Less than 32000 = 48.8281% chance to win. Sorry, maybe I'm wrong, but BTCDice.com smells for me.

When secret is available for your bet, you can calculate yourself and see it is acting normal.

Sorry you lose, but system is perfectly fair and working normal.

Read this to understand more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_distribution

Simply, each bet has 48.8281% chance of win, but next bet is not changed based on outcome of prior bet, or future bet. So you lose each one because each one has 51.1719% chance of lose and because you lose one doesn't mean you win next. Your luck is bad.

The odds of losing all 9 bets is 1 in 416.  It's unlikely, but not impossible.

Code:

>>> 1 / 0.511719**9
415.6388335394661

BTCDice looks crashed at the moment. I made a bet, but without response and no log on recent bets.

I had delay while making reboot on back end for maintenance. All bets are processed now.

Can you explain how this formula works? I didn't get the same result using the formula.

Divide 1 (individual roll) by the probability of win per roll (51.1719% or 0.511719, based on address of bet) and power of number of total rolls equal the likely chance of probability that all rolls will result in a singular answer, inverse to probability of win (ie: all will lose).

And it's again the same as before - made a bet, and isn't on recent bets logs. Again no BTC back, even 0.00000001 as confirmation. Don't place bets, upon admin solve it.

Just place a test (for example 0.001) bet and you'll see.

System was down while I make some speed improvements on back end. It now back on and all bet have processed.

I confirm. All previous bets have been processed and back to wallet. :-)

EDIT: But system/transactions are much slower now. What's more - site is again crashed and doesn't work. EDIT: It works now.

[Spenzert]

Placed a bet and doesn't show in "Recent Bets" and no BTC back

Edit: Back after 2 hours

You can bet now from My Wallet service on BlockChain.Info to BTC Dice!

Lots of thanks to BlockChain.Info for support!

[BTCDice]

Website was offline due from provider having outage, but bets were still process during outage.
Website is now online.

[BTCDice]

Added long polling API support to query for recent bet:

Code:

Long Polling

You can place a GET request to http://btcdice.com/poll?id=[string] to request transaction or 
address details for a recently placed bet, and the server will respond with a JSON-formatted 
result as soon as the information is available.

Whole, or partial search strings can be used, and a maximum of 24 results will be returned.

Ex: http://btcdice.com/poll?id=1G9

Thanks for adding the long polling! And I just noticed the fadeout stuff on the site. It looks good! *thumbs up*
