Not sure I really like the idea of more and more pointless crap being posted it you up the limits...
There is a 100 word per post max, so anything after that, you do not get credit for.

less payout if you pick someone to finish either first/second/or third then if you pick the actaul winner? That's an excellent idea. I'm not a bookie and have no idea what the options are for setting up bets. Maybe hos could chime in here?

In this very thread 22 agreed with me and a mod called my idea "excellent" ... I starting to feel all warm and fuzzy inside, replacing my cold, dead, heart of stone.
AND its Friday AND I get to go home in 2.5 hours! things are looking up!

There is no option like that, just straight odds. So at this point, that would be pretty tough.

Oh, I also think the statistics for gambling should be expanded upon... Namely, the Top XX of winners, losers, amount of credits, number of bets, etc. Top 5 or 10 doesn't show very much and I'd like to see where I am compared to the top.

I don’t care… I want Jack Trice stadium to be the loudest in the Big 12 and I think that creates homefield advantage.... I want to stress to everyone…I want this place to be juiced up. They bought 36,000 season tickets so there is a passion there…don’t hide it… let it out. I want there to be a passion in the stadium."

Harriet Michaels: Do you actually like haggis?
Charlie Mackenzie: No, I think it's repellent in every way. In fact, I think most Scottish cuisine is based on a dare.

Thanks for all the great feedback everybody! I went ahead and started a lottery event which you can find information about on the front-page. I'm going to close this thread just so I can put up a new one in a couple days soliciting feedback on the lottery event and credits in general after I get some other features added.
Thanks!
Jeremy
