Same here, for BitBears. I emailed the transaction details to the site's email address. This also happened to me with the Orb game, but after emailing the person they must have manually corrected the error and made me "owner". This makes me wonder whether there is an issue with the template's use of the Blockchain API that renders it unable to recognize pending payments?
Oh yeah, BitBears has been having some issues. I had the same thing you mentioned happen to me with
this transaction, despite the fact that I sent my payment 5 minutes before the guy who actually got it (my transaction also confirmed 50 minutes before his...). This was 12 days ago -- I have been waiting on a refund ever since.
I also successfully bought the Bears
at 0.2689 BTC on the 17th as "hugo", but the server was disconnected shortly after I purchased them, so nobody could buy the whole time I "owned" them. Not sure if anybody else got the "meh, looks like we are disconnected from our bitcoin server" message, but it lasted the entirety of the two days I owned them until the timer reset -- I know because I would have just bought the Bears from myself to keep it going (but obviously couldn't). Seems fair, right? This was 9 days ago. I am still waiting on a refund of this as well.
I've gotten refunds from BitBears before with no problems (and got refunded 0.05 BTC from a purchase that didn't go through from earlier today), but after initially talking about these transactions with the bitbears@gmail address, I have not heard a peep in over a week.
Vink, if you are out there, I am really looking forward to any sort of response...
