I'm not sure I really understand what you're saying. Are you proposing that in return for SatoshiDICE suspending its transaction spam for one day, that a developer should go work for them for some time period (30, 60, 90 days?) and pay or receive some Bitcoins? This is quite confusing.
I'm suggesting that Satoshi Dice modify their centrally controlled/easier to change system for 90 days in return for the cost of a single competent developer for that same period.
I suspect that changing the system in the ways you describe may be an existential threat to this beloved operation, so I'm suggesting that it might be more tolerable to compromise. Basically Satoshi Dice stops long enough to get the problem fixed, and in return BTF commits real resources to actually fixing the problem.
with no criticism intended for satoshidice, this problem is trivial to fix as we described and with the income they generate they could easily address this issue without going to the players for funding. We addressed it ourselves with a team of 2
in a matter of hours.
Simple Solution:Host 2 games
1st game - there is no loss payout unless the player opts to pay a fee for one by including jdice-r in a mulibet
2nd game - blockchain spam as normal.
Premium Solution:Add an account system.
We have to note that for many gamblers, requiring the creation of an account is a detractor.
It increases the trust required in the site as they now act as a bank in addition as a bet processor.
It also eliminates any trust that could be had in a progressive jackpot system.
Why ? because when you bet against a progressive jackpot on the blockchain all bets are public record. Should the house try to claim its own jackpot it would have to bet against it like all other players, increasing the pot and taking the risk another player may collect the jackpot first.
When there is an account & login setup the house can simply keep hashing potential bets until it finds a winner and claim the jackpot with zero risk and zero blockchain tx fees.
