SBT Virtual Bookies (12 Viewers)

[Nick]

I have found an alternative to the prediction league, a virtual bookies.

I can give every member 500 of the currency (not real, just pretend currency linked to profiles).

Then for each match we can work it like a bookies so we can have result, half time and full time results with odds so people can bet on our games like they would in the bookies.

The other thing is that people can make their own bets, for example if I say biamou will get a hat trick I can then create a custom bet where people can bet me on it (so I'd be the bookie).

Obviously it's just for a bit of fun and may need a bit of maintaining for the odds etc but I think it would be quite fun.

Anybody got any thoughts?

Sounds good! Just have to make sure you can earn currency back should you go bankrupt (Making a post for the first time each day?)

Yeah, looking at ways you can build currency back up again (posts, likes etc) so it will encourage people to post and be active to get money to gamble

I have just added the "currency" now which will show in the top right on the desktop version.

Yep it looks like it will be there on mobile in the browser but it wont be on tapatalk to be able to place the bets etc.

 

[CovInEssex]

Yeah I see it, looks like it's 3 credits for a post? Hopefully this doesn't encourage spam

 

[lifeskyblue]

Oh right thanks. I prob won’t be able to join the party as I use Tapatalk.

It doesnt seem to be giving me any money for a post

Think it's £3 for a like actually. Which is better than per post! Encourages quality content.

I had 3 credits and that’s disappeared for £0 (when did you have access to my bank account!?)

Ha I cleared the cache, sorry!

 

[Nick]

It's adding £3 for likes but it should be £1 for a post but it isnt being added

 

[edgy]

Will fuck for likes.

 

[CovInEssex]

I'm winning, let's close it up lads. Game's over.

Otis will be the 3rd richest on the planet by August!

 

[Nick]

Is £3 too high for a like do we think? Might make it £1 for a like and 50p for a post?

 

[Otis]

What the hell is going on?

Confusing the hell out of me.

It said I had £6. Two mins later said I had zero pounds and then two mins after that £3.

What???

Will this be back dated?

Nah I'd say it's about right, if you're gonna change it - keep it to a 3:1 ratio

Your SBT tax payment has been received. Thank you.

 

[Nick]

Afraid not, dont think it can go back through but having a look.

 

[Nick]

You joke, but I can add tax and interest

 

[hill83]

I don't even really know what's going on but I want all of the virtual money please thanks.

 

[Otis]

I have very little of that.

I dont think anybody will be scrambling for their SBT password in 10 years time to buy a house Just a little bit of fun / competition.

Plus so often people are saying "I will bet". Now people can just make a bet and play with pretend money!

 

[CovInEssex]

Just to add to that, we can all place wages on all manner of things. All sports, political, stock market, movies etc

Yeah, 1 sec I will add permissions to add wagers under "Betting Exchange"

 

[Nick]

This is a top idea nick! Can you got into debt and owe likes out!

 

[Astute]

So if you don't bet you won't lose money. All you have to do is keep posting frequently and you will win the title of best bookie basher without having a bet :smuggrin:

I will add a new section for people selling sexual favours to pay back their debts.

I haven't enabled any sort of debts, so they need to just post or be liked to money!
