when you play stake around people, the public, or friends and family, while you are on your cell phone or laptop... 
im curious.... What is it you tell them when they ask " what are you doing "  or if they ask "what game is that"
or                
sometimes i feel like people think im crazy or high or not right lol... cause i imagine they see me kinda staring at my phone just making  a same motion "rolling manually" on dice 
lol i swear i think people around my work place (outside, when im. having a cig and playing) think im nuts! lololol
                                
but when family or friends ask me... i just say oh its just a game, and i kind of brush it off... i try not to  disclose that it in fact gambling with real money, well digital money...
sometimes or some friends and family do know, but they i feel they dont like it when i do it around them, and rightfully so i guess
                
so what do you guys say, respond, or react, do you even play in public or around other people etc?

I just explain to them that I am currently burning away any potential for future financial success in a cartoonish manner while gleefully entertaining my dopamine receptors

I don't play on my phone so I haven't encountered that situation yet. And I will never gamble on stake when I'm outside or when family and friends are over. That's just taking it too far lol.

I always play on mobile. And really all my family member and friends ask me what I'm doing on my phone. What is that. I tell them it's a game. Online game lol. And we can talk with people around the world in this game too. They always ask me over and over what I'm doing actually. I get confused sometimes what I should say. If I tell it's gambling they will take it badly. Truly gambling is worst thing. We know it but still do it

haha I have long been accustomed to look at the phone, then to chat ,then ICQ, but with people of course are trying to remove. And if asked, I will say that just from idleness, to tell that it will not

When my friends ask me or my family to ask me, I just say it's a game of chance, and free (if I say I lose money, they will be very interested in it).

Same situation with you. I’m a social influencer. I’m always online with phone like 15 hours per day . When i finished my work to do or break time, i play stake with phone and people react me with same way . I’m just don’t care about that and I’m doing whatever I want to do.

Well as many other players I don’t play outside (maybe sometimes I check the forum but I don’t play), If I have free time and am outside of my house I maybe play but not in Public.

I play most of the time on my Mobile I keep the account logged in always in my browser.

About the others no one knows that I gamble money in Stake here and play I kept it hidden and only some friends know that already.

quando você joga em torno de pessoas, o público, ou amigos e familiares, enquanto você está no seu celular ou laptop ... 
estou curioso ... O que é que você diz quando perguntam "o que você está fazendo" ou se eles perguntam "que jogo é esse"
ou                
às vezes eu sinto que as pessoas pensam que sou louca ou alta ou não está certa lol ... porque eu imagino que eles me vêem meio que olhando para o meu telefone fazendo o mesmo movimento "rolando manualmente" em dados 
lol i Juro que eu acho que as pessoas ao redor do meu local de trabalho (do lado de fora, quando eu estou com um cigarro e jogando) pensam que sou louco! lololol,
                                
mas quando a família ou amigos me perguntam ... eu só digo oh é apenas um jogo, e eu meio que ignorar isso ... eu tento não divulgar que, de fato, apostar com dinheiro real, dinheiro bem digital ...
às vezes ou alguns amigos e familiares sabem, mas eu sinto que eles não gostam quando eu faço isso em torno deles, e por direito, então eu acho
                
que o que vocês dizem, respondem, ou reagem, vocês até tocam em público ou perto de outros? pessoas etc?

 

I use my laptop more often, when I'm asked what I'm doing, I change my subject quickly, and I say it's just a game. I feel that some people around me still have a hard time understanding what an online game is that deals with money.

That is quite true, as people would tend to associate online gambling/gaming with negativity often on first impressions.

I just said that it was just a game for fun, I'm not telling them that it's a gambling site, for sure they will stop me from playing it..

the problem with the saying its just a game is sometimes whoever is asking will come sit next to you or whatnot cause they are curious what is the point of the game lol.
and it becomes kinda hard for some of the games like dice to explain kekek.

Thank you guys for being so responsive and honest. it makes me feel good making topics that stir up conversations im interested in.

The functions on phone are not great and I best avoid them because the site is all over the place, don't get me wrong, I'm just being truthful - I think that there best bet is to work on the phone rather then the web browser in my honest opinion, what do you guys/gals think? Do you think they need to prioritise the phone website more then the official web browser site on laptop/pc?

Our redesign is considered a "Mobile first" design. We've optimised everything to work best on mobile and then ensured desktop from there. We hope to see a large increase in mobile use after the release.

It depends on who's asking lol. I will most likely tell them that I'm at a really cool site and I'm playing plinko.  As soon as i mention plinko then the questions start coming in or even the "oh thats awesome" comments .  Theres been a time or two when I've just said none of your business lol.
