    The Cell Gambling

    100% payouts? I think so.

    There are three ways to gamble on the Cell:

    Option 1 allows you to bet straight on the winner of the tournament. The payout for this will be 300% if you place your bet on the first day and will lose 10% each day following the tournament.

    Option 2 allows you to pick the top five placers in the tournament. This must be done before the first week of round one is completed. If you choose a placing player, you get 2 points. If you choose them at the right position you'll receive 10, 8, 6, 4, and 2 points respectfully (obviously in order from 1st to 5th). This is pool play. The winner is the hands out winner and receives the entire pool.

    Option 3 is the best. It is an over/under/spread bet based on a player's predicted score range. Before the tournament begins I will predict a player's score range and give a spread. You put in an amount and if you guess right you make 100% profit. How's that for making some extra GP.

    When you bet, please list your option and your over/under/spread if applicable. This will begin shortly after registration.

    Don't take any of this personally. Newer folks get larger ranges because there's not much to average you on.

    I'd like to bet 150 gold on Dissinger as outright winner.

    Are we allowed to bet with all three forms Max?

    (And 60-63? You shouldn't have!)

    A question: what happens if you bet on someone who gets disqualified, let's say for not making the 24h deadline or not posting at all? Do they get a score of zero for the sake of the bet or do you just lose the money?

    "Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity."
