*******************

Launch Status: ONLINE


*******************
Dear Beloved Bitcoin Community,

After much adieu, the Spirit of Satoshi would like to humbly announce her latest incarnation, Satoshi Dice Tribute.

She has watched with enthusiasm and pride as several other Dice operators released worthy and interesting games over the past several months – sites that innovated upon what Satoshi Dice had pioneered, and brought new value to BTC gaming community. The Spirit has not been idle. Today, she observes many of these advancements, and brings some more of her own to the community, in the quest for the perfect Dice game for us all to play while fiat crumbles around the world.


Satoshi Dice Tribute

Main Features

  • Beautiful new interface
  • Huge, instant payouts
  • Session-based
  • Bets are instant (they do not occur on the blockchain)
  • Zero-confirmation deposits
  • Comprehensive player statistics
  • Live social chat
  • Multi-language support
  • Provably fair, with user-defined client seed support
  • “Mood” system
  • Full API (have fun developers!)
  • Tribute system (details below)
  • 1% of gross earnings donated to Sean’s Outpost charity


What is Tribute?

Tribute brings social competition to Satoshi Dice. In real time, the three highest ranked players receive a piece of every bet placed by every other player. The ranking formula is confidential for now (and we may tweak it as we observe real use).

There are three Tribute positions:
  • King – Receives 0.1% of every bet placed by every player on the site
  • Lord – Receives 0.05%
  • Jester – Receives 0.02%

You’ll notice you have a rank as soon as you place a bet. Your rank determines whether you acquire a Tribute position. The top three players, in real time, achieve Tribute. Tribute holders can be knocked out at any moment, and rankings are entirely reset every day at midnight GMT (though the Tribute earned is kept forever).

What are “Moods”?

You will see references to “moods” in various places. The Spirit is not yet revealing details about what this is, but it will become increasingly important in the future.

How do the accounts work?

Satoshi Dice Tribute accounts are “session based.” When you first play, you’ll be asked to enter a Bitcoin address. This is the address your winnings will be sent to when you withdraw.

You’ll be given a Session Key – DO NOT LOSE THIS. The key is your password to access your session.

Sessions are perpetual; you can leave Bitcoins deposited in your session. You can also create a player name and track your career statistics.

For security, withdrawals of Bitcoins can only be sent to the Bitcoin address entered when the session was created. Funds are returned to the player’s BTC address after one month of inactivity (a protective measure in case players lose their Session Key).

Are bets provably fair?

Of course! Satoshi Dice pioneered provably fair gaming and Tribute uses a robust verification system so players can check that each bet they place is fair. Further, players are able to provide their own client seed if they wish.

Is the original Satoshi Dice gone?

Nevar! The original is now called Satoshi Dice Classic, and operates just as before. The site has been redone with a few new requested features.  Classic and Tribute run separately, and bets placed on Classic do not affect player rankings or Tribute stats.

What if I have questions?

Post them here or email the Spirit directly at support(@)satoshidice(.)com

LAUNCH PROMOTION

The first 1000 players who lose 0.1 BTC from their wagers will have 0.1 BTC deposited back in their account (ie - roughly $20 of risk free gaming!).

Enjoy!!

Launch Notes:

- Live site is running with decent performance now.

Known Bugs:
- Automatic promo is not functional (the 0.1 BTC is not being sent). It will send when we get it fixed to any accounts owed.

- There is a bug with some players getting kicked from their session. Restarting the computer tends to fix this (we know, not a great solution) Fixed

- There is a bug which throws up "Error Processing Request" on some bets. The bet still occurs, but is not displayed or logged where the player can see it. So, some players think they have BTC removed from their account when in fact it was a bet loss. Fixed
 
- While the hot wallet gets broken into numerous bitcoin inputs, when there are zero confirmed funds in the hot wallet, players get a Max Bet of zero (meaning they can't bet). This gets corrected whenever a new block is found, and the problem will resolve itself over time. Fixed

- There is a memory leak causing progressive laggyness platform-wide. This should be fixed by Wednesday night (Nov 6th) .  Fixed

- Some players are having deposits not show up. We have a temporary script run a couple times per day to catch these, and have a more permanent solution on the way.

^^^ We are working to kill these bugs ASAP.


Playing Tips:

- Press Enter to roll once automatically. Press Shift to Martingale automatically.
- Check the Live Chat if you have questions
- API is available here: https://satoshidice.com/api
- "Tribute Earned" is a cumulative total of all the tribute you've received from other players
- To clarify: Having rank gets you tribute, but having tribute doesn't get you rank.

So essentially I can deposit .1 BTC, make one bet at 50% and freeroll it? If I lose how do I get my refund and how long will it take before I get my .1 BTC back?

The 0.1 bonus will be sent to you as a bitcoin transaction (over the blockchain) to your deposit address in the SD account. It should happen immediately once you are down a net of 0.1 btc.

Deposited 0.1, played a little bit at the start when the site was extremely slow, half the rolls didn't process and the other half took a minute or more sometimes. After a while it cleared up and it became a much better experience. Played my 0.1 up to 0.21 (with a detour past 0.23 and then 0.06) before I lost it all. Was instantly credited with a fresh 0.1 thanks to the promotion. Withdrew that and a few mBTC extra which corresponds to the tribute I received.

Site looks nice and functions well (after the initial problems at launch), but it doesn't seem to have any unique advantages over sites like Just-Dice or PrimeDice. The tribute-thing is a cute gimmick, but will ultimately only affect a very small number of people.

Update on the slowness - we believe it's caused by the interaction of our server and our DDoS protection. Queries that take 60ms on our test server are taking 1.3 seconds on the live site (under DDoS protection). Continuing to work on this throughout the day. This game will be fast. Thank you for your patience.

The lag is really bad, please solve it ASAP.

Also, after I get in, I cannot find any clue if the bonus is still available to me.

I can't make any bet, the "bet max" value is zero, though I have way more than that in my account.

Edit: Everything is working now Smiley

Okay, it is worse now, the site is not accessible with the "504 Gateway Time-out" or "502 Bad Gateway" error.
