Wait wait wait. Did I get this right?

Instead of winner getting their POE's back doubled, they only get their POE's back, plus the amount everyone else betted?

In that case, I'l bet one POE that tomorrows game will be Adventure game.

i think winner should get their own poe doubled

chosen is right this is totally unfair, then someone who bet 500 wins the same prize as someone who bet 1

I would gladly join your little conversation but:

I really don't care if I win or lose, it's just for a laugh, meaning nothing when the sun goes down. Feel free to join in, after all, there's nothing to lose (or win). I'm only gonna ask you to keep this topic clear of any unrelated posts Thanks.
I simply draw back from this topic, I wouldn't want be the reason MM gets somekind of a vinegar intox.

BTW, MM may have all the PoE, maybe that will lighten him up a bit.

Enjoy yourselves.

Ok guys let's try this...you decide rules together (here) and when you will have done we could start. (I can clean the topic or you can create a new one)

While it is true that it is totally pointless to lose more due to a higher bet, it could also be argued that it is unfair to the members who do not participate in the betting. If the PoEs were doubled for the winner there would just be an insane amount of inflation/pure monetary generation from the betting board. Since we aren't really providing or creating anything here it doesn't make sense for this to be a place to make money. It does however make sense for it to be a place to shuffle money around. As such, only one rule makes sense. A fixed bet from 10-100 PoEs. The winner should be the one who decides the value of the next bet (with it defaulting to Tomekk if the winner does not post). Above David said he wanted to limit the bets to one per week. We also need to settle which date we will be betting on. The 10th was a Saturday so...every thursday? Jk... saturday should be fine.

Theoretically, if there was a whole week of betting, people could raise the stakes if they wanted to

By the way, I will match whatever stake for the 17th for an adventure game.
