Good news coming from Eddie, but before that, I congratulate Stake.com on its growth to become one of the 7th largest casinos in the world....
I too saw this article and was very happy and excited for Stake! The only area where I didn't think the article gave the site enough credit was it's support. Stake was one of the first sites with live 24/7 support and that was a huge plus for the crypto gaming industry. Their growth has been incredible over the last year and they deserve all the accolades they have received, clearly crypto, privacy, and gambling go together! So congratulations all around!

Two things:
First, did someone kick over the server or something? I was chatting and playing and now the site wont load -- getting a 504 error.
Second, all the low quality posts in this thread talking about the signature campaign are the best evidence why the site should not renew the signature campaign.
Thanks and good luck!

The array for our server which contains the OS, general configuration, and the webserver itself appears to have catastrophically failed. Both disks failed before the rebuilding of the RAID array could be completed. We will be offline for an extended period to restore our site from backups. The expected downtime is over 24 hours.
We do not expect any data to be lost, as our database disks (and the backups) are still working fine.
Just bumping this as the latest official word for anyone coming here looking for news or status of the site. I totally agree that the signature campaign was doing nothing to help the site and the number of low quality posts in this thread are breath taking. I also hope Zodiac takes some time while restoring the site to offer some long requested improvements such as revised doge amounts on roulette and having 1 satoshi = 10 tokens for daily challenges. Of course, anything to improve the wallet situation would be most welcome as well. Fingers crossed.

Given some of the bad press this site got, I have to commend Mark on how he's shutting down. Plenty of notice and none of he "hacked" aka "run away with the coins" that so many other sites have pulled.
I logged on yesterday no problem, used the exchange feature and got all significant balances out without any delays or issues.
I'll miss luckygames because of the huge array of coins supported and their built in exchange feature was remarkable.
Rest in Peace Luckygames!

We have taken the losses on ourselves and have paid back investors with our personally held coins. All investors who were part of the bankroll at the time of the incident have had all related losses credited back to their investments.
Major kudos for this awesome display of integrity. Looks like 2 or 3 BTC out of your pockets to protect your investors, that speaks volumes. Swordsoffreedom - Margin is simply a way to increase your effective bankroll. If you take x10 margin it will act like you have ten times as much investment as you actually do and allocate your proportional gains and losses accordingly. So all investors are still splitting the sites profit from gambling. Salauddin - The bonus is donated by players in satoshi and then is added to the rainbot's pool for rains. The exact formula of how much it pays out over time has not been published to my knowledge. To all - just a heads up that faucet and quest bonuses have in fact been reduced.

Lol, I just checked, it looks like the background's css opacity is wrong which makes it render at the front. It should be a quick fix once dooglus works on this.
Thanks for this! Glad that is all that it is. Maybe Deb just wanted Dooglus all to herself for Valentines Day! See you all on site when it's back up!

I'm getting a green screen for the site now, hope it's just me.
If it's gone, I'll miss JD, it was a pioneer.

you do know you ruin every fucking thread. that's why i never come here anymore
I'm sure i'm not the only one
This is why ignore user is such a nifty command here. You can see he's made all this effort, but don't have to view any of the repetitive posturing. As to the buffed Forum Rewards, they are legit and very worthwhile. Good Luck!

so the rumour is true that we need to send our document just for this airdrop ? i mean, we need to verify our data just for $25 ? what happen if they are using our document for crime or money laundering or something like that ? it has been decided or verified yet ? or ... what ? (i just can't believe it)
This setup is sure not for me. Sound crazy to reveal my ID and back up it by papers for $25, this is a total come-on. I just want to echo this. I love Stellar and its idealism but this "airdrop" is borderline cynical. It seems like Blockchain is using it to build their user base for their trading platform which I could not care less about. It would have been nice if we could claim without having to give over our government issued photo ID to Blockchain. They are Stellar's coins and their's to give out how they please. I understand wanting to avoid people who farm the system, but being used as pawn for Blockchain is just weak beyond words. I still love Stellar and wish it the best!

I don't endorse non-escrow'd trades between players, I recommend people do so at their own risk. We've partnered with a company that does altcoin exchange for a lot of big exchanges and just finished implementing it, will be launching soon.
This is pretty big news! Will this get rolled out to Stake as well?
