Hi there,
i've started Lucky-BTC, which is an alternative to SatoshiDice.
You can pay in a fixed ticket price in a pool and each transaction getting a random number.
If the number is one of the pools numbers, you win the pool size.
The payments reaching Lucky-BTC if they are getting into to Blockchain.

You should try something like a pre generated hash to verify that you are indeed using a random number. Like what satoshidice did: http://satoshidice.com/secrets.php
I think that's a better way if i combine processing time, blocknumber and a part of the transaction id to generate the number.
What did you mean?
I just meant that you'll need something that proves the results are actually pseudo-random, not manipulated by the system(for example the odds could be lesser if the person were betting a higher amount of money?). Satoshidice uses a pregenerated list of numbers, and he publishes the hashes before anyone plays to prove that the results were actually legit.
Now it's all transaction and block based.
