Seuntjies DiceBot -Multi-Site, multi-strategy betting bot for dice. With Charts!

[honey515]

Hi Seuntjie,
Thank you for the bot. I've been using it for a couple of months and it's been working great until recently,
I've been experiencing some problems where sometimes the bets stop being reflected to the balance or is not reflected correctly. (e.g. the balance doesn't bounce back after winning after a losing streak, or deducts more from the balance than the loss amount)

It took away most of my balance once, and now I'm a little scared to use it.

Could you please advise on how I can prevent this from happening?

Thanks,

I have not experienced anything like this since v 3.1.0 ish  (if you're still using an older version, it's your own fault. There're updates for a reason). Obviously, if this is actually the bots' fault, this is a very serious issue and I'd like to fix it asap. so:

On which site are you betting?
Have you compared your balance on the site vs in the bot?
Are you betting at the correct chance you think you're betting at?

What sometimes happen, especially if you have a stop condition set it the bot places the bet but the stats aren't updated. So it just doesn't show the new balance.
Can you describe your settings? or even better, send me and exported settings file? If you don't want to share it publicly, you can email me on contact@seuntjie.com
I need as much details as you can to accurately diagnose/reproduce the bug.

Hi Seuntjie
Sorry for the late reply.
I was planning to check and see if the same phenomenon occurs again, before sending you the setttings but was unable to since the primedice update, thus late reply.

I was using the latest version of the bot and I also checked that the balances displayed in the bot and the site match. (the balance had not recovered on win after consecutive losses)
I've sent you the screenshot of the bot when this occured, to the e-mail address displayed on your top page about 2 weeks ago from e-mail yu******515@gmail

Please let me try if the same occurs again, after I'm able to login to primedice through the bot, and if so,
allow me to send you the settings for further investigation.

Thanks for your efforts!

I can't say deleting dicebot.db while the bot is open is a good idea. I'm surprised this doesn't cause more issues.

To prevent the crash, open the settings window (view->settings) and disable the setting to automatically look for missing seeds. If that doesn't work, please let me know.

I did as you said, but also when disabling to look for the seeds I still get the .NET Framework error.

I also noted an easier way on 'bypassing' the bot to write to the Dicebot.db file:
- Start the bot.
- Upon loading, assuming no Dicebot.db file is yet present/deleted after former session/first start, the bot creates the Dicebot.db file of 5kb size.
- When bot is loaded, and not yet actively running, delete the Dicebot.db file.
- Activate the bot, and then it creates a 0kb size Dicebot.db file which it doesn't write to (no HDD activity), yet places the bets very fast.



Personally, I like it when the bot does not utilize the Dicebot.db file and/or doesn't write to it. Because this way, I noted it is possible to bet smaller bets at the same high speed as with larger bets (which normally is not), without any issues (at least, not on 999dice).

I don't have access to that email at this moment (i'm on my lappy, the account is on my home PC), so I'll take a look at it as soon as I get home. If you are able to reproduce the problem, please let me know and send me as many details as you can.

Did you click save settings after disabling the feature? It might also require a bot restart to work? Sorry if this questions seems offensive, people forget/miss things sometimes.

I'll take a look at fixing the crash and speeding up the DB writes. I will not be providing the option to disable the bet logging though. You completely lose your ability to verify your bets and make yourself vulnerable to the site cheating you if you remove the logs, but I do understand your want for faster bets. I never noticed the DB causes such a bottleneck, since i have been able to bet at much faster speeds (10-15 bets/s) with the db enabled, also on a normal hdd.

any one know any script which will increase our bet size auto matially according to our balance?

No problem 
And yes, I did clicked the save settings (and checked it, after another .NET error), as well as having the bot run for a few times (hence, restarted it to).

Can't you just edit a config file ?
Why are people even using this what good is it for anything ? Do you let it bet while you sleep or something ?
What settings are the best ? I can't see how using a bot can help at all. Seems using bots is just gamblers fallacy. Unless someone can prove me wrong ? But I don't think so.

have you tried browsing https://bot.seuntjie.com/Scripts.aspx for scripts? I think there is one that does something similar to what you want called "Percentage Martingale".

I'll look into it. I made the writes to dicebot.db asynchronous and personally saw no increase in betting speed, but i think I was able to fix the crash for the next release.

There is no monetary benefit from using the bot. In fact, it probably reduces your variance so it increases the probability you'll lose in the long run. The purpose of the bot isn't to make money, it's to make dice more interesting, as is the purpose of gambling to entertain you, not to make money.

[seuntjie]

MonetPot is back up again and you can now use the DiceBot app again to bet. Go to https://bot.seuntjie.com/mpdb for quick bets and 0.9% edge

for programmer mode when runsim() it keep giving me lose result. i tried the Basic Martingale and 2 Wins scripts simulate and i keep losing. This should not like this.

For PD runsim work but rollin is not working.

[seuntjie]

hmm iirc rollins provably fair implementation doesn't work in the bot because I can't find a mersenne twister algorithm that works in c# and produces the same results as the JS mersenne twister used by rollin and this is probably why it doesn't work. I'll try to get it working again.

Edit: Got it working again, so next release the rollin sims will work normally.
Also got cloudflare working again, so fortunejack and bitdice will work normally again.

I'm in talks with PD about a fix for the bot, but it's taking forever, so I can't give an ETA.
In talks with bitsler about the bot, but also waiting for them to fix some API calls before I can finish the implementation. I can confirm that Bitsler IS being added to DiceBot.

[seuntjie]

Beta version of ‪#‎DiceBot‬ that allows login to PD using access tokens. Only for users that know how to get the token: https://bot.seuntjie.com/botpage.aspx?id=32
Preliminary support for bitsler for testing as well

Edit: Oh look, PD made an update that now uses API keys and that broke my fix. So sorry, it's still unusable for now

How can I login to FortuneJack with Dicebot 3.1.8 Beta ? I tried many times and once successfully, but then I logged in via the website to make a deposit and Dicebot lost connection. Can you give some advice how to login? 

[seuntjie]

Fortunejack does not allow concurrent connections. So to log in with the bot you need to log OUT of your browser first, wait a minute and then log in with the bot. Otherwise the browser tries to re-authenticate itself and ends up logging the bot out. If you try to log in with your browser while the bot is logged in, the browser will "win" and log the bot out.

FJ also has another level of DDOS protection that the bot cannot get passed. The captcha that you sometimes see when logging in to FJ. If that captcha is active, the bot won't be able to log in.

I  use logout in browser, deleted cookies, deleted cache, but the same result. Just the message appears http://prntscr.com/bwwla9 and then nothing happens, or sometimes  "login is failed". 

[seuntjie]

the cloudflare process can take up to a minute sometimes. And Like I said, if they have the anti ddos captcha enabled, the bot can't log in.

I just checked, at the time of writing, the captcha is active

version 3.1.8 download .. but bitsler login error
http://i.hizliresim.com/5VbdXM.jpg
fortunejack login Error
and Version number error

[seuntjie]

version 3.1.8 download .. but bitsler login error

fortunejack login Error
and Version number error

Bitsler needed to make changes to their login procedure a few hours after I released the beta that broke logins for the bot. Still waiting for them to provide me with the new login requirements.
PD launched API keys around the same time and that also broke the fix I did for PD, so pd logins doesn't work again.

Can you give me more details about the FJ error? also, see the three or four posts just above/before yours.

I usually don't update the version numbers for beta version.

[MineGuru]

FJ Error Details,

username password entered,

Cloudflare warning clicking.

After waiting (1-5 min)... nothing happens, just staying..

It seems that if you keep the cloudflare warning open, the bot doesn't finish logging in. Make sure you close the dialog as soon as it pops up. I'll look for a workaround to this.

[seuntjie]

Seuntjie, I have around 30+ custom scripts that I would like to share. If I gave them all to you, would you verify the code and put it on your site for others to use? Also they don't really have names because most of the methods of betting are not traditional martingale, so if yes, you would have to name them as well 

You can upload them to the site using the scripts page. You'd need to register an account to do it. You can thumb suck the names for them.

Scripts aren't shown on my site until after I review them anyway, so it'd be best if you submitted them yourself (then they get linked to your account on the site as well, which will have some significance in the future).
