Thanks for the support guys  I think biggest flaw with the site is the number of products I have - near none, I am trying to track down a supplier who takes Bitcoin as I don't have a lot of my own money to invest. If I can find a good supplier I will try and get every game possible, and maybe in the future spread out to physical prizes (might be a little while until this happens!) @welsh how do you mean donations for amazon cards? |

In all honesty the site isn't about making money, I've had a lot of fun and learnt a lot by making it, in my opinion that's it own reward I'm really glad that you like it though, it's always good to hear praise! If you have any suggestions for the site, in terms of design, functionality or even casino games, let me know and I'll see if I can implement them |

Obviously I cant do conventional games like poker or blackjack as they dont really work, I have thought about a dice game but im not sure how to implement it |

I'm thinking a mystery box game for my next big idea  So you buy a box and it might have a prize in, or it might not Thoughts? Also thinking an rpg style game which I think could be really cool, but it might take a little while to code up  |

That seems fun! I'll definately play this a bit, is there a way to play this paid? Also, is it bugged by any chance? I've tried ~20 times and Box 1 NEVER has a prize. |

It's not bugged no, completely random. It works the same way as the slots, randomly picks a code and queries the chance to win with 2 numbers, if they match then you win, if not then you don't. I suppose box 1 was just unlucky It will cost twice what the slots and poke the code cost ($1 - 4 credits) but also has twice the odds I'll work on the paid version either tonight or tomorrow, I'll let you know when it's ready By the way my next idea for the casino is leveling/tiers so the more you play the higher your chance of winning. It'll work like if you win a code you get exp equal to the chance of winning the code, each tier will require a certain amount exp to advance and when you hit each tier you have a slightly higher chance of winning. It won't be overly high but I think it would be a nice incentive to play and perhaps make the games more engaging |

I really hope you get more attention from these games, the site is really nice, and it's an original idea, but it really isn't getting as much attention as it deserves, then some other guy launches just another dice site and gets 10 pages in no time, it's just so unfair. Have you tried advertising? |

Thanks for the support I'll try and get it ready by tonight but most likely it'll be ready tomorrow I think at the moment with the Bitcoin community people are more interested in hoarding BTC and perhaps are also interested in gambling them in the hope to get more, rather than cashing out buy spending them or perhaps by playing my games. I think when Bitcoin starts to take off I will have more interest I also think the lack of prizes effects how many people play, I don't have a lot of funding at the moment but hopefully I will be able to buy some new codes soon. I have a inexpensive advert setup with coinurl which drives a bit of traffic but again as I dont have a lot of funding it's hard, I do SEO on my site so it's rather well optimized. It's also a great portfolio piece for me Mystery Box now live |

There might be an issue /w credits - you might have to logout and back in for them to register
I have moved the credits from the sidebar to the bottom of the page + below each paid game (issue with credits not updating been fixed)

Been working on a leveling system for the casino today The idea being you get exp when you win a prize. The exp is equal to the chance you had to win the code, the higher the chance the less likely you are to win the prize. Each level will bring a boost of an extra 5% chance to win each prize. Think a code with 20% chance to win you'll get a 25% chance to win. I will also be extending the prizes on display to include exp as a random prize each time you don't win. The extra prizes will also include extra spins and hopefully in the future Bitcoin. I think this would be quite a nice addition to the casino and hopefully add a gaming experience to the casino One final idea for the future is a grid reference game where you are situated in a map and explore to find prizes *O means search for codes Each move you make will cost 1-2 credits and you have a chance to win a code each step, searching will also cost 1-2. Random text will be displayed each time you don't win - I'll try and come up with some funny stuff but I might look to hire someone to help me out if I get round to making this game |
