Title: MMCs first gambling service now available! NO HOUSE EDGE NEXT 40 BETS due to bug
Post by: isaacgoldbourne on January 02, 2014, 02:50:24 pm
Currently offline, setting up a site and making provably fair.
In order to apologize for a bug, meaning 48 hours of bets hadn't been processed I have extended the 0% house edge deal.
You can now enjoy all of your gambling, with just a 2% house edge! Simply send your coins to one of the addresses below and wait for the result after one confirmation.

The code is all my own and has just gone through basic testing so there could be teething issues, but these will all be ironed out.
The minimum bet is 0.01 MMC. You can send money from multiple addresses, it will just select the first address listed, and use that to send the payout to.

Please do not send 60 0.01 MMC bets, they don't work all that well and some of them may go missing. Please wait until your previous bet has 1 confirmation. The system reads the raw TX so you will not be able to win someone elses money, just screw yourself over.

I feel that a gambling service is key to all cryptocurrencies, and was something we were very much lacking. As a result of this we now have another service accepting MMC, and I will certainly be creating more of these. If you feel I have done the currency a service, and you look forward to future projects just send 1 satoshi (0.00000001 MMC) to MVTEcno2tbsJWj7AQEyEjgk72j94hbPHFm

Please add any feature requests or requests for more services, as I will gladly help with any of them.

For anyone wondering, this code is all original and highly modular (3 lines of code means this can work on any cryptocurrency based on bitcoin)

If you would like to invest PM me.

LOW ODDS ADDRESSES RE-ADDED, NOW WORKING.

Next 30 bets (as of 20:45 GMT) have 0% house edge

Happy gambling.

Certain addresses had a 100% win rate due to an error with a missing 0. No bets made to said addresses. Now fixed.

Its quite simple really, you send an amount of MMC to one of those addresses, and dependent on a number being generated you will either get more or less. The numbers you see are the chance of winning, and what you get if you do win.
Title: Re: MMCs first gambling service now available!
Post by: belltown on January 02, 2014, 04:42:46 pm
I have some feedback:

1. It would be great if a player that lost would be notified. Maybe sent him 10 Satoshis back?

2. Put this information on some web page. You gambling service needs at least a home page. This way sites like www.MemoryCoin.info can link to your service.

But first you need to do what I've sent you in PM:)

Currently a simple httpget from random.org which gets a random number between 0 and 1000000, the percentage is calculated as a number and if it is equal to or below that number you win. If not I win.

random.org is extremely trendy.

You may want to figure out a different way to get random #'s.

Next week when I create the site it will become provably fair, and take into account many things to create the number. I will also add support for other currencies, what would you like to see. Are there any protoshares dice sites?

Nice service!
I suggest you change the title of the post to signify that there's no house edge for the next 30 bets.
e.g. "MMCs first gambling service *NO HOUSE EDGE FOR THE NEXT X BETS*" to attract more people to this thread.

Not sure the service is still working. I noticed that chainbrowser doesn't show recent transactions correctly.

You are not relying on chainbrowser to implement this service, are you?
Nope, chainbrowser only shows inputs not outputs, plus the outputs come from a separate wallet.
Still running

And no, doesn't touch chainbrowser at all, all my own nodes.

Post by: isaacgoldbourne on January 14, 2014, 07:15:01 pm
Yeah, I gave it the benefit of the doubt, but I don't think this is working as intended anymore.

I sent 13 payments to MDice6TRuT18YCHMdAZ9NHoxydYgAx7F4D (48% win rate!? 2x payout) none of which won. The balance is just sitting in the address, and none of them are coming back.

http://www.chainbrowser.com/memorycoin/address/MDice6TRuT18YCHMdAZ9NHoxydYgAx7F4D/
http://agran.net/mmc_getbalance.php?addr=MDice6TRuT18YCHMdAZ9NHoxydYgAx7F4D

I think what would make people more confident in using this is a website with a history of all the bets and payouts, so that we can all see that the random number and the service do indeed work as intended.

Good luck. Obviously it is not a good idea to bet against the house, it is just for fun after all, however I would not make any more bets until we see a site.
Just taken a look and you are right, there was an error on half of the 48% address (that won't make much sense unless you have seen my code).

I will fully refund you for all of those bets now, I have fixed the code.

Currently working on a website which will list bets. Don't worry about that!

Scratch that, I'm just going to reprocess the bets.
What address would you like me to tip you on? Quite a lot of bets weren't processed because of that!

You should probably implement some sort of test that runs constantly to make sure service work as intended.
Not a bad idea, I'll implement something like that in the future

Please contact me as soon as you can.

Refunded, thanks.
