Question,  what is "actmyname" blacklist and why are several people who have replied in this thread on it?  I've noticed that some of their replies dont make a whole lot of sense but I attribute that to maybe using a translator of some sort.  I see Luckmcfly, Michellee, and Tellek Garing are all on it.  Are these accounts that are known for spamming or something?  I found it by clicking the "trust" icon on these user's names.  I'm still learning the in/outs of bitcointalk.

Are these accounts that are known for spamming or something?

The feedback comments should be simple enough. Spamming users will generally reply to a thread with little thought, usually using some simple and vague language and ideas to pad their posts and create a sense of quality, despite the substance being nothing more than a vacuous chasm of words.

OP is not being active for whole month now and this is not a good sign of being a reputable casino , imagine abandoning His Own ANN Thread for that long without even a single update? instead asking for not related posts in His thread.

Am not sure if this will answer your issue now mate so hope for the best about your balance .

I personally think that your house edge for playing against house money is way too high.

You're probably going to find much more interest in your product if you just reduce that slightly.

The idea is interesting, but this has been done many times before (transaction hash based gaming). I don't think that it has gone mainstream for a very good reason, and that is that it is just less engaging and less spontaneous than the regular dice or whatnot.

[rijaljun]

I haven’t really tried this one out. I saw in the OP that this is a fully working experimental site, but did it really pushed through and went well? And has anyone really shared their experience with the site here in the thread? I don’t know if I mislook the replies or something, but I don’t see much. It would be ideal if there are feedbacks about user experience here so newcomers will know what to expect.

OP created this thread a month ago but now there's no update even the op did not active last January 25 which is tomorrow is the first month did he not online. I think there a problem to Op or their casino  that's why OP did not online in this time. And if this Op did not online after 3 weeks for sure this thread is already abandoned by Op.

Probably didn't work well and decided to abandon the project? but the I can still access the site and I think there's no player on their website also I found that the chat on the left side is distorted and doesn't look good. There are active games but I am not sure if that was real or what was that, let's hope OP will comeback and answer if what was the progress or plans on his site.

ya.ya.yo!

The first-week presence of the developer is good but for some reason, he stopped posting here it's been a month is he thinking that he will get nothing out of this forum because of the spamming issue, or he's not getting players to play here I don't see traffic improving, I guess one of the reason is lack of interaction and uses of an unpopular coin like Vertcoin when there are a lot of good coins in the market.  

[joeperry]

... I guess one of the reason is lack of interaction and uses of an unpopular coin like Vertcoin when there are a lot of good coins in the market.  

I don't think having that coin is the problem some gambling sites have their own coins to introduce to the community but what are the perks of using this Vertcoin to his website. Lack of promotion and interaction to possible players is the problem that I see or probably players don't play to new kind of games and stick with the known casino games and sports betting. Although I'm interested to new games like this since I am getting bored with with the common games, maybe the OP can give a promotion where we can test his site without depositing or giving as free Vertcoins for some interested users who wanted to try his game.

Probably they don't want the response of users here as he point out some user that blacklisted by Actmyname due to spamming on his last post. There's also tough competition here so if you are small Casino that planning to market here, The chance of success is very low and this is one important angle that a marketing guy usually check before he create a budget proposal for the said campaign.

The competition may be tough because of the presence of the big dog in Cryptocurrency but they should have considered that already when they are planning to build the site and promote it here in Bitcointalk, there's a lack of dedication on the part of the developer, there are small casinos that started small here and because of how they interact they gain a lot of players and supporters.

[Kakmakr]

OP, so thank you for answering my question on the house edge. I also want to know... what happens if the "winnings" is not enough to cover the miners fees? (A lot of these smaller casino games do not have a lot of players... so you might end up playing by yourself...so how do you refund or payout in instances like this?)

Thank you for giving me a detailed explanation on the house edge thingy..... I had to go and read the whole thing again, just to understand the concept a little better. 

[magneto]

The site is definitely not the most professional.

Also as others have said, I don't think that this method of gaming is going to take off any time soon. It seems archaic and slow, and not as exciting as the other game types that are on offer on centralized casinos.

Advertising 0.01% house edge when playing against the house is around ~5% is also misleading imho.

[mak013]

You have to work hard with the site if you want to see gamblers. There is nothing in the chat so switch it off until you`ll see some gamblers ready to talk. The text in the middle looks strange and empty, when it is short enough. And the problems with transactions as said other members. I think it was a wrong decision to make thread before the site is tested enough.

If you have ever played on "Provably Fair" casino site before,  you may feel like you have to jump through to many hoops just to verify everything is "fair".  I expect traditional casino sites to suffer from these issues,  not crypto based sites considering that it's crypto based. I aim to end that feeling of wondering if all your rolls have been "provably fair" because I dont like it either.  So I developed what I think is a very simplistic solution to the decades old "Provably Fair" algorithms that doesnt rely upon anything other than the value of a block's hash.  There is another project (that I discovered AFTER I developed this) called Polycash that's sort of similar but MAN is it difficult to understand or use!  I'm a dev and I couldnt even figure it out,  so a normal joe is absolutely never going to be able to use it.  Also,  it needs to be stated that this is anything but groundbreaking.  If this sounds like Bitcoin Mining itself,  that's because IT IS.  This game works exactly like Bitcoin's own mining process.  So if you learn how to play this game,  you'll also be learning how bitcoin mining itself works and that to me is a win.  The more people who know how BTC works,  the better I think.

The main idea of Hash Wars is this:
You make a bet as to how many times a certain number will show up in a FUTURE blockhash of a selected crypto (such as bitcoin).  If you guess right and you're bet is one of the top 3 highest bets (sound familiar?  I also aim to teach about how Bitcoin mining works lol),  you win a portion of the pot split between the top 3 player bets.  Thats the entire game in a nutshell.  There are other nuances such as the number you select and the slot you select but that's really all there is to it.  Very simple.

To me, basing the roll on a blockhash rather than some algorithmic randomization solves ANY kind of "Provably fair" problems because:

• Theres no "algorithm" to understand that requires Doctorate level math knowledge
• Theres no "Server seed / Client seed" worries.  95% of all sites that use these almost always make it impossible to EASILY figure out how to change the client seed for every single roll which defeats the purpose of "Provably Fair" IMO.
• Theres no need to record the result of EVERY single freaking roll and it's "seeds" in order to validate every roll.  One can do that using any block explorer.  So you no longer need to be a developer to vet the site's "fairness" by recording everything in an sqlite db.  Anyone with access to a block explorer and web.archive.org can do it.
• It gives the player more of a sense of security since nothing is hidden or difficult to validate.

One of the features of this site that I personally like (a bit prejudiced here since I'm the house lol) is that the house doesnt need to fund the site in order for it to function.  Players do the funding, so there is no need for a "house bankroll" either.  The house (or rather I) can do so if it so chooses and I do plan to do so in the early stages just to get things going but it's not actually a requirement.  I'm sure there are probably other gambling sites out there that do something similar,  but truthfully,  I have no idea what such a game is called.  Progressive pot?  So there's no possibility that the site would ever fold due to insufficient funds since it can literally run itself without any bank roll from the house and the server is literally run from my basement, so I dont really pay any server costs (I'm a dev after all so my basement actually has datacenter racks in it lol)

Deposits:	Bitcoin or Vertcoin
Withdrawals:	100% automated and processed every 1 minute.
Withdrawal fees:	The fee method used is the estimatesmartfee (3 block estimate) feature from the core client so it will vary depending upon network congestion.  I get none of the fees, you'll see that in the block explorers.
House edges:	0.01% on player seeded games,  4.75% on house seeded games.

It's a fully working site that accepts Bitcoin and Vertcoin deposits and withdrawals but it still has room for improvement (smart contracts).  Ideally I'd like the ability to remove the need for any kind of withdraw/deposits at all and have everything evaluate and payout via a smart contract.  I did this preliminary version mostly as an experiment and proof of concept.  Is anyone aware of a site that has done anything even remotely similar?  If so, does it use smart contracts?  I'd be super interested in a smart contract platform that can evaluate it's own blockchain such as returning the values of past blochhashes with the ability to evaluate if statements based on them.

If anyone is interested in learning more,  you should start by reading the FAQs section here: https://hashwars.games/faqs

NOTE: This is an experimental site that I am toying with that is fully functional.  This is NOT meant to be a casino site that's going to grow to an insane size like Stake or something.  It's more or less just a trial run for something I may develop in the next year or two that would be smart contract based but using the same blockhash logic if I find there is interest for such a monster.  However that currently isnt possible with any smart contract languages that I'm aware of yet.  If you know of one that can pull it's own past blockhashes and do evaluations on them,  please do mention it as well as the API to do such a thing,  dont just say "XYZ can do that".  I want to see proof  So consider this a proof of concept site of something that may come about in the future.  Worst case scenerio, I make a few bucks just for the side project.

Credits:  Yes the site design itself is shamelessly swiped from a popular online retail game (I dont really like the company anyway lol).  Like I said I'm not artsy at all lol. The trailer is rather amusing and it is used by permission of a youtuber, the trailer links back to their youtube account as they requested.

PS:  Yes,  I realize I have an obsession with LoTR and it's painfully obvious in the site design, terminology I use through out the site,  as well as the trailer I selected to use lol.  But who the heck doesnt like LoTR!    Besides,  it gives this simple game a little extra spice and isnt so bland.

After posting this Long read ANN Thread, you OP missing in action now? what's the score? what happened to your advertising here? do you really wish to earn players here or just trying to have another Victim from your nonsense  business?

because if you really wanted to make this business in progress then you must keep acting professional .

You have to work hard with the site if you want to see gamblers. There is nothing in the chat so switch it off until you`ll see some gamblers ready to talk.

OP has been not around for more than a month now and I am not sure if they are going to come back again.

I didn`t see it. I just visited the site and wrote that i saw. So, mostly it means that the OP decided to drop this site. May be he has not enough skill to improve it or he spent all his money for site design(it strange if it costs some money but it is possible), hosting and some other expenses - we don`t know but it doesn`t matter, we can forget this casino i think.

Just heard about this site and decided to check it out and it feels like a kid designed this site since it doesn't seem professional at all. Looks more like a indie game site to be honest.

This is why I am not surprised that he isn't active in this thread and that the site itself isn't receiving high traffic. Overall, I agree with your opinion about forgetting this site.

Hopefully, he can improve his site better than before if he wants to create a good gambling site and continue to promote it on this forum. But after I visited the site, it seems the site is still online well but after seeing Active Games on the site, I doubt when was the last time people played there. But yes, I agree with the others that @OP needs to fix many things on his site before starting again.

The owner seems not in a hurry to build this site. Because from his site itself, he said that he built many websites already.
And upon checking in whois, it is up for sale according to this below snapshot (check the upper right hand corner) -



So maybe, the OP already put up this site for sale?
Buying a new domain is easy and cheap these days. So no wonder, he may put this site to sale already and move on to the next.
