I know dooglus had been known to look ahead from time to time but stopped when he accidentally gave up information to a better.

I don't think I ever accidentally leaked any information. One time I told a player that I had looked ahead while he was playing at very low chance of winning, so see when he was due to hit. And he freaked out on me. He told me that just by knowing his future I was changing the future, via quantum effects. So I promised I wouldn't do it any more.

Not looking makes it much easier to be in the chat. Sometimes people on long losing streaks try "fishing" for information from me. "I'm bound to hit soon, right doog?" - if I knew the answer to that question it would be difficult to know how to answer. It becomes a game of poker - do I bluff, double-bluff? And so I don't know - then I can't accidentally leak information.

On the other hand, if PD had changed the server seed of hufflepuff/robinhood they wouldn't have lost a few hundred bitcoins. Wink

I don't think so. HufflePuff had a way of discovering his server seed. If PD had changed it, he would have just made a new account and continued cheating on that one.

yeah i should have doog from just dice stop in and he can let you know really how big of a deal it was when he had to reset the server seed and what he did to make sure the EVERYONE new that they werent using the same seed...

I found the thread accidentally all by myself.

Us dice site operators all get a little 'spooked' sometimes, and I think it's good to err on the side of caution. It's not a good idea to accuse people of cheating though, as BTC seems to be doing in that chat log. If the player isn't cheating, there's a good chance you'll offend him enough that he stops playing and so never loses his winnings back to you. And if he is, he'll just deny it anyway.

I was once concerned that server seeds may have leaked, and so even though I thought it unlikely I couldn't take that chance, and decided to reset all the server seeds. I made the site act as if all the players had clicked the 'randomize' button, resetting the server seed, revealing the old one, resetting the nonce to 0, etc. And I made the chat tell everyone about the reset each time they logged in, and every 10 minutes thereafter. For a month or two. Until people begged me to remove the notice.

Yeah, it was similar to our situation except you did it the right way, we did it the completely wrong way. Also that's what I thought was going to happen, I told our dev to change the server and client seed for Uni and I assumed by him doing this it would reveal the old server seed so he'd still be able to verify his old bets if needed. Either way, I went to sleep and woke up with Cryptasm telling me that our dev only changed the server seed and didn't change the client seed because he thought it was pointless. So I assumed everything was fine, I have no coding experience and lack a lot of knowledge on technical stuff so I didn't question our dev and thought nothing more of it until this whole situation arose.

This was definitely a lesson learnt though and won't happen again.

i know how it all looks to NON-TECHNICAL people and plus there are very rare experienced and skilled developers in crypto world.
maybe time to change one for you people.?

what exactly are you trying to say..?
