 24 hours, but after spending weeks to reach the minimum payout value, they still haven't paid me going on 4 days now. Going to give it another few days before I report them on the main faucet thread. Edit: apologies to EarnFreeBitCoins, I meant to say Bitcoin4you.net.
