It's been two hours. Please refrain from bumping more than once per day.

(Since you asked for the loan you should get some profit)
Wait, what? I'd like a loan please.

+1 on this being a great idea and implementation

Just to make sure i understand correctly, in the 'stats' tab, in the long run, the "site is up" value should approach the value for "wagered" times the house take of 1%?
Right now that would be about 30,256BTC * .01 -> 302.56BTC.
Yes, however if the house is making 100 BTC less than expected, it's expected to always be 100 BTC down. On a graph, the actual profits line is expected to run parallel to the 1% of volume line. In practice it will swing wildly above and below its target.

Also, is there a way now (or a way planned) to track the history of the values in the 'stats' tab in an automated way?
See, dooglus! More people want GRAAAAPHS!

I wish my bank would charge me more on my checking account...Makes me feel like they're not going to just shut the doors and run off with my money.
A free search engine like Google is tracking you across the web and tailoring advertisements to you.
I fail to see how that's relevant to the topic at hand.

It's remarkable that COGNITIVE has done this well. IIRC, I first bought shares of COGNITIVE on the GLBSE at 0.4 BTC, when BTCUSD was $5. It's now $100, and COGNITIVE is still over 0.4 BTC.

I keep hearing "I showed this site to my friend who knows about investments and he tells me it's a scam because the commission of 1% is too low".
What kind of an argument is that?
488  Economy / Lending / Re: Quick Bitcoin Loan. 2 btc return 2.5 Bitcoins. Short turnaround!! on: June 29, 2013, 08:56:18 PM
Hey there guys,

I would like to request a Bitcoin loan from anyone interested. I would like to borrow 2 Btc and will be paying back 2.5 Btc by July 9 11:59PM.

PM if interested. Great profit for anyone who can afford to loan some extra BTC.

Let me know!!

Collateral ?

I collect Casascius coins. Worst comes to worse I can break one, but I won't have too, I have a good history. Just want a quick borrow for wallet.
I wonder how much round-trip shipping would cost for a casascius coin.

Where on your site does it say loan application fees are non refundable?
It's a fee, not a bond. Where does it say that Bitcoin TX fees are non refundable?
My application wasn't reviewed or processed. It was not approved nor declined. I asked about it on this forum and she found past posts and said she will not loan a scammer.
Sounds like it was declined.

The only way to prevent scamming in an anonymous world with no chargebacks is guilty until proved innocent.
492  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Just-Dice.com : Invest in 1% House Edge Dice Game on: June 29, 2013, 01:26:00 AM
The real question is why didn't he go for 501 BTC? Thus outstripping SDice
493  Economy / Lending / Re: 0.3 BTC Loan 10% on: June 29, 2013, 12:42:46 AM
Or you'll run away with the 0.3 BTC as soon as it happens?

Which one would be more profitable for you?

I would imagine getting this 1 bitcoin "prize" and repaying this loan with a positive loan transaction would be the most "profitable" for me, in this situation.
Not from a purely monetary standpoint

You know, you really can just say nothing at all.
1. You sound as exasperated as someone who's had to deal with this before
2. Yeah, or I could do the moral thing and warn people of potential scams, since the moderators won't.

Entities are escaped properly. Nice try though.

Hint: embed it somewhere else and take a screenshot, then post the screenshot and link it to YouTube. It will be convincing enough.

Lend me 0.85 BTC first -- I'll pay you back 1 BTC and then loan you 2BTC if you show me I can trust you.
You've gotta be kidding me

Oh god the agony the OP must feel for buying a 10,000 Bitcoin pizza.

Its people like him that got Bitcoin to become a currency so props to OP for that.

Hope it was some good pizza!

Do people who say things like this REALLY not realize how instrumental Lazlo's pizza for btc transaction was in establishing that btc actually had some real tangible value and wasn't just an experiment or plaything?  Without Lazlo stepping up btc may very well have faded into obscurity or at the very least taken much longer to gain traction as a valuable commodity/currency.  If you read through the entire thread - Laz makes it clear that he doesn't regret doing this and other people should stop worrying about the fact that he wasted or squandered his fortune.  In fact he did nothing of the sort - instead he made this whole cryptocurrency game we're all playing really take hold.  I, for one, thank him whole-heartedly
499  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: .1BTC if you guess my number. on: June 28, 2013, 03:23:58 PM
Maybe he is tricking us by really using binary, so my second guess is 8.
How is 8 binary? Do you mean powers of two (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, etc)?
1000 is 8 in big-endian binary.
500  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why does everyone keep calling them fees? They're not fees, they're BIDS! on: June 28, 2013, 03:18:52 PM
I was looking through satoshi's posts, and even he said something like "same inputs, same outputs, larger fee."

Unfortunately that doesn't work, because the fee is sum(inputs) - sum(outputs). The only way I can see it working is "same inputs (and one more), same outputs (and one more), larger fee," but that still doesn't seem as optimal as adding the "Respend" scenario to the default miner code.
