Betting In The Martial Arts, Boxing, and Wrestling Forum v2.1

(v2.0 located here)
(v1.0 located here)

Disclaimer: This is a public service announcement that is applicable for this section only. The content of this post is solely the opinion of the thread creator. D2JSP does not support or endorse betting.

Betting Tips
    If you're new to this forum, we recommend that you use a mediator. It may be slightly more of a hassle, but it helps ensure you receive your hard-earned FG. Make sure to take time to read their rules (usually located in their profile), as it helps them out greatly. More information about mediators below.

    Avoid betting via PM without making a thread. Make sure both parties confirm in-thread. When in doubt, put it in a thread. It makes it very difficult to determine if a welch has occurred or not. Moreover, D2JSP does not endorse betting and will not tag a welcher as a scammer. When in doubt, use a mediator, that's what they're here to do.

Mediators
    Currently there are the following mediators (in alphabetical order): FatZero, hATemOnkEy, lncarnaxim, and MerleHaggard. Remember to follow the guidelines listed in their profiles, especially in regard to sending FG. In addition to mediating bets, lncarnaxim will also oversee additions to the bettor's list and script. When using FatZero as a mediator, please follow the rules listed in lncarnaxim's profile.

Obtaining 'Active' Status in the MABW Forum
    PM lncarnaxim with at least 6 bets from at least 4 different events. Links to betting threads are the best, but a screenshot of your gold log will be more than adequate.

Reporting A Welcher
    lncarnaxim will handle the welching accusations. Please provide him with as much evidence as you can (screenshots of PMs/gold logs, links to threads) to assist him. Be warned that if you intentionally try to falsely label someone as a welcher, this will only result in your own name being added to the list. Misunderstandings do happen, but let's just all try to get along. :D

The MMA Script
    Like some of the other betting forums, we use a script that updates users frequently on betting status. You can read more about it here. This is the most current list of bettor status in this sub-forum, so if you're using Firefox, this is a handy tool.

Calculating Betting Odds
    Here is a thread for those of you that still have lingering questions about it. One thing I did not address in that thread, the "-" denotes the favorite, the "+" is next to the underdog.
One Last Note...
    We are doing what we can to make this forum a safer place to bet for everyone. These are not set-in-stone rules, merely guidelines that if followed, will prevent any misunderstandings about bet confirmation. Overall, we think we are doing a pretty good job, but if you have any questions, please post or PM. We welcome your input and know that we are not perfect (despite how we may act. Happy (and safe) betting!
