The Colosseum - Betting

Thirty-two gladiators have come from the four corners of the forum to fight in The Colosseum for your entertainment.  Here you may bet on the victors, and the spectator or gladiator with the most correct picks in the bracket will earn a reward code for 10,000 .

Rules:
- This betting is 100% free, and anyone with a forum account can join, even if you are not participating in this PvP Event
- If you are participating in this PvP Event, you must pick yourself as the winner of all of your matchups and the eventual Champion!
- Rules for The Colosseum (for those who want to make educated guesses rather than picking gladiator names arbitrarily ) can be found here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,30183.0.html).

How to Fill Out a Bracket:
- << Click here >> (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgB8fZX7y8kydGw4RlhIS3lMdWpLTWJnQldoX3RGWkE#gid=57).
- Choose one of the tabs on the far right whose name starts with "Empty".
- Follow the instructions at the bottom of that tab.
- If you've already submitted you can find your submission in one of the locked tabs; there's no need to do so again.
- As players complete brackets the Event Organizers will lock their tabs.  If you wish to expedite this feel free to PM kevkev60614 and/or The Mormegil or find us in chat.
- You may want to take a screenshot or find some other way to record your bets in order to verify that nothing was changed between the time you completed your bracket and the time it was locked.
- You will have 24 hours after the end of betting to verify that the data in your locked tab is as you submitted it.  After that time no edits will be made.
- If you have any questions at all, post in this thread or PM kevkev60614 and/or The Mormegil.

Betting has ended

You now have 24 hours to verify that the data in your locked tab is as you submitted it.  Errors have been found both in old form submissions converted by Organizers and in new form submissions that were accidentally overwritten by another player.  USE THIS TIME TO CHECK!  After the deadline no edits will be made.

If something is different from your original submission, please PM kevkev60614 and The Mormegil.

Can't access brackets... not redirecting properly...

[ralouf]

and fight starts after betting ends I guess ?
When we bet the first number we put is the score for the first player ? (pretty trivial question but it is just to make sure)

which arenas in which round? would be really important, for deckbuilding and for betting.

I'm a google docs noob. How do I get the 'make a copy' option under file to work?

Yeah, but your the more skilled player, so I guess this make us evenish

We were originally going to reveal all Arenas beforehand, but ultimately decided against it. We prefer if in your betting you evaluate the general power of each gladiator, and adaptability to Arenas is one of the most important factors. The one thing that you can be sure of is that there is an almost equal number of matches in all Arenas, so the chance of getting to fight into one Arena or another are pretty much equal.

thanks for this clarification, its harder to bet then,for example for my own match, i think envoirement will play a great role here. still: ill never bet against me

[Ryli]

ill never bet against me

I'll never bet against you either.

Oh wait...

[Zaealix]

Wait a sec, doesn't this mean we have to make a Google account in order to bet properly? Or could I just sorta copy/paste the format in here?

[Shantu]

You can ask others with a Google account to copy it and make the copy accessible for you. Then you can fill out the brackets.
