So it looks like the Grand Opening happened and the same month the site closed.
RIP CryptoBall

Should we play "TAPS" or "Another one bites the dust"?

*Just when i was going to start making predictions too  Cry

Hi Shattered,
Hope you're well and looking forward to a prosperous 2015.

Whilst we appreciate the sentiment of choosing funeral music, Crypto Ball is about as far away from RIP as possible.  A closer analogy would be to liken us to a new born - whilst we are likely to trip and stumble as we learn to walk, we have a lifetime ahead of us.

Crypto Ball is the beginning of a series of projects that seek to explore collective intel and crowd wisdom in crypto markets.  We're very well funded and as such have the luxury of moving at a more organic pace.

Bitcoinexp has indeed been in touch with the team and is correct in saying December was a beta launch of sorts (more alpha/beta in reality).  We've taken the feedback we received and are now close to launching a major update to the site.  Over the next 2-3 months we'll continue to finesse the site, hoping to be at full steam come June.

Hope this clears things up... oh, and for what's it's worth, we much prefer "TAPS" - much more integrity wouldn't you say?  Wink

[As i write this, TAPS plays in the background]

Skimmed thru your new site (out of boredom) and something doesnt seem right:
You said the site is currently "live" so one can assume that the numbers in the green boxes on the calender represent current predictions by real people.

So, someone(or several real people) was actually dumb enough to make 19 predictions for Wed Feb 4th already??? The day before there is only 1 prediction and Sunday Feb 1st only has 1 prediction also?Huh

If someone was that insightful why would they not make predictions for every day leading up to Wed or limit their predictions to within 48hrs from now?
There is no logical reason for someone or a few people, to make random guesses on the price of BTC a week from now just to split a .19 BTC prize pool of which(if im reading your pay table correctly) will only yield 50% of the entire advertised pool anyway??

So 19 people/predictions are fighting over an actual total .095 pot?
What does first place get, if no one else makes any more predictions for that date & time, .05 BTC?

Im honestly not trying to troll, this is pretty interesting....but i think something just doesnt add up here.

Hi again Shattered, great to see you’re interested, albeit a little skeptical.  Whilst we simply don’t know what’s going through the minds of our customers as they make predictions, we can at least use our greater experience of the project to draw a few theories…

Firstly, the Prediction total for 4th Feb 00:00 BTC/USD is actually 12 not 19 - so not as many people as you thought have been quite so brave/foolish (you decide).

Secondly, we’ve preloaded some Pots with more than others - for now there’s either 0.1, 0.15 or 0.2 BTC.  Whilst the amounts aren’t out of this world, the 0.2 is still double 0.1 and we’d suspect this is significant enough to sway people toward Predicting on those Sessions, even if they are slightly further in the future.

Thirdly, Predictions are now bought in packs of 5, 10 or 25, at a price of 0.04, 0.05 and 0.09, meaning they come in at a cost of 0.008, 0.005 and 0.0036, respectively.  Given that the preloaded Pot for 4th Feb 00:00 BTC/USD was 0.15 BTC and the current total is 0.1932 BTC, we can deduce that the BTC from paid Predictions is 0.0432 BTC.  If we then divide that by the total number of Predictions (12), we get 0.0036 BTC.

This means that the people who predicted on this Session bought a 25 pack of Preds.  And given there are no Preds beyond this date, we can only conclude that these people used the their other Preds on previous days, including in all likelihood, the 3 Sessions on 31st (which total 52 Preds) and the two 0.2 BTC Pot Sessions on 2nd (which total 56 Preds).

Furthermore, the Predictors box shows us there are only 3 Predictors for 4th Feb 00:00 BTC/USD, giving each an average of 4 Preds, meaning they must have used the vast majority of their Preds on an earlier date.  Maybe these were their last few Preds and they thought they’d be a little more adventurous with them, especially given there are no longer ties - first move gets the prize.

Of course we could have just told you all this without the detective work, but that wouldn’t be fair on those Predictors.  Instead, we opted to use only information available to our customers.  If you get into the game there’s all sorts you can discover and many a tactic you can adopt.

As we said earlier, we don’t actually know what are customers are thinking, but it seems they have more of a strategy than you initially posited.

ENOUGH WITH ALL THIS TALK  Wink  WHY DON’T WE GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE FISRT HAND WHICH STRATEGY IS BEST.

If you’d like, we’ll give you 5 FREE PREDICTIONS for EVERY WEEKDAY NEXT WEEK!  If you think you have a better strategy than the current users, then here’s you chance to sweep up the winnings for a whole week.

THAT’S 25 FREE PREDICTIONS!  If you get 1st every Session at even the current Pot totals, that’s 0.89527579 BTC and it won’t have cost you a satoshi.

If you’re interested, just send us a private message and we’ll give you instructions from there…

On a side note, 25 Predictions only cost 0.09 BTC, so even if you had to buy them, the winnings are pretty good going.  And the bigger the Pot the better they get Smiley

All the Best

Given Shattered's generosity, we've lifted the restriction that their Preds need to be placed over 5 days, instead allowing them to placed anywhere in Feb - this way they can try for some of those larger preloaded Pots coming up later in the month, e.g Thu 12th which has two 0.3 BTC preloaded Pots and Friday 20th which has two 0.25 BTC preloaded Pots.

Good luck to you Shattered, we truly do wish you all the very Best  Smiley

Check out THURSDAY 12th FEBRUARY for our most popular Sessions of 2015.  There's some decent BTC to be won.

Shattered is playing for the homeless in their area - maybe you have a good cause you'd like to play for... let us know Smiley

Also, you can now see Proof of Predictions from our Calendar. Click the link from the Preview once the Session is closed, but before Results are in.

AND, check back soon for an EXCLUSIVE bitcointalk PROMO you won't want to miss.

I just wanted to point out that my initial opinion about CryptoBall could not have been more wrong.
Quite frankly, im embarrassed when reading my first few posts in this thread.

I feel compelled to point out, the customer service they provide is like no other i have ever experienced.

Im excited to be an active participant in the price prediction contests they offer, and look forward to helping promote a site like the one they run.

Why Thank You Shattered, very kind words indeed.  We do take customer service very seriously, in part because we believe it's the cornerstone of any good business, but also because Crypto is still very much the wild west of money.  We want to demonstrate to our customers that we know their best interests are key to our success.  We look to action this principal in all that we do and will continue to do so however big Crypto Ball gets.


And on that note, spurred by Shattered's good nature, we're making an extra special extension to our PROMO ...


WE'RE GIVING AWAY 500 PREDICTIONS - ABSOLUTELY FREE - NO PURCHASE REQUIRED!!!

The FREE Preds are available in packs of 10
So that's 50 PACKS OF 10 PREDS - FOR FREE!
Each pack is worth 0.06 BTC and it won't cost you a Satoshi



To claim your 10 FREE PREDS, simply post the Username you'd like to use on Crypto Ball here on our thread and we'll send you a PM with details of how to get your 10x Pred Code.  Remember, there's no purchase necessary for this special batch of Free Preds and there's only 50 to GIVE AWAY, so get posting your Usernames before they're all gone.

What's more, we'll add the value of your Free Preds to the Pot as though you paid for them.
More BTCBTCBTC to be won for all!!




HAPPY PREDICTING

Bitcoinexp.
Don't understand why no-one has snatched the codes yet. They are basically giving away free money. All it takes is some basic price chart analysis or strategies and a look at their site... So far, i think i've gotten close to 1 bitcoin from the predictions, most of the time spending next to nothing to predict. Really guys! You're missing out on this.
