Open for testing: Bitcoin RPS (Rock paper scissors challenge)

[Cyberdyne]

Please try this brand new site, uploaded just a few moments ago.



http://bitcoinrps.com

There are still a few things to fix up, but as it stands now the core functionality is available.

~~ Create your own RPS games and have your friends challenge you.
~~ Put money on the line and bet on the outcome.
~~ Only 1% house fee (3% is extracted from tied games which occur approximately 1/3 of the time, and no fee is charged if a game is won).
~~ Minimum bet 0.001 btc
~~ Minimum withdrawal 0.01 btc
~~ All games are hashed with SHA 256 so you can check the results.

To do:
~~ Make a help/about page
~~ Make the pages refresh more intelligently via AJAX (you currently need to refresh some parts manually)
~~ Make graphic icons for the rock, paper, scissors links instead of text.

Also in the case of no human challenges available, a bot will periodically create some. At the moment, it is just creating games worth 0.01 but it will have more variety once the site matures.

Please have fun, all feedback is very welcome.

Hey.. not bad.. I won .05 from your robot

But now I can't seem to withdraw. it keeps saying :  Invalid address or amount. Minimum withdrawal is 0.01 BTC.   but all the input data looks good.

Thanks.

We found one small bug, which is now fixed:
if (user_balance > amount) should have been if (user_balance >= amount)

This bug would have stopped you from withdrawing your entire balance, but still should have let you withdraw 99% of it (Other players have made withdrawals).

Please try your withdrawal again, and could you please also confirm that you were attempting the entire balance when you got the error?

Thanks for playing!

Just tried it and it worked..  Thanks.

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback and congrats on winning.

By the way, I see that you still have some small change in your account.

Although it's not enough to challenge the RPS Bot, you can still create your own game (or several of them), since the minimum bet amount is 0.001 BTC, and wait for another human player to take the challenge.

To create a bet, just go to the My Games tab, enter your bet amount and choose Rock, Paper or Scissors.

Then other players who visit the site will be able to see your rounds on the main page, and play against you directly!

I just did what you suggested..   


You might want to modify the main screen to not show games created by the person themself. 

Winning against yourself seems to lack some excitement

I'm not sure if you've tried to play one of your own games, but it won't let you.

We decided to display your own games so that you can be sure they were added properly, but may make them hidden instead.

Thanks.

really cool site! They also opened up RPS at https://www.gambit.com recently too but they don't offer any bot play there.

I think all my games need to be rewritten with node.js and websockets, but it's been difficult to find skilled workers (who actually have available time).
