Gambling Thread - Week of September 26-27 - Page 6

KCWolfman · 09-21-2004, 06:29 PM

MOST IMPORTANT - If you are not on the Leaderboard (click here) then I am not placing your bets. Check the leaderboard before you bet.

Everyone starts with 10,000 credits. Read the Rules (click here)carefully. If I catch any errors in your bets before the game starts, I will try to notify you, but I am not ultimately responsibly.

After you are sure of the rules come back here and place your bets on this thread. The odds are on Week Three Odds - Click Here

Important - The Monday Night Game does not yet have odds released. I will check again tomorrow

I will take your bets from this page and place them on the Week Three Odds Page

I STRONGLY advice that you refresh the pages before referring to them, especially if you have cookies activated.

Also note this very important fact: You are responsible for insuring your bets are placed accurately. Check it to insure your bets are correct. Remember - only you can prevent bad bet placement

IMPORTANT RULE - DO NOT EDIT YOUR BETS AFTER YOU HAVE PLACED THEM. INSTEAD START A NEW REPLY WITH THE WORDS "CHANGE BET(S)" AT THE BEGINNING OF THE POST

This will help me in keeping up with bet placement and changes without becoming an accountant and referee.

As a first timer I don't see the need for the drama. You want to cheat to win in a non money bet fun game go for it. Doesn't bother me. It's a reflection on your charecter but ooohhhweelllll.... If you know someone cheated turn their butts in if you feel strongly about it. It doesnt have to be public.

I have been the admin of bb's in the past and I can tell you very easily if a post was deleted or altered and who did it. Now I don't know if that is the case here or not.

I am not a moderator so I can't see sh*t. I totally trust Russ but will ask another moderator to look if it helps. I think my idea covers this problem in the future it's dealing with this present situation that I need to resolve.

I suppose Russ and myself could step aside so nobody thinks the system is manipulated, I would hate to do that but we can if we must. I could also copy the gambling thread just before games start on sunday morning, Sunday evening and Monday night and have a 3rd person do that as well, maybe Coogs. I am open to suggestions. This has been a blast in the past I would hate to have a bunch of drama in the future. I am open to any suggestions.

As someone who won't be affected this season (I'm broke), I suggest that you keep things the way they are. It's not like there is real money involved. Let the honor system and the threat of being caught cheating take care of things. I see no reason for you and Wolfman to make things more complicated for yourselves than necessary. IIRC, Coogs wasn't asking for any administrative changes.

You should also check out Taco's vBookie system at OrangeMane. It might be a way to reduce your workload if you do this again in the future and it would also fix this type of "phantom bet" problem.

Either way, thanks to both you and Wolfman for the game.

wasn't me.........no net access from friday through late sunday night.

that said.........I don't see that any totals have been added.

If someone cheated, on a fun-only game...you suk baows.

Chiefnj · 09-29-2004, 01:44 PM

Cheating with imaginary money?? Why bother.

BIG_DADDY · 09-29-2004, 01:49 PM

I think we have this resolved moving forward. I will make a copy just before games so if your really worried about it check 5 minutes before the game. If you can't do that I would accept a PM stating your bet was made on the thread. I highly doubt we will ever have an issue though we haven't for years.

Who the hell would bet on the Bucs for $5000 anyway. If he/she is that stupid then they deserve to be called out into the open. IMHO

this thread is worthless without ratting on the dirty rotten cheater...
