This was our intention, but we changed our minds on this. I'll ask my collegue to change the OP.

Like Yesterday,even this contest was won by an address which doesn't have any past transaction history.Shady.
https://blockchain.info/address/1JhZWqKYQ2cxWhb4WJMKipA5LmxszpUrfP

The solver of the puzzle apparently knows what he/she is doing, since address re-use is bad.

well absolutely scam,your solving the puzzle for free.
or maybe op is the one who is earning for every correct puzzle you made.haha

It is true that our puzzles are not "provably fair". We made the puzzles, so we could give away the answers to certain persons, this is unavoidable in this game type.

What really adds on to it is,I believe the contest is advertised on this forum and unfortunately nobody from the forum is solving the puzzle but somebody else.@OP is it like the puzzle is advertised elsewhere from this forum that we're unaware of ?

Absolutely! We post it on Reddit, facebook, twitter, IRC, our website and so on.


is this what kind of celebration ? not PROVABLY FAİR ? but its opened for users ? lol.

so then why are we working for it ?

This is not gambling and we are not making money out of this. This is just entertainment with a small prize as bonus. We just think it is nicer way than just giving a bitcoin to a random user. You don't have to play Smiley

but I don't understand why is not PROVABLY FAİR ??
We've created bitcoin transactions that are only spendable with the correct answer. So in a way it is provably fair in that we can not change the outcome of a puzzle. We can however not prove that it isn't ourselves that claim the prize.

The next puzzle on Monday is going to be focussed on Bitcoin related words again Smiley
