That is where the chance comes in! You play the person who plays concurrently before or after. Sometimes it only takes 2 points, sometime it takes 85 points. All depends on the luck of the draw. Good luck playing!
But is saying "waiting" and no money are in. Now I can't play because I have no usable money to play, they are all pending... Also some of "waiting" just disappeared WTF! You should keep all the history to check. I think this happened because you only show the last 5 in history...
Also now is boring... I don't even know if I lost or won..
That snake game is our own little flare! You can't simply click in the direction but need to use the quadrant system. We will update our instructions to make that clearer.
I've seen Bitcoin go from its beginnings through the thick and the thin. And they say that when there is blood in the water is when it's the best to get involved if you believe in it! We 100% do. We are operating our platform under skilled gaming which is legal in 37 states and the same protocol that other skilled gaming companies follow. This is allowed by Paypal and Coinbase. If you have any other questions, email me at sagar@koalah.co and thanks for the support!
Hey, our intention is not to reveal your BTC activity with your real identiy. The BTC is simply used to deposit and withdraw money as an alternative to the man, aka PayPal. We're huge supporters of BTC and the Ethereum project and tying in BTC was our way of opening it up to a community that does not look fondly upon fiat currency. The 90 day waiting period is only for accounts that are flagged by our security protocol. Rarely will we hold money for the full 90 days. Thank you for sharing this bug with us, we will be working through this and adding in a standard login process in the next two days. If you have any questions, please email me at sagar@koalah.co
Do you guys realize Bitcoin transactions are not reversible? Why not update your "security protocol" and take advantage of this new technology? Btw Ethereum is a scam. Why would you support that instead of say sidechains or Counterparty, and take advantage of the already existing code, infrastructure, adoption, and network effect in general?
Can you clarify what you mean by scam?
(note: I did not purchase any ether at the presale, and I do not own any of any cryptocurrency. I have no financial stake in any cryptocurrency succeeding. I am interested by the ideas in Ethereum though.)
Are you saying that it is a scam because you consider anything which has a presale to be a scam? (Or because of part of how the presale was set up, and what guarantees were or were not made at the time? Or because of the magnitude of the presale?)
Or do you not believe that they will create what the have stated that they intend to create?(and believe that they have intentionally deceived others in this regard.)
Or do you believe that what they create will be insufficiently secure due to network effects, and that that alone makes it a scam?
Or do you mean because of the proof of stake thing, and the nothing at stake problem? (In that case, note that they said that they are starting with proof of work, and I believe they also said that whether they actually do switch to proof of stake depends on what the users decide? I found vitalik's post about "weak subjectivity" to be fairly convincing. There seems to be a good faith belief that it does not contribute significantly to centralization, and as such, even if it is wrong, I don't think I would consider it to be a scam.)
Or some other reason which I have not considered or listed, of course.
Thanks for your concerns. We will actively check out all cryptos! It would be ideal to leverage the technology that has been built through bitcoin and something we will look towards.
Glad to hear that. Some additional info then: Counterparty published an Ethereum version built on top of Counterparty. Ethereum responded by building Counterparty on top of Ethereum. The obvious difference is that Counterparty uses Bitcoin's blockchain and security, while Ethereum has nothing. To makes things worse they use PoS which we know can't be made both secure and decentralized at the same time. That's why all PoS coins are centralized through checkpoints or whack-a-mole style security patching.
Hey Rick, Thanks for checking us out, and we added in the public login to drive a social gaming environment. We will rarely hold money for as long as three months, it is in case we have an account be of concern based on our security protocol. We will be publishing this security protocol in a white paper as well as adding in standard login. Skilled gaming is also allowed by PayPal and Coinbase, while gambling is not. Feel free to email me at sagar@koalah.co if you have any questions.
We have used facebook and g+ accounts to sign up to drive a social gaming environment! I understand your concerns and we will be adding a normal sign up process in these next two days. We are considered games of skill opposed to gambling. Players are wagering on their own skill. To give a comparison: take the NYC Marathon. A runner will pay money to run and if he wins he receives prize money. He is placing a bet on himself.
The application process (like the thiel fellowship) itself teaches you a ton about yourself and your business. Although we weren't accepted to either, I came out a more insightful person (let's go round 2!).
The app is intended to be a mobile web app that allows for real money (USD + Bitcoin) skilled gaming on the games we know and love. We are working on restricting access of the game to mobile devices only.
Both the Apple App Store, and Google Play store have strict terms of service against skilled games.
We think that it's only fair if you're competing against people who play from touch screen mobile devices versus arrow keys. It would be as if one person had a little goal, and one person had a bigger goal on a soccer field. We are just trying to keep things fair.
@TheSwan, I agree that that would be cheating, and we will try to minimize that. The difference between mobile and desktop gaming is very big, and we're trying to create a fair gaming environment. Having a mouse and keyboard versus an xbox controller to play a game makes a big difference. I personally prefer the keyboard.
The same works for touch screen tapping, and using keys or clicks for our mobile game.
