Title: The Bookie
Post by Ta`pez HoD on Feb 15th, 2005, 1:07pm

ok we are going to do this OOC


everybody will be getting 50 credits to bet.
since round 32 is already in the process we ll skip it.

so put your wagers on round 16 here.  You can split  
your credits to different rounds.

1000 credits gets you  Chang dagger of shame.


Currently we have the following odds on

T'lai vs Tank            1:1
T'apez vs Jack Green  4:1
Qol vs Talora  3:1
Kierran Odonell vs Reynolds 3:1  


The rules : the payout will be based on the player bet ratio - if your bet wins and you were betting against 5 other players then you will recieve your bet *5

HEY!  If I am dead, I can't collect my winnings.  By the way, if you lose, I am gonna steal those 50 credits from your quarters.  So you lose money if you lose the match

How exactly does this work?

I take it favorites are listed first?

So betting 20 on Qol (2-1 favorite) wins you +10 if she wins? And betting 20 on Jack Green (3:1 underdog) wins you +60 if he wins?

If that's the case, Ing, after observing the matches, calculatingly puts his entire 50 on Tank as a 2:1 underdog against T'lai.

Am I allowed to bet on myself?

If so, I am putting 20 on Q'ol, and 20 on me, and 10 on Ta'pez.

If I can't bet on myself, I am putting 20 on Q'ol, 15 on Ta'pez and 15 on Tank.

Also, you should come up with some other odds for the other competitions.

Title: Re: The Bookie
Post by Ta`pez HoD on Feb 17th, 2005, 12:46am

rather then assesing the ods of  winning -  everytime a player bets on Ta'pez  the payout grows smaller - i.e another number is added to Ta'pez.


so the ultimate thing you would bet against somebody likesay Green and then having an upset win with you cashing out on it.

50 on Tlai  

balance remaining = 0

Um, if you actually read my post, my bet was predicated on me winning 100 credits if Tank won... I'm not going to place any bets until I understand how this silly thing works.


So, in each given match, the people who bet on the winner split the money placed on the loser in proportion to the amount they bet?

In other words, if A fights B and I put 20 (out of a total of 100) on A, and a total of 50 were bet on B, then I would win (20/100)*50 = 10 credits.
Is that right?

What's the deadline for placing bets?
