what do you mean ?

Maybe I'll invest the ether you sent me in your game

Thanks IFa

Good luck with your project 

Yes it's my address, it's a new account (trying Jaxx on Ios  ).

Hey IFa,

Ok good to know it was only a typo.
Thanks for the generosity to thanks me

Hey Ifa,

I think the chances are more fair now.
It's still only 1/26 for *10 gain but it's working as advertised.

BUT !!!!
I think there is a big problem in your code.
when a player wins you have this line to send :
      if (value_ > 0) { if (msg.sender.send(value_)) { throw; } }

this means that the transaction fails if you send the win.
did you forget ==false ?
Or is this intended

I'm puzzled ><

can't post in it because the OP locked the post, so it's my way to warn you

GJob for the update.
I will read the code when I have time and let you know what I think.

SCAM WITH VIRUS

no it's false. You assume you can divide both sides of the modulo and preserve the chances, it does not work like that.

the bignumber*1million should be a multiple of 118'181'817 for your contract to trigger the transaction.
that's 1 chance over 118'181'817

it's not the same as bigNumber divisable by 118 which is a chance over 118.

Btw you should know that there are no float (real) numbers in solidity so your 118.18 makes no sense.

so suppose you have

bigNumber % 118 =0

you don't have big Number * 1 million % 118181817

I have edited my message,
I think it is not correct in fact !

THIS IS A SCAM

VIRUS IF YOU DOWNLOAD

Thanks for the clarification IFA,

I think it's clearer now, but I'm not sure it's solved.

So If I understand you, you say that

big Number * 1 million % 26 * 1 million

is the same as

big Number % 26 ?

I'm not sure the probabilities are preserved.
In this case yes because we can factor 1million in each side.

But take for instance a bet of 1.1 ether, difficulty of 118181817.

so now it would be
big Number * 1 million % 118181817

your proof does not work for this case, you can't divide anymore without altering the result.

The solidity code is all I trust, it never lies.
And in the code, it is not divided by 1million.

Ok good to know,

Thanks a lot for the feedback Ifa

No I did not make a mistake.

Check in mist :
enter 5e18 in bet
you get 26000000

And it's not a rate.
It's the value of diffculty in the equation.

bigNumber * difficultyMultipler % difficulty_ == 0


So the hash number * 1000 (diff multipler) has to be a multiple of 260000000 for you to win.
1 chance over 260 000.

I know solidity. I did not make a mistake.

This game is a scam.

Hey there.

I think there is a problem with loterry D.
I like the concept but I check my chance of winning and it's ridicilously low !!!!

If I place a 5 ETH bet, I can win *10 but only have a chance of winning of 1/26000000 !!!!!
ONE OVER 26 MILLIONS ??
that's crazy, no one in his right mind will play this game !!

We win if :
bigNumber * difficultyMultipler % difficulty_ == 0

but with the max bet of 5 ETH, difficulty is equal to 26 000 000.
So 1 chance / 26000000 that the remainder of the division will be 0.
Insanely low for a *10 gain !!!

Scam ?  

A Ponzi scheme (also a Ponzi game or a Ponzi)[1] is a fraudulent investment operation where the operator, an individual or organization, pays returns to its investors from new capital paid to the operators by new investors, rather than from profit earned through legitimate sources. Operators of Ponzi schemes usually entice new investors by offering higher returns than other investments, in the form of short-term returns that are either abnormally high or unusually consistent.

nice updates !
Well done leo

and I won, nice !

Rematch ?
