So i was sent my Singles (60GH/s) from BFL today, some are mine some are not, they are on their way home by fedex (796702866231 tracking numer).

I want 30btc for my single, since no one would pay that quantity i'm going to let you play for him, you can send 0.5btc to this address 1ENaP5bHzooasWonpffv2hENM2mqWeYTfa then post your txid here on the topic (don't let much time pass), when 30btc are collected i will send 0.1 bitcoin to Juice Rap News. The closest txid to the txid from the donation will get the single to wherever he lives free of charge. To make the result more comprehensible and unpredictable i will only use the last 4 digits of each txid.

I will not open the Single box IF the game ends before the singles arrive, i will ship as i get them.

Hope you guys like the idea. Please don't troll, if you have any ideas post them, if you know a way to rig the game tell me, to cancel the game in general.

PD: To see your txid, just double click on the transaction in your wallet, or look it up on blockchain, there is a transaction identifier there.

What happens if you don't get BTC 30 in time? Let's say within the next 2 difficulty periods?

Well the players would profit anyway by wining a Single for 0.5 so i didn't think about a time limit, but if the game gets too long i might as well just refund people who played. Let's call it two weeks from now.

You are a noob.  No one should send you any btc unless you provide suitable collateral to a neutral third party.

So you are saying you won't provide collateral?  You want people to blindly send you 0.5btc and hope you won't run off with it?

I don't think you'll get any responses.  It would be stupid for people to trust you.

Look, right there, over the sticky section of the marketplace, you have what in his times you would call a "trustable neutral third party" now he has big red scammer tag. Nothing stops your "trustable" 3rd to make a run either, it's about chances. I'm not forcing anyone to trust me, if people want to play they would decide to trust me, however you want to force me into your "trustable" people.

However you are right, if people is not interested i will have to close the game for lack of players and that's it, if i don't find other way i may use a 3rd party, for now you don't need to come and call people who want to play stupid.

I'm not.  I'm saying people blindly sending you 0.5btc would be stupid.  But, people have a right to be as stupid as they want.   Wink

Alrighty then. lol.

Edited: BTW. If anyone wants to play but also want a third party, post that, that helps me to identify how many people actually want to play but wouldn't in fear of a run on my part.

I'll take part of that action with an escrow, provided shipping & delivery within 7 days is included (I see you're in MX).

Why dont you have John K receive the funds, and once you send the unit with tracking, and signature required, and it is delivered, he will release the funds to you.  I am sure that you could work out John K releasing enough to cover your shipping costs from the btc if needed.  That sounds fair to me....
