Disqualified obviously.

Game Rules:

This is for who you think will win between Canada @ Russia, on Wednesday, February 24th


You can bet as much as you want. If the team you picked wins the game, you are guaranteed a profit. The amount of that profit depends on how much fg is placed on each team.

The amount placed on each team will create the odds for the game

Example:

If there is a total of 1500fg placed on Philadelphia, and 1000fg placed on New Jersey than the odds will be 1.5:1 with Philadelphia being the favorite.

This means that you will receive 1.5:1 odds for the team that you bet on.

If you bet 100 on Philadelphia, you would win a total of 166fg. 66fg profit plus your original 100.

If you bet 100 on New Jersey, you would win a total of 250fg. 150fg profit plus your original 100.



Sending Rules:

Send your fg and pick in advance to me.

You MUST place the team that you picked in the comment field. I can not stress this enough. I do not care who your favorite team is, or who you have in your sig/ava

This is to avoid any controversy. I clean out my pm box around a half dozen times per day. I can not keep your pick, so this will show record of it.

DO NOT MAKE YOUR COMMENT MORE COMPLICATED THAN IT NEEDS TO BE

All I need to know is your pick. Be clear. None of this asterisk crap.


Also, do not send decimal amounts, or any donations towards the pot


Example:

http://i41.tinypic.com/2vao2l4.jpg

I am not hunting you down for your pick or anything else. I know the image shows Cratic (stole his rules), but send to me.




There is no refunds once fg is received.


If you are on ANY welchers list, you are not allowed to take part in this game. Paid back or not.

Do not post your pick, or how much you sent in this thread or anywhere else.




Thread Rules:

Do not spam this thread. I pay for all of these topics myself. Do not make me pay for more than I have to.

Feel free to bump the thread at reasonable times, and to post that you sent fg into the pot.

Any unnecessary spam however can and will result in a disqualification.


Example:

If you post in this thread asking for picks when the game started, this will be spam.

I'm usually very good when it comes to posting the picks, so if they're not up, I'm probably afk. You spamming will not change that.



Anybody breaking any of the aforementioned rules will be disqualified from the game and may lose privileges for playing in future games.

If you already sent fg and broke any of these rules, your fg will be a donation to me. Thanks in advance.

THE DEADLINE FOR ENTRANTS IS AT 7:30 PM EASTERN ON WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH SHARP


How am I disqualified?

1. I'm not on any welchers list.
2. I sent in advanced and picked in advance.
3. I placed my team in comment field.
4. I sent 500 even, no decimal amounts.

It is why this is called a "Blind Pot".

well it's 500 fg and you have 11,237.47. I don't think my 500 is going to influence the odds?

Everyone expects people to bid on team canada, so odds are it's going to be heavily in favor of team canada.

can't you just give me a break or at least just give me my fg back?

edit: thanks man.
