Hello, we are currently working on many new things for everyone to enjoy, I wanted to just remind players that tomorrow is the monthly raffle drawing and to make sure you save the % of raffle tickets you want to submit. If you do not set the percentage and hit save then your raffle tickets will just carry over to next months raffle prize. Thank you and have a great week everyone.

Can you give a tip as to how many tickets are being submitted atm? I think having a view of "pending" would be great in the future, to know your chances of winning.

It looks like there will be a little more than 29000 raffle tickets submitted (unless people change their settings now).

Winner will be drawn at 00:00 GMT, so about 1.5 hours from now.

Edit: I must have looked at the wrong date of my calendar. The winner will be drawn 24 hours from now, just after we hit July 1st. Sorry for the confusion.

Rain bot starts making bets (using a specified probability, such as 49.5%)
He will rain for x bets or until he's cycled through the 1 BTC
He will take whatever was won off of the bets and will transfer it to random chatters


The chatbot feature has been requested long ago but I guess its not suitable to have it right now as the site condition currently have less active chatter for the moment ( or this could lure in more people as people loves free satoshi(?) ). The idea to let rain bot wager is a good idea because with more wager it helps the site as well
Im a big fan of shiba and having "it" on chat will be great or some kinda bot with the almost the same function as shiba as it will be great to know about the current value of BTC in USD and some other currency or having it to troll the other player while Im bored

P.S : some whale is having some action on the house atm



I forgot if this has been requested or not but could we have some pop up about players status? some command key like below will be great

Code:
/stats arallmuus



I love the idea of a stat command! And keep in mind that the rain bot is run by the players. The house doesn't give it money -- players send it tips and it will rain from that.

OK, so how does the bot determine who to tip? Is it purely random or is there some algorithm to it?

On some sites it's random based on bettors (i.e., it will pick 5 random names of the last 20 players that bet). Some will do it based on chatters (last 5 chatters, 5 random chatters from the last 30m, etc.). Really just depends on how the bot creator set it up. None of them are "official" -- they're all run by other players that usually take a portion of the tips (like 10%) before paying out the remainder.

All right, I'll talk to Bjorn about this and figure something out.

#127: Plinko rain-bets do not properly update balance

By this, do you mean when you spam bets and then wait for the Plinko chips to all fall, or is there an actual "rain" feature (i.e., like JD and other sites have, where you can put in a "rain" bet and the winnings will be split among active players)?

OK, I guess I don't know what a "rain" bet really is. For me (and for BetterBets) it means the ability to launch multiple balls/discs within a short interval (ie: you can launch a new ball every 25 msec).
246  Economy / Gambling / Re: BetterBets.io - Bitcoin Casino ★DICE★HORSE RACING★Introducing NEW Power PLINKO! on: June 28, 2015, 08:05:27 PM
Hi Everybody,

we just pushed a new version to production. The details can (as usual) be found in our dev post (2nd post of this thread). The highlights are as follows:

#133: Automatically save and restore Plinko settings
#132: Plinko sometimes returns all zero payouts
#131: Plinko bets should first subtract wager and then add winnings in 2 separate steps
#90: Chat needs to keep better focus upon entering message

Also, faucet errors should now be gone for good. In another piece of good news, we're actually ahead of future MoneyPot requirements with regards to bet submitting which means that when their API adds another requirement in the near future, we're all set.

Enjoy and play it safe.

Dammit missed happy hour with plinko how was it? Any better or same?

I don't know (I was coding at the time); I'm sure it was good.

On a sidenote: we processed almost 10K Plinko bets in the first 24 hours which seems like a really good start.

Hi Bjorn. I already tested your new games, it is easy to get the multiply there but I think there is some kind of bug, when I spam rain bet, he result doesnt come out so I can't check my result which number do I hit

Can you please be more precise? What do you mean by "the result doesn't come out" and "I can't check my result which number do I hit"? Thanks ...  Wink

Edit: Oh, I see what you mean ... you mean that balance doesn't get updated? If so, yes, that's a bug.

If you mean something else please specify.

That's what he meant I believe. He logged the rolls for you as well (22984651; 22984355; 22982854) in case you want to evaluate it further.

Also, while I'm at it. Can you make it to where when chatting, hotkeys are disabled? Ran into an issue earlier that -- luckily I wasn't betting too much -- could have been detrimental. When chatting, something happened and the chat box quit responding, so I accidentally (while typing) hit a hotkey that put the bet at maximum odds. I noticed it after a flood of red came up on my screen from all the losses.

Good suggestion, I'll see how to best fix that. Thanks for reporting.

NP, and thanks for keeping on top of reports, Smiley.

BTW, you should totallllllly hire me to edit your FAQs!

Do you use skype? If so, send me your SkypeID and I'll add you so we can talk. Thanks.

Looks hot, guys. Love the neon glow and the sparks. Reminds me of Geometry Wars. Smiley

Thanks, we put a lot of time and effort into coming up with a look we were happy with. It's nice to hear that other's appreciate the result.

i gave this place a chance tonight. a few positives i wanna point out for all you new guys out there looking for a place to gamble. for all the plinko lovers this game has some amazing features IMO. you can change your odds, the number of pins, and the slope(which im assuming means how fast the ball drops). basically instead of being stuck with set odds like the other plinko sites you have a chance to change things up. if you like plinko stop by and check out the place to see how it works. you may make your own luck n become a rich guy.

theres also a raffle feature here which seems pretty cool. for every 500 bets above 0 satoshis you get a raffle ticket towards their monthly prize. cant beat a chance at free money right?


1 bad thing i didnt like was only being able to bet one ball at a time on plinko. i was assured this is changing though.


im sure theres more i could say but its late and i didnt play around a ton. ill stop by the next couple days and see if i should add more to this.

Thank you for your suggestion. As you probably know, we take user input very seriously. As such, we'll investigate changing the code to accommodate this feature. More news on this in the near future.

Thank you for your input.

You asked for a Plinko rain feature, we delivered!


You can now launch multiple Plinko discs! After a 25 millisecond delay, you can click any of the 3 launch buttons again. Please note that the sliders to change odds are disabled until the last launched disc has dropped into a payout slot.

Please also note that depending on the power of your PC, launching a lot of disks may result in a animation stuttering as your CPU tries to keep up.

Reminder: we highly suggest you use Google Chrome to access our site, especially so if you want to play Plinko!

This is an awesome feature, Smiley. May also be helpful to set up a line, like:

I choose to launch 1000 of them, with a delay of 25ms. I can pick yellow/green/red, or have it like the dice to swap between them (such that I could make it do 5 green, 5 yellow, 5 red... and follow that cycle).

So in essence you want a basic plinko bot? Noted but no ETA yet.

Just tested the game, but I need to wait so long time till the wheel hit the payout (around a minute for each wheel)

Are you using firefox? firefox seems to be not responsive enough for the new plinkoo game (happened to me with firefox)

OK, I just tried the final Plinko version on Firefox, and it's basically unusable (even on my machine, which is a pretty nice one).

Everybody, if you're using Firefox to access our site, please give Chrome a try. It's (in my opinion) simply a better browser and for Javascript heavy sites like BetterBets, you'll notice a significant performance improvement.

Assuming you're running on a modern computer with enough RAM, everything on BetterBets should be working smoothly. If you're on an older computer, you may be out of luck (in the sense that they will be slow), especially for the horse and plinko games. Either way, use Chrome and you'll have a much better experience on BetterBets.

Why all coins has same color that is confusing to play plinko because there is no blue like coin color, i will suggest you to change the coin color as per bet line like green, orange and red, affiliate system will be nice one 10% of 1% the house edge is good.

It actually does change color in the very center of the wheel it's just kinda hard to see. I have been playing it 24 hours almost this is how I noticed it.

Bjorn I think affiliate will be good it will be abused but there will be bloggers who would very much like an affiliate bonus.

Yap you're right, the color of the bet is in the center of the wheel. And I think it will looks better if the color is full part of the wheel.
Just tested the game, but I need to wait so long time till the wheel hit the payout (around a minute for each wheel) even more if I move to another tabs while waiting, is it happened on your end?
One more thing, is there any options to do a rain bets on the plinko?

A minute is very slow; I just timed it on my machine and in it's default configuration (16 pins) the animation takes 10 seconds. The only reason I can think of that it would be that slow is that you have a very underpowered computer. Can you give me your computer stats?

Yes, when switch to another tab, the animation stops. There is not much I can do about that, since for canvas animations this is built into the browser. The reason for this is to conserve resources (CPU): since you may have many windows/tabs open with canvas animations, canvas only animates when the windows is visible. Otherwise background tabs might grind your machine to a hault.

Rain bets: looking into it.

Nice to see the new game "pliinko", should try this asap. Just opened it, but the payout tables is not clear when I set the # of pins http://prntscr.com/7l0myj . Is there any options to make it clear or make it bigger (something like full screen mode)?

Unfortunately not. However, if you move your mouse over the payout boxes, you'll see the exact odds written in white text in the top left corner of the plinko draw area. While not an ideal solution, it's the best we have right now.

Dear BetterBets players and friends,

as part of our 1-month anniversary we ran some statistical analytics on our database in order to get a more precise picture of where we stand and how things are developing. During these investigations we discovered a discrepancy which lead us to discover that our house edge calculations contained a rounding error which under certain circumstances would put our players at a disadvantage, especially so when gambling against very low (player) odds. We have spent the past few days altering our house-edge calculation code and running extensive tests to ensure that all bets will be conducted at a 1% house edge (during normal operations) and the appropriate house edge during Happy Hour and Luck Forging. We have pushed the new code into production and verified that it works as desired.

As soon as we receive a final list of affected users from MoneyPot.com, we will credit each affected user double the amount they lost due to these faulty calculations. The number of affected people is small, but given the different time zones of all parties involved, you should expect this compensation to reach your MoneyPot.com account within the next 24 hours. If you log into your account and notice you have more BTC than you logged off with, this is the reason why. Once again our most sincere apologies for this; we are committed to running a fair gambling site and will continue to bring out new features in an effort to become your favorite Bitcoin Casino.

I just wanted to give everybody an update on this: our database is churning through a multi-gigabyte table in order to get a list of all affected users and the exact amount of BTC we owe them. It took longer than expected to get the query right (it has to perform some on-the-fly calculations) and the actual execution of the query is significantly slower than we expected.

Once we have the list of people and the relevant amounts, we will refund everybody. Rest assured, this refund will happen and it will happen soon.

We appreciate your understanding in the meantime.

Hi Everybody,

the refunds have been deposited to the affected players' accounts.

We refunded 0.41478478 BTC to 29 players; this amount represents 2x the actuall amount our players were disadvantaged for. Once again, we apologize for the error in our mathematics and hope that this gesture underscores our commitment to be correct and accountable to our players and to provide a fair betting environment.

We would also like to note that the math was in our players' favor for some bets. For those bets, we absorbed the cost (as is only fair, as it was our mistake).

Hi there is some problem through the bet. See I made black mark. I set the total of 100k bets but it roll only around 50k bet the bets left is only around 10k. I think there is a bug or something. Please get this on your list  Grin

Noted on the Todo-list. Thanks for reporting.

Do you already know what's causing that? I've yet to have that happen yet... my rolls left - rolls made always = the total rolls.

Same here, that's why I'm a bit puzzled by this. I've never seen such miscounting before. I'll investigate and report back.

I wonder if he didn't accidentally change the number of rolls after it started. Or maybe it was based on seconds first and he clicked to move it over to rolls (I've done this, and that could cause it).

Yeah, I guess we should disable input fields while the bot is running to prevent such accidental reconfiguration.
