There was an issue where 90 investors couldn't view their investment log on the history tab.  It's fixed now.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

And again.  Should be back in 15 minutes max.

3 questions:

How are you going to prevent people changing their predictions?

Can people send 0.10 BTC in a single transaction, say, and make 10 selections?

Can Deb and I play?

It's a new month...  The -3k from last month isn't considered in the profits from 'this month'.

Edit: ah.  I didn't update the start position on the graph, so it shows last month too.  Next graph will fix that.

That's correct.  Highest bid at midnight UTC each Sunday gets the ad for the week, subject to approval of the ad.  Please provide 468x60 banner and URL to speed uploading of your successful bid.

It doesn't need to be just one server, and nobody needs to know the servers' identities.

"auto-send" and "cold wallet" don't really fit together very well.  If it's possible to access a wallet without human interaction then it's not "cold".  There needs to be a trusted human involved in the process, to walk the keys across an air-gap.

It's automatically sent if I don't provide evidence of being alive for a preset period of time.  So all the above cases would be equivalent to being dead.  It does mean investors have to wait for the preset time period to expire.  The duration of that depends upon which of my trusted third parties die / get kidnapped / develop Alzheimers with me, since the messages will be released to each in turn at staggered delays.

I'm being vague on purpose.  Sometimes security through obscurity is good.

Just under 50%?

What a nice man.

Hey.

Risks:

* Someone might get lucky and win a significant chunk of it; it has happened in the past, and we didn't fully recover yet.  House profit is only 0.38% of wagered, when the edge (and so expected profit) is 1%
* I could be running a scam, waiting for the cold wallet to reach my target amount and then run off.  I won't, but you can't know that.
* I have access to the server seeds.  It means I can bet under a false name whenever I choose, and know my rolls ahead of time.  I can slowly bleed the bankroll dry and you'll think it's just bad luck (see point 1).  I only ever play under the name 'dooglus', and then only for small stakes, and never look to see what my rolls are going to be ahead of time.  But again, you have to take my word for that.
* The server could be compromised and an attacker could gain access to the seeds.  See previous point.
* The 'lucky' number generation code could be found to be predictable, allowing players to win.
* I could get hit by a bus and have the cold wallet passphrase die with me.
* Probably more that I'm not thinking of.

The servers are regularly backed up and kept updated with the latest security patches.  In the event of shutdown by government, I'll refund balances to your emergency withdrawal address (set it in the 'account' tab).  In the event of my death, an encrypted message will be dispatched to trusted third parties giving them the required codes and instructions to refund balances.

I tried the new one.  It still puts the bet buttons on a new line.  In fact it's a little worse now.  It only used to do that if I zoomed in, but now it does it at 100% zoom too:



(chromium on linux)

Overall I like the new design.  It just has a few wrinkles to iron out.  

That is the question.

I wonder what the answer is!

I wonder if there would be any interest in a "high roller" version of the site where the house edge is 5%, but all big players get shipped luxury items for playing. 

Thanks for your support.

I tried it, and it looks quite good to me.

I have a problem with the roll buttons being on a separate line from the input fields at the zoom level I use:
