Fair Dice Protocol | Game Testing
The Fair.dice Game Testing Project is run and maintained by Douglas Reay and is aimed pretty much solely at the Online Gaming Industry, although any game utilising a random number generator will do.
How it all works will have to be a matter of investigation for me and a learning curve so I will be visiting The Fair.dice Message Board frequently from now on to find out what gives about this open source random number generator/game testing project.
Anything that is Open Source, therefore the code is checkable by the public, is sure to be a welcome attempt at keeping an eye on the old enemy, ie the layers, especially online casino software/providers.
Transparency is King for the Honest Gambling Operations and Fair Gaming Advocates alike.

When you are physically sitting at a table, and see a dealer roll a die, shuffle a deck of cards, or spin a Roulette wheel, you can see what is going on. That's why you trust them enough to stake money on the outcome.
But who'd trust a dealer who insisted on rolling their dice hidden behind a screen, and who wanted just to tell you the results and have you believe him when he said you'd lost?
That's the current situation with the online gaming industry, and that is what Project Fairdice is setting out to change.
What is the Fair.dice Protocol?
Event Selection means picking one of a possible number of outcomes. So for instance, rolling a six sided die is one means of selecting between six possible outcomes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Other examples are: shuffling a deck of cards, spinning a roulette wheel or flipping a coin.
The Fairdice Protocol is a means by which several people may collaborate to select an event in a manner which is provably fair to all of them. In other words, it remove the screen and forces the dealer to roll their dice in the open, where everyone involved can see they are not fixing the result
Gamblog Comment :: It all sounds good, is original because it is open source and the proprietor is not a gambler, which may be a good thing, I can't be sure. Good luck Mr Douglas Reay I say. Nice to have you on board The Fair Gaming Scarey Ghost Train.
