Here is a pro tip. On most real world slots you can only double your bet twice or three times (25c, 50c, $1)
So, progressive betting doesn't really work, but here you can do it 4 times at least and I suppose more when out of beta.
This is nice way to minimize your loses while waiting for the big symbols.
Thank me later.

This is actually great idea! I'm surprised the only answer is by someone calling the OP jerk. Wow, talk about community spirit

so, any ideas why the icon doesn't work for me?

anyone about the double storing of the blockchain?

I've been playing a bit every day, so far all is good

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Armory
GenericName=Bitcoin Client
Comment=Full-featured Bitcoin wallet management application
Categories=Qt;Network;
Exec=python /usr/lib/armory/ArmoryQt.py %u
Icon=armoryicon
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/bitcoin




yes the other icons work (offline and testnet)

Yup, pretty cool. I feel I will be relaxing with it on a daily basis

But why it stores it twice?
using up to 40GB is kinda a lot

also is the .armory dir also supposed to be 18gb?

ok for everyone else that wants to run in under linux with custom data dirs and the shortcut doesn't work here is what you should paste in the terminal

python /usr/lib/armory/ArmoryQt.py  --satoshi-datadir=/storage/path/.bitcoin --datadir=/storage/path/.armory


now the question is how to make this into an working icon or starting script?

i right clicked Armory in that folder and got

is that what you meant?

I understand why .bitcoin is 17.6GB but why .armory is 18+ GB as well? Does it duplicate the blockchain?
Is that expected behaviour and what's the easiest way to move those folders to another partition and start armory with the new paths?

I read the troubleshooting, but it's a little confusing because i need to set the different paths for both dirs, right? and each of them used different syntax?

so if someone can give me an example would be great!

so when i start it from the terminal as advised i just get

python /usr/lib/armory/ArmoryQt.py
(WARNING) armoryengine.py:11334 - Overriding not-available message. This should happen 0-5 times
(WARNING) armoryengine.py:11334 - Overriding not-available message. This should happen 0-5 times
(WARNING) armoryengine.py:11334 - Overriding not-available message. This should happen 0-5 times


and it starts and works just fine.


still can't start it from the icon
and i have pretty standard ubuntu 13.10 install
any ideas?

Oddly enough it started when i tried from the terminal.

Here is what happens
I downloaded and installed "Version 0.90-beta for Ubuntu/Debian 12.04-64bit" on Ubuntu 13.10 64bit
Installed bitcoind and everything else it asked for using the button in the app
It starts just fine, creates a wallet and downloads the blockchain.
Once it did that i closed the app.
When I tried to start it later, nothing happens when clicking on the icon. Literally nothing.
The offline and testnet icons start it just fine.
I reverted to factory settings from the offline version. But starting the normal Amory icon after that does the same. Nothing.
Sometimes after restart Ubuntu says there has been system error though.
The ubuntu install is fresh and with minimal stuff installed, so it should be clean and not a problem with something else.

Is it just me?

ok i'll look into it , thank you for your help and time!

last chance for someone to say if there is one

i knew it, there is none

It has been in the protocol since 2010 as I can see but, yet no one really has implemented that into interface, is that right?
Blockchain seems to have had it for a while but then removed it
Multibit wallet is working on it but we don't know when it will be available
so we can only use it by command line with the original bitcoin client?

is there anyone else that i'm missing and has it?

and how come such significant feature is so under-used?

i got really excited because i read it's 95% done
so decided to get better idea, like exact date for example
just kidding, but if you have raw estimation that would make my day
