Hey! You added a jackpot bounty address! I think there's a bug, though. If you contribute to the jackpot bounty, it resets the "time since last deposit" value. That defeats the purpose of the minimum deposit value! It doesn't as far as I can tell, I just added to the Bounty game and it didn't reset the time remaining. I just tried it again and you're right! I guess I'm seeing things. If anybody has the confidence to start a jackpot round with at least 5 BTC, I will contribute 1 BTC to the round. What if I only have 4.5btc?

I think your fees calculation is off, unless I am missing something. I am bet #2 in http://bitponzi.net/Default.aspx?page=ViewRound&round=bitPonzi_OFFICIAL , and I put in bet #4 to pay myself out. I thought I did the math and put in enough to trigger the payment, but I ened up .004 short. You just take out 22% in that game right? 20% goes into the jackpot, and 2% to fees, and the rest goes in the pot? EDIT: You are fine - I'm doing the math wrong. Damn, that must suck! off by such a small amount... I'd help you out but I have everything in http://bitponzi.net/Default.aspx?page=ViewRound&round=DAILY_FAST and I can't. darn. edit: If you invest in DAILY_FAST, I will help you get paid out with the profits I put in enough to pay everyone out. Just to test the real math. I have the right equation now. I'd share, but I need every edge I can get. Ponzi has gotten hard! Equation for what? Fees? Say you are next to get paid, and the round is going to expire soon. The equation is to figure exactly how much to put in to pay out your waiting bet, accounting for current pot, fee % and jackpot %. I had it wrong at first. That's why I was .004 short. It's a "cut your losses" equation Wait hold on... can I possibly be wrong: b = bet r = roi p = pot f = fee j = jackpot k(1-f-j)+p=br k = (br-p)/(1-f-j)

I think we should combine the hard time limit with the old kind so that you could set a 24hr cap AND a 2hr expiration, whichever comes sooner. Also, with the fixed time limit, what if someone is a few seconds late? It sounds like the update script might lag a little and then they could still deposit.
