Hi, the link above is your license, so your site and bitcasino have the same owner??

Registered website(s)
www.bitcasino.io
www.sportsbet.io


Both sites use the coingaming platform and they handle the licensing. It's two separate (different ownership) companies however.

"Only the user's highest winning multi bet will be ranked, therefore a user can have only one multi bet ranked at any given time during the promotion."

You have to keep making multibets and the one with most winnings will count

You could basically wait until the last match, make the best multibet you can make and still win

it's not that it accumulates over time

Note: For me this is not an issue to have that much small odd difference but i am checking carefully just because you are obsessed with words. Smiley so your usage for the word "consistent" is not valid for Nitrogen either Smiley

Leave him, there will always be a hater of a site no matter how great things are. Even a top gambling site like primedice has haters. So far sportsbet should be considered as one of the best sportsbook site and quite user friendly. I dont need to wait for minutes just to get my withdrawal like I did in nitrogen

Thank you for the kind words! We are trying to be the best!

What's the latest guys? We want to make this transparent and fair in your eyes. Have we come to an agreement?

Although Darkstar has come up with a nice and simple method,there are still a few problems with it.Let me update this post later.I'm thinking of implementing one of the known and already proved Random Number Generator Algorithms.

Get your idea up there then we'll figure out what to do based on what the community says

The final promotional Lottery draw of 2016 Olympics is now over. Too bad I did not win anything this time.

Now I am waiting for sportsbet to settle my bets, because I still have 2 Olympic bets set as 'Pending'.

All pending bets are now settled. Can you please let me know if you are all set?


Yes, thank you. All my bets are not processed and settled.

I assume you meant "now" processed and settled Smiley

Everyone is good with this method from DarkStar_?

1. Publish the list of tickets and who has which ticket, a bit before the actual draw. Make sure that tickets are numbered.
2. Wait for a specific block hash for the drawing. Once the block comes, take the last few digits of the block hash (maybe 7?) and convert it to a decimal, by using it as a hexadecimal. Next, use the number that you get and apply modulus (number of tickets - 1) to that number. You should get a number between 0 and the number of tickets, minus one. Add one to the number, and you have your first winner.  You can get the other winners in other blocks, or if that takes too long, use the last 8 digits, than 9, e.t.c repeating the entire process I just outlined.

Here is an example of the method I outlined:

For this example, I will be using the block that was mined right before this post (block 426230). Normally, a block that hasn't been mined would be used, but for convenience, I will use an already mined one.
The has of the block 426230 is

Code:
000000000000000000dd8a7bb73190bd8574df5f18966347a2094049e28c8cab
The last 7 characters are 28c8cab, and when converted to a decimal gives 42765483. Here is my imaginary ticket list (published before the block is mined)

Code:
1: darkstar
2: person2
3: person3
4: person4
5: person5
42765483 % 4 gives 3. 3+1 = 4, so person 4 would have won the 1 BTC prize in this case.

I see the EPL leaderboard is updated already, but seems that it is only updated for the top positions only. I have won some mbtc last Saturday but my point is still the same with the last week update. Means that my winning last Saturday is not count towards the leaderboard? Or perhaps the update is not finished yet?

Should be all updated

Am ok with this method.

In my opinion now it's needed a clear specification on how this method will go on for all the prizes paid (26 places if I remember correctly)

It has the features needed to silence all the controversy and speculations that have been raised (also by me to be honest) : fairness and trasparency.

This is way better than the rudimental one I suggested (video recording of random.org draw).


How does everyone else feel about this method?

Let's try not to attack each other and figure out how we can make the lottery system more transparent, fun and fair in everyone's eyes.

Once we find a solution the majority agree on, we'll make it a reality.
2533  Economy / Gambling / Re: SPORTSBET.IO - Place where you can bet with bitcoins on: August 21, 2016, 03:24:20 PM
+1 to the post above mine, But I think this should be done in the future with future lotteries because we don't want any delay or change in the lottery of tomorrow "and no changing to the block number too".

A big fan of the site and their betting options specially on live, keep doing great Smiley !

Agreed. We won't stop or slow down what we currently have. We'll build this in parallel
2534  Economy / Gambling / Re: SPORTSBET.IO - Place where you can bet with bitcoins on: August 21, 2016, 03:17:41 PM
Coding illitterate here.
Imo you should just assign a progressive number to every ticket issued and display a page , costantly updated , with players name and respective tickets' ID received.

Then just use sites like random.org to draw winners and record a video of the drawings.

PS: heard there is grammar police around....if there are mistakes in this post they are due to my cell phone automatic corrector  Tongue

We want to make sure WHATEVER we go with, the community agrees it's fair and transparent. So let's get a consensus.

Regarding live video drarwing, this isn’t very efficient, we want an automated provably fair lottery, like we tried to build!

You cant make everyone happy at the same time. There will always be someone that put a disgrace at your sites no matter how hard you try, it is part of the process and people know that this site is honest though. Well I kinda agree with darkstar's idea however I would like to propose to wait for the blocks that will be mined around 6 hours after the countdown of the raffle stop to prevent something like  the previous incident of the drawing starts first before the countdown ended

PS : Im one of the few winners from the past lottery and Im happy with it



As long as we can get a majority that agree. I know we can't make everyone happy, but we damn sure want to try!
2535  Economy / Gambling / Re: SPORTSBET.IO - Place where you can bet with bitcoins on: August 21, 2016, 03:08:13 PM
It is indeed far from the reality, so far I got around 200 mbtc of profit only from the badminton olympics game and of course my bet is not 1 mbtc otherwise I wont be able to get that amount, well he can go figure it himself that. Lotteries is not the only think that keep this sites alive, it is one of the sportsbooks that stand out quite high here
*Thing. [get your grammar right before coming up with useless lines]

This website is nothing but a scam run by BTC-Agency [Antonio] like their other grand kids,bitcasino/vegacasino.Directbet and Nitrogen sports are 1000 times better than this crap.Fooling users with fake lotteries and odds lesser than every other site in its domain.I'm about to post a long explanation why their lottery is fake and not based on the blocks as they've put it.I'm just losing my mind over the fact,how they try their best to make up stuff and convince people its all fair.
I never thought I'd see better odds and directbet in the same sentence. Have you even checked out their odds, and compared? Sportsbet.io is better a lot of the time, since they operate on a lesser margin compared the DirectBet.

The Sportsbet.io players, we are going to try something no one has ever tried before.

Due to players not thinking our new lottery is provably fair, we are looking for help from this community. We want lotteries and we want it to be crystal clear and externally verifiable that it's provably fair.

Are their any aspiring coders on here who would like to build it for us?

We will pay for the complete dev costs. If the community can come together and decide what it would take for the lottery to be proven fair and get it spec'd out and coded up the way you want to see it.

If you are NOT a coder or no coders step up, PLEASE spec out exactly what needs to be done and we will then get it programmed ourselves. Let's start the discussions!
Again, see my previous posts. I'll restate it again, with some changes that would probably be easier in this post:

1. Publish the list of tickets and who has which ticket, a bit before the actual draw. Make sure that tickets are numbered.
2. Wait for a specific block hash for the drawing. Once the block comes, take the last few digits of the block hash (maybe 7?) and convert it to a decimal, by using it as a hexadecimal. Next, use the number that you get and apply modulus (number of tickets - 1) to that number. You should get a number between 0 and the number of tickets, minus one. Add one to the number, and you have your first winner.  You can get the other winners in other blocks, or if that takes too long, use the last 8 digits, than 9, e.t.c repeating the entire process I just outlined.

Honestly, did you even read my previous posts? If you don't understand it, I will give an example later.


if everyone agrees with your example and that this would be put an end to the debate, then yes! Let's proceed.

Let's see what the rest of the community says

How long does the olympic bets to be settled? Some of my bets that I placed few days ago still not settled I know some of them have lost already.

You should contact their Live Chat if some bets are stuck. It will get solved pretty fast then.
Already talked with their live support.
Thanks for the suggestion.


Can you confirm all your bets were settled now?
2540  Economy / Gambling / Re: SPORTSBET.IO - Place where you can bet with bitcoins on: August 16, 2016, 09:41:38 PM
Compiling a list and asking what we can do with the rest of the team.

Thank you for your feedback.
