The races are honestly kinda broken.

Look guys to be honest the current state of racing is just all in 1.01 on dice and hope for best.

To be honest i dont think thats extremely interesting and therefore i got an idea.

 

What would you say if instead of hunting wagger, you would have to get best profit? Top 100 users with  best profit can win.

 

Instead of waggering xxx bitcoin your mission will be to make as good profit as you can.

Since i am sure someone preffer the old style more, i think this can be just an extension. One day it will be wagger race, another day perhaps profit race.

 

What do you think? for me personally it seems like it could make a lot more sense.

It will probably be more fun to watch the cool bets instead of 1.01 or freaking baccarat farming lol

I think that may  be a good idea.  It's sure to make things more interesting.

Speaking of the races I think that there should be a rule against hidden mode.  We are not allowed for anything else so why the races.

It makes sense that we would want this, and I think this will be interesting too. Trying to hit a big multiplier and then sitting on your hands. So it gives a chance for the users with lesser balance to try and win a race - which I really like.

But if we look from Stakes point of view, how will the site reward them - 100 users like the normal races? I have a feeling the site will lose more than they will gain? Like I said most users will try to hit bigger multipliers and thats it i guess, which will not really help the site. But also on the other end for those who like to go higher and higher may try like a 2x the amount they are behind which could easily end up with them losing which is horrible for them since they'll lose the position and all what they had  Although that would be good for the site - I think it may be a bit harsh and I feel lesser users will wager and join this.

Hope they see this though, since its a decent suggestion and they'll take it into consideration or not.

The idea may not be bad, but still it will not change anything. The list of winners will still be those who can make huge bets. Racing is still a brag who has more wallet. We need something else so that even a not very rich player could win.

[ceastem]

Well if it's just amount won, wouldn't the high rollers still have a upper hand with this compared to those who bet low amounts? It won't make that much of a difference to me unless people are divided in groups or start with a certain balance.

Also, races are here so that we wager more to earn VIP stars. or please the high rollers (they're the main target of benefits) and not us low wagerers so it makes sense these competitions would favor them more.

[Aazzah]

Yeah I agree. To be honest, it is very pay to win. Us poor people stand no chance against these big betters.

Wagering race is better than the profit race. The more you play , the more you will get. Profit wager will be hard a lot than this. If you want to win from nothing you can try telegram challenge.

I do participate in the races and to be honest, the only reason I do is because is funny and chat and community becomes like crazy.  I set some amount of coins to race with all configurations, either to make profit or just to wager; and even if I can`t get a place in the top board I roll bets during the race.  Hidden mode is a good point BMG, but in order to avoid "beggars" they can do it.... That is what I was told few days ago, and makes sense for me.  Places vs %profit is a good idea, as far as they do it in percent numbers and not in nominative quantities.  Even if you have a very small amount wagered but if your profit percent is high you can get a top place... I would agree with that.   Good luck.

I prefer that system, where profit is used as a measure to determine that winners. Although, some players might find this unfair, because people who already made a big profit, are getting even more prize money lol.

[CntryBoy]

I do have to say that I like this idea, although I'm not sure Stake would be willing to do it for the same prize amounts.  This to me would be less attractive from Stake's point of view, because they make out much better with more and higher wagers, obviously.  Maybe they could do this sometimes and have a profit based race once or twice a week or something?  I'm fairly certain they would not want to do all races this way...

[Etude]

Well the people who have a considerable amount of larger bankroll definitely would beat the rest of the crowd rather easily in the Races of course. Even so that is why the races prize pool is divided to currently 100 winners to at least those who put in their best efforts despite bankroll disadvantage would get a share of the big pie.

[artizykristy]

It's only natural that the races are determined from a wager and they play on dice 1.01 which I think is a little safe. if the races are determined from the profit it makes them even more hesitant to play big even what they do is definitely just installing a small BB and looking for a very large payout to enter the top rank

is not really a race if the people are not on even field.. some one that has already .1 btc can jump up from start and no need to worry about anybody to take their spot.. so is not a fair race.. if every one starts at 50k btc.. and cannot reload unless is from rains or rakeback.. then we can actually see a real good race.. i know is about the wager.. but if you want to make it very interesting why not let us see whose actually playing smarter.. in stead of the amount wager.. what about the amount made.. if they can reach the amount for that prize gets it.. make it a real competition where everyone has no advantage from one another.. it gets boring seeing the hidden name taking top prize.. is not a race is more like what ever you got lets see how far you go.. at least you tried.. the race  still has a house edge seems new players to be on top.. is the race just for show.. if not.. put every player on equal footing..

Truebutthe races i beoieve are not a giveaway but a way for stake to make mich more profit from it because the wagering people do get loses so they make bucks.
