The exploit was with the "Refer-a-friend" promo.

They must have countered it by now. Some Croatia guys were doing it. You needed to sign-up under their link and bet as told via chat. If lucky, then split the earnings. If not lucky, losses were minimal.

I've been out of those private rings for a long time. I'm not anymore "in the loop", so can't really tell about their current status. I've always turned down the proposals so nobody approaches me with proposals of such kind these days. Better for me as I do want to make things the right way :)

Back in the day people would abuse dublinbet for their low-wagering-requirement bonuses.


There were even guides passed in the underground (skype, msn) about them.


If I recall right, they were about coordinating efforts betting opposites on several accounts to maximize chances of at least one clearing the bonuses while minimizing real-money losses. I was contacted about them but never really liked exploiting the good fellows at dublin. They put a good operation and don't deserve the treatment. Perhaps william hill...  :-X


I wonder what happened to those bonus abusers? Perhaps they just morphed to affiliate exploiters...  who knows?


Where there's a will, there's a way. Where there's a crack there's a cork  :nod:  Im' certain there's people out there making this "cashback extra cushion" work for them.

My humble pocket counting device with no movable parts:

You just need to move your brain cells a little to subtract  :D

Example: the distance between 19 and 2 should be calculated like 7 - 4 = 3 pockets.

Number 2 = 7
Number 19 = 3

Another example: the distance between 21 and 3 should be calculated 43 - 36 = 7 pockets.

Number 21 = 43
Number 3 = 36

Straight-up / Manual Wheel Pocket Count

You can use this printable card to count pockets manually.

No movable parts. Just a flat image.

Usage is very simple. Just subtract the lowest from the highest number using the inner rows.

See examples below.

Sure matey,
Some methods just can't be extrapolated :no:  But we must check all venues eh  :nod:

One thing I learned from the Tool is the numbers don't matter, only the underlying events.

You can extrapolate the clockwise and counter-clockwise part using the street-wheel.

Bally, this is appreciated.

I like the fact you are:

a) Considering a delimited timeline as the base for your selection.

b) Keeping the games short. Won or not you end the second cycle.

It would be interesting to see this approach tried on the streets or any other location with a shorter cycle-span :nod:

Cheers!

Thanks Ophis,
Truth be told I'm first focusing in getting functionality done right. Then refinements :nod:

I'm currently working on getting chips placement with a floating unit.

Dozen/Column / Edgardo's translation
February 22, 2013, 02:30:20 PM
Suppose we play the 1st and 2nd dozen dozen. These are the balls that come out (spins):


1) 16 1
2) 24 1
3) 0 -2
4) 0 -2
5) 30 -2
6) 35 -2
7) 24 1


"I chose wrong, it seems ... two zeros just  spun... hahaha)", the next time I like to make like system sellers who exemplify with actuals  right for the system to work perfectly.


We start recovery with a positive, according to the balls played and Ecart.


Next bet (NB) = 1.5 (spins played - spins lost)


NB = 1.5 (7-4) = 1.5 * 3 = 4.5 we round it to 5. This is our next bet


8)  16 5


NB = 1.5 (8-4) = 1.5 * 4 = 6 This is our next bet


9) 30 -12


NB = 1.5 (9-5) = 1.5 * 4 = 6 This is our next bet


10) 12 6


NB = 1.5 (10 - 5) = 1.5 * 5 = 7.5 -> 8


11) 34 -16


NB = 1.5 (11 - 6) = 1.5 * 5 = 7.5 -> 8


12) 9 8


NB = 1.5 (12 - 5) = 1.5 * 7 = 10.5 -> 11


13) 9 11


We gain  9 chips with 6 wins and 7 losses.


Kind regards, Edgardo.

Anyway, do not worry much because of the set of actuals that was elected, as I said above it is pretty bad. You know that the odds are ....  ::) ... I forgot.


Well if anyone reads this, please refresh me...

I see the feasibility of technical solutions to distributing and enhancing moderation.

If we can run an efficient ship where every user basically gets a mini-forum with his thread, we move one step ahead to not requiring a vigilant group to enforce good behavior.

It would be the best win from any board ever  :applause:

General Discussion / Self-moderation dialogues
February 22, 2013, 07:32:20 AM
First, allow me to express self-moderation is a fascinating model to me. This has nothing to do with the quality of moderation here; yet towards my views a self-regulated community goes a long way.
In my book the most successful community is the one which can moderate itself.

If a lot of people flag a post it's likely because it is worthy of flagging.

We're already heading towards a distributed moderation model by lending posters control over their threads. Yet I do believe there are still several features worth implementing:

- The ability for a user to restrict who can post on his topics. A member-maintained exclusion list.

- The ability for a member to not only remove offending posts from his topics, but also to issue a warn to the offender.

Another curious feature I want to code is the "Martingale self-muting". Allow me to explain.

Members would help maintain a list of bad words. From the classic 4-letter words towards every bad-meaning euphemism which comes into view.

The forum software would keep an increasing count risen with each inappropriate posting attempt. When a post containing a bad word is submitted, the forum software automatically mutes the user, doubling the number of days on each hit:

1 day, 2 days, 4 days, 8 days...

Those who insist in using crude language keep muting themselves for longer and longer periods on each try.

The offending post itself doesn't even see the light and the member's muting is directly due to himself because of his own actions.

The beauty is the fact members who do not recur to bad language aren't affected at all, they can enjoy in full; yet the potty-mouths exclude themselves from the discussion, increasing their exclusion time on each attempt as per their choice, with immediate automated enforcing.

The goal of the model is to make our place heavenly for those posters who want to elaborate at length, care to keep a respectful language and are good in general; while at the same time giving hell to those who want to turn the forum into a boiler... with minimal manpower required  :thumbsup:
