Could oyu postpone reset because of downtime?  It was like a 3 hour downtime o.O If enough people suggest this, I may do it. |

Sorry, I just got back online.
Our web-server ran out of space. I'm not really sure how, but it crashed.
I have backups on my PC and will be restoring (if anything happened) when it gets back up.
Worst case, I have full payment logs in mybitcoin's website which will be used to pay back people (which I will have to do manually) if it stays down.

The pot shows how much there is to payback. The pot calculates 1% already taken out of the equation. When I send people the money, I am re-calculating their price based on how much they put in instead of relying on the Bank. The Bank allows me to know how much to split among the players who haven't gotten paid at the end of the game. I'm not exactly sure what you mean.... Can you create a spreadsheet of your own in the style of mine? I am just failing to see where the 2.8401 (that I believe) should be in the pot is. I've got someone I needed to be 3 minutes ago, so I'll do it when I get home. But, I'll be more then happy to make a spreadsheet.  |

Things I would like to see in the API: - current server time/time till next reset/round/current round time
- list of all players with status and time they entered and value
- multiple API calls in same request
- API version
Thank you for the nice game This will be available closer to tonight (as I've got stuff I've got to do today). I will make the new API version v3.x with these features as I'm going to change how the API layout is. (api/vX.X.php?....) Functions will be like: api/v3.0.php?function[]=getPlayersPaid&function[]...etc etc |

Any news on my 1.5? I got a confirmation on the payment page, but I have no idea how the rest works. Did it get sent to your wallet and was ignored by the script, or is there some function in the SCI that holds incoming payments if they are at the wrong amount?
I'm only out .51 if I include the first double, but I imagine it could be worse for someone who gets the decimal point wrong and sends ten times their intended amount.
 It states, that you need to pay exactly what it shows. I don't want to be rude, but that's honestly your mistake. |

I have a question:
in total, people paid 83.52 BTC today. Of this, 82.6848 goes to the pot (1% fee).
also, 74,68 BTC have been sent to people (double the amount of all players listed as doubled) (your example shows your fee going back to the pot, which is a bit strange, so I didn't include it).
so the pot should contain 8.0048 BTC, right? The site lists the pot as 5.6084, so where did the other 2.4 go?
Is my math wrong somewhere?
Going to restate what he said with my math: 83.52 put into the pot so far Take away the 1% fee leaves the pot at 82.6848 Green entries total to 37.34 This means a total payout of 74.68 Total put in - total payout (should) = current pot 82.6848 - 74.68 =\= 5.6048 So looks like yorick was correct in his math. The pot shows the 1% taken away, but when I send people the money, I re-calculate based on what they put in. $amount2send = ($Amount*2) - ($Amount/100);
mbc_spend($Address,$amount2send,"[BitDouble]: Payout!",""); $Amount = what they paid. I don't think daily scheduled resets are a good idea. The time period is too short and in the end everyone will just join in with automated bots paying the first second of the new round.
Heh, I'd thought about making a bot to do it.... perhaps a CAPTCHA needs to be put in place for submitting your entry, this should prevent any bots from entering. Plus there are tons of easy to use CAPTCHA services out there. There already is a captcha. Yeah, there is a captcha when you pay. I honestly don't care if people use bots to pay. [Edit]: Now that I thought about it (still waking up), bots probably won't be a good idea. If the game is in the middle of restarting; then the payment may get lost. So, if the bot send the payment while the game is "supposedly offline" looks like I just got a new donation. So, script carefully!  |

Its all a bet... he could have the same odd's in blackjack and noone would think it was wierd lol. But it can pay off And it might not sometimes  Right now is the best time to enter, because you've got until midnight (server time) to get doubled! [Edit]: I'm off to take a smoke, then I'm going to sleep. (If anyone has been keeping track, I haven't slept since I first opened this game). |

Wow, so that still makes this uber risky.....I just lost 9 BTC from not knowing that. POerhaps that line should be copied and pasted in the intro? Or at least made more noticeable.
That the game resets every night? Sorry, I'll add that now. |

Would you lend me your Transaction ID? (kind of busy to look through each payment) I think the percentage for return is applied to the remaining pot weighted by your entry not applied to your entry completely.
Yes! |

Your in luck! I was able to find your payment!  You should get a refund shortly. Sorry about the delay. |

There were actually three transaction IDs around 138200, mine and then two others above it that temporarily appeared and then vanished. All the other transaction IDs for yesterdays game ended around in the 136,000's.
I'm not sure why it isn't showing up, unless your software didn't take it into account because of the 'end of day processing', but one way or another I've 1 less BTC in my account. And if it were added to yesterday's transactions I'd expect a few bitcents back per your end of day refund policy. But in this case, my transaction didn't get included in either day, and seems lost somewhere in translation.
I'm not sure what software you're using to track this, but if you examine balances I think it should be fairly clear that a total of three 1BTC transactions came in and then disappeared immediately before the reset but after Midnight.
This software is actually my wallet.  So, anything I receive here doesn't even filter through my code. My code is more like an extension to the wallet. |

There is only 1 BTC payment I received (right before the whole game-end payment stuff happened), but it was from neither of those addresses.
It was sent, I'm happy to send you a screenshot. It temporarily appeared on the old list, and then vanished before the reset. This is the only person I received a payment from right before the game reset (hes the 1BTC at the bottom).  |

Enjoy, I've spent the past 2 days (without sleep) making sure this code is TOP NOTCH!
Did you enter some function that takes care of transactions from tired idiots who enter 1btc but send 1.5...?  Sorry, I don't think I can help there. |

1 BTC.
There is only 1 BTC payment I received (right before the whole game-end payment stuff happened), but it was from neither of those addresses. I had two 1 BTC bets when it reset, but got two payments of only 0.02817173 each. Payout address: 1D4KPKd4qw6eiV4NDy7kBHCmhiBzPv7PqK
At the end there was only 1.14xxx left if the pot to be split between everyone. I had to split it evenly (which is why I had to disable the instant game-over tonight to correct my math). |

The address I used for payment was: 1FfMKrGGMMthUZduYHZfq7Sx78QfCbMKyq
The address I sent payment to was: 1GN585zDpi4MSGpKZap5Tgspe2TkzmZVe1
How much did you send? |
|
|
|
Since it appears that my entry didn't count for either yesterday or today, could I trouble you for a refund?
*cough* two post up What's your address? |
|

that was fast money 4 in 7.96 out.
NothinG, did you lose my entry? It temporarily showed up but then vanished from the previous list before the changeover.
Looks like it was more popular than I thought. When the reset happen, it took ~30seconds...(having to send all the payments for the end of the day game). I'll set it up so if it's in the middle of running the end-of-the-day code, then it won't let anyone enter as something may not show up. What's your address? I'll go check. |
