Just curious about something... When you program something like "Plinko" for instance, do you pre-configure the route for those falling balls for a specific outcome or do they bounce on their own with a random outcome that are controlled somehow, to accommodate for the house edge?

Is this just a graphical representation of the actual outcome of the bets or are their luck involved with the bounce of the ball?

Nice theme update for the forum! The choice of light and dark is a welcomed bonus because some people like to bet in a dark room or at night so the dark theme is nicer on the eyes.

Don't forget the reduced battery drain on mobile phones with Amoled screens, darker colors reduce battery. I would like to see a full black theme too.

Excellent point you made. Didnt think these dark theme affected those on mobiles.
I guess this was the main goal  of those who created the theme and its initial intent instead of it being purely for aesthetics purposes

It is rightfully assumed that many people will be playing dice deep at night when no one like a spouse or parents (as well as children, for that matter) can see and catch them gambling away their family budget. And dark themes (and cryptocurrencies in general) contribute a lot to this privacy and secrecy. Back in the day there were programs that would catch a keystroke and show some innocent document while you were watching porno

But if it can help save battery along the way, then so be it

it is just the graphical representation of the actual outcome of the bets
you can see it when you start auto drop and tab out
when you return to the tab, almost all of the balls will drop simultaneously
the game is provably fair i.e. for every ball there is a result of the server seed+players seed+nonce combination that determines the result of every particular game
each and every ball is that separate game and first the result is calculated and then the visual representation is coded according to some predetermined paths
I think every result has 10-50 different graphical representations, sometimes when you are playing plinko long enough you recognize certain "troll balls"
when a ball jumps all the way to the centre from a surefire 1000x slot you were so hoping for

There is some post on the forums on stake about a release of stake 2.0
I am wondering what this is about and what would be the benefits they are proposing with this new integration to the site?

Several pages back one of the brand managers posted about the new game (video poker) to be added soon and some games are in progress of getting redesigned. Chartbet will become a multiplayer instead of single player like playing in a live casino. Plinko's payout was changed recently keno might be next since they're looking for suggestions from the community.

I'll always go with a dark theme over a light one given a choice, I dont want to be staring at a brightened lightbulb for any period of time.   In practise I could alter all sorts of monitor settings and adjust it that way but its not what happens in effect.   For chrome I'll often get the lights off extension installed or similar to dim the default super bright catchy themes most websites go with

Dark themes will always better for gamblers' eyes.
Of course, there are gamblers who like bright themes, instead, but for a long consecutive period staying in front of computer screens, I think dark themes are helpful and help us maintains our eyesights better.

Would go with dark theme as well, for gamblers who light to spend their whole day in gambling it's good for them.
Most of the sites I sign up have dark them, and even trading sites nowadays has dark them, if there is an option for light and dark theme, it's better.

Bright color sometimes makes our eyes easy to tired that's why people including me are more likely to choose dark theme than bright theme to see particular website especially if we want to stay hours in the front of computer to visiting and gamble at the casinos

Actually it is best to have light and dark mode to make sure people can adapt with the site. But overall I can say it does not really matter to the game though, it just keep players to stay longer and have a better options. But it is such a good options to make there, as long as I can keeps getting profit then anyone will always back to the site

The way sites are designed with good color do really actract people though that do not really matter to me.  However,  I believe in the genuinty of the stake. com sites and that is most important.

Agreed they do attract people in the right way but the functionality of the site is the main draw to a casino site. It keeps their customers coming back. I do like how the chat on the site is linked to what is going on their forum. Like showing when a a new post is made and when someone is tipped for making a post. It is always a bonus to see these notifications while chatting with someone on the site.

Yeah, I don't know when this "dark theme" thing started but the first thing I remember being dark on default was actually discord. Which is incredibly new as well but considering everything else I visited was always either white or had some open color to it then the theme never really mattered since it was just design.

Even slack which is quite new didn't have dark theme to start with but added later on. Discord was the only place that really started out with it on day 1 which I assume got so much praise that now people say even youtube has a dark theme (never really checked) which means its going very well for everywhere else as well, soon google, facebook and all other big places will have dark themes as well. Just as in tradition, crypto evolves faster and that is why forum has dark theme before all huge corporations who react slowly to these things.
