Some of the FRP players want to place bets but don't have the technical implementation on-site to support this action.

Which is why I offer to be a bet holder.


First FRP bet is:

Dogmeat vs. ColtonGrondy -- who will get to level 75 first?

=======================================================

I edited my neat post since Dogmeat and coltongrondy already designed an odds-based, multi-round bet system.

How the bet thing works:

You need to read Dogmeat's post on page 2. He explains there how the odds-based system works and will be keeping all bet rounds updated.

I'd like to mention beforehand that you don't need to pay attention to the odds if you're not particularly interested by this.

What you NEED to do is read Dogmeat's post where he says whether the bet is still open for the one you want to bet on.

So keep an eye on this thread, it will be updated often.

These being said, you need to send me the points you want to bet, the compet*tor's name (that you place your bet upon) and my bet holder honorary of 10 points.

( So if you want to bet 777 points on coltongrondy and that sum is allowed, you need to send me 787 points and specify 'coltongrondy'. )

New bets placed:

18/01/2009 - Kenneth bet 200 points on Dogmeat
18/01/2009 - King Kod bet 200 points on ColtonGrondy

=== 18/01/2009 - Total bet pot - 400 points ===

Lets hope I win this bet xD

we all know that wont happen

and you're an admin...

here's the formula for the odds, if anyone'ss interested:

Step 1:
 X/Y               X=A-B
------             Y=(b-a)/c
   Z                Z=(Q-A)/100000

A=one player's experience(in this case, coltongrondy)
B=the other player's experience(in this case, Dogmeat)
a=player A's experience gained during the compet*tion so far
b=player B's experience gained during the compet*tion so far
c=length (in days) of the compet*tion so far
Q=total experience needed to reach the goal (in this case, 4,000,000)

(since a and b have not been recorded since the beginning, we will have to subst*tute our monthly growths for them and c with 30 for this compet*tion)

Step 2:
If X is negative, multiply the answer by -1/3
If Y is negative, multiply the answer by -3.
If they are both negative, it doesn't matter.
If Z is negative, somebody has already won.

Step 3:
Finally, divide 1 by your answer to get player B's odds(round to nearest tenth), player A's will always be 1.
Multiply both by the smallest number possible that will make player B's odds a whole number.

Is this even intelligible?

Example:
(3,260,774-3,066,655)/((1294833-376700)/30)
---------------------------------------------------------------
           (4000000-3260774)/100000

simplified is:

194119/30604.43333
-----------------------------
          7.39226

which equals: .8580378962
1/.8580378962=1.16544969 rounded equals 1.2

1.2:1, which equals 6:5, in favor of Dogmeat
