chopcoin.io - The new interactive Bitcoin game!

What the exact differences between pot mode and buy-in mode? BYW, it's really a creative game.

I don't get the difference 

Can you make an example calculation for old and new system?

Maybe it's this:

  * before: each food blob was worth a certain amount of satoshi, and so the number of food blobs in the play area was limited by the amount that people had bought in with. At the end of the game any remaining food blobs are divided equally between the players. Sometimes if there was a lot of uneaten food in the play area it was +EV to buy in with 1 second remaining, because your share of the uneaten food was more than the buy-in.

  * now: each food blob is only worth "points", which don't have a fixed BTC value, so the game can create them without constraint. At the end of the game the pot is divided between players in proportion to their mass, so there's always enough money in the pot to pay everyone. Uneaten food blobs aren't divided between players, so it's never +EV to buy in at the last second.

Am I close?

I would like eternal life and eyes that never degrade to spend a good 5 years full time playing this game.

You added chat? oh fuck i really should not log on to check that, it is just too awesome and i have other work which will never get done. I'll end up a homeless tramp stealing wireless to play or something in 6 months if i log on now.

We'll really hope, it will never get so far that you end up a homeless tramp, but thx for praising us.
The chat is the newest concept, but we are looking foward to larger updates to bring more people to the paid playgrounds which is the main target for our game

We hope you stay a ChopCoin member

Yeah i will keep checking in but i got a seriously addiction problem with these chopcoin/agar games.

It would be good to get people gambling more for sure, graduating them from faucet upwards via super micro stakes maybe idk. Having people click to buy into games after winning from faucet might prepare them.

Hey doog,

i refunded you for the open key

Thanks for that!

Dooglus comes here often, looks like he is interested in this game, is he the one of the investors ?

Nope, I just enjoy the game.

What's the fee for the 'pot' game? It seemed like it was 8% last time I played. If so, isn't that a little high?

[dooglus]

Reported 301 posts with 98% accuracy, beware!

Wow, that's impressive. I thought I was doing well with my:

    "You have reported 20 posts with 95% accuracy"

I wish I could find out which of my 20 posts was "inaccurate". Because they were all clearly scammers.

Correct, recently it was 8%. That might seem rather high but we also used 5%, 2% and even no fees at all depending on the playground. However; we are currently experimenting with the percentage we take as a fee to figure out how to balance our costs (servers, development, faucet) with our income (advertisement, fee). Any advice how you found this balance with just-dice is appreciated.

The rallies are 10 minutes and I understand that, if I play longer than 10 minutes, I can raise my rank. I play really slowly and I can not be bigger just only in 10 minutes

How about an optional buy-in for faucet to double the pay?

[zcxvbs]

I found a game on App store(iOS) that's remarkably similar to Chopcoin.io, it called "Agar.io", looks like Chopcoin need a mobile version too.

A good idea, we will discuss this.

Not that important right now but we think about it in the future

Agar.io is the original game that chopcoin is based on, from miniclip.

Yes, I agree that chopcoin needs an app. Apps run faster through their own rather than through a browser.

thats a cool game we needed it a long time ago also its good that you have a  faucet on it for trying it out for free thank you

Dear Chopcoiners,

today our most beloved currency broke heavy resistance and conquered the 300$ level. Bears were slain and now it's time for the bulls to enjoy themselves. Therefore we invite you to a spontaneous tournament tonight at 21.00 UTC. Buy-in is 0.001 BTC and the duration 30 minutes. We will add triple the amount of the pot by minute 25 to the pot, meaning that we will triple every buy-in that was paid up until minute 25. If for example 50 buy-ins would have been paid by minute 25 we would take the amount of the regular pot of 0.05 and add 0.15 for a total pot of 0.2. It's up to you how costly this feast will be to us so spread the word!
Looking forward to see you in the playgrounds,

The chopcoin.io team
