hi NlNico iwas reading an old post on provably fair dice and tried to send you a message regarding faucethubs rambo dice to find out if its ever been verified because i can verify the rolled numbers with the hashed server seed they supply but when i try to verify the hashed seed using the sha system i think it was i cant get the hashed numbers to match up what faucethub shows is way different than what the sha system is showing and alot of people have been noticing loss/win ratio has exceedingly rose to definitely being almost purely to the house anyway was hoping to find out if anybody has ever verified that site as its run by mexicantarget who obviously ran a bitcoin gaming site while back that folded up any way i appreciate any response thank you so much happy trails Smiley

This forum thread is about bustadice.com. NLNico isn't affiliated with bustadice and probably won't see every comment here. If you want to get in touch with him, I recommend sending him a private message instead.




i triedto send him a private message but when i tried it said he doesnt accept from newbies to post on one of the threads he had recently posted in to ask him for a pm im new to the site so idk

But since there is no independent organization that oversees "provably fair" I think provably fair itself is a bulshit.
Well there are 2 things to consider here.



1. Implementation
First of all, most sites use (slightly) different implementations. IMO the "nonce method" is pretty much the best way, generally if the site uses this (like most popular dice sites), you can assume it's okay (especially for a dice site where you can bet both hi/lo.) Obviously ideally you would still check if they are doing everything technically correct, but this takes some knowledge.

Some implementations do different things, and might be not so good. If you don't have the technical knowledge to check this, luckily there are other individuals that do frequently check sites. For example, Rollin actually didn't have a perfect implementation that potentially could allow them cheating and they adjusted/improved it quickly after I posted about it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=687571.msg12122724#msg12122724 Another example, keepinquiet found out that PocketDice doesn't have a perfect implementation either that potentially could allow them cheating: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1077905.0 Unfortunately they still didn't improved this AFAIK (so IMO best to not play there :X)

So there is no 1 organization checking it, but there are several individuals checking it (mostly dooglus, RHavar, keepinquiet and me I think - but everyone with some technical knowledge can do this.) I personally do plan to test all popular websites and compare all of the implementations in a proper/fair way (so not like those bullshit "review" sites.) But it takes some time to do this hehe.



2. Actually verifying your bets
If we assume the implementation is good. Still you have to verify your bet results to ensure you have not been cheated. It's good to learn the basics of how provably fair works here: https://dicesites.com/provably-fair but even just using 1 of the verifiers on that page should be fine too. Provably fair is definitely not bullshit if you take a few minutes to verify your bet results.



was wondering if you have ever verified the Rambo Dice game on FaucetHub. If not is there anyway you or maybe somebody you know could look into ive verified the rolls that i get there but when i use SHA-256 to verify the hashed client seed its always different from what FaucetHub said was the hashed client side i mentioned this to one of the mods there and he said i must be mistaken. I appreciate your time just reading this message and if by chance you could send a reply as far as my concern that would be truly wonderful i dont want to keep putting money into something if its not fair at least.
