A single roomed building, filled with old men, smoke, and foul language, is situated on the outskirts of OOCland, and is headed with the title "Mr. Alencon's Brilliant Balanced Betting". Inside are many television screens of current world events occurring, with several betting odds flashing on banners next to them. There are a few seats in front of the televisions, but most are either taken, or are covered in a mixture of vomit and mucus. A single man stands behind the main counter, grinning slyly, and rubbing his hands together in a sinister way.
"Any bets to be taken?"
------------------------------------------------------
This is the gambling office for events happening for the in game world. There are a few rules to be noted:
1. Bets can be placed on events within the main game, and also in the Free Roleplaying areas. Bets are not accepted on staff led battles.
2. The maximum amount that can be riding on one, or several bets, at any given time, is 15% of your total gold.
3. Odds for an event will be given on demand either via PM for small events, or posted in this thread for larger events.
4. Bets regarding the outcome of an event (for example, who wins a duel) CAN be made during the event itself, but the odds will be significantly lower and skewed, in comparison to that of the odds given before the fight.
5. You cannot bet on, or against yourself.
6. If I am to believe that anything suspicious is occurring in an event (again, for example a duel) that may have been influenced by a bet, then I withhold the right to make void any bets I so choose to.
7. Voided bets are NOT refunded. A voided bet is one that a staff member cancels, or is a voluntary act by the one who made the bet.
8. Should an event be cancelled, then all bets WILL be refunded. This is the only time money shall be returned.
I also withhold the right to do as I damn well please in regards to bets.. so anything I havent mentioned above is covered by that last blanket statement.
In this thread, I suggest posting a request for odds first, and then follow up with a post stating how much money you wish to place, if any, on that event.
All that aside, have fun, and gamble responsibly!
