Great idea for zpoints

cashman04 · 01-31-2008, 08:17 AM

We need a bookie. Bet on sports games and stuff, that could be fun.
What are the odds on the giants? Ill put all mine on them, just cause its a long shot.

k-man2 · 01-31-2008, 10:05 AM

hahah that could work pretty good as long as everyone really donates their bets to the winner

mr.handsomeman · 01-31-2008, 10:07 AM

maybe if you set it up with the administrators, they could make that certain person donate.

Scrapz616 · 01-31-2008, 10:56 AM

that wud b pretty cool
but yea u have 2 make sure the ppl actually give up their zb if they lose or win

CameleonMK · 01-31-2008, 11:02 AM

You can just do that yourself. You don't need admin for that.

how do you do that?

the honor system is flawed though, people would place bets and not pay out.
now if there was an automated system where when you placed your bet your $zB was taken from your account and placed in a "bank" until payout time then we wouldnt have to worry about it.

Just make a thread and people will post how much they will put up and that's that.

But the above posted are right.

this would be cool

CameleonMK · 01-31-2008, 12:00 PM

As far as trust, you could tell them to put up in advance. Just donate it to a trusty(such as myself), someone who you know won't be like "eff you all I'm keeping it". And then after the trusty will give it to whoever won.

Good way to loose $zB.

CameleonMK · 01-31-2008, 12:09 PM

But if that's what they want....I mean people bet/gamble all the time.
