Woot! I won a PS4 

[cypher21]

when does the next auctions are starting?

[g-uid]

I have a question about how the sniper bids work. I set up some earlier and it seems after every second bid that was not mine I would automatically bid 1 second after someone else bids and the time would increase to 1:20 instead of :50 like usual. For example jelli3108 bids at 9:55:32 the 30 seconds later wancman bids at 9:56:03 then I bid 1 second later at 9:56:04. I have seen this happen with other users but I have also watched long periods with bids only every 30 seconds. What causes this, is this how it should work?

It's a bug exhibited only when a threshold of sniper bidders is exceeded. Trying to fix it now, hence the reason no auction is running at the moment.

Ah, thanks for the explanation.

We're being extorted. DDOS has taken us down.

Please be patient as we try to get over this hump.

Well, that sucks. I want to win a PS4


I don't quite get the benefit of launching a DDOS attack, it really accomplishes nothing.

By taking us down they are denying us a source of revenue (service is inaccessible to our users, auctions end earlier than anticipated, folks can't bid etc). The longer they DDOS us the more money we lose. If we pay them then they claim that they will leave us alone, ergo extortion.

It's a criminal act, nothing more to it.

I would definitely not pay them, who's to say they will stop or just say they want more?

Also, is this a decently sized attack that could be mediated with a cloudflare account?

Unfortunately it's of an order that the guys we have spoken to quoted around $10,000 (a month!) to be able to safely bury what they're sending our way.

I got my PS4 today, it was even gift wrapped. I have been playing GTA V most of the day since it got here.

I took a couple pics and I will post them later. Thanks Bitding!

Edit: Talking with g-uid that auction was cancelled early and the one I won was voided. Due to an exploit in the website I disclosed. Accounts are being refunded their coins.

Bitspill you are one of a kind. I don't think there are many people who have the integrity to do what you did.

Thanks a plenty for your honesty.

Sorry it took so long I've been spending way too much time on a game I have already beat twice lol

Nice win!

... Maybe I shouldn't have told g-uid how I was able to cheat ...

However while I could have gotten a free PS4 we need to look out for each other as a community and not burn each other out just to make a quick buck, otherwise people will always be fearful of bitcoin and further it's image as being for scams and illegal operations.
