Anyone else having issues when sending payments with sendmany?

I sent this transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx-index/13069740/d865f6929497516968ccb1bee9f8df1d5e47254f23c3dabdce23ed0fc9722279?show_adv=true
Which contains 5 payments of 0.2.

The corresponding transaction on BTCDice is this: http://btcdice.com/details.html?q=11435 which is showing as I only paid 0.2 BTC total.

Am I going insane or is it bugged?

EDIT: The same here: https://blockchain.info/tx-index/13071789/61f162635b21bd6b3275f85447f48dd314460e44dc7d297e62fde63fd60493b4?show_adv=true

3 payments of 0.2BTC in 1 transaction but again only a single payment shown on BTCDice: http://btcdice.com/details.html?q=11457

I looked at transactions and see the problem. You sent multiple payment to the same bet address in the same transaction which main client does not support, and I do not support due to potential double-spend attack. The server only supports main client functionality. I will send back your whole bets as good faith gesture and in the future you must send single bet per address in each sendmany.

EDIT:
Return payments

Ah I'm sorry about that, I wasn't aware. Thanks for refunding them.

You pay back really fast! I placed 10 bets and had already got back 8 payments before I could finish placing the 10th!

I think I'm going to bet here from now on.  

[Spenzert]

Cool, another "Satoshi Dice", going to bet here from now

Edit: Won a bet, but nothing back

Edit 2: Got the payment now!
Just a 10 minute delay

Hmm - my bet for PI bitcoins hasn't paid out yet...

http://btcdice.com/details.html?q=10060

too much pi in the system?

That is funny. 
I am tracking down a bug that is missing a few bets.  Sorry about that.

Your payment has been paid.

Good Luck!

seems I have bad luck getting my bets paid out - I have another one unpaid now... http://btcdice.com/details.html?q=15934 - do you have to manually poke these when they go wrong?

Cheers,

Will

Sometimes it is a bit slow for me. Payments sometimes 40 to 50 minutes later.

You are also risking legal problems.  Where I live (Massachusetts, United States) this is illegal.  The creator of SatoshiDice actually sold his site to someone else to avoid this risk.

Does evoorhees not own SD anymore?

I think evoorhees is the "someone else" in the above sentence, not "the creator".  i.e. he bought it, not sold it.

I didn't know that... I that erik was the creator (with fireduck being the technical), I think he is in the US too.

Good to know.

I'm not sure either.  But I remember a thread where the creator of a dice site posted "I'm having to sell my site because it's too successful".  I think he was worried about the legal implications of running a successful but unlicensed gambling site, and I think that site is what became SatoshiDice.  I'll try to dig up the old thread and will put the URL here if I'm successful.

Edit: I can't find the thread.

[forexmasterja]

Is the site down ? bets not get posted or returned.

[geebus]

I just placed a bet and got a return in just a few seconds. So, I guess it's fixed now?

Yah, depends on the state. 

This would be classified as a 'commercial casino', 20 states allow those.  You may need a license of some sort.

Also then have to go to the online gambling laws, UIGEA 'prohibits gambling businesses from knowingly accepting payments in connection with the participation of another person in a bet or wager that involves the use of the Internet and that is unlawful under any federal or state law.'

'While some states have specific laws prohibiting online gambling, many do not. Additionally, in order for an online gaming company to start, a license from the state is required. No states currently give out online gambling licenses.'

anyway, this will probably change soon, esp. with pokerstars paying out for the fraud full tilt site

I have transactions that just aren't going through, and if I search my address those transactions just don't show up.  But the Bitcoin definitely sent.

Are two out of the 5 turns I've taken so far.  I fear continuing  

Edit:
I was just impatient but it does seem to take awhile sometimes, actually it seems like it happens every other roll.

I've tried with the system based on math:

The system is simple. You bet 1, if you lose, you bet 2, if you lose you bet 4, etc. If this dice game would be based on 100% math, you will earn. I'm not sure, but it looks like interference in math rules. I understand if it's protection, but it should be noticed on main site. Just beware. :-)

This is called the martingale system and you need to be careful when betting small amounts on the dice game or you can actually end up in the hole because of TX fees.

Also your bolded statement is false... you may have some good runs, but you will run into the max bet sooner or later and be unable to recover.

Due to recent hosting provider outages affecting the host I have decided to take the game down until better reliable hosting can be setup. I expect only a day or two of downtime max.

[ErebusBat]

Where was it hosted?

[unclemantis]

Is it broken today? I placed a bet a few hours ago and no response.

[willphase]

works for me

[BTCDice]

New provider is working with back bets have been processed and everything stable for past 48 hours.

Place your bets!
