Hey I've had this one idea for quite some time now and I've noticed that no other site has anything like it.
I believe it would be a nice feature to implement it to MagicalDice and make it even more unique than other sites.
The basic idea behind it is: "changing win chance % from 0.0001% to 0.01% or to 98%" it's always the rolls at 0.00 to 98.00 or 98.00 to 0. Why not be able to bet on 1% and aiming for the roll 77?
A standard drag and place function to place your bets from different angles on the number outcomes isn't to be found on any sites, it's weird how no one has implemented it yet.
I'm having some trouble explaining this at the moment but the basic idea is to be able to aim your bets depending on your winning chance.
Let's say you are playing 40% and u feel like a lot of numbers between 30-70 are appearing, but you don't wanna bother skipping them with 0 bets or change your strategy, why not be able to place bets between the numbers 30-70 while still maintaining a 40% win chance. Numbers are a circle anyway, 99.99 is as close to 0.00 as 99.98, give the players the power to choose their own numbers they wanna bet on.
Hope this idea would be appreciated by anyone else than just me. Thanks.
This idea has been discussed at multiple websites in fact. Dooglus from just-dice has discussed this with players more than a year ago iirc, and he did say he's interested in implementing it, but I haven't heard much from it again.
999dice does actually allow this if betting via the api. (inb4 999dice scam accusations, I'm not endorsing them, I'm saying it's possible)
Moneypot's api allows this and even more. With moneypots' api, you can specify multiple winning ranges in one bet.
Think about it this way: the player is allowed to select the maximum number and minimum number and anything in between is a win, anything else is a loss. The math is then not that hard at all:
(maxRoll-MinRoll)=chance to win. (assuming minroll is inclusive and maxroll is exclusive, in other words roll >= minRoll but roll < maxRoll
(100 - edge)/(maxRoll-minRoll) = payout
So: (100 -1)/(78-77) = 99x payout. In this scenario, anything from 77.00 to 77.99 would win, with the same payout as any other 1% bet. (0-0.99, 99.0-99.99)
Betting like this would make away with betting high/low, since you/re specifying a very specific range for winning numbers.
