This is going to be the most interesting betting comp yet with all the big guns eliminated.

handle marc , u just got eliminated :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

it will be unfair if decisions are reversed as the true spirit of betting will go away , and that means that ppl on 0 will get another chance that would be extremely Unfair , as if i was on 0 i would handle and just blame myself for betting on something i might have been unsure on

Well bettings like that , so u just gotta accept the fact of getting eliminated

And please i hope there arent any Loans either that will spoil the betting..

All of them who r saying that they didnt got loan r right,I also didnt got.But that was too late in the season.Almost in the 4th last week of the season when others like marc were far ahead and there was no point as no one could overtake him.

But this time around it has happened in the 2nd week itself and if we all have to sit out then there will not be much interest left in betting.Many r not betting this season so the interest will be very less.

All i think is to give the bankrupt ones 10k on loan.Cant we start it this season.The refund which will be taken will increase by 1000 every week for the first 5 weeks then by 2000 every week for the next five week and so on.

So if i get 10k then the return will be
after 1st week-11k
2nd-12k
3rd-13k
4th-14k
5th-15k
6th-17k
7th-19k
and so on.

This will help everyone to stay on the scene even if anyone is bankrupt and the interest will not die.

I leave the decision on GB.Whatever his decision is will be accepted.

The true spirit of betting would have allowed for results with no odds quoted to be refunded.

I think loans should be totally eliminated , and i doubt if the interest in betting will decrease , as the number right now itself seems enough to get a decent winner at the end of the season...

if u were going to start loans u should have said it at the start of teh season!!!! i think it's entirely unfair to do it now just because ppl r whingeing!!!! they were stupid enuff to bet al of their money! i mean had the bet come off they would be streaks ahead... and then if some1 went bankrupt trying to catch them would they get a loan? of course not! so don't employ double-standards. the ppl who r bankrupt r ou! their fault entirely! IF UR OUT, UR OUT! and it's entirely ur fault!!

i think we should continue as is, bankrupt people not involved and the rest of us keep on playing.

That's needless abuse Muzza, Aditya only asked for opinions on the situation which didn't require you giving a post full of abuse back.

I suggest you take a look at GB's rules - WCC Rules

I was at the casino once and i placed a bet on someone elses box, it is against the rules and so I got a spanking!

But i ddn't lose my money, as the person was my mate.

Moral of the story: I like stories.

Ok, heres whats GOING to happen...

All people who have lost their money will be given $10000...

This will be recorded and then at the end of the season they will be deducted $20000 like Bronco has suggested...

I think its the fairest way to do this...

Also Aditya would it be possible from now on to give odds for a Draw on every game...

I would also like to point people to the new thread that has been posted by myself and take note of the rules and responsibilities as a manager...

Guys if you have a problem with it, contact me...

This is a fair solution for both parties...

The betting is a fun aspect to the game and if it is going to start arguments then i will get Aditya to stop it...

This thread really should be shut down and the betting either restarted or continued in a thread where only the actual betting results are posted.
