#43 Saloon.tf in Projects

Hard to tell right now, it won't be easy, but if I get first week of holidays free then it might be possible.

I'm a little busy atm with my end of the year exams, but after I'm done with these (17th July) I will hopefully get back to work. Well I also got a paid job and it's really not helping, but that's not the really the reason for my recent absence.
I don't really know how my vacations are going to look like, but I really hope to have it ready before the next ETF2L's season (6v6).
To be honest I don't really browse teamfortress.tv forums as I am more active on ETF2L, but you can usually catch me on steam: http://steamcommunity.com/id/123coke or on Quakenet's #etf2l.

As for taking over the project, I am not going to abandon nor hand it over anytime soon unless something serious comes up, but if you know Python, JS or HTML/CSS and you're willing to help me you're more than welcomed to send me a message.

Just wanted to add that even though the server is in Seattle I set up a CDN for it.
If I'll be happy with CloudFlare and my project will get enough interest I'll propably buy PRO package, if not I will just buy VPSes in Amsterdam, Moscow and Singapore to deliver content like images or scripts.

Bought VPS in Seattle propably in the same datacenter as Steam since I have 0.6-0.8 ms latency to steamcommunity.com servers :)

There's easter and I am preparing a party for my 18th birthday so there hasn't been much progress, but before that I was working on the backend:

#36 Sezco made me decide to post this in TF2 General Discussion
foxyHey, I'm one of the TF2Center devs. Sorry I'm rushed for time, but I'll respond later properly. Just wanted to say I think this looks cool, and we should discuss how we can integrate more easily (I assume you're using steam browser which has some known issues - maybe they jump up the priority list)

MasterNoob already knows, talked with him earlier :)

shiznoMa3laasky_Items definitely help a lot, considering how many people play UGC just for the medals. Tradable prizes might be even higher incentive? The problem is advertising it to the pubbers since the difference with medals is that they're basically free advertising for the league.
http://saloon.tf/

If items can be bet on the game, then people will watch.

If people watch comp tf2 and the stream numbers go up, more people will play comp tf2 and more sponsors and organizations will pay attention to the game.

If more organizations sponsor teams/leagues/events, more people will play because there will be more to play for (bigger prizes, more competition,etc, etc, etc.)
Does saloon.tf have a LIVE NOW thing like dota2 lounge? That would increase viewers by a good amount

It will have, but it's not even beta :)

hazThe issue with changing keys straight to metal is that people will be reluctant to deposit keys at all as they are pretty much on a constant rise. I would exchange them on bet rather than on deposit, so that people know that by having keys deposited they aren't losing value.

It would be really awkward in my honest opinion, keys should either be bet(?) or they shouldn't be part of virtual inventory at all, and making a trade with keys buying bots when someone bets keys would also overcomplicate the process

hazOther ideas:
Rosters come up if you click on a team maybe?
Could help people see who they are betting on

That's not a bad idea.

hazHave a friends bar on the side where you can see how much your steam friends have lost/won recently, sort of like the duels thing you see on map change

This one could discourage betting if they see that they friends lost, I like this one much better:

hazAlso maybe a scoreboard of biggest winners each week? Could encourage betters.
Allow comments on matches so people can shit talk about how they are gonna win big on this one

How withdrawals work
Withdrawing item was very hard to design as Valve wants us to specify exact item that we want to trade rather than just any refined metal. This is real problem when two users want the same item and bot has to decline one trade so I had to implement some sort of queue like you can see on scrap.tf and other automated trading websites.
Bot could send offers himself, taking care of choosing correct items, but then users will need to give me their secret token and it makes the site overcomplicated, since I want signing up as easy as signing in.
So I decided to make withdrawal work the same way as deposit, you click on withdrawal button, establish connection with bot and when you reach first place in line you get Trade just like in the previous case. The only difference is that you need to select bots inventory and items that you want to get from him instead of giving him items from yours. If you select more than 2 items of the same kind (except refs), like 3 scraps or 4 recs your trade will be declined automatically, otherwise if you fit in 120 seconds timeframe your trade will get accepted.

I also hope that it'll show pubs competitive side of a game.
I will give you an update tommorow since I already turned off my computer.
Anyway I need to contact Scrap.TF so if any of you knows them please ask them if they could contact me. Unfortunately none of them is accepting my friend requests :/

chiveI was actually thinking about something like this, but it's more like a bank. You can put refined metal in "the bank" and it gains interest. In return, the bank owners can loan that money for profit, just like a normal bank. Does anything like this exist?

Nah, and there won't be anything like this. Imagine how hard it will be to get the metal back from people.

The main page crashes

LtSteveThe Saltybet way of handling payouts may be a good idea for this, where the winners earn a percentage of the losers pool based on what percentage of the winners pool they staked. So if your bet is 10% of the winners pool, you get 10% of the losers pool + your bet back. Provides an incentive to bet underdog (dreams!), which helps keep the odds in check somewhat.

I will propably do something like that.

Anyway the website is supposed to crash on index, but there's not much to do on other pages anyway.
