I thought the customary process was to report bugs and get a bounty from the site owner?  I know CF paid Wilco for some of his bug reports.  I understand wanting to be compensated for your expertise in helping the site, it just seems like there is a more constructive way.

I logged in and played thanks to user Jerk who graciously fronted me 10 bits.  Very different than dice games but good that I don't live near any real minefields as I developed a talent for hitting mines on my first click.

I liked the investor list and the fact that anyone can use multiples of risk if they want.  And despite stunna's warnings, I like investment, but agree it is a risk and agree YOU give up most of the profits.
I liked the ability to send bits to other users in chat, you may want to put how you do that in the FAQ as I just stumbled upon it.  Beware beggars though.  They can ruin chat.  If you can't monitor the chat have some mods that can ban beggars.
I liked the idea of spectators and the ability to block them.
Lots of sites allow you to save a "secret link" rather than set a user/password.  You may want to consider this for people just checking out the site.
You may want to allow a "play money" option, at least early on so people can get the feel for the payouts of the game.  You may also want to alter the payout number from amount mined to amount won as at first I was confused if I had to "work back up" to my initial bet.  Turns out I didn't.

Good luck with your site!

There were a lot of pop ups but I was happy to participate.  I've seen similar claims made in the past, given how often experts are wrong, why not?

It doesn't look like he's going to make it back by the 9th.  While he may end the broad campaign - visibility here is good - I hope he'll continue it in at least a shadow mode for people who play on the site. 

I hope he is reaching a good return, if I was higher level I would want in on this campaign, it is very generous.

Thanks for improving the trust system!  Can I change my current trust feedback from one rating to another?  I see delete but not "edit" when I go to revisit my rating.

Thanks!

No.  We'll be lucky if it makes it back to 1000 USD.  I am so sad that bitcoin has not rallied or at least stayed even this year.  Maybe we will get a big year end price move up like last year.

He's back down to 1200.  I just don't get it, why keep going?  Is there really that much more he can do with 1,317 BTC than he can do with 1,293?  I was worried for Stunna until I realized this guy might not walk away a winner.

One of the nicer take downs that applies to a lot of posts on this board.

Maybe require at least a click through page of "how things work" during the account registration process?

This is legit, but yes, there is no on site way to get a starting stake to reach level 1.  You only have to bet a total of 10,001 redd, so 98% is your friend.

This is really well put and I think EarthBound is probably the "happy model" for what you expected from the faucet.  End faucet abuse and the support spam that goes with it, not the faucet.

Thanks for Primedice!

I wish you luck, seriously.

However, most people think premined coins are virtual scams, and this seems to be premined by open invitation, which I guess is sort of interesting.  No one can accuse you of just allowing in your friends and sock puppets.

But the whole give up your phone number to get coins is just going to be a total deal killer.  I think you'll be hard pressed to get anyone to give that up for any amount of nothing that you can offer them - which is basically what free coins will be at an early stage.

However, there is a community building around the beta test over on the dice.me family of sites.  It's a start!

Wait a minute, I thought China banned bitcoin!    

Wasn't that the excuse for bitcoin dropping earlier in the year?  Now they are making thousands of fake ones?

I can see how it's possible, but we wont know until there is a run on one of the exchanges.  I can only imagine the bad fallout that will result from one of the leading Chinese exchanges blowing up in such a spectacular and corrupt manner.  So more bad for bitcoin.

HYIP = High Yield Investment Program; as others have noted, a very common scam wrapper, almost always a ponzi

Cloud Mining = buying mining power from others.  As Markov noted, almost impossible to make money, though very popular.  Can also be a scam wrapper.

Just use satoshi, so much easier. mBTC = 100K satoshi uBTC = 100 satoshi

With WoW heavily invested, AK having made a few raids (some successful and some not) and dooglus* stopping by, maybe the dice.me family of sites will make it to the next level after all!

*could have been an imposter, but not sure what the point would be

I caught one or two of the rains and it was a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, it looks like some of the whales such as AK and ScryptHasher are losing faith as well as coins at the site.  The latter was especially key in getting people up and going on the reddcoin sister site.

Thanks to ScryptHasher I joined the site and the rains were impressive.  He also helped new users out by giving them 10K Reddcoin so they could get to level 1 and actually get the rain.  If the site takes off thanks to what happened 24 hours ago, you owe him a lot of thanks.

While I was impressed and grateful I think there are lots of opportunities to improve your "chain" of sites.  I'd add a bet all button.  Not that I often bet all of my coins, but it can help if you want to martingale, you can bet all and then hit one half six, ten, or twelve times (or whatever) to see how long of a loss streak you'll be able to survive.

I would also add divest all and invest all.  Since investment is constantly changing it is hard to type in exactly how many coins you have invested.  When I gamble, I want to divest my coins so I'm not shooting against myself.

I do appreciate the clearly laid out levels.  At least there is little spam in chat.

I transferred in some doge and gambled up to level one.  However, your chat seems broken.  Lots of times I can't post to it even after logging out and back in, closing browser, etc.  I've missed several faucet chances.  I like what you are trying to do, but it does not seem to be working consistently right now.

Very interesting, thanks for explaining.  I assume it will not rain on 0 level payers, correct?

I noticed that the "players online" counter was not working, I guess because of the work going in to merging the systems. 

How is your system going to handle all those difference currencies?  Is it just a merged chat between your dice sites or are you going to go to a multiwallet type system like Peerbet has?

Right now chat is not working for me at all, but I assume that's due to the work you are doing merging the systems.

If I am on at midnight I look forward to the trivia!  Thank you!

I registered an account.  I miss doge-dice and your site looks like it might scratch that itch.  Your site looks nice though the font on the chat is a little small. 

I don't understand the point of the faucet.  You can't get it until you've gambled 10K doge, so it is obviously not to "try the site out."  Is it a reward for chatting or loyal users or what?  I'm not complaining, I'm just asking as I have not seen that kind of set up before.  I can see how it would prevent abuse.

I wish you and your site the best.
