The game is too risky and the trust required is too high.
I agree the game itself is risky, but I'm not bothered about the trust. You've invested more in reviews than the total waged amount on your site, and people deposit much larger amounts to their account in brand new online casinos, which adds up to much larger amounts than your site gets for only the running games.
So it looks like it's time to end this project.
That's too bad. I thought all you'd need was more players. Will you keep it
on Github? I'm copying the link here just in case someone wants to fork it later. For the record: would that be allowed?
How will you know if you won't continue? I think it's too early yet to quit this project. Projects like this are kinda rare to see so you shouldn't end this yet. I check the site and I am not bothered about its colour or design. I understand why it looked like that. It is because this was just like a mini-game and there is nothing much the player can do after they sent their bids.
I agree with all this. But I also know I'm one of the few people who doesn't get impressed by a flashy design.
