This topic had its last post in 2015 and the OP (also the owner of luckyflop probably) has sent his application to another sig camp today.

My guess is, it didn't go well for luckyflop and they are not in the business anymore.

The domain "https://luckyflop.eu" don't respond neither. (tried with a VPN too.)

yeah, as I tried to visit them I think they shutdown long time ago,... I just happened to see them when I was looking on some posts of Carra which is said to be one of the respected managers that time,...

anyways, it might be some issues on the past that they haven’t solved. But it’s a waste actually,...

Managing a casino is a serious business. Most people think it as a passive income where you just set up your money printer and forget but it is nowhere close.

and now there is great competition in this casino market, every month new casinos appear that offer the same games and the same promotions. This year alone, there were many signature campaigns run by casinos that were unable to stay longer than 1 month and now use the strategy of running signature campaign for 1 month and then stop and return months later for the campaign to resume for 1 month. I see this as a sign that the competition in this niche must be very large to the point that casinos are not able to survive. In summary I believe that people who run casinos know that they should be serious because they invest a lot of money, but the problem must be in the fact that they don't do a market research to see how the demand is going and if the market is not saturated.

2015 it's an eternity, another century in the crypto industry. They've certainly closed down before the 2017 wave.

I haven't known a single one who hasn't made  debut after the management of yahoo or hhampuz, perhaps this was handle by othe CMs?  would you give us an example?

You are right mate. Nobody understands that a business needs too much patience and dedication to succeed, and when it is about casino, it is all about money the company has in their hands. I felt very sad seeing this thread as we are obviously discussing someone's failure. @cabalism13, no offense, don't get me wrong for my words but there were many businesses I know of, which were popular in early days but went missing due to funding issues.

well, my perception is different towards the user, Am really amazed for his guts for joining a competitor's campaign despite of having a failed Project, or maybe he was long doing this after that,... it takes a lot of guts IMO, and setting aside the pride that you have to start once again. But i think he doesn't plan to.

I think Blackjack.fun suits the above description. The signature campaign was managed by Sujonali. They initially had like 3 weeks then went off-grid and came back last month with another campaign. They even tried to promote in Games and Rounds but it didn't get much traction.

They shut down their casino in early 2016. Most likely because they couldn't attract enough players to keep their business running and from their latest posts back then, it is obvious that there were too many bugs on their platform.
By googling their name, this is the only relevant result I could find:

well, my perception is different towards the user

What if the account changed hands?

End is not a failure, but a new beginning and if he has got the guts to turn his failure into a finding, get up again and move ahead with a new beginning, then nothing else can be better than that. I know that finding a reputed and established business owner working for some other business some day and then we come to know about their circumstances, we have nothing but 👏

Actually that's quite possible too but we cannot really know without an evidence or as long as the (new) owner doesn't do something stupid. (like starting to post in a local board which he didn't post before)

Or even start asking for loans?
Can't they be asked to sign a message with an old address just so to let them prove their ownership of the account (not necessary but it will remove doubts from our minds). Now you will ask that who are we? Consider ourselves as common people.

What if the account changed hands?

The account definitely changed hands. Members should keep and eye on it.
The last post before the account when into along period of inactivity was on March 07, 2016. According to BPIP, the account woke up on 12/15/2019 after the password got reset by email, this is a very common sign if the account has changed hands either through being sold or hacked.



After 3 years of Inactivity, the first post was made on the very day the account woke up (December 15, 2019) and posting style has been totally different since then.

Even if a casino service failed back then why would someone come back to post for bounties using the same profile?

Theres no doubt with this matter because we can eventually compare the posting styles and the behavior of such user on just looking up into his profile.
After being inactive for a long time and made out some post.Well this doesnt precisely or automatically considered on changing hands but you can
make presumptions specially if we can see that it do have some status or change password or emails.

About on the gambling site then i havent seen this one which is understandable yet this had been on 2015 which im not still on this forum
but as other mentioned this doesnt able to get some attraction and eventually failed.

Lastly, a gambling site owner wont really just woke up again and tend to join bounties for him to earn pennies.

It is really nowhere close to that if an operator thinks that way he will find himself eaten by the competitor, for them to earn money they need to spend money and a lot of effort, yea there is money to be made for operator but with so many gambling sites vying for the big slice of the market, they are not resting they set up massive promotion and a lot of giveaways to keep the gambling site always in the limelight.

What I really like about that kind of strategy by now is what Roobet is doing they really are spending lot of effort to giveaways and promotion and in return they get noticed, don't know how long they'll come up with it but the longer the better for much exposure.

Was luckyflop really that a good gambling site? 2015? I've never been in this space from that time but I guess 0.08 for a monthly pays isn't that big and in the year 2015 bitcoin's price was really not that high.

Such suspicion is reasonable, because some gambling sites were popular in their era so that they closed sites like Directbet and even Rollin opened an auction for the site, but after they closed the site they no longer had any activity here. So, even if they wake up and then start their activities again here, I think it will be something to look forward to, because maybe they have a new project to develop and not about a different style of posting and it's only natural that suspicions arise.

They may have closed their business or maybe gone bankrupt. No one cares know what happened with them. There are many gambling sites which comes and go. Only the few trusted ones are able to continue their business for long term.

However the admin of the luckyflop is still active and he has made a post to participate in Re: Tower.bet Signature and avatar campaign
