Dr Brain> Pretty much everything you said was wrong. Except where you called me a lazy jerk with no time. That was true.

5:Ceiu> Wow. My colon decided that was a good time to evacuate itself.

Why would people do that? The winning team would just give to jackpot right before they win.

and then what if the losing team touched flags and turned it around?

because if 1 player bet 100k on the winning team of 10 players, they would only get 10k back

Ok, then why bet at all? There's nothing stopping you from giving $90k to your teammates as things currently are.

So.. the 'best case scenario' is receiving all of your money back on a bet?

Yeah, I'm going to do that often.

Math time.

 

19+you playing in the arena, two 10 player teams.

 

Best case scenario, everyone contributes exactly $100, and the winning team gets $200 in return.

 

But if you bet $500 and everyone else bets $100, then you get $240. So you've spent 500% of everyone else, and gotten a 140% of the reward. Alternatively, if you bet $0, you get $190 in return. Why bet more? Why bet at all?

 

So everyone has an incentive to bet less than everyone else. Only time you get decent odds are when you have 0 team mates. Sounds more like socialism than gambling.

You probably haven't realized it yet in spite of multiple people saying it but you're making a very hilariously wrong assumption with your idea.

the only notable person that responded was dr brain, and he didnt account for the losing team money

Why would the losing team bet at all? Actually, why would anyone bet at all? It's easier just to let the other team or your own team bet so that you make more money. No one would give their own money to the jackpot when they can just leech off others. What's gonna happen is that no one at all is gonna bet, neither the winning nor the losing team. Edited by omni
