Default Great idea for zpoints

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.

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

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

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.
