An animated wheel is stupid, who needs it anyway?

While we're at it, we don't really need to see the leaderboard while playing either. It's easy enough to open a new browser page if you ever want to inspect the leaderboard.

If you remove the leaderboard on the game page you can increase the size of the text and playing fields, which would greatly improve the gaming experience for all, not just those of us with challenged sight and dexterity.

How could something that would look more polished be stupid?

I already said it wasnt nessecary. You just lack of taste.

I agree about the leaderboard.

[Taotie]

I agree celescliff, it would add polish.

How come I can now bet up to 2000 units on the 012 & 023 streets but when it wins I get nothing and it takes my wager?

Because assholes don't deserve payment.

Although i'll let the programmer know. Let me know any errors and they'll be fixed. The programmer is new to the source code and bound to make errors

instead calling people names look at the shitty game

lags
spits out few numbers at same time
new matt has not been positioned corrrrrect<as you lay chips on matt they are not fit in right on number>
coordinates on mattt are wrong
space between splits is not good as you hoover over it is so diffic to place split bet
and there are too many fake players with only 1000 spins so cleaning is needed
...ok boss

I think we already established the lag is likely due to your shitty internet connection. I'm not getting lag and I'm on the other side of the world as the server.

I know about table alignment and inactive users etc which will be fixed after other issues.

Double bet is up and running, and betting limits are enforced. Please anyone using MPR let me know any problems you find. It helps a lot if everyone keeps an eye out for potential problems. Remember I dont benefit from the game - it was made at request for members. So helping game development is helping the community.

So what's next? Suggestions?

I've been testing the lag issue. As far as I can see it's when there are more than 1 players. This probably has to do with the server sync between multiple players. I'll keep looking into it.

Anyway everyone please let me know what you would done next.

Also it looks like the lag is not exactly lag. The countdown to next spin sometimes appears to stop on your pc, but its still going on the server. For example it might stop at 5s left to spin on your pc, and 5s later the spin is done. Then the countdown starts again. At least thats the only lag i'm finding.

If there is something else, I need precise details, or even better a recording so I can show the programmer. He needs something very specific and correct to work with.

also leaderboard is hidden from main game page now. The layout is spaced so for typical PCs you can zoom in to make the page bigger if you want, with all elements spaced in a usable way.

For me its 25secs and catches up with a quick countdown to catch up.
Also ready button stays checked sometimes, even times not checked and not laid all units and # comes, and usually its a win but alas a loss as units not all laid.

Yes ok, but when you see it tick to 25s, is the 25 remaining accurate even if the timer freezes on your pc? In other words, if you just see the timer tick tom 25s, then freeze at 25, then do a quick or erratic countdown to 5, is the elapsed time accurate?

The ready button gets jammed? Ive never seen this one before. What browser and pc are you using?

when freeze at 25 it then quickly catches up to 22 or 21 sec's, presumably back on time.

The ready button stays clicked every time a number repeats immediately. It doesn't shorten the countdown though, but you must click it off then reclick it if you want to call the next spin.

Sometimes the game fires off a number well short of the 30 seconds, quite a bit actually. I've notice it definitely happens sometimes when another player logs off, possibly sometimes when a new player logs on too. I'll pat attention to it and let you know.

Ok keep a close eye on it. I'll have a look myself and record them for the programmer.
