Stop thinking nickel and dimes and think millions......

The reason I suggest challengejackpot is because anybody can log on to watch that site without an account and they don't knock you off every 10 minutes or so if you are not having a bet. It would suit our purpose.
They have a live wheel with croupier and a few autowheels. I would prefer the live wheel with croupier. I think they go live every night here in the u.k between 5-12pm. I will need to double check that.

p.s. just checked, it's 6pm - 12am every night. The perfect vehicle for anyone wanting to conduct some tests over a period of time using real life conditions.

I actually agree with you Mike, there will be not many who claim all sorts who will offer to proof anything under real life conditions. (I am not referring to Gizmo, I actually think Gizmo has something to offer. I am referring to the crackpots like Wendel and a few others)

I have a far better way to do this. Let's do it from the chat room right here at this forum. I'll use nolinks.dublinbet.com live wheel to give out spins. It will be a real world test. It should be done when the wheel is busy so as to give everyone a fair chance to get the bets down in time.

I like this website - it's cool. The link is nolinks://nolinks.challengejackpot.com/live_roulette and you click "Play for Fun".

I live in St. Louis where I'm 6 hrs behind Zulu so it would be Noon - 6 PM each afternoon which is fine for me; don't know about others. I am self-employed and work out of my home so this is great.

I say use this.

I can add a live chat,IM, module to the chat room, same as here.

John Gold · January 30, 2011, 05:48:07 PM

The minute between spins at challengejackpot is perfect. It means that I am not going to make any mistakes. 20-25 seconds at dublinbet is not enough time to calculate the bet and type it out in the chatroom.

p.s. I will be here tomorrow then at 6pm my time ready to rock and roll.

Anybody else want to join in, feel free. Should get in about 100 spins in a few hours. I will be aiming to win but it's not a competition, let's have some fun!

Who is Zulu? Is he a moderator? I've not seen him post anything

John Gold · January 30, 2011, 06:13:06 PM

''Who is Zulu?''

Does he use fuzzy wuzzy logic?

Nathan Detroit · January 30, 2011, 07:23:24 PM

ZULU time.

nolinks://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/info/zulu.htm

You would not believe this I once used Zulu time in a chat room and some cat called me a racist.

People who actually use "Zulu" time or UCT or GMT, depending on when you were alive, generally refer to it as "Z" time.

For example... "We'll meet you at the drop zone at "twenty three hundred Z".

2300Z is currently 6pm local time for me.

If you use it a lot, it becomes second nature to realize what time it is, especially if you do a lot of global travel, which I did in my working years.

John, since part of this is in real time a better approach is a Webinar - I've put on a lot of them.

I don't know where you live, however.

I can display the website with the wheel in real time and you can talk if that's any better. When finished you have video and audio captured and it can be played back later for other folks.

Setting up the Webinar takes a few minutes of my time and each attendee simply needs an internet connection and a phone - the Webinar can handle up to 150 people and their microphones are muted unless they want to talk.

It's totally free but if any folks live overseas they need a skype account to keep the costs down; Both Skype and the Webinar software should work fine at the same time.

Something to consider.......

In Australia "cat" is a term used for homosexual males.

So you're a racist and a homophobic?

That's not correct at all. Z can sound like B or C or D or E, etc through a scrambled radio. The only proper way to communicate is using the Phonetic Alphabet. Unless its a civ organization with no proper radio skills they will never use independent letters.

Nathan Detroit · January 30, 2011, 09:48:30 PM

Bombus,

" cat" is old time wise guy ( gambler) speak like some of the Damon Runyon characters . E.g. Howie the horse would say this cat Leggs di Cocco hasn`t seen that much cash since got change for a dime to go to the bathroom.

From now on we shall not use ZULU and Cats in the same sentence.

John Gold · January 30, 2011, 09:49:48 PM

Maui, I have a skype account and live in the UK. I am happy to go along with whatever arrangements suit you best. As long as I have roughly 45 seconds to relay my bets. I was just having a look at the webinar website, it sounds pretty cool for doing presentations.

col1879 · January 30, 2011, 09:52:43 PM

I liked the movie Zulu with Michael Caine. Who would have thought a movie would have influenced the naming of a Time Zone!

gizmotron · January 31, 2011, 12:15:22 AM

MauiSunset , I admire your enthusiasm regarding this current period of web programmers. It's good to watch you at work.

Regarding Zulu time I have to point out an obvious discrepancy with the PC oriented enthusiasts. The acknowledgment that Zulu time and Greenwich Mean Time is the same time that is. It's a deliberate acknowledgment that the other half of the world counts too. Funny how they did that way back in the bad years of bigotry.
