EtherSport Testing Rules Adjustment

Caution! This adjustment to the playing process applies to every forecaster and may change the lines outcome.

The EtherSport Lottery 11 smart contract has a fixed lifetime. It is programmed to stop and calculate all payouts within a few hours after the last sporting event’s scheduled end. If an event gets delayed and postponed beyond that point, the contract will not receive the correct result, which may cause erroneous prizes.

Previously, we have marked such delayed events as a draw or a victory of the 1st team, if the sport discipline can’t have draw results. As far as using this situation is not against the platform rules, it may be used for increasing the winning chance, which harms the fairness of the process.

To avoid this possibility, all lines after January 31st, 2018 will be simply cancelled in case of cancellation, postponement or a delay of any match in the line.

This change may be also applied to the smart contracts for following platform versions and to the EtherSport Lottery 11 ruleset, once we test it during the current prize-winning testing period.

Take part in the testing period to help us developing the EtherSport platform more fair, transparent and convenient to use.

Have a lucky day!
