3) Sending a bet in at closing time for a bet of which THE OUTCOME WAS KNOWN in order to scrape winnings off legit bettors.  <-- this is true scamming the REASON THE POLICY WAS IMPLEMENTED!

how is that scamming? if the sites accepts bets after the outcome is known, that's a logistical error, and not the fault of the user. it is completely plausible that somebody could mistakenly send bitcoins after a bet is closed. and bitbet's answer to this is "you fucked up, your loss, haha" ?

the only reason bitbet has a the audacity to enforce such a bullshit rule is because they clearly make a lot of money this way.

What if I bet after a bet is closed?
You're screwed. BitBet will keep your bet, report it as revenue (under the gracious donations to shareholders heading in the monthly reports) and distribute it to shareholders.

"you're screwed." really? judging from the rhetoric alone, bitbet doesn't give a single shit about their customers.

completely disingenuous. i reiterate, everyone over at bitbet.us can go get fucked.
