Pagoda Gambling

[Christoph]

Now you don’t need to battle in order to strike it rich at the Pagoda! Now you can play a game of chance and hopefully profit off of the hard work of the battlers. The system is simple:


To post a wager in this thread, you must include the following things:

A link to the battle in question – this is for convenience.

The combatant you wish to bet on – the one you think is going to win.

How much you are wagering – any amount is allowed, though it is wise to choose an amount of GP that others will be willing and able to accept.

The odds/payout ratio – this represents how much of an advantage or disadvantage your chosen battler has in your opinion, and it also decided how much GP another gambler would need to accept your bet. Example: You place a wager of 500 GP on Player A, but set the odds as 2:1 in the favor of Player A against Player B. This would mean that someone accepting your bet would only need to put forth 250 GP. As with the quantity being wagered, you may set this as whatever you like, but keep in mind that you want to make your open wager appealing to other potential gamblers. On that note, items may also be wagered against gold or other items.

Notes: Hierarchs and challengers MAY bet on themselves, but may NOT bet against themselves. All wagers must be placed and accepted before 7th post is made. A judge, obviously, cannot bet on threads that he/she is judging.

More notes: Default wins/losses count the same way as regular wins and losses here. It's just another thing to keep in mind when betting.
