is this site dead or is it my ip?
The site is both dead and had been turned into a scam. IIRC, owner left with the funds a while back thanks for the update. that was one of my best sites though. hope someone picks up the layout idea and starts a new one Many alternatives to diggit have popped up, try out satoshimines.com or cryptogames.io. They are both provably fair bitcoin minesweeper games. Those ones are not like the diggit.io site's game. They're similar however are different in noticeable ways. For an alternative, you can look at Dexon's Sweepabit on Moneypot. That app is pretty much what diggit was before it went kaput. Satoshi mines is isometric, and you play each column with at least a mine in each of them, but diggit and Sweepabit are top down on a 5x5 grid where you choose the number of mines. A little different. Similar, but not the same. |

How do you view loyalty points of another user? The bet details show both the amount of loyalty points earned from the bet and their total for the month. Probably this way because of the non-registration process, but a little privacy is called for. |

I confirm receiving the payment. But you wagered 1.75 mBTC (which you yourself calculated as a fair bet), though paid only 1 mBTC actually. According to your verified message, you agreed to wager 1.75 mBTC against me...  So what about the remaining amount? I personally forgot about the .75. I was falsely remembering the week prior that I needed to check your activity on Tuesday to see if I had to pay 1 mBTC. No worries though: I'll pay by tonight if no personal problems arise. After all, I don't want to have anything happen over less than a dollar. EDIT: 18de1c361bcd5025f4c4eef2ba08f253b5550a31db7ceaa0c9243250c74bfac4 is the transaction of the remaining 0.00075. |

It's good to see that the Sweepabit game was changed into one that has at least some details altered... and in a unique way. Some things I have to mention: The top bar with the image of "Moneypot" has no redirect link. That should just be a simple fix. Slogan's fine, but shouldn't there be an apostrophe between the T and the S in "LET'S"? Also, check the indentation of "B" in "BAKING" - it's not completely aligned with the above font. (This is just a personal opinion, but I believe that in the betting history section, "Own Baked Donuts" would be better if changed to "Your Baked Donuts") Lastly, I understand that since it's using Dexon's code, SPACEBAR is used to end/begin games - however, since the page is vertically long (I run 1980x1080) there should either be a way to hide the betting history so that you don't jump down to the bottom every time you want to quickly bet, or prevent spacebar from scrolling down the page (canvas, IIRC? I'm not knowledgeable in web design coding)
Apart from that, the UI is nice. Faucet timer could be a decimal place shorter since you only lower it by .1 of a second each time, though. (and center it!) |

In reply to those who are begging OP for a signed message: This has already been talked of a couple times; potential lenders would already know of this and also know about https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1374054.msg13989280#msg13989280After OP requested it I've sent a unique random code to the PayPal email address he used to deal with me in November. He was able to PM that code.
Therefore I've verified he's managing the same email address. While this is not a definite proof his account was not hacked or changed owner it is very unlikely. Take it as what you will. Though, this is 6 months old. |

Is it a deal?
I agree with the deal. To further validate this: -----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I, actmyname, on this October 10th, 2016 (EST) agree to wagering 1.75 mBTC against deisik. If deisik does not become a Legendary member on Bitcointalk at 1008 activity or less, I will pay them 1.75 mBTC.

-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE----- I guess it's time to pay. As you can see, I'm still a Hero Member and my activity is at 1,008 points at the moment. But what did you really hope for? My BTC addy is in my profile page...

Selling forum accounts is allowed. Selling signatures is allowed
True. And also true. I don't understand why members disapprove of this.
However, both of those things lead to one common problem: spam in the forum. Lots and lots of spam. If you have multiple accounts, why would you bother posting quality content when you can just spew and generate as many pennies as you can? If signature campaigns are disabled, do you think account sales would be as high as they are right now? Probably not. (They might still be used for future scamming purposes, but that's probably it)
Explain to me why buying an account would be a good thing. There's only two reasons I can think of for why someone would want to purchase an account: to either scam or spam. |

if you take loan and you agree to pay interest on that then you should pay the loan with interest.
i havent paid the interest yet, i technically still have 2 weeks but i should be able to repay within two days
OP states that they're going to do just that. |

Furthermore, I doubt that any bitcoin gamblers are chess grandmasters.
Unlikely. However, the best players in those tournaments were always rated 2200+ on whatever game mode they were playing on, whether it be regular chess or crazyhouse. If great chess players really wanted money, then they would probably participate in larger chess tournaments for cash prizes (live chess over the board) or maybe the annual Millionaire Chess, in which this year the top section's first place prize was $30,000. However, I don't think that using such a complicated bot would be worth it on a small bitcoin chess site.
Wrong... you could always simply run a script that detects the moves that Stockfish outputs and play those, or manually put in the moves. First place for the next two tournaments is $15, and over 2 hours that means it's probably a better rate than some people grind for with their penny signature campaigns. As well, if you simply have more accounts, you seize all of the prize pool ($50). I'm not condoning this, just saying that it would be a possibility. Making a chess site for money is simply not feasible at all, fiat or bitcoin.
Well, it isn't a site where you gamble. These were free tournaments, for all to enter (with a pre-requisite of 20 games, but that's pretty much free). Think of it as a poker freeroll... where it's just a waste of time for anybody good enough to make REAL money from the game. |

I'm of course talking about: Sorry, no matches were found (Viewing all members is temporarily disabled) On this page!Is it a security issue? If not, then there's no point disabling if you can just search for the rank "e" and encompass all the ranks you would really want to search for (the bulk, anyway): N ewbi e, (Jr/Full/Sr/H ero) M emb er, L eg endary... (If this is a problem, then you can also disable searching that and the word Member and so on and so forth.) If you need to find Donators, VIPs, Staff or Admins, then you simply search for those: it's not a long list if they are what you're looking for anyway.
Theymos said here that it was taking a lot of resource, so he turned it off. Like I said, you can do basically the same thing by searching "e". Is it just to restrict users from accessing it every time they click on the page and not when they actually want to do it? |

There are a few chess playing sites which accept bitcoins and allow PvP matches. They have already been mentioned before, just read the thread from the beginning and you will not ask questions that have already been asked and most likely answered here. It is not very long and makes an interesting read by itself.
Though I still doubt anyone will be able to earn anything there.
Do you have the name of a few because i checked google and didn't find much. I'm not quite sure about the first site, I mean whether it accepts bitcoins (didn't investigate into this issue), but the second one seems to be accepting as well as paying prizes in bitcoins. I'd like to clarify this post, then. lichess.org is the site that the tournaments are hosted on, and the funds are provided by BitChess (where you may also find all the relevant information). So these sites are not separate, really. I think it's ending this week though: I only saw tournaments listings go up until this week, so if you're able to play quickly, it's the time to do so! They were running back in April of this year IIRC. |

But I guess on chess.com you will find Grand Masters level players perfectly capable of beating most of Chess bots.
Not everyone has access to advanced Chess programs and those available publicly probably can't beat top human players.
You are wrong twice and clearly have no idea what you are talking about. A publically accessible chess engine called Stockfish is capable of beating many grandmasters, even when at a disadvantage of one pawn. Everyone has access to this, and it's open-source. http://www.computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/404/On this page, the top 50 engines are above the world champion's peak rating. But please! Go on about how grandmasters are perfectly capable of beating most chess bots. |

Can you explain to me why you're advertising a 0% house edge when in reality that's not the case?You can choose to deduct whatever amount for the transaction fee - that is fine, but the amount should NOT be deducted from the bet amount! Only the return if the player wins!
For those of you who cannot see the math behind it, allow me to fetch a quote by myself: This means for a bet of minimum size (0.0005 BTC) the house edge is:
Win event [1/16]: return of 16 * 0.0003
Lose event: return of 0
ev: 0.0003
This means you lose 40% per bet - a 40% house edge on the minimum amount. That's pretty far from a 0% house edge, don't you think?
Even at the maximum bet: 1 BTC, there's still a house edge.
If you win, you are returned 15.9968 BTC.
This does correspond to a 0.02% house edge, which is far from the 40% earlier, but it's still not 0%.
(Though it's fair enough - this amount can correspond to a transaction fee, albeit it's a whopping 0.0032 BTC)
The deduction should only apply to the payout. Either do this, or stop advertising the website as as having 0% house edge.
If this were a website with 0% house edge, then when you bet 0.00060000 BTC and win, you should be returned 0.0094 (which is 0.0006*16-.0002) instead of the 0.0064 that you DO return. This example uses this bet: https://archive.is/Nd9EE#selection-4919.0-4919.3... and this transaction: https://archive.is/NX5AZDetails:  |

I just found this interesting option when I wandering the "Modify Profile"  I've just googled it and then I found this thread ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=868974.0) it turns out that this option is just for Hero Member and above. This is actually a nice, but I'm just wondering why is it only intended for Hero Member and above? Why not for every rank, or at least for a Full Member? Is it because Hero Member has spent more time in this place, or for any reason? Maybe the fact that the forum relies on ad revenue? I haven't finished with 2015 yet. 2014 is as follows: Income:
Donations: $114.78
Ads: $419,671.12
Expenses:
Fees & services: $10,886.03
Forum software project: $1,151,595.23
Other contractors: $39,297.05
Mod payments: $104,575.79
Bounties: $505.30 If it were for every rank, then there would be a serious decline in ad impressions. For Hero Members, it ensures that users have spent enough time on the forum to (probably) deserve the option to turn them off. I personally wouldn't do it - every little bit counts, after all.
Theoretically, this allows the forum to get at least 480 impressions [or a donation] from the members before they're allowed to disable the ads, though it's likely that most people post more (like myself). |

Has anyone noticed the ref link in the OP? Each link and picture ends with ?ref=4309 in the OP and I'm pretty sure that ref links aren't allowed to be use in a post. I'm pretty sure that putting them in the signature is fine though.
You might be pretty sure of that fact, but that's not what reality has to say about it: 4. No referral code (ref link) spam. [1]
Key word is spam. Linking it isn't really spam. Do a little bit of research... you have done so for some of the alt account linking, so why not here as well? |

Hey OP, it time to lock this thread as Lutpin decided to go amicably for his scam accusation and removed the negative trust too. You can check the update here.
