I think that most of the target players will rather not play online or strange games, they are used to compete in professional tournaments and train hours a day to become the best, it may be difficult to acquire these for a site. How would you create the right user experience, bonus and package to convince them that your site is for serious players and better than what they got?

Everything out there is a bet really. Just think of every day life, you will be taking many decisions. Some of them are stupid and some of them are trivial - like what to dress or what to eat. However, many of the decision you take have pros and cons that are really important for your life and the life of other that you love. Something as stupid as to decide if you would take over a car in a road is a bet.

In fact, people in the US are only free to yell at the American leadership in Soviet jokes. A case in point was this June in Los Angeles, when a police officer knocked a protesting woman with a megaphone to the ground and then hit her.  This...is such an incredibly stupid and invalid argument. I can't even... You see, that would never occur in the RF. Meaning that it would be impossible for anyone to get that close to Adolf Putin's car - not even to Adolf Putin's dog's car. The Tzar has been known to stop and clear traffic from several streets in Moscow when he decides to travel by car. The argument itself is, as you say stupid. This guy is fighting a lost battle trying to compare the limits to liberty in US or Europe to the despotic limits to expression and the extent of the repression in RF. |

Did you miss the part where the Russia tried to take Kiev and remove the government and ended up having to retreat?
As for Kyiv, I commented in this post above. I assume you mean this? I was talking about the first month. Which also included a hasty retreat from Kyiv.
Show me at least one quote from the Russian President, his ministers or the Russian General Staff that Russian troops were going to capture Kyiv. This news was trumpeted by the Western media, and then they themselves denied it, presenting it as an "unsuccessful plan of the Kremlin." It's the same as publishing a fake everywhere that American astronauts are going to land on Mars next month, and then a month later also say that American astronauts failed to achieve their goals. Russian troops launched a military group of about 15,000 people near Kyiv to contain the Kyiv troops so that they would not go for reinforcements to the eastern part. Russian troops were stationed there until, as a result of negotiations in Istanbul on March 29, 2022, a decision was made to remove the Russian group from that direction. It was after the negotiations that the Russian troops gone from the Kyiv region, which was then declared as "a great victory" for the Ukrainian military. By the way, how are the Ukrainian bayraktars doing there, about whom you were so worried? Something little news about them lately. If you really think it makes sense to ignore anything written by the west (free press) and only believe reports that are pro Russia or coming from Russian media (which is largely controlled by Putin), then obviously nothing will change your mind. But if not, and you've realized how ridiculous your points have been in the past like this one ... have a read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kyiv_(2022) and then let me know if you really think the first month of the war went mostly according to plan for Putin. Sometimes is difficult to tell is they are trolling or if they really believe in half of what they are saying. This was is no different from many others that have been led by the Russian supremacists. Confronting one ethnicity with others, using propaganda massively while ignoring any limit to what is human and what is "reasonable" in war. Smoke-screening with stupid arguments about "west" versus "east" (as if killing was a culture), accusing others of nazism while behaving as such, denying everything (Even denying there is war!!) ... Up to the point of complaining that the RF artists are no longer invited to play abroad while they kill the old and the young alike. I wonder how many people in the RF really believe the crap or they are just trying hard to believe it so that they do not feel part of the scum of the Earth. |

de-Russification of Ukraine I also have a question for people here: Why this is bad? I mean in reality de-russification == de-colonization , so why this is bad? Im' living in Ukraine, and never seen that people were forbidden to speak russian. But yeah, new generations should learn their own language, not some imperialistic and colonial "языГ". So this is like: you are allowed to speak russian, but your children will be ukrainian speaker, if you don't want so you could leave to russia.
... Wow, yeah, that's not racist at all. So nice of you to only discriminate against further generations, and allowing current generation to continue to speak Russian ( where majority in capital Kyiv use Russian in their everyday life) i thought there was a higher chance of Ukraine keeping it together, but after your comment, (if you in fact represent majority view) i can see how that will be impossible now. ...Unesco, the Council of Europe and the OSCE, are concerned with the risk that RMLs [Regional and Minority Languages] face and undertake actions to protect their linguistic rights. Non-respect for regional or minority communities' linguistic rights is qualified as racial discrimination, a breach of human rights. https://www.europarl.europa.eu/thinktank/en/document/EPRS_BRI(2016)589794Ofc not. This is called "decolonization". The same things happens in Africa or in New Zeland with maori. Russian is not the natural language to ukrainians, this is colonial language which was forced to learn by force. So it's normal that country want to leave colonial past behind. If someone want, he can learn russian by himself or in private schools. And yeah, russian this is not "regional language". Regional language is the language of minority nations which doesn't have their own countries. In Ukraine this is crimean tatar or gagauzi (minority nation near Moldova). And yeah, we need to help them to safe their culture. Ahh forbidding law abiding ethnic Russian UA citizens from teaching their children their native language under disguise of "decolonization" while claiming that it's not a "natural language to ukrainians" or they have to leave the country is not an indirect method aimed at forced migration at all.  . True EU values. Tell us you support ethnic cleansing without saying you support ethnic cleansing  Ethnic cleansing is the systematic forced removal of ethnic, racial, and religious groups from a given area...it also includes indirect methods aimed at forced migration by coercing the victim group to flee and preventing its return https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_cleansingSure, let's do that with London as well:  According to your theory, India should be in charge quite a few boroughs of London and Indi made an official language, the rest belong to the Middle East states and many to Ethiopia, so Ethiopian, Urdu, Farsi, Romanian, Polish,... all official. ...
Show me at least one quote from the Russian President, his ministers or the Russian General Staff that Russian troops were going to capture Kyiv. This news was trumpeted by the Western media, and then they themselves denied it, presenting it as an "unsuccessful plan of the Kremlin."

Oh... so the Ukrainians are right when they call the Orcs "tourists". Putin is still calling this a "special operation", yet he is at war. Nothing of what he says can be trusted (any enemy communication is by definition disinformation). However you can rely on facts: - 2014, Putin says "I could take Kyiv in 2 weeks if I wanted". - 2022 - Official declarations "de-nazify" & "de-militarise" (you tell me how that is done without taking Kyiv. - March 2022 - a Four pointed offensive towards Kyiv. - March 2022 - Intense fighting in localities around Kyiv. Sounds more like: "I can't have it, so I do want it". |

Did you miss the part where the Russia tried to take Kiev and remove the government and ended up having to retreat?
That 'part' only exists in the mind of people with a very limited understanding of warfare. Even at the time it was obvious that the Russians had no intention of 'taking' Kiev. At the same time, NATO had to divert resources to face the Russians in the area since they couldn't be allowed to roam about freely. To many covert biological weapons laboratories and that sort of thing. So, it sucked Ukrainian resources away from the defenses of what the Russians did intent to take and keep. This is actually pretty basic stuff. The Russians do seem to have had some hope that the entire country would collapse during the initial phases of the war and having control of some areas around Kiev in that situation would have been handy. They also seem to have been prepared with plans for multiple different scenarios...a concept which is alien to low-functioning people. For instance, if there were resistance in the North they would just pack up and leave, and that seems to be what played out. Shrug. Of course... multiple scenarios. The problem is that "testing" the scenario costed plenty of RF casualties and exposed a severe issues with communications, logistics, discipline, moral, corruption... So you bought a ticket to win the lottery and failed. You are now worse off than you started and have demonstrated the world that you cannot really wage a decisive modern war. That is without even counting the diplomatic backslash. Right. Bring up Strelkov while you're at it. Some people not being in jail doesn't negate the fact that an ordinary person can be beaten, jailed, fined, and possibly have criminal charges filed for a solitary "protest", which is technically legal but denied by all this "discreditation" bullshit.
Tell me, in the United States and European countries, there are no such examples in relation to protesters? What is Julian Assange sitting for, can you answer? Assange was not an opposition leader, nor a journalist nor someone holding a white sheet of paper. He was an ex-agent that broke every commitment he had made to his country. I am not saying if he was right or wrong, I am just stating the fact that he violated laws that every civilised nation has for the people who have access to confidential information. ... Russia will not run out of soviet era tanks and artillery, but HIMARS seem to certainly be making a difference on the ability to disrupt logistics. I do not give full credit to the British intelligence reports, but there seems to be a good chance on Ukraine actually being able to re-take the offensive, while the RF assaults seem quite stalled in the east.
This touches several of the weak points of RF and can make the war take a different perspective.
You constantly talk in this thread about the future victories of Ukraine and how clumsily the Russian army is fighting. Apparently, you are very confident in the victory of Ukraine, then I offer you a bet with the following conditions: - if Ukrainian troops manage to recapture any of these cities before January 1, 2023: Kherson, Mariupol, Melitopol, then I will leave this forum forever. - if the Ukrainian troops until January 1, 2023 are NOT able to recapture any of these cities: Kherson, Mariupol, Melitopol, then you will leave this forum forever. If you're not ready for this bet, then maybe you will stop your wishful talking?
... No thanks: - Firstly, I am not fifteen. - Second, I could not care less if you decide to leave the forum so your wage has zero value to me. - Lastly, and in any case, I would rather not bet on people's deaths and countries destroyed. However, if you are so sure of the qualities of the glorious RF and like high stakes, join the army, you can put your body were your words are. Send us a picture. However if, as I suspect, you wish to keep "wallposting" and betting from the safety of your chair, you can see my sponsor below, great site, good prices and excellent reputation. My objective is to let anyone in the RF that is considering joining the RF army to understand clearly what are they getting into and how stupid is to die for Putin. What I claim about the RF army is real. Undisciplined, unready, obsolete material... all claims but little result. Will Ukraine retake Kherson before new year? I have no idea, but I think they have a better chance now that they understand the RF capabilities and the US is starting to trust their ability to use sophisticated weapons. And there is certainly something happening in the south that looks much more promising than it was a month ago. |

One interesting moment: From the sart of the war, russian nazionalists propaganda and so-called "voencori" (war journalists) speculated that ukrainians cutting testicles to russian captives. Ofc, with 0 proofs, later one "voencor" Evgeny Poddubny told that this was his psyop idea, but as you can understand russian didn't believe that all this shit was just a imagination of one "voencor". So they think that ukrainians doing this, but putin and russian govenrment trying to cover this facts. And as we see, they started to do it by themselves.
So what in return? We have proof that russian doing such things (at least once), but zero proofs about ukrainians.
Of course, they're projecting their own crimes on Ukrainians. Just like with attacks on civilian objects, looting, etc. It's easier to "report" it when you don't have to make it up, just blame it on the other side. @paxmao, @suchmoon, @1miau, @LTU_btcI've read that many of you discuss how russian will counter HIMARS strikes. Obviously, they can't destroy with arms, but because russian are shit nation, they've found another assymetric answer . Look at this: https://i.imgur.com/NmBxj1wl.pngIn short assymetric answer is: "If you continue to shot our warehouses and command stations, we will kill your captives who are in our disposal" This one was actually quite successful as a propaganda move. I see Western media (AP etc) peddle this now, some reports like "Russia claims Ukrainians attacked prison" and some without the "Russia claims" part. Kremlin will do everything they can to create the impression that HIMARS is used "improperly", they're really afraid of it and perhaps hoping that US will slow delivery because of this propaganda. The recurrent threat from the RF to anything that is not just letting them kill people at their will is to go one step further in brutality and destruction. The problem with that "strategy" is that the degree of brutality and destruction is already extreme. Filtration, deportation and mistreatment of captives is already happening. Forced nationalization is ongoing. I am right now watching the film "Mr Jones", it is about the Holodomor in Stalin times. I do not think that Moscow is doing anything better now nor intends to do anything different in the future. Moscow will use any captured part of Ukraine to spoil and buy the kleptocrat's a few more acres of land for the Dachas, as a burnable land in case of conflict and as population to be massacred and kept in check - so that they do not get politically influential ever. For now the destruction of schools, medical centres, shopping centres, this is a deliberate attempt to destroy everything that makes a country live and thrive is pointing in that direction (pure wanton destruction, of no use for the war objectives). I am saying all this because I believe that Ukraine may need to endure, because unless they keep being an independent country, the lives of the people will simply by a tool for Moscow - a dispensable tool that can be deported, killed by hunger, used as forced labour and politically cancelled. I can only imagine the sacrifices and courage of the people fighting and helping the fight in Ukraine, but without it, there is no future for the people and the future generations in Ukraine. Unfortunately, and since this is already an armed conflict, they only route IMHO is to use all tools to the maximum efficacy to win the war. If you take a look at the RF army, the weaknesses that are evident come from: - Corruption. - Poor logistics - Poor leadership - Non-professional / disaffected / undisciplined / unseasoned soldiers. - Population reluctance to join the army or support the war. Russia will not run out of soviet era tanks and artillery, but HIMARS seem to certainly be making a difference on the ability to disrupt logistics. I do not give full credit to the British intelligence reports, but there seems to be a good chance on Ukraine actually being able to re-take the offensive, while the RF assaults seem quite stalled in the east. This touches several of the weak points of RF and can make the war take a different perspective. |

Fresh pearl from Lucy Arestovich: "They don't have a strategy for defense, so they don't know what to do and attack".  It seems that the strategy or regional groups works decently in defence, given the massive difference in means. Happy you can keep you sense of humour despite "one of the best armies" being proven to be a fossil from the last century, unable to mount anything but localised, slow pace offensives. I would certainly would not consider Kherson "liberated" if I were you. |

Most of the states have laws regarding slot machines. In my country, there is a very strict regulation that machines have to meet, including maximum prices, percent that has to be given in prices and certainly all the testing that the machine has to undergo before it can be commercially sold. I am not sure if there are wider EU or US regulations in their territories as well.

^^ Regardless where gambling originated, China or India or ancient Middle East, gambling has been ingrained with humanity since the dawn of man. Perhaps our ancestors really found out a clever way to dice, whether to used it for entertainment or other purposes. And this is how we involved, and this is also the same reason why it's hard to get rid of gambling because it's already on our DNA as per our ancestors.
Indian culture is very rich in gambling and so does Chinese, but likewise there are two group in India - one who gamble and the other who do not. Those who gamble also are forbidden in their culture. So even if the people gamble but they have this guilt feeling at the back of their mind. That they might loose their hard earned money. Most religions have, along with the theology and the principles of the corresponding god or gods, some short of moral code that comes attached as a way of keeping the peace in the community of followers, and, to be honest, to favour those that dictate the rules. In that code, it is usual to mention the basics: not killing, not stealing, ... Some religions take that a notch further and pretty much ban anything that is fun. I am not sure the gods want us to be bored. |

I just wanted to let you guys know that I love the concept behind creating custom challenges and the platform as well. I really hope this becomes something more widespread and other casinos decide to implement part of this strategy. For you guys, remember that you need to keep running just to keep in the competition, so , in a way, you are also in a bet - starting with making the users feel safe.

Rhos look like a means for spamming to me as the thread starter never come back here to answer questions and at the same time not making any update to the thread to show how serious the ops is but at this time we have to look away from this thread.
Having and operating an unchain gambling site is quite incredible but not at this time, op meed to upgrade his approach here.
The approach needs many changes, not just the website itself but the manner it is announced and being managed. There is a whatsapp and telegram given on the website for support and I would have much preferred on-site live support instead. Will keep an eye on the thread and see how it goes but I am surely not going to try this out because the website doesn't give much confidence and the bitcointalk person managing doesn't seem too reliable or concerned about answering questions either. Be careful guys, it's fun to play at new casinos but do not deposit/gamble with big amounts unless it has some reputation or feedbacks from others. What I am wondering is that OP keeps on going Online almost everyday but never return here to post or address people , maybe he is monitoring if there are some fool people here that turns into his Trap and then he will gather his gains from those. I know that there are many of account here like OP that solely created the account for this kind of luring . There is a secular tendency to use this forum for anything but it is intended purpose. It seems that every guy out there thinks that getting into a shady business is going to provide more income than dedicating that same effort to a honest endeavour. They say crime does not pay, and that is true in 90% of the cases. Many would be scammers could actually have a profitable career doing something else. |

I also think that devs know their business well and also what useful functions their tokens perform. I think that investing in these tokens is quite reliable and their universal purpose as an investment tool and at the same time a game token is to some extent a guarantee that the tokens will not turn into dying assets, as it was with thousands of empty tokens without any useful functions, which were released by all and sundry in 2017-18 at the ICO. Here the situation is completely different.
Correct, Casino startup nowadays invest huge funds on there casino product before they launch there tokens to the public. Most of them has a gambling license and working casino with real players unlike startup casino before that building from scratch using the funds from ICO sales which already proven that is not feasible at all because al of them died in the process die to limited funds. I think that the investments are not that big compared to brick and mortar businesses for example, and that tokens and ICOs may hint to a project that is not yet complete. Since 2018 the ICOs have been correlated to bad publicity and that is something that any casino should consider before even metioning the word "token" in any of their initiatives. |

Of course, Putin uses gas as a weapon.
I'm genuinely surprised you admit that. Be patient, it will get worse, much worse.
I know it will. I don't trust politicians, no matter what's their color. But I guess you also know/expect that it will be worse for both sides.You are right, but there is a nuance. I'll try to draw an analogy, imagine that Europe blocked Russia's water, and Russia, in response, blocked Europe's air. Man cannot live without air and man cannot live without water, but five minutes without water is easy to endure, and five minutes without air can be fatal. One minute has already passed. The main problem is that the EU cannot accept the RF waging a war in Europe. To follow your metaphor, you can live a few weeks without food, a few days without water but only a few minutes without air. In this case, air is the certainty that you countries will not get threatened and then invaded. Survival comes first, economy later. If the EU has to endure to exist, it will endure. |

I don't understand Europe's whining about Gazprom. Of course you don't, since you chose to trust Putin's propaganda instead of fact-checking everything. Of course you don't, since you chose to ignore everybody who tells that Putin uses the gas as a war weapon.But yeah, I don't know why I'm even answering. But at least I won't answer to your friend. Of course, Putin uses gas as a weapon. It would be strange and stupid of him not to use such a powerful lever of pressure on Europe - and he uses it in a brilliant style. Pumping through Nord Stream at 20% of capacity now brings Russia more money than pumping through Nord Stream at 100% six months ago, because the spot gas price is now ten times higher. Europe should learn from Russia how to impose sanctions in order to deliver maximum pain to the opponent and at the same time not harm its own economy. And you thought Russia would silently endure the flows of European shit in its direction? Be patient, it will get worse, much worse. In Europe, the limit of sanctions pressure on Russia has already been exhausted, and Russia has not really even started yet. RF can do damage to EUs economy, but it is very limited in time and in its effects. Eventually, this will lead to EU finding an alternative strategy in the long term and the RF having to sell to China at a 50% discount to market prices. Hardly a win. However, the EU strategy will damage the RF ability to conduct business short and long term. Some forecasts speak of a 30% GDP drop for RF. Adolf Putin does not mind, he is not going to have trouble paying for the next bill and the food and there is nothing you can do to remove the guy from power. All the people running from the RF have already figured it out. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/07/14/russians-flee-putins-regime-after-ukraine-war-in-second-wave-of-migration.html....it’s about the safety of your family,” Vladimir told CNBC via video call from his office in Moscow.
For Vladimir, the decision to leave the country he has called home all his life “was not made in one day.” Under President Vladimir Putin’s rule, he has watched what he called the “erosion of politics and freedom” in Russia over several years. But the Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine was the final straw. This does not look like a country that is "winning" anything uh? The effects in western Europe? Well, heating at 19 instead of at 23. Hardly something that is going to change the strategy. |

"Complex motives?" Nah, China is doing what China always does, taking the opportunity when is there. They do not fear an invasion from the RF (I am not sure they understand fully that risk, but the fact is they ignore it) so why not buying cheap when it is available? Who know, maybe they will be the new Germany and make the "smart" move of making their economy depend on the will of Adolf Putin. For now it seems the sanctions on Russia is having more negative impact on Europe and US than the sanctioned nation.
"For now" is the key word here. Oil and gas prices will drop when countries will start producing more of them. And Russia can't simply sell all the oil and especially gas that it was selling to Europe - there's no infrastructure or demand among its friends for that. Combine this with the discounts they have to make to make their oil more attractive, and you'll see that in next 2-3 years Russian fossil fuels revenue is going to drop. And that would be very painful, because that's 50-60% of Russian budget, as they don't have any significant high technology or service exports. Europe does not have the opportunity to wait 2-3 years for the sanctions to take effect on Russia, because it will not be able to winter the coming winter without energy supplies from Russia. A gas shutdown would cost the RF 228 USD million... that is per day - and before you say something silly, that cannot be re-routed to China, there is no infrastructure. That would be 20 Billion for 3 months until spring kills the leverage. You have a very naïve idea of the importance of the RF and a very poor understanding of the resources that Europe can mobilise in a war economy. Your dream of "freezing Europe" is a simple idea for a simple mind. The EU did not want to revive the coal and nuclear energy sources, but if it has to happen, it will. I guess that the world will need to afford another bad year for climate change. These are the countries that could be affected the worse, just for context: - Austria, 20% of energy from gas, all currently from RF. - total problem: 20% of the energy - Slovakia, Hungary, 25% of their energy, mostly from RF. - total problem: 20% of the energy - Germany, 27% of their energy from gas, but only 55% from RF. - total problem: 13% of their energy. And the rest is even less. I do not want to minimise the issue, but this looks more like having the heating on at 19 C instead of at 23?? Germany still has coal and nuclear, France has nuclear power for half Europe, the south of Europe does not care about RF gas. Economic problems? There will be, there are always. I am sure the US thanks Adolf Putin everyday. Can Europe wait? I do not see why not, it is much better than having Adolf Putin thinking that he can threaten with an invasion. |

Hi, is that "RF air supremacy"? I think they are looking for you in Berdiansk. Somehow Ukraine is still not understanding that they cannot strike well inside the occupied territory. https://twitter.com/i/status/1551544220846006273But I am wondering now, if the disconnect between Aldolf Putin and his army is happening as I suspect, there will also be a disconnect between when the military is spending and what they can really afford to spend. This calls for tragedy before end of year. The smoke is something thin, the firecracker exploded? When is the counterattack on Kherson? If I tell you I would have to kill you.

For what I read in your "source", it says that Zelensky had his benefits from TV parked off-shore? Hardly an accusation to be honest. But yes, Ukraine is not free from corruption, but my point is that Putin is not acting against it and that has to be for a reason.
In my view, he cannot. He is not in full control of the army.
Acting against what? Yes, wink wink... against what. Hi, is that "RF air supremacy"? I think they are looking for you in Berdiansk.
