Hmm, i think you should go easy on the beer, we won't see the other player if we're all drunk...

Hmm, could someone bring the official onion for the game?

((yes it was.. please mark as OOC>>>>))

DOn't worry about liles... he is just a knight and an expert bowman... nothing to worry about much.

Eliron snickers as he writes the note

Isilwen · Post by **Isilwen** » Fri Oct 28, 2005 7:35 pm

((For those of you that dont gamble... I shall attempt to explain the odds a little further. If the odds are 1:1 you gain 1 copper for every copper you bet. You ALWAYS get your stake back. For 3:1 odds, you get 3 copper for every 1 copper bet. This means that the bookie (me) thinks its less likely this dude will win, and so I give higher winnings, in an attempt to get people to bet for him. However, the more people that bet for him the more the odds will lower, because unless Im SURE he wont win, I dont want people placing one sided bets, cause if he does win, Im broke.

So...

For the first game, If you bet 3 copper on Eliron, and he wins, you get 4 coppers off me (1 copper + your stake) If you bet 1 copper on Lina, and she wins, you get 3 coppers off me (2 copper + your stake) Therefore, Eliron is the favourite for the match, as his odds are lower. I think Eliron will win, and so I raise the odds for Lina in an attempt to get you to bet for the looser, so I can walk away with your cash.

If anyone else wants a try at explaining...))

A
Eliron VS 1:3 (10 copper win off a 30 copper bet)
Lina Eralia 2:1 (you get your stake back with a win)

B
Liles VS 1:2
Kevin Lightdot 2:1

C
Saradomin VS 1:2
Drogla Dreglo 1:1

D
Fooser VS 1:10
Jacob Kent 8:1

Odds WILL change at the time according to amount placed on players.

Odds for overall winner are:

Eliron 1:3
Lina Eralia 3:1
Liles 1:2
Kevin Lightdot 2:1
Saradomin 2:1
Drogla Dreglo 3:1
Fooser 1:10
Jacob Kent 5:1

Again these bets will change according to the amount placed on each player.

((I should be able to attend the first match, but my timetable is a little shakey, so dont hold me to it))

Llama · Post by **Llama** » Fri Oct 28, 2005 10:04 pm

Hmm, confusing to say the least...Please make a bit more clear for us all

((First game..last game on same day...))

Fooser · Post by **Fooser** » Fri Oct 28, 2005 11:44 pm

What the man is trying to say is: I shall win

Make sense now?

bye

Bets will be taken on the night, as I want to collect the money as and when it is placed. Otherwise you can all bet on paper, and then when you loose not pay me.

Kevin Lightdot · Post by **Kevin Lightdot** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 9:08 pm

can we bet just before the game starts? say 10 minutes
