First, let me give credit where it's due. The idea of the BetSniper game came to me as a modification of the milestone giveaways that v1rtu0so hosts. I always thought it was a cool idea and it got everyone in chat riled up. Then, I also wanted to just try out JDCAPI (https://github.com/seuntie900/jdcapi) by Seuntjie. With his api, I was able to build this simple game within an hour. I cannot say enough about how great his work is. So, thank you both!

Now to answer a couple questions that everyone keeps asking me.

1. No, I have nothing to gain. I want nothing. I am GIVING you clams. You are welcome.
2. No, I don't want to tip you so you have money to play the game. Silly asses. However, I do want to clam the right to "Sniper Bullets" because I got a laugh when I came up with it.
3. If you see anyone thanking Deb for her contribution to the game, know that it's an inside joke. Come to the chat room and ask, someone will tell you the funny story.
4. Yes, you can donate to the BetSniper by using the /tip 32 Amount command. Please type /tip in chat if you need more information.
5. No, I am not for hire to make you a bot. Blurt out a cool idea and I might do it.

Have fun. See you at Just-Dice.com

Maybe you should consider capping payouts at 50% of the bots bankroll. It'll last longer that way. Actually I would recommend a even lower cap.

In theory capping it sounds like a good idea, until you realize how many really small bets are being placed that are going to win. 50% sounds reasonable, but making it a percentage will make it last forever. Maybe make it 50% or X clams, whichever is greater, or the Bot balance . X could be any amount. IE 5 clams. I'm rambling so...

If X is 2 clams and the balance is 10 clams Max payout would be 5 clams (50% rule)
if the balance is 3 clams, Max payout would be 2 clams ( X clam min rule)
and if the balance is 1.9 clams Max payout would be 1.9 clams (balance rule).
