Any idea why I only got half the pot on my round?

O RLY?

Poop..

What's the amount and the receiving address I should send to?

My apologies! I'll make a note to fix that today (thought we'd changed it.. hmm)

When bitcoinduit had the brief downtime a few days ago, you extended all the rounds expire time by 10 hours. Can you put them back now?  For example, "The Forever Game" was 48 hours, and now it's 58.  Could you put it back to 48?  There have been bets, so it's been reset since the downtime.

Thanks!

Actually I'm thinking it might even be a good idea to reset all of those old games to min(their original expire time, 12 hours).  They're never going to end at this rate.

Ok. Let's have a vote.

I'm all for 12 hour expiration.

Anyone else? Let's have a vote. Votes tallied in 4 hours.

I vote set all the rounds greater than 12 hours to 12 hours.  My round, The Forever Game, would be affected, and I'm fine with that.

[ineededausername]

I'm voting YES for my proposal.

Whoops. I think you totally missed my other post (I thought you just ignored it before). Sorry about seeming to be rude.

There is a .355 transaction and a .315 transaction at that address. The .315 transaction was because my bet was last and won the jackpot. The pot size was .71 when the round ended, but I only got .355.

EDIT: I'm for setting the rounds to 12 hrs, but only if a day or so of advanced warning is given on the site beforehand.

EDIT2: Fixed the blockexplorer link.

Ah. I was still sleepy when I wrote you back.

The rule changes that I implement are for new rounds starting. If I mess with the older round logic I risk breaking things.

I'm happy to refund you half the pot if you want. Let me know.

http://bitcoinduit.com/helpmegetbackto1btc -- expiring very soon!  It'll probably end after the next deposit so you stand a good chance of making something like ~40%.  On the other hand you're welcome to put in 1btc, and then it might not end after all!

I see.

I would be very happy to get a refund, btw.

The 12 hour limit for all the round is interesting, that means more deposits and more chance to get the jackpot

Since my last one finally died, with 43 deposits!!, I created another one just like it..

Last one: http://bitcoinduit.com/The_Longest_Round

New one: http://bitcoinduit.com/The_Longerest_Round

Received the other half of the pot, thanks.

Ah rule changes, anyway wasted my last coins so couldn't have kept round going anyway. Still, I don't like changing stuff without any notice, for those people you got email. Not sure if it would have been possible to inform those who have unfilled bit with email about change in rounds they are in.

Hmm.. People don't like change. It's true. If you go back through the thread, you'll see that there was notice.

What's your receiving address? I'll send you a gift.

Un-noticed change, no need, I lost my share.

Just a suggestion: add Jackpot % in the list of games too, it would contain all needed info then.

Good point.. We have never sent a single email to anyone though. I forgot we even did email collection to be honest. That was implemented more as a record keeping function for the users.

Next time there's a rule change, we'll spam everyone.
