[WTS]Domain + Code - bitscratchers.com

[Sothh]

Hey guys,

I think this could be really big, but I am no good at marketing and I can't seem to drive home sells.  I am putting both the domain and all the back end up for auction.  I spend several days programming the system and I will be more than happy to help the buyer set up the site for themselves.

I have uploaded proof of ownership to the site: http://bitscratchers.com/owner.txt

I have made about .6 BTC in profit off the site since its launch about a week and a half ago.  I have not had any new players in the past few days though.

Starting bid is 1 BTC.  The auction will end five days from now.  (The 22th)

Is it provably fair?

Is it provably fair?

Provably fair is a big problem.  No game is fair as the house always has an edge.  The only thing you can prove is the house has the same edge that they say they have.  I don't list the house edge as I change it often, and so there is no point in a provably fair system.

Its as fair as buying real scratch tickets, which is what I am trying to emulate with the ods. 

I would be willing to implement a provably fair system if thats what the buyer wants, though I personally do not use one.  The buyer will be the one to set their own ods and how "fair" the system is.

Provably fair = proof that the results are not rigged, not proof that odds are 50%.

As in the results are not changed after you purchase?  That is trivial to implement.  Infact, I will implement that now.

Website has been updated with simple provable fairness.

You should add a countdown timer. I'll be watching this.

[BIGMERVE]

Ill start the bid at 1.

[dozerz]

i will bid if theres a timer.

[Professor James Moriarty]

 You could look up at the search for timer,  there was a decent one implemented via image posting.

 The idea looks good but the execution is not , you made 0.6 from it but decided to sell it for 1 ? If it looks too good to be true , its not.

It's always better to know when the auction is ACTUALLY ending, without extensions etc.



Take a look at this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=285166.0 - It will show you how to add a countdown timer.

i dont know what you're getting at but the site works fine, it just needs marketing and TLC.

Please add an auction timer, and I will be interested in bidding

I want to add a timer but I am unable to edit my posts.  I will message a mod.

You don't have to edit the post just put a timer in a new reply.

Don't message a mod. Auctions are suppose to be uneditable, they will just tell you to post a new reply. Auctions are suppose to remain unedited to prevent details and promises from being changed. Also, bids etc.
