1b) An improved idea (and the one Doog was favoring) was to ask users to select one of a few options for maximum bet. For example, you would chose if you want 0.5% maximum wagered per bet or 1%. The site then just has to calculate the percentage of the bank roll owned collectively by those two bins after every roll since the percentage a single investor owns of either bins remains a constant unless there is an invest or divest event. This, for now, seems to be the way it may be implemented.

1b looks OK. If someone wants to go into higher risk bin and take on themselves percentage of all bets above current Max Profit it's fine with me.

This has all been hashed over before. Max profit should be returned to the kelly optimum of 1%, and investors should be encouraged to reduce their investment size until they no longer have hernias when a whale wins big. There is no need for an additional risk limit knob -- that's what your investment amount is for.

Not quite; there are a couple scenarios in which a higher "leverage" on Just-Dice is advantageous over a higher investment amount. There are more, but three spring to mind:

  • A lack of perfect trust in dooglus, dooglus' computer skills, etc
  • A lack of bitcoins
  • Having taken out a loan to invest in Just-Dice (not that I condone this one)

Aw I didn't know Bitmit shutdown.
It's a shame, too. None of the competition provides close to what they had.

Without that weekly all-or-nothing, I sure do post a lot less.

That's a rather elitist position to take.

It's still the first in some parts of the world.

This "VOD" guy [..] has never got a loan
I don't think he needs one. There are multiple people who would be willing to lend to him.

Hi there,
Is this project still active? Last version update from October 2013, this forum thread not seems to be busy one.. Any news on BitMessage development?

EDIT: I see there is a lots of activity on github, any particular date when new stable version will be released? I rather wait for new stable version than compile it from github (with possible bugs).

Regards
Lenny

There's also the bitmessage forum which has activity:

Hello,
 
  Will you be honoring this sale anytime in the near future?

Oh geez, a month? Have you gotten a tracking number yet?

0.2.81
Now the script saves the content of the posting textbox so if you accidentally F5 or if there's a problem while posting you can resurrect it
It's this button:

Please add this serverside to every forum ever.

"I trained software"

What does that even mean? He found a wild software in the jungles of the Amazon and tamed it? It takes artificial intelligence / machine learning to break HMAC-SHA512?

If there are CSS coders over here, I can put your code directly in BT++
  • I create a 'CSS coder' account on my server
  • You can upload there new versions of your CSS whenever you want
  • They replace the previous one after I review them
Hell yeah! Sign me up!
Ok, send me your code, for now it will be by hand
Also, your quotes seem broken


Hiding threads is coded in the current version (0.2.73)

What a present! Thanks Grin

Now people need to actually donate to force 5 coins. Smooth.

What?
94  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Just-Dice.com : Invest in 1% House Edge Dice Game on: December 17, 2013, 04:45:57 PM
it's both run by dooglus aka dogelus  Wink

It's true; I made doge-dice.com.

It's pretty much just a clone of JD but using dogecoin instead of bitcoin.
Many disappoint.
95  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Electrum - Lightweight Bitcoin Client on: December 16, 2013, 10:59:56 PM

This is a good idea. I haven't used Electrum in a while, but allowing the offline computer to display which outputs go to an address for which it has the private keys is a good idea.

The time intervall between crossing can be very high but the longer the time the higher the chance of breaking the line.

No. "The dice have no memory." 100 wins does not change the probability of a loss on the next roll (although it may indicate loaded dice, but just-dice is provably fair).

I saw this weekend that Firstbits was not working.  I am not sure how long it has not been working.  Are you guys planning to get it working soon?

Thanks!
It's been disabled due to database load for a few weeks. There was no indication of an ETA on its re-enabling.

Does anyone know of a working firstbits provider, or an offline script?

Although I still have tons of ideas to make Deep Space Vagabond more fun, I just don't feel motivated enough for implementing them and maintaining this project anymore. However, I don't want to see it die, so if anyone would like to take it over, let me know. Note that I will consider the online reputation of any interested parties as I wouldn't like this project to fall in the wrong hands.
Sad to here that Sad
What is the used language? I may be interested in applying

Glad to see that you're interested!

It's mostly written in AHK (are you familiar with it?), as I wanted to experiment a little bit more with that language, and it allowed for real quick GUI prototyping...  Also, as stated in the original post, the actual address generation is delegated to vanitygen (with samr7's permission).

Could you elaborate on what you would plan to do with it?

I'm very proficient in AHK; I'd be willing to help.
