Can I just get back my original investment?
Nope. Unless your name is mateo, in which case anything is possible.

Now the site is in 350BTC profit? What's going on....Anyone have any information on this at all?

Short version is the site never went down. It has been operating the whole time, though with much less activity. It was slowly re-acquiring investors, and at one point when the BR was growing (don't know the exact number, maybe around 1000) "Mateo" returned and went on a huge losing streak. Those are the facts of the situation.
There is continued speculation as to whether Mateo is a legit user or an insider. Some people are saying Mateo is a Manl account who lost all the money back to lure investors back so Manl can steal money. I personally don't find this compelling, since Manl could have just stolen 7500 BTC the first time.
Either way, you need to form your own conclusion, but continue to be weary because this site was found to be cheating players once already by skipping winning nonces, whether or not Mateo is a legit user.

What I don't understand is how is BR and Invested not the same number? What would cause that to be different?

What I don't understand is how is BR and Invested not the same number? What would cause that to be different? You know what, I just did some experimenting on the site with the dust I still have there. It appears the "Invested" number doesn't change for divested amounts, but always changes when new amounts are invested. I divested with no change to the "Invested" number, then reinvested the same amount and the "Invested" number changed by the exact amount I invested. I wonder if divestments of a certain size don't subtract from the total "Invested" for some reason. Tangential question: for the purpose of attributing profits properly to folks who are invested, is the site properly computing your percentage of the BR or is it assigning you profits based on your percentage of the amount "Invested." If it is the latter, then investors are getting screwed on profit as it is being watered down.Edit: It is using the correct BR number. I still don't understand the "Invested" number.

Are you sure about that? The way I think it works is as follows: When you invest, 'investment' goes up. When you divest, 'investment' goes down. When players win and lose, 'investment' doesn't change (although 'BANKROLL' does). So your personal 'investment' figure represents how much you invested, not how much you have left of your investment right now. Then, at the end of each week they divest your investment, charge commission on any profits, and reinvest it. The divest makes 'investment' go down. The reinvest makes it go back up, but not as much as it went down (if commission was charged). Some examples (each paragraph refers to a separate user account): * You invest 10 BTC. Someone wins, reducing your investment by 10%. Your investment figure still shows 10 BTC. You fully divest and withdraw. Your investment figure shows 1 BTC even though your account is now empty. (You invested 10 BTC and only divested 9 BTC, so in a sense your net amount invested is 1 BTC, which is what it shows). You leave the site and never return. That lost 1 BTC forever contributes to the 'invested' figure at the top of the screen, even though it is no longer in the bankroll. * You invest 10 BTC. Someone loses, increasing your investment by 10%. Your investment figure still shows 10 BTC. You fully divest and withdraw. Your investment figure 'should' go to -1 BTC, since you've divested more than you invested. That's the site's signal to charge you commission. They charge you 10% of the 1 BTC profit you made, and set your 'invested' figure to 0 BTC. * You invest 10 BTC, earn 1 BTC the first week, lose 2 BTC the 2nd week, earn 3 BTC the 3rd week. After the first week the Sunday commission run auto-divests your 11 BTC, taking your net invested amount to -1 BTC, so they charge 10% of that, and set 'invested' to 0, then reinvest the 10.9 BTC you have left. At the end of the 2nd week you have 10.9 - 2 = 8.9 BTC, and your 'invested' stat is 10.9, so when they auto-divest you then, your 'invested' figure drops to 10.9-8.9 = 2 BTC. You don't pay commission since that's not negative, then your 8.9 BTC is reinvested, taking your 'invested' stat back to 10.9 BTC. At the end of the 3rd week you have 8.9+3=11.9 invested, your 'invested' stat is 10.9, so the auto-divest takes it to 10.9-11.9=-1, you pay 10% of 1 BTC in commission, then your remaining 11.8 is reinvested, taking your 'invested' stat to 10.8 BTC. Notice that you've earned 1+3 = 4 BTC and lost 2, for a net profit of 2 BTC, and paid a total of 0.2 BTC in commission, as you would expect. Maybe DiceBitcoin can confirm that's how it works, because I could be wrong, but it makes sense to me. The 'invested' figure is a neat way of tracking how much commission you are due to pay. It prevents you from paying twice on the same amount (in the 3rd example above you only pay 0.2 BTC in the 3rd week despite earning 3 BTC that week).

Let me give you the answer you're waiting for, because I can read ManLoL's mind. "I'm sorry I tried to steal 650 BTC. I just wanted to leave my mom's basement (and buy some hookers)".

God no, I'm such a moron. I just retried my experiment and it worked the way you would expect. Which means it probably did the first time as well, but I didn't notice it change the first time I divested. Durr.

So back to your original observation, what would cause Invested to go up 500 BTC while bankroll drops 150 BTC and site profit only goes up 3 BTC?

The bankroll went down because people divested. The invested went up 650 btc relative to the bankroll because the site charged commission on mateo's 650 btc loss. Edit: I was brief in the above explanation because I was typing on a touch screen. If it's too short let me know and I'll try harder.

Maybe we should ask for the chat box back and discuss how awesome the site is?

HE REMOVED MY ACCOUNT
Since today, my account suddenly doesn't exist anymore. I used to log into it each day to check wether he has replied to my support ticket concerning the cheating player and my unfairly lost investment. For some reason my account is now removed from his database. Can anyone else confirm their account has been removed? There was still a little bit of money left on my account; sadly i don't remember how much exactly...
Is he trying to clean up the evidence of his scam?? He still owes me 0.251 BTC, and now he even removed my account, with the remaining money lost.
