Because of the upcoming Football season I'm trying something out. It's called vBookie and it will (hopefully) allow us to use our hard-earned HB to gamble on the outcomes of the games. We can also use this for hockey games, baseball games, etc. although each event would have to be set up individually so I don't see this happening.

I have no idea how it's going to work at this point or if it's tied correctly in with HalBucks yet. Bear with me. This post is a test.

The message says "You have 1 HalBucks and have placed 0 bet(s) on this Event." This is despite me having far more than 1 single HalBuck.

Also, trying to bet 1 HalBuck makes it tell me I don't have enough cash to cover my bet. Betting 20 HalBucks, though, worked fine.

Something's not working right, or I'm using it wrong.

No, I'm trying to get it to recognize HB. In the stats panel it says who the richest people are & they show HB, but the actual betting part doesn't.

In any event, the betting ends at 3 CST - about 5 minutes from now. I need to see how to pick the winner.

We need a way of betting on cage matches. I'd place all my money on DocSevrin. Or maybe Charon.

Nah, Terrik'd win. He can just set his lil' kitteh loose in the cage when he enters. The opponents will be too busy awwwhing at it to notice they're in a headlock.

And when in a headlock Doc Sevrin would hand him his kidneys and spleen. Charon'd taze him (bro?) etc. For every kitten there is an equal and opposite tazer.

Nay, by then they would be busy trying to get the kitteh to stop clawing their eyes out ^.^

you live in a cute fluffy world. I almost envy that. But I still don't think the Kitten'd win.

This will be used for fun stuff like betting on the Fantasy Football games. I'll make my odds and you guys can bet on them.

Betting on Cage matches isn't fun?

Blood and gore but no sex! That's the American way!
