Hi nice idea but your "next round in" timer is not working properly.
It counts down the all of a sudden it jerks and starts counting back up again.
if I refresh the page the counter is on a totally different number.
I had you open on my iPad and its counter was totally different to my computer.
The counter chance factor rises and rises to over 90 % and then goes back to 50%
with nothing happening.
Please can you explain what is going on & yes the wagers are all on 0.05 or over.
Thank you
Hi dirty dog. Thanks for the feedback!
The round timer counts the time since the last block, and gives you the time that you can expect a new block. It's independent of when a round is actually triggered or not -- it resets every time a new block is found. As you know, a round is triggered when a new block is found, as long as all buckets have 0.05 BTC or more.
It can happen that the web site says all buckets have 0.05 BTC or more, but a round isn't triggered on the next block. This happens only when one of the transactions doesn't get confirmed in the new block. This transaction will usually get confirmed in the next block, so sometimes there is a one round delay. There isn't much that can be done about this.
There was a bug I found earlier today with rounds not triggering that was caused by a floating point error. (Basically, the server thought there were only 0.04999999 BTC, not 0.05 BTC, so it didn't trigger.) But I fixed that, so there shouldn't be any more problems with rounds getting triggered.
