I'd fill out the form if it didn't require signing into a Google Account. Otherwise DM me an email address to follow up. Would be good to know who's asking for this information as well.

Heya Crypto, good to see you back. I hope everything is alright on your end!

Splitting the chat into two channels seems like a good idea.

There isn't really much I can do at this point.. I just added a warning to my scripts on Github that the site is no longer to be trusted. RIP in pieces diggit.

I share that sentiment. Which is a shame, really.

Okay, so, I spent this morning with the Chathelper and built in a little extra that, at least to the people using it, fights the spam rather effectively.

To the ones who don't know about it yet, since, well, I actually never officially announced it and let others spread the word, here's the thing.

The latest addition to the Chathelpers functionality is filtering chat messages out by patterns. You can already mute people, but until now there was nothing you could do against bots and spammers in general who keep changing accounts.

Now you can, and it works out of the box. Although, a word of warning: the current default setting is to hide ALL posts with links in them. I know this is not optimal, but I decided to see what you have to say, since blocking buttloads of domains and link shorteners by default might be just as controversial, but even more confusing.

If you're interested, see the Filters section in the Readme, it has examples on how to work with the filters and how to make more conservative ones than the "throw out all links" filter that's default.

Alas, it's possible to have conversations again, so pay the site a visit if you feel like it. Feedback is very welcome, as always!

I have well over 100BTC wagered on that site, built bots for it and talked to the owner on several occasions. The site is severely neglected, that's what it is.

Who guarantees you that if someone else buys the tickets? How would you go about guaranteeing it? The OP could send out pictures of the purchased ticket showing relevant/identifying inormation including a note that user XYZ has all rights to eventual winnings sans the agreed upon percentage. In combination with some escrow that holds his personal information you would have something to work with if things got hot. Then again, you will have to win the lotto first, so that's really a problem to worry about if it ever happens.. until then, precautions should be more than enough, while easy.

Oh shit, really? :/ That sucks. He owes me 20k..

I'd like to see the site rise again.. it would motivate me to continue with the bot as well. But everything just came to a halt when the russians took over..

What language/framework is the backend built with?

Not only that, but nobody is using the chat because it's so broken. If the chat was useable again a community could form around the site again.. which surely wouldn't hurt.

I don't want to buy it, but I would be interested in the ability to improve and maybe manage it to some degree, whatever that means. Currently that's no fun because I can't do jack shit against the spammers, except for maybe blindly muting whole ranges of IDs. But the chat is so dead it doesn't really matter anyway, even with 100 "people" online.

I pulled out slightly bigger sums a couple times over the last days and didn't have any problems. Did you check if the TX was even sent out?

While we're at it... Crypto, is there any chance we could get a select box or something to raise the network fee for withdrawals? With the Blockchain being rather full and somewhat slow lately, I'd love to make sure the TX ends up in the next block.

Raising the fee from 100 bits to 200 bits seems to have been enough on a different TX just now. Sent it out 45 minutes later than the diggit withdrawal and it's got it's first confirmation while the withdrawal is still waiting to be included in a block.

More problems like this seem to be popping up:





The game details suggest that no mines were dug. This is a different thing to what I reported a couple days ago.. I'll add details once I'm home.

As per discussion in the chat, this seems to persist after a refresh, which is different to what I observed a couple times now.

Checking on the game itself is self explanatory:



I personally still think it's a display bug, but it's good it has been brought up and gets some attention. Whatever the cause is, I just hope it gets fixed along with the connectivity issues. :/

There is an actual display bug in the "My Games" list. Refresh the site and check again. I reported this a few days ago, but haven't gotten any feedback yet. No surprise this is causing confusion.

Where did you get that from? I am allowed to globally mute people. That probably qualifies as mod.

No. I was arguing exactly against that. People use the chat. Including new users who haven't played yet. Why lock them out because some people are idiots? We have people that wagered multiple BTC and still spam their stupid reflinks.

An entry barrier would be more damaging than it would help, I think.

I just think that if someone got muted system messages should be blocked as well. While impractical, using tiny tips or the name changing it's still possible to spam the chat.

Limiting the chat to players who used the site already defeats the purpose of the chat, as people quite often ask questions before getting started.
