Fixed the site.  Sorry about that!  What to do about the chat names?  Filter out < and > characters?  That'll work...
Thanks.

Filtering those characters will work. If there's some great benefit to having those characters, you could make the username have a different style.

Problem!

Imagine you have a user named "a> b". Whenever they speak, you'll see
Code:
12:34:56 (31337) <a> b> Hi
This is indistinguishable from,
Code:
12:34:56 (31338) <a> b> Hi
Which is another user, named "a", saying "b> Hi."

Please fix this.


Edit: also the site's broken (try to reload). Fix that too.
Edit2: the websocket connection is not happening.

(The HTML loads, at least:)

Besides it's totaly stupid for dooglus to cheat this much at a time. If he wanted to he'd do it slowly over time, not like this.
That depends on which level you think. Maybe he's one level higher than you, and he did it this obviously precisely because people think like that Wink Tongue

I read the provable fair page, and don't get why it has to be so many steps.

What's wrong with just,

server calls a random function to generate a number and a secret string, combines them and returns the hash of it,

the number is released along with the secret string.

what's the benefit of the client seed other than "to further randomize the rolls." ? the randomness from server is not enough ?
The benefit of the client seed is to keep the server from cheating. Imagine if you were betting on 10%, and the server gave you a secret which had been pre-tested, and the first 1000 rolls were between 10 and 90.

The most recent big win is another reason we need graphs!

But making people who don't use the trade section look like scammers is just fail.

Now i need someone to give some trust so i don't look like a scammer to the whole forum as my trust thing suddenly become yellow. Someone give me a +1, c'mon  Tongue
This bothers me, too. Just because I haven't traded with people in DefaultTrust is going to make me look untrustworthy. Never mind the year-old forum presence, OTC rating, etc.

ok mine is minertt.
Good site and waiting for API's

I posted sample socket.io code a few pages back.

A "highest wins" or whatever would be very useful after this latest streak. Just throw on a "hey, you never know."
430  Other / Meta / Re: Marketplace trust on: July 13, 2013, 05:53:41 PM
Hmm.... why is my +xx decreasing when untrusted people gave me positive feedback? I'm sure it wasn't like this last time....
This is an easily exploitable problem...

Is Hemlis project in any way related to Bitmessage project?

No. I'm skeptical about hemlis.

horror story.

created an address from the android app.
copypasted that address to an email.
had 200 coins sent to the addy.
address disappears from wallet.

Never have coins sent to an address before you get a wallet backup email.

Although such suggestions make sense especially for large sums like that, everything the app can possibly do to avoid such mishaps should be done. There It is no excuse to tell the user to tighten his practices. Users will do dumb things, count on it.
Indeed; I was not defending blockchain.info. I myself lost about 1 BTC using this method, but back then there was no app and bitcoin was $5.

Here is a big repository of various scripts for JD posted in the chat: https://github.com/knowitnothing/misc/tree/master/justdice

I still don't understand why people interact with the UI instead of just writing and reading frames to/from the WebSocket...
Because websockets are "augh," and JQuery is easy. Maybe a just-dice websocket reference is in order?

Code:
// Send a bet
socket.emit("bet", csrf, {bet: 0.0004324, chance: 49, which: 'lo'});

// Send a chat
socket.emit("chat", csrf, "hi");

// Respond to a win
socket.on("wins", function (data){
    console.log(data);
}

// Respond to a chat
socket.on("chat", function(text, timestamp){
    chatRe = /<([^>]+)> (.*)/;
    who = text.replace(chatRe, '$1');
    said = text.replace(chatRe, '$2');
    console.log(who);
    console.log(said);
}

Its only purpose is to widen the gap between the haves and have nots, thus making it easier to centralize the currency supply.
That's its only purpose... except the part where it incentivizes lending, thus increasing the monetary flow and providing "startup capital" to allow the have nots to bootstrap their way into the haves.

Dooglas: Sorry if this has been covered already, but are you operating an incorporated business? If so, in what jurisdiction is that business located (state/country)?  Also, where are you personally located?
Not a corp, Canada.

A vote for Fred means "I endorse the system and I want Fred to be my ruler". A vote for Joe means "I endorse the system and I want Joe to be my ruler".

Failing to cast a vote is failing to endorse the system.

OK, so eventually voting gets cancelled altogether and Joe becomes the Supreme Leader. How does that help you?
Imagine a different scenario: you are a slave on a plantation, and all you need to do to get padded chains is admit that your owner has the right to rule you.

Failing to do so is failing to endorse the system

> The padded chains are disposed of. How does that help you?

You did the moral thing, that's how.

Seems like there is 1 bet/s at the moment. Are these the sites bots to fake activity?
Watch the "wagered" amount.

All bots are third-party.

Most people have more bandwidth than storage.
Can you clarify that? Given infinite time and a nonzero internet speed, all people have more bandwidth than storage.
