Well I know nitrogensports.eu has an active chat. But I didn't try any other sites besides betcoinsports (which doesn't have a chat), so I couldn't compare it to others Wink

Lol why would you lock funds on a gambling site as gambling addict :p but help from family/friends could be good. Could ask for mental help or get a 2 of 2 multisig addy for ur savings where ur friend/family needs to confirm any transaction. If you feel the need to gamble, send it to that address.

I was under the impression that he felt stuck and wanted to get some of his bitcoin back.  He won't be able to do this by continue betting, but he has a great chance at slowly recovering his losses by putting it on the winning side with a positive house edge while at the same time blocking himself from using those funds to gamble at a negative one.   

A huge part of gambling addiction is the feeling of being lost and hopeless; trying desperately any way you can to get back in the positive.  I was trying to provide a way that may help in that respect.
Ah, I thought you meant on Primedice (which doesn't have an "invest"/crowdfunding option.) "Investing" on a dice site can be good way to earn money, although there have been scams too (so it is with a different kind of risk I guess Wink) And if you do that as gamble addict, you must indeed make sure there is no way to gamble your balance (like you said.)

Jackpot:
Jackpot is back with a adjusted probability. With each bet 0.1% of the bet amount goes right into the jackpot. You hit the jackpot if your seed meets a certain criteria and you have wagered at least 0.0001 for this particular roll. The probability for this to happen is 1:1,048,575 and the exact algorithm is:
Code:
function isJackpotHit($serverSeed, $clientSeed, $incrementalNonce) {
    $seed = $serverSeed . '-' . $clientSeed . '-' . $incrementalNonce;
    return substr($seed, 0, 5) == '00000';
}
You are now just using the first 5 characters of the serverseed to check the jackpot. I assume you are missing the sha1 function.

I have been collecting stats for over a month and according to my graphs (see here), yesterday there were the most number of bets (in those 33 days.) So it looks like the removal of old bets really made the website faster Wink ~30,896,994 bets yesterday, nice! Smiley



PS: the latest graph point is close to 0 because 6 Dec just started - EST timezone.

.... you feel i cheated you or what? i dont understand how primedice can be provably fair and pvp not, it is clear that they use the same system.

This confuses me too?!

"To create roll numbers for PVP, the same process described above is used with a minor change. The server seed is your seed and the opponents seed is the client seed."

This means that if the last person is the house, they could cheat. Because they know already the opponent's seed and could generate an own seed that have a favorable outcome. My guess is that you couldn't be cheated if you are last to act and already see the HASH of the opponent's seed (is that possible? or you never see any hash?)

Either way, I personally do not think PD cheats. But it is right to say PVP is not really provably fair. I personally don't know a real solution to it.

i am reasonably confident that both of us were challenging and accepting during our betting sessions, so I was not consistently last to act. I did not consider this possibility. How would an oponent be able to see what seed i have set? even in theory?

Only if your opponent is the house. The house can obviously see what seed you use with PVP. This is different from normal play cuz normally u see a hash of the serverseed in advance.


Obviously PD is not cheating and I am sure they can make enough money the normal way. But just explaining.

1171  Economy / Gambling / Re: Back In Profit! Real Life, Live, House Bank Investment Comparison Table on: December 04, 2014, 05:03:21 AM
I am wondering what amounts you use to calculate "Bank turnover" (and therefor "Expected annual return".) I mean BitDice's BR has 2 big investors on 10x kelly. Their virtual bankroll is 4340. The 1 BTC investor's share is 1/4340 not 1/960. So I am not sure if you use 960 or 4340. It looks like 960 though, which would give x4.5 higher wrong results than the real expected results. With DiceNow it's the same.
1172  Economy / Gambling / Re: SatoshiDICE.com - The World's Most Popular Bitcoin Game on: December 04, 2014, 12:25:48 AM
Thanks Smiley

I keep track of it by getting the stats automatically every 15 mins and calculate it from the last 7 days of data.

But currently I am not yet showing a "weekly" history or something like that. You can see some daily history on the "Graphs" page though, and also on the specific detail pages like: http://dicesites.com/satoshidice

Is the cryptobetting index ranking a big deal in the bitcoin gambling world?

I don't see how it could be because the number of rolls data used there is quite easy to fake. Only blockchain games like the old satoshidice or luckyb.it can be verified through the blockchain. Also some dice sites allow zero satoshi rolls and this could increase the stats quite a bit.
Is the cryptobetting index ranking a big deal in the bitcoin gambling world?

How were you ranked in cryptobetting index?

They are ranked on that site. Far down on the page, though. Seems like the 7M bets on satoshidice is just not enough to appear high up in the list.
I made an overview site for only dice sites (see my signature.) Sites are ranked on total wagered. However I only list off-chain sites ATM so the SatoshiDice stats are only for the off-chain part. They are rising very fast though (considering the off-chain part has been around for like a month.)

On the "Weekly Top 10" they are #3 with 1,540 BTC wagered in a week, but the #2 only has 144 BTC more so that is pretty close.

I am still planning to add a separate on-chain page where SD will be obviously first Tongue

It would be optional. Some are trading many coins here so some extra security wouldn't be too bad for them.
1175  Economy / Gambling / Re: BalloonBit.com | Provably Fair | 1% House Edge | Original gambling game on: December 03, 2014, 09:42:36 AM
First SatoshiCarnival, now BalloonBit.. seems this missing delimiter between the client seed and nonce are a typical thing for those sites with joyful-party names heh Tongue Actually BikiniDice also almost introduced that bug, perhaps together with some Brazilian Carnival photos I guess.


(site is down, but I assume that was the bug)

I don't think so

fedor3327, thanks a lot. Had a silly mistake in my javascript, fixed now. If you post your addy I will send u a BTC0.015 tip, if u want Smiley



DirectDice, currently I am only listing off-chain dice games. But I am really considering to add a separate on-chain page. My site is mostly meant for statistics though, and AFAIK you guys don't show statistics?

Frank.SD, currently I intend to list the most active dice websites that have been around for a while. I can see however that even for the first 2-3 weeks you guys have had very decent action. Therefor I will definitely consider to add your website as it becomes more popular. GL.
1180  Economy / Gambling / Re: DiceSites.com - List of dice sites w/ statistics, graphs & verifiers on: November 29, 2014, 07:52:41 AM
Yes. Dice sites only Smiley

The list is currently indeed not meant to list "all dice sites", but mostly "all established popular dice sites". I do know both SafeDice and BikiniDice are gaining some activity, so I will definitely consider them as they become more popular.

I am planning to add much more information about each dice site, including faucet information indeed Smiley And other general information like if there is a mobile site, what are the minimum deposits, bets, withdrawals and investments. FB/Twitter/etc. links. And more.

Thanks for the suggestions Smiley
