Title: 14th Trials - Betting
Post by: worldwideweb3 on August 09, 2020, 10:41:31 pm
Place Your Bets! (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdGEWdOPsPrkC_Icsfsa1LCP4MsqOwKf4PECeiIeOUuL3_h5Q/viewform?usp=sf_link)

Pick your favorites, or the actual favorites, or using random.org.  However you want to do it is up to you, but get those bets in!

Rewards will be: 
1st Place will be awarded a Nymph/Mark code
2nd Place will be awarded 10k :electrum.

Possibly more nymph/mark codes to be awarded depending on participation



Use this link (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdGEWdOPsPrkC_Icsfsa1LCP4MsqOwKf4PECeiIeOUuL3_h5Q/viewform?usp=sf_link) to submit bets.
Please answer each question; make sure you spell your user name correctly.
You can send in as many bets as you like, but for only the last will be kept.
The betting is weighted, so betting on an underdog has a greater payout than betting on a favorite. 
- This scaling is determined by the upgrade advantage and is also affected by percent of bets each player receives. 
- In the event of a tie we will "figure out something on the spot (that probably involves chat dice)"
Happy betting!

And because the TrOs know you love it, they are bringing back the betting mini-game as well!  Do your best to guess how the community will bet and try to figure out:
