Blockchain is back up, so if you have not sent the refunds I would appreciate it if you did so. Thank you for being so helpful with this, an active admin is a good admin.
Refunded yours manually since the system never processed it.
Any word on my tx getting added or refunded? Blockchain is still down. Twitter.com/blockchain
We will refund all transactions for this round at the end of the round since blockchain was down for so long.
Hopefully this doesn't happen again. I'm looking into setting up bitcoind on a private server so this doesn't happen again.
Are there any good alternatives to using blockchain to track confirmations?
I heard there's a peer-to-peer version of Bitcoin where you don't have to rely on a central authority.
Doubt it will catch on though.
was looking for something simpler to set up like the online wallet of blockchainI guess you're saying I should run bitcoind myself and handle the transactions that way?
You will adjust for the time they were sent at, correct?
Edit: If blockchain doesnt come up by the end of the round, will you refund the coins?
Yeah, we will adjust for the time that you sent the coins in at.
Normally the updates are near instant from blockchain, but in this case can you check if the transaction time on blockexplorer is accurate?
If blockchain doesn't come back up we'll refund all the coins.
I recently sent 0.2295 BTC to your site, only for it to never show up. My assumption is that since blockchain.info is down, it did not communicate with your site. If you read this before the round ends, please either add my investment for the score it was worth when sent, or preferrably refund me the coins. Thank you very much.
Can you show me the transaction hash?
Edit: didn't know blockchain is down, i'll add the transactions after the site comes back up.

also, considering you have 0 risk, why not lower the fee (say 0.99%) to make it more competitive against sites like SD?
Yes, I think I will do that. I sort of just pulled 2% since I thought that's what people were using.
temporarily down due to issues with blockchain
I made a simple Bitcoin investing game with a friend: http://www.bitmajority.com
Basically, there are two teams, and people can send bitcoins to "invest" in either team and raise the team's score, with the game lasting 24 hours.
When the game ends, the team with the higher score wins and splits the total investment from both teams based, while the losing team gets nothing.
The winning investors get a share of the profit proportional to their score contributions.
A twist is that investing earlier gives you a higher score multiplier, a bigger share of the pot if you win, but is of course riskier.
The game is fully deterministic, and all transactions are recorded on the web site.
Fee is 2% for now. Transactions coming in after the game ends are returned minus 0.0005 fee.
Functionality for multiple overlapping games (4 24-hour games separated by 6 hours each) is done but I'll enable that if there is more interest.
If you guys have any suggestions or advice on how to improve the game, feel free to tell me.
Edit: blockchain.info is down, so I can't get any updates, will refund game if doesn't go back up soon
Edit2: all money for round has been refunded. 2 of the refunds were done manually.

If you're worried about delays, I'm not sure BitInstant is the best way to go.
I'm not sure if they fixed the issues from last week yet, but when I deposited an error showed up, and they had to manually push the transfer through.
I did get my coins in the end though.

Actually I been thinking about spotlighting my sack. Nothing like a big ass Teabag in the sky.
Since I'm sure there are no Gotham residents here, for a small fee I will take a pic of my wall showing a teabag of a flashlight

Re: Official Newbie BitInstant Support Thread (Active Customer Support)
Hello, I'm BRAND new to the BTC world.
I actually tried two transaction types today with BitInstant. The first was using the moneygram to BTC Address method. It worked great, and was very fast. The second transaction was using Dwolla to BTC Address. It ended with the "MTGox Connection Error". Seemed to have taken place around the same time as the previous posters here. Is this something that usually resolves itself, or does it have to be referred to BitInstant support for resolution?

Yes, it seems they have to manually process your order with Dwolla.
