Short answer: not if they're good.


When you bet a small amount, there is a delay before you get the result back.  During that delay, the bet buttons are inactive to prevent you from trying to bet again.

It's possible, using a bot, to send the 'bet' message to the server as often as you want, even when you already have a bet pending.

A couple of days ago, somebody was taking advantage of this fact and was attempting to overwhelm the server by sending thousands of these bet requests.  I added code to block the IP of anyone spamming the server with bets like that.  It shouldn't affect regular users or well-behaved bots.

Unfortunately it turns out that one bot in particular (Gray's greasemonkey bot, I think) by default acts just like the attacker, and spams the server with bets without waiting for the previous bet to finish, and so users of that bot are now being banned.

I think it may be possible to tell the bot to pause between bets for a short time, which should solve the issue.  Better would be if the bot waited for one bet to finish before sending the next one.
