If you want to play Coinflip you pretty much have to click the blue button on the bottom. But because the text displayed when you win is longer (it also says: "Prize: x amount of coins", that's why) this blue button is constantly moving up and down depending on whether you win or lose. This means that I constantly have to slide my finger up and down because I'm on a laptop, which gets annoying when you play a lot of Coinflip like me. If you can just click it's easy, but constantly adjusting where you have to click is pretty tiring if you have to do it hundreds or thousands of times.

So my suggestion is that it no longer displays what the prize is when you won, because it already says that it is twice the amount of your bet. It's not hard to figure out, and this way the text for winning is just as long as the text for losing and the blue button won't move around anymore.

Basically this is major nitpicking, but I think it would improve the coinflipping experience. And it's more bothersome than for example small typo's, but those have to get fixed as well even though they're not that big of a deal (in my humble opinion).

Well there is an easy way. You can press: 'CTRL' + '+' to make the page more bigger so that the button doesn't go up and down very much when you you win or lose. To move the Page back to smaller you can press: 'CTRL' + '-'. Easy :3
Also if you are suggesting some thing then it should be in the suggestion forum. Not in the Bug/Complaints forum

Another easy solution for laptop users. Hit F5 then enter. It will repeat the action of the coin flip with the bet you have put in.

This is how I play, so I don't have to worry about the button after the first flip.

@Humza: Increasing the display size doesn't help making it move up or down less. Everything just looks bigger, but it still moves up and down. Also this is fine under the Complaints section. It even says "dislike something? post it here!" and I dislike this button moving up and down, so yeah :3

@Navuso: Then you're clicking twice as many buttons, and I like to switch around between heads and tails too. It's possibly the most inconvenient and slowest way to play.

These replies prove that there's a problem that people are trying to find a way around, but they don't really succeed. It only strengthens my argument that there's something that needs to be fixed.

Actually if you put your mouse around the bottom of the button when you lose, you don't need to move your mouse for when you win ;)

Bump

All these tricks really don't help... in the end it's still the same and it's really frustrating (especially when you're on a losing streak). Everytime you switch from head to tails and go back to the button it does it again.

I think this should be on the Suggestion Forum, so I'm moving this there

.3. I already forgot about this topic. Although yeah it would be nice if the displayed text for losing and winning was aligned properly so you can just keep clicking away. It doesn't sound like a big deal but if this was happening in the clicklists too I'm pretty sure people would start complaining about it.

Volcarona stated a very simple was to solve your problem. What he said is the way I do it. I use a laptop also, and I don't have to move it around constantly if I find the right spot where I could keep the mouse, whether I win or lose.
