Yesterday player 30202 won 10% of the jackpot pool (1.6 BTC out of a 16 BTC pool), with a 0.01 BTC bet that rolled lucky number 94.7777. This is the first time someone has won the jackpot with a bet of less than 0.1 BTC! Congratulations!

Site is back online now.

SITE ANNOUNCEMENT:

In just a few hours, LetsDice will undergo scheduled downtime while we update our system to reflect the new bankroll distribution. The downtime is expected to last for several hours. All user data is safe and balances and bet histories will still exist when the site returns.

Thanks,
Martin

House edge is still only 1.98%

Two days from now, a new bankroll distribution scheme will go into effect. Some notable changes:

• We are getting rid of the referral rewards scheme. No longer will players receive payments based on the wagered amount of those below them in the player tree. Instead, each day's top bettors will receive a portion (0.7%) of the total daily wagered amount.
• 0.3% of the daily wagered amount will be used to refill the jackpot.
• 0.294% of the total daily wagered amount will be distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends.
• 0.664% of the total daily wagered amount goes to refilling the bankroll

When we instituted these changes, we gave our shareholders the opportunity to sell back their shares to me at their IPO price of 0.01 BTC per share, in case they were not satisfied with the new bankroll distribution scheme. This means that we still have some number of shares which are available for purchase. If you would like to purchase shares, please email me at martin.gale888@gmail.com

As one of our shareholders pointed out to me, the new investment scheme causes LD shares to drive their value from the size of the site's bankroll, rather than from their dividend payouts. Because of this, we will soon be listing LetsDice shares on a few bitcoin stock exchanges. Please stay tuned for more information on that.

Thank you all,
Martin

Not hijacking, genuinely seems like a cool idea and I'm sorry I missed it while it was up. 

Awesome concept, I look forward to when you guys get back online so I can try it out.

Like a lot of other dice sites, we've been having some issues with being DDoS'd. We've set up Cloudflare, and it's alleviated the problem for the most part, but the attack is ongoing. As of the time of this writing, the site is up and running. I apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused!

I am going to put this thread on hiatus for a while. I have not purchased signature space before this, and apparently the way I structured it was not completely fair with basing it on activity rather than posts, and I guess my payments were a little low. I will re-structure my offer and then re-open.

I realized I accidentally sent you two payments of 0.03. My mistake, please keep the additional.

Hi, sorry for late payments all. Sending pay for previous 3 weeks now.

Decided to make it 55.5555 so that 77.7777 doesn't win two jackpots. Updated the OP to reflect this.

Hi Boelens,

John is looking into the matter. I will let you know when it's resolved.

The 500 BTC Super-Jackpot is now live.

See the post I made just above yours. It's planned.

On 2013-10-02, 00:10:00 UTC, LetsDice will go offline as we upgrade the site's backend. The downtime will last approx. 12 to 24 hours. Thank you for your understanding.

The site will be down for a couple hours for routine maintenance. The system and all deposits are safe. The site will be back up and running very soon!

Apologies for any inconvenience.

I appreciate what you are aiming to do with your site, but I have some serious reservations about what exactly constitutes an "honest evaluation", considering that your review of Betcoin is pretty much pure marketing copy that finds no flaws with them, despite the fact that at this point it's pretty well known that they are fudging numbers, cheating their players, and behind the DDoS attacks on many other casino sites.

Meanwhile you give my site a C- because of the actions of one of my investors, which has nothing to do with me or my site.

And, some excerpts from your media kit that you send out to the operators of various bitcoin gambling sites:


You go on to say that for "only" 12 BTC per year, we would get the following:


So, if I pony up and pay you 12 BTC, I get a glowing review and placed on the "official recommended list", but if I don't pay up I get an unfavorable rating? Has betcoin not gone rogue? They still have your A+ rating and are on your official recommended list.

I'm sorry, but your ratings cannot be trusted if you are willing to sell positive reviews and give poor reviews to those who don't pay you.

Combo breaker!

If you guys are actually reserving posts and not just messing with me, you could at least leave a pithy comment or something
