Re: [BITLOTTO] NEW: Customize payment address! May 2 was *386 BTC* Next draw June 1!
Can you rework how the prize amount is displayed on the site? Before the May draw closed the site had 490+ btc total prize amount. This amount was incorrect and should not have been displayed.
For those that don't recall, the discrepancy is from the 25+ btc that was returned.

The site currently displays the total btc received as the prize amount. It should display (total received) - (total sent) = (prize amount)
The site uses a php script to display the total. As soon, as the refund was given, the script was updated to reflect a more accurate total. (The amount was taken off like you suggested above) For some reason while updating the site, an older copy must have slipped in. For those that don't recall, the discrepancy is from the 25+ btc that was returned.

I will investigate and take extra care so it doesn't happen again. Luckily it was only off by 25 and for a short period. But, I do agree, it should be accurate. Thanks.
...are you aware how long it showed an extra 25 BTC?
N.Olmos: Did you happen to see the value showing on satoshidice at the same time?
Edit: it could have been an issue with the data I was caching or an error from blockexplorer....
Hopefully no one makes another error payment for years to come!
