This is weird, I'm getting them back one at a time at exactly 10 minute intervals. An I caught in some type of filter? My bets of 5, 2, 2, 2 are still no-shows, blockchain shows they went through as normal to the Duce address and alot of confirmation but they have never processed and it's been 5 hours now =\ they are getting skipped over by newer bets.

Yeah my bets aren't even coming back in any type of recognizable order which is ironic because the first 4 were larger bets (for me anyway) and the ones I'm getting once every 10-20 minutes were placed way afterwards.

Thanks for looking into it, I wish there was a secondary set of bet wallets to split the load.

Is the server that processes the bets the same as the site is displayed from?

The bots kill this game for hoomans. Used to get responses in 1 second and you could actually see the history instead of just a flashing screen.

It wouldn't be so bad if I could at least see the transaction on DICE in the history. I get them instantly when they send them, it's that they are not being processed for 45+ minutes.

It's not even fun anymore, just stressful Sad
24  Economy / Gambling / Re: SatoshiDICE.com - The World's Most Popular Bitcoin Game on: February 09, 2013, 12:13:24 AM
I have bets over 2 hours old that have 10+ confirmations and the responses are coming in, but only 1 every 10-20 mins.

wtf is going on? I have fee set to .0005 so it shouldn't be related to that.

There is one address that is betting A TON every few seconds, probably botting and almost all the bets are 1+ btc.
It's almost like you're getting DDOS'd with bets.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I mess around on dice quite a bit but it's really getting so slow I don't think I'm going to be able to play anymore.

A couple weeks ago I could put in a bet, get a response in 5-10 seconds and go again. Lately it's been taking at least 5 mins for responses.
Even a 2-3 minute round trip really takes all the fun out of it and I don't think people will keep playing as much if it stays this way.

I had two orders, you funded one but not the other.
I received payment confirmation from ZipZap on both, as well as emails
saying the order was executed and paid on both of them as well.

My order status shows it was paid and it was completed and paid but it is incorrect.

Order: 25774b97-d6fb-4509-bc3c-bf6a42f88eef


Thanks.

I have a strange feeling that you are a bit hesitant about fielding your question publicly, feel free to PM me Tongue

Anyway, I'm still a little unclear... but if it helps answer your question, that ad is being served through the actual
double-click ad placement. There is nothing shady going on there at all. Inventory isn't always prioritized the way you would think because of unknown variables like impression capping or advertisers that have maxed out their daily budgets. In my opinion, there is nothing weird going on in this instance.

The idea you are talking about is certainly possible, and I can verify that it has been done. It's still not ideal. Metrics rule the land with this stuff and the ability to track is much more important and worth the extra cost. I don't know what type of product we are talking about here, but the traffic exchanges are such a cluster-fuck that if there is something you want to be able to run on double-click/google and can't get it through, you almost undoubtedly can (with a few obvious exceptions lol) by going through an exchange if you are persistent.

In terms of traffic holder, the sites that are redirecting you are getting paid for it. The way it works is not really shady at all, but some of the advertisers utilize it for nefarious activity.

27  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Anybody recognize this? on: February 07, 2013, 07:22:32 PM
Ah, now we're in my arena.

Do a search (lol) on "retargeting". This form of advertising doesn't require that you search for anything, the cookie is placed by the owner of a website that you visit so that they can directly market to you their own, or similar offers, anywhere you go on the web.

The fact that you saw it on that site and assumed BFL was shelling out $$$ to advertise there on an authority site is one of the main reasons I use it.

I'm extremely curious. I don't want you to disclose any proprietary information, just generic market overview.

Is there any generic information on how likely "behavioral retargeting" is going to happen because:

1) site owner does retarget
2) site owner uses a traffic retargeting service, eg. trafficholder
3) adware will retarget


Are you asking if the traffic provider extrapolates the data for their own use? Officially? No. In Reality? Probably.

Retargeting itself is a crude form of behavioral targeting, and can be somewhat accurate depending on the person managing the campaigns, but it's done a little bit backwards. Some big companies are doing it already at the scientific level and it is more or less automatic other than tweaks. On the non-giant-corporation front... I imagine eventually the 'little fish' marketing companies will be able to specifically target based on what a user "likes", but without them having explicitly said "yeah I like this" on sites like trafficholder and sitescout, and other more general behavioral patterns.

I may have misunderstood the question, feel free to clarify if that's the case.

I made a successful partial payment (i just paid what it said to pay) and the server was so jammed up I got an error when it tried to send me to the receipt page.

I don't know what happened with it, I didn't get any emails and I haven't been refunded the amount WalletBit collected from me.

You will have an extremely hard time finding one at any authorized dealer/retailer for less than $349.95 The dealer contract is very very strict about pricing, even the good old "price in cart" method is frowned upon.

I can get these for you if you want to pay in BTC, but I will still adhere to the pricing guidelines, no exceptions.

Why does it have to be written rails? So you can steal the money blame it on a hack and not send the 75% of the proceeds to the foundation.

Helping the bitcoin economy right here, investr your doing so well, keep up the great work LMAO

I take it you don't have much experience in rails? Also, rails is not a language, it's a framework.

36  Economy / Computer hardware / [WTB] Whole or Partial BFL ASIC Preorders (Guaranteed Profit, No guesswork!) on: February 05, 2013, 05:19:42 AM
Looking to buy your preordered BFL ASIC units. Jalapeņo, Little Single, or Single SC.

This is a perfect way to get known-margin, instant & guaranteed profit from your preorder without all the guesswork and no waiting to mine your initial investment back.

Sell me your whole order or hedge against your investment by selling me 1 or more units from a larger order.

This could possibly even result a completely "free" ASIC for you!

I will transact only with reputable individuals within the Continental US, you will ship the units to me overnight once you receive the from BFL. Payment via BTC or standard forms of USD transfer (Paypal, Certified Funds, Bank Wire, or Cash). Pricing is scaled based on the date of your order. I will not purchase units ordered after 12/12.

Please PM me if you have any preordered units that you would like to sell for a profit. If you have any questions feel free to post them here or contact me directly via PM.

39  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Blockchain.info wallet unusable for almost 36 hours now on: February 04, 2013, 05:35:46 AM
I got this sorted out after experimentation. Just in case anyone else ever gets themself in this situation here's how you fix it:

We'll call the locked up wallet: Wallet-X
Completely different wallet: Wallet-Y
We'll assume Wallet-X has only one address for sending/receiving.

1. Create 1-2 new addresses in Wallet-X

2. Send some BTC from Wallet-Y to one of the new Wallet-X addresses, wait for the transaction to confirm.

3. Send a little bit of the BTC back to Wallet-Y using the Custom transaction type in the following configuration:
    a.) Set FROM address to the NEW address that shows the BTC you just transferred
    b.) Set the TO address to your Wallet-Y
    c.) Set the CHANGE address to the original Wallet-X address that has the funds locked up.
    d.) Send the transaction and wait for it to confirm.

4. You should now be able to send the BTC that was previously locked up.

I don't know why it's neccesary to do it this way. You would assume that it would be the same as if you sent BTC directly to the original wallet address, but it only works if it comes back as CHANGE, not a direct transaction.

Yeah I PM'ed him on Friday but haven't heard back yet.

And I can see why there were a large amount of hashes there, but they would be related to my desktop client wallet, not the blockchain.info wallet receiving them, so I guess that is irrelevant.

Thanks for your input.
