wasn't a big deal...

It is indeed not something that will make the user to get rich overnight however the rounding issues are giving player an edge over 30 % and that is indeed a big deal .Also that considering your site has an investment feature than it means investor is getting -EV which serves as a bad reputation for your site.

Your action of being hostile towards someone who give you a heads up also disgraced dooglus' calculation about this issue also is a bad publicity for your site and now people will think twice about investing on your site. In other words you have dug your own grave and it will be just a matter of time before more people read this thread

P.S : are you going to give Substrata the bounty for finding this flaw of your site?

Hostile? We offered him bounty, but he was to greedy to take it. We are small site and don't have huge profit, so we can't afford to reward everyone that says he found a bug, and doesn't want to tell us about it if we don't pay....

I believe he is not that "greedy" merely doing some negotiation to increase the bug bounty , which is everyone will do considering 32 % house edge is a major flaw in your site and thats cause you to lose in long term if anyone finds out about this. Whats more is that you are losing your investor as well in this case because it is -Ev for them


For this 32% issue or whatever it is impossible to reproduce, so you are wrong at some point, not sure where.

Im not sure that do you even understand whats +EV means? Basically you dont need to run a simulation or whatsoever because you just need a simple math for it. If you dont trust this math, I wonder how do you able to code this site on the first hand.
Also some advice for you, if someone like dooglus pointed that there is a flaw in your code then there is a flaw with it since he never claim anything without proper math or test

P.S : you havent answered my question, will you give substrata his bounty? He had posted his address if you are not aware of it yet
