I would have faith in my fellow sub plotters, but then I look at the roster, and then it makes me bet 500 saying a main plotter will win. Then I take a second look and say it'll be a girl that emerges victorious, which means another five hundred. THeres my bets.
-1000

-Guys.. >.< Its not really a main against sub thing.. its a free for all, but if Tempest allows you to bid on that then w/e.. >.>
Krops - September 25, 2004 05:14 AM (GMT)
Well I know its not MP vs SP (LMAO funny abreviations) I'm just saying I think a person from the main plots will win.

I'll be using Lyra's formula:
(B/T)E, where "B" is the amount bet, "T" is the total amount of bets on the winner, and "E" is the total amount on the persons who lost.
1/4 for the winner
3/4 for the people who bet
-There is no max bet, only a minimum of 100
-The amount of money bet has to end in at least "00" .i.e. 100, 200, 2000, etc.
-You cannot bet on main or subs; it's individual betting only
-If you are participating, you cannot bet until you've been killed.

Can you place a bet on more than one person??
Once I have my answer I'll edit this post with my bet(s)
EDIT: Right then 500 on Hijinx, 400 on Rhilla, 300 on Kiwi and 300 on Cypher
I couldn't make my mind up and I'm not using the money for anything else right now.

Darkstar - September 30, 2004 10:34 AM (GMT)
100 on Cypher
100 on Nighthand
200 on Zavier (IF he decides to compete)
(-400GP)
ooc: just a few questions. are these gunna be organized matches, like a tournament? if not, how can you tell if the person you are betting on wins a match? ah don't really know how free for all works yet, :blink:. and what if two of the people you bet on go up against each other? if someone could answer these questions, i'd be good to go!! ^_^

If this plays out like a duel, then betting on who would be the last one alive is kind of foolish. Now, betting on who will have the best posts and be judged the winner would make much more sense. So which are we supposed to bet on, or can we bet on both? I hope this forum isn't IC.
lugiablaster - September 30, 2004 09:54 PM (GMT)
(OOC: Battle Royale is already underway. It's in the Special Events section. You can just check there. If two people you bet on go against each other, then see who wins... I guess. It's played out as a last man standing, which seems unreasonable, considering the fact that description is what we're suppose to strive for... And Hijinx could just pull out a nuke and blast the whole place... And I'm not sure if it's IC or OOC. Just using OOC incase...)
The_End_Cypher - October 1, 2004 05:10 PM (GMT)
It's not IC. You just bet on whoever you want to win. Not judging...just who you think will win.
EDIT:
I added the new bets.
SilentEclipse - October 1, 2004 07:49 PM (GMT)
I place a 100GP on Nighthand and another 100GP on Zavier Dragonus
-200GP
Asura - October 1, 2004 09:57 PM (GMT)
Whooo! I'll bet 100 GP on the special guest...
-100 GP.
Darkstar - October 2, 2004 12:14 AM (GMT)
crap... ok. ehh... when someone wins/ loses against another, do we automatically use the forumula ourselves and just add the sum to our GP signature info?? or do we have to announce that "hey i won this and i get this much munney and crap" in this topic?? *runs off to read thread*
KamiKazeKiwi3 - October 2, 2004 05:43 AM (GMT)
I don't think the math or concept is that difficult. Nothing happens with the money until the last person is determined. Anyone who bet for the winner gets a percentage from 3/4 of what everyone bet out. Everyone else gets zero and the winner gets 1/4 of all the bets.
*places a banner with a message against a stand*
Support your Subplot comrades. We intend to win.
Your current chances of hitting a correct gamble per person are 1 out of 18. I ran a calculated potential program for the last tournament but it is more difficult this time because it does not take hacks into account.
Mirelle Tsurugu - October 2, 2004 11:49 PM (GMT)
100 GP says that Wren shows 'em all who's boss!
-100 GP
Edit: Whoops. Sorry, Asura-chan. My mind went off on a tangent while I was writing. My mistake. O.o
Asura - October 3, 2004 12:05 AM (GMT)
Wait... I'm in the Battle Royale? Mirelle, you might want to remove your bet!
Yuki Sato - October 3, 2004 02:50 AM (GMT)
500 GP on Zavier!
and...
500GP on Wren!
The_End_Cypher - October 3, 2004 04:39 AM (GMT)
Darkstar...the GP will be posted for the people who obtain it, and you have to post that you picked it up.
Darkstar - October 3, 2004 05:05 AM (GMT)
Lol, I gotcha Cypher. I just got myself confused for a moment. *sits quitely and asks no more questions* :lol:
Sasuke - October 8, 2004 06:14 AM (GMT)
(OOC: Man.. with all the people out of the runnings for winner for the event, you guys should place new bets on the 7 that are left living in it. That way.. if you lose money on one person, you MAY gain money on another... well, if that is allowed, betting on two people.)
Uhh.. I can't bet.. but if i could.. i'd bet on Ces. oh well

KamiKazeKiwi3 - October 8, 2004 07:34 AM (GMT)
There is something irregular about the party being killed off. I wouldn't count it just yet because Cypher and Tempest don't know what the other is doing. I was trying to get Cypher to do his judge work on something while Tempest wanted everyone to move, since she doesn't know about the request.
Cesriah - October 8, 2004 09:34 PM (GMT)
^_^; Thanks Sasu, but uh...I wouldn't bet on me. Really. I'm the weakest level there, I believe. -checks Tempest's post on who's still in- Yep. Maybe you could bet that I'm the next to die? That'll get you money, for sure! -grin-
