Card Counting

Is it against the rules to use JS to card count in the BlackJack gambling thing?

    I doubt that the decks operate like that
  • They don't.

  • Always read the fine print...


  • That's exactly what I'd write shortly before coding a single deck blackjack, though, too.
  • Way more work coding a deck limit though...
  • Its code, there has to be an algorithm of sorts whether it be a deck or a certain thing. I'd like to look at that parts source code TBH.
  • Why would it have to be... an infinite deck would be infinitely easier to implement. I’m sure there are blackjack programs out there in nearly every language if you are looking for examples.
  • Also, if you're trying to code a way to exploit a way of making gold here, you'll be shrubbery pretty damn quickly.

  • Eh, come on. What do I look like? An imbecile? I ain't trying to. It's just fun to see how many ways you could cheat if you wanted to.

    This, combined with the previous post stating your desire to see source code is a pretty solid way to make sure you never get brought on as a coder/volunteer.

    Yes

    This is the same line of reasoning that a lot of botters in MMO follow. "I have a bot, but I don't use it! But I totally could if I wanted to!"

    And then a month later you found out they got banned for botting.

  • You guys are kind of ridiculous.

    It's not against the rules to cure darkshade before paralysis via triggers, if darkshade is about to kill you. It's not against the rules to write a script to try to count cards. It is against the rules to spam eat bloodroot after you eat ginseng if that could bypass the herb balance limit. It would also be against the rules to try to break the functionality of blackjack somehow.

    It would also be against the rules to write a script that plays blackjack while you go do something else.

    Triggers should not:
    - Use or abuse bugs/loopholes
    - Be used while you are away from the keyboard to generate gold/exp/etc.
    - Spam somebody else out

    Triggers can:
    - Solve problems you're too lazy to solve
    - React to things you're too slow to react to
    - Modify how you respond to prompts

    Well yeah, because you can't count cards in Achaea.

    They throw you out of casinos if they think you're doing that, no reason they wouldn't in Achaea if such a thing were possible. (and it was able to be monitored)

    They also arrest you for murder IRL. How many life sentences should Proficy be serving? It's not like the Ace of Spades is going to declare bankruptcy because they managed their odds incorrectly and ran out of gold. This is a game, playing the game well is the point, minigames included.

    This would actually probably be okay...because it would most assuredly be a gold sink in the long run.  =)

    Like the Hashan Comms market, right? ;)

  • Me: I kinda want to see it's source code

    Everybody: Botter

    Me: wtf
  • Literally all you have to do is write the code to draw with replacement rather than draw without replacement. It's infinitely more simple to make a card-counting insensitive Blackjack than otherwise, because all you have to do is make every draw from the deck equivalent to the first draw. To make a deck countable, you'd have to store the results of all previous draws to assure they can't be drawn again. To make a deck uncountable, you just... don't do that. I don't know why they'd have gone through additional work to make it easier for people to cheat it.  =)
  • Me: I kinda want to see it's source code, also is it against the rules to cheat by using JS?

    Everybody: Botter

    Me: wtf
    Fixed that for you.

    I never said I wanted to cheat lol, was asking what was cheating. Assuming Counting Cards isn't cheating cause I ain't walking away and I still have to type commands it just sends back what I should send if I were to add it which I haven't yet.

    Everyone was compensated to their set thresholds in that transaction. But it could likely be considered a gold sink for one of the parties involved... especially when it resumes  :p
