Do you like to gamble Started by: SecondaryInfantry on Jun 02, '08 04:14
Step right up folks, Step right up.

Secondary notices the puzzled look on peoples faces


Ok. Now that I have your attention. I've taken time out my busy schedule today to make you all aware of this fantastic competition I have decided to do.

Points to the box of leaflets at his side Are you a gambler?


I'd like you all to feel free to come up and get one of these leaflets, fill it in and mail it to myself if you wish to enter.


If not, your loss.


Any questions you may have about the compeition you can feel free to ask.


Ok, thats it. Thanks and Good luck to you all.

By that, you clearly meant take one of his leaflets right? You strange person...
Report Post Tip
I'm sure thats what he meant.


Plenty of leaflets left, also. Surprisingly not 1 has been taken!


Maybe the mafioso around here aren't gamblers? Or maybe the price is a little steep for some?
Report Post Tip
i would love to enter - aint nothing better than some football,

but i dont have that kind of loot.

The price itself isn't fixed, it can be changed if people feel it's too steep.


If 100,000 sounds like a better option i'd be happy enough to go with that?
Report Post Tip
I don't like your point system. If I were going to put money on predicting a score, I would want to win money immediately if I were right. If I understand your system correctly, I could lose 250,000 even if I predicted certain scores/wins correctly. Sounds like a swindle to me.

Unfortunately, i'm not the local betting office. I'm not giving odds on wins, draws and loses and therefore i'm not paying out for the correct "bet".


The "Competition" - note the word there.. is a points based system in which it will have a 3 tier set of winners, thus, 1st 2nd and 3rd. (The last part obviously depending on entries).


Don't like it? Don't play.

Takes the stick out his ass


Ok, I was a bit abrupt there. But you get my point.
Report Post Tip
I understand how your competition works; there's no need to be so abrasive. I was merely trying to posit a reason why people aren't taking part in your competition. My criticism was constructive and well-intentioned.
Report Post Tip
Yeah, I realised that myself.


Hence why I removed the stick from my ass?
Report Post Tip
I'm really glad we cleared that matter up. I was really worried about whether you and your competition were offended or not.
Report Post Tip
Well I like the idea. But, 250k is a lot of money. :s
Report Post Tip
He has already stated he will slash the price to 100k......



Plus the more money in the pot the more you could potentially win.
Report Post Tip
I will happily enter with 100k.

Checks out a leaflet that Oliverus had thrown away


I'll be sure to get involved when I have the time to think out the results.

Trips over a very shitty stick


That still belongs in your arse Secondary, the fact that Oliverus stated he thought it sounded like a swindle was enough for it remain.
