Attempt to bet on a game -> "Sorry the odds for this bet has changed. " -> refresh page, odds still appear the same -> attempt to bet -> "Sorry the odds for this bet has changed. "

Happening for example on Roma vs. Cagliari at the time of this post.

EDIT: In fact, happening for many football (soccer) matches at the moment.

I'd like to participate when available.

1. Fair enough, that appears to be how counterparty works. Note that there are betting exchanges, such as matchbook.com, that offer 1% fee on net profit. Even exchanges that offer 2% fee on net profit, such as smarkets.com, are better for the bettor for odds less than a certain threshold.
2. I see you've added it, thanks, as that's crucial when the site doesn't have that much liquidity and you are just the ones creating most of the odds. But I would just like to confirm: the amounts below the odds for LAYING are supposed to represent the BACKER's stake, not the layer's risk. Is that the way it is?
4. I'm not sure how that addresses what I wrote. I realize you automatically convert BTC to XCP, but betting, as far as the user is concerned, are in no way instant and in fact take whole minutes to register.

A new question regarding the new feature you introduced: what is the benefit to being an "oracle"?

Lastly, when attempting to bet using BTC I see this: "Your winnings and any unmatched part of your bet, will be sent as is, in XCP, to your bitcoin payout address. Next time you place a bet, you will be able to use them to bet safe without depositing". I don't understand how this works. How do you send XCP to my BTC address?

How about betting on a sportsbook that has 10%+ margin?

1. Why is the fee taken from the matched amount and not from the net profit like other exchanges?
2. Why am I unable to see the amounts in the "view market"?
3. It claims that some BTC addresses are invalid even though they clearly are not.
4. Your signature claims "instant bets" even though as far as I understand bets have to enter the blockchain (a matter of minutes) first.

Can you provide some documentation of said interaction with them?

I would like to see the whole XCP/Counterparty abstracted away using this vennd service. Obviously, you also need more matches.
Also, I don't really understand the time differentials involved. How long does it take for bets to be active (i.e enter the blockchain), and how can one overcome the fact that the bets aren't instant and that the odds you say may not reflect the real odds when the transaction enters the blockchain.

Can I buy BTC your through my Skrill? What would I need for that?

Around 0.4
It's weird because I think I was one of their few pretty active players and I think they put more effort into everything than to just scam for a bitcoin or two.

Around 2 weeks have passed without any support interaction...I'm not sure what to think anymore.

How do they make money then?

How does it actually work though? How do you bet on fiat books through them? How much does the intermediary (asianconnect) charge you?
Perhaps you can explain the model/add a few screenshots, leancuisine

A week without any contact is absolutely unacceptable.
There is a withdrawal pending on my account (someone hacked me) for a week now, which I would like to CANCEL (I sent a support message the same day).

Fairlay - 5
I had a very unique experience with this site: Around a week ago, my computer was infected with a trojan that presumably stole all my sessions and cookies. The attacker proceeded to sift through my various online accounts and requested withdrawals to his address on all my bitcoin-related accounts; I had around 2BTC on fairlay. When I noticed this the next day, I immediately sent an email to Fairlay asking not to process the withdrawal. I received an email back stating that the withdrawal would not be sent. Unfortunately, likely through a miscommunication or the like, the withdrawal did go through and the attacker received my 2BTC, I was really devastated. To my surprise however, after I emailed support about this, the owner of the site claimed responsibility for the lack of miscommunication and completely reimbursed me the 2BTC, out of his own pocket. So that should tell you how they treat their customers
Otherwise, I like the site. In general I like the idea of a bitcoin betting exchange. In addition, the commission is really low (2% on net winnings), and the interface is really clean and user friendly.

Thanks, what was worrying was the lack of communication for a few days, esp when a few people have reported withdrawals not coming out.

My support message from around a week ago, where I requested to have a bet from the 17th settled, has still not been dealt with.

The site looks quite barren and lacking in information considering the claim it has been in development since Feb 2013. Basic info such as commission structure is lacking.
Also the American jargon and style everywhere is quite off-putting and confusing for what I assume will be the majority of your audience.

The 1.67 refers to what the backer gets. If you lay over at 1.67 and backer bets 100usd then if it's over you get the 100usd and if it's under you lose 67usd, leaving you with a net of 33 usd left.
It's raw because because it doesn't take into account the 5% profit commission.

Laying 1.67 gives raw back odds of around 2.49, so I guess it would be slightly better to back at 2.5, but not anything dramatic.
EDIT: It could be that your confusion comes from the fact that you haven't realized that 1.67 is the BACKER's odds, not the LAYER's

If you back under at 2.5 and back over at 1.64 with an equal potential win, then your expected result is a loss, if that's what you're asking.
