Or he could be bloody Australlian... seriously, Aussies have more a stranglehold over 'bloody' than Brits.

Bloody hell...

Definitely needs to happen.

Yes, I did it last night... enjoy (let me know if it doesn't work): https://bitmessage.org/forum/index.php/topic,2728.0.html

Definitely thug/freedom/anoncoin.

I managed to create a .app/dmg of Bitmessage after I got it to successfully install on my Mac. So far I've had a couple of people report that it works, but feel free to test it out.

Hey Maco,

• 6th of July, 7.30 pm (PDT). The entry fee is 10 mBTC.
• If you check the front page https://minecoin.co there's a green banner at the top of the page with information on the next game. After you register (free, only need an email) you'll be able to join any upcoming games after you verify your Minecraft username (easy process, no need to input your password or anything like that). Also we place you on our mailing list to let you know when the next game is on.
• We've run a successful beta (gave away > 80 mBTC) and identified a couple of bugs that we've have since fixed and some we're working on. Everything works, we're just making improvements in processing BTC withdrawal requests (we process these manually as a security measure). So our goal is to seamlessly receive a withdrawal request and process it under 12 hours at most.
• We have received some attention, but we certainly need more. I think this is largely trust-dependent. Certainly one of our weaknesses RE trust is that players need to pay the entry-fee before the game starts. We are very interested in implementing the micro-payment channels via Bitcoinj https://code.google.com/p/bitcoinj/wiki/WorkingWithMicropayments, which will resolve this issue. For the moment we just invite everyone to test us our with small entry-fee games like the one coming up on the 6th of July.

Hope to see you in the game!

Thanks Mike, we're seriously looking at implementing this as it appears like a perfect fit... particularly with the zero-trust element.

We'll be in touch.

No, you can use the vanilla Minecraft client.

Yeah, the entry fee for the economy game is 10 mBTC. Hope to see you there.

Hey Mike,

We were talking about this very thing last night after we saw the post via Reddit. We're gonna look at the details this week. Anyone we could correspond with to answer our questions on the bitcoinj side of things?

Hell yes.

The next game is happening on the 6th of July, check the original post for details! In the meantime you can practice on the server for free. See you in the game.

@Moogle:

Yes the Beta is over, sorry you missed out. You can see the results at: https://minecoin.co/games/leaderboard (1 BitOre = 1 mBTC; we're gonna update this to show BTC today).

We're going to be announcing new tournaments and features in the next few days, I'll post them up here.

Hey Erdy, last I heard we fixed that up for you?

For both free and competition games you need to register with an email address and verify your Minecraft username (we don't ask for your password to do this). After that you're free to join the queue of any game in the Games tab (https://minecoin.co/games/) -- need to be logged into to see this at the moment, will change this soon.

You'll be placed into the queue and if you're part of the first 25 to join the game, but your position will only be confirmed after you pay the entry fee in advance (refundable if anything goes wrong or you pull out minus the tx fees). You'll be whitelisted to the server once the game opens. If you're #26+ you'll have a spot reserved in case someone pulls out.

We have emails that we send to you at each step of the process.

Not that we're aware of... then again that's what the beta test is for, we appreciate any efforts by white hats out there.

We have also installed a number of anti-cheating and anti-xray plugins designed to locate certain types of block in the map... plus we track and observe user behaviour.

If you have Minecraft, the beta test has just started so feel free to join now as there are still some slots open.

Quick update:

There are 8 hours until the Beta test game starts and there 17 spots left open to join. In the game there are 87 blocks of BitOre buried within an area 36 x 36 (from the surface down to the bedrock). Each BitOre block is worth 1 mBTC each.

It's free to join, please contact us if you have any troubles registering or logging in.

Announcing MineCoin!

Hi folks,

I'd like to introduce a project that we've been working on called MineCoin (https://minecoin.co).

MineCoin is a Minecraft-based tournament game for mining gold ore blocks that are redeemable for Bitcoins (BitOre blocks). These tournaments are pay-to-play (in BTC) with the pooled entry fees making up the total number and value of BitOre in the game. We've retextured gold ore to look more... Bitcoiny.

Update #1: The Beta test is over, you can see the results on the leaderboard (https://minecoin.co/games/leaderboard)

Update #2: You can now access the game server in-between scheduled games to mine BitOre for play in-game currency. The server address is: server.minecoin.co:25580

Update #3: We have scheduled our first tournament match for the 6th of July, 7.30 pm (PDT). The entry fee is 10 mBTC. Entry fees are refundable up until the 24 hours before the game starts. Also allow for 12 hours after paying the entry fee for your balance to be updated and your position in the queue to be confirmed. We will make this process automated and immediate in the very near future.

We are really after your feedback, bug reports and suggestions, so feel free to drop them in the comments below.
