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:

Although your credit will add up, the bookies bit is seperate so it will show who has won the most in the bookies

I don't actually think this is a good tactic anyway, some lucky so and so is bound to double their money in 1 bet.

Sounds a lot of fun, nice time to try it out through the world cup. Had a similar thing at work once, everyone had a set amount to bet for the group games, then had an extra £100 added for the knock outs (which meant if you lost the lot during the first fortnight, you still could have a pop later on). Well done Nick :emoji_ok_hand:

 

[Nick]

Doesn't look as if any money has been added for new threads either, looking into that too.

It's all about the likes at the minute it seem!

I’ve just managed to place money on 2-0 England on the test event after the 2nd goal :vamp:

 

[Covstu]

When it's a real event then bets will stop at kickoff time so you cant place any Am just testing.

they might score a 3rd yet

It’s made it so I can’t see alerts on mobile without going through to the main alerts page. Any ideas?

For the money or the bets?

.......well, I would have put a on that if it was an option

Just for normal alerts like the one I got for you replying to this post. I had a red mark over my username but I had to click on that, bring up the alerts page then click on the x quoted your post.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

I love this idea. Definitely will be doing even less work in the office now though...

You could hypothetically add trigger points. I.e. When Grendel says something negative about Biamou etc. -£1!

Ah dont think thats part of it but I can have a look

 

[Nick]

Ah no, I clicked push thinking it would send a message when I settled the bets. Think it may have just returned the stakes

Can somebody chuck a bet on this?

WTF!? You’ve lost my winnings!!

What does 'pushed' mean in betting circles?

 

[CovInEssex]

What does 'pushed' mean in betting circles?

You don't win, but you do get your bet returned.

 

[Nick]

Yeah I've just googled it, it means a "tie" or a "no bet"

 

[King of the Lesbians]

You don't win, but you do get your bet returned.

And how does that work!

 

[CovInEssex]

And how does that work!

Say you bet on a game and it get's postponed, you get your stake back only.

 

[Sick Boy]

So it's not actual money?

 

[King of the Lesbians]

And I have to blow Nick to get credit?

 

[Nick]

No it's just a bit of fun!

 

[hill83]

Didn't get my winnings :emoji_angry:

 

[italiahorse]

What odds for Land Rover Stadium ?

 

[Modcons86]

Can you post outrights as well .. i.e world cup winner? or would that complicate things with the duration of the bet? Also guessing in custom bets the 'bookies' keep lost bet stakes (so if i set up harry Kane 1st scorer bet, someone placed it and it lost i kept their stake) if any of this makes any sense haha.

Sportsbook is betting against the bookies (the house). This is where Nick will set up the important bets (Coventry games win/lose/draw) and probably England WC games.

The Exchange is where members can bet against other members on anything. (You can create your own title - I would suggest starting it with "I bet that abc happens" so people don't get confused.

Yeah, at the start I could get all of the odds and put each team to win the world cup for people to bet on.

Then bets would lock before the first game and I'd settle them after the final.

Nice one, didnt even notice the exchange section. Wouldnt complicate it by setting my own bets up, was just curious of the process.

 

[shmmeee]

Sort out that back dated cash Nick, daddy needs a new pair of virtual shoes.

The exchange is more when people are bickering, they can put a bet on
