Guys it's been pointed out that iDice is a likely scam. Please consider before you invest.
"Guys its very likely this is a scam or a ripoff. Compare their contract to etherolls, they have copied and pasted tonnes of it.


Just compare the first 350ish lines of code. Or select a random line and compare the two, they are near identical. Ctrl F in idices for the word 'etheroll', you will find it.
They admit it on the announcement thread: The only working code they have at the minute is copied from etheroll, and they even admit it also:

I hope this stays up. Sad to see people lose their money. iDice is also putting out paid press releases to further promote their scam. Etherolls contract: https://etherscan.io/address/0xece701c76bd00d1c3f96410a0c69ea8dfcf5f34e#code iDice contract from on the website link: https://etherscan.io/address/0xe6517b766E6Ee07f91b517435ed855926bCb1AaE#code "Thanks for expressing interest! This is currently our beta release and we acknowledge that we have used etheroll's contracts as a reference. Our contract source code can be found on: https://idice.io. Dice contracts are all similar due to use of open source blockchain-based oraclize.it to retrieve random integers supplied by Random.org via TLSNotary. The iDice smart contract then performs encryption on the integer provided by random.org and the IPFS address of the TLSN proof to compute the game result. We've also contracted random.org for our own API keys, so we are not associated with any others. This way, we ensure that iDice will generate random numbers without 3rd party interference of the games final result. We'd love to add that our platform beta release is extremely popular as we've received nearly 1000 with positive feedback from our players. Our official iDice mobile and desktop platforms will feature an optimized source code to deliver a smooth and reliable user experience."

You can take almost for granted, that they will run away with the money. No one will every have any return from that. This makes me really sad. People from around the globe start to put money in now. 114'000$ worth of Ether at the time of writing. Here you can follow live:
