Spring Game Attendance vBet

Here is how it works.

1. Post your guess in this thread, then place a bet on the event.

2. All bets should be in the amount of $50.

3. This ain't the Price is Right, so your guess may not be within 50 of a previous bet. If it is I will make that person the winner if the actual total is within 50 of their wager - and I will keep your money.

For example. Say Grad21 guesses 64,500. BuckeyeNation27 (I am only using him as an example because the stupid SOB can't follow instructions) guesses 64,510 - only 10 more than Grad21. If the "official" attendance is 64,540 Grad21 wins because he effectively 'reserved' the range from 64,450 to 64,550 when he placed his wager. However, if the attendance is 64,555 Nation27 would get the win. (If this makes any sense let me know and I will try to make it even more convulted.)

4. The official attendance for this event will be what is reported in the Columbus Dispatch.

5. Once the official attendance it determined I will declare everyone a loser on the original bet (we ARE betting pretend money on how many folks will show up to watch a practice game on an otherwise perfectly useful Spring day - so delcaring everyone a loser isn't much of a stretch)

6. I will then set up a follow up bet paying odds based on the total wagered (unfotunately this is the only way we can do pari-mutuel betting using this software). Only the winner will be invited to bet on that event.

7. If you don't have $50, bet incorrectly before reading this post, or do something else stupid please don't bother to PM me. I'm just the vBooky - I didn't take you to raise.

It makes sense, but I think you numbers in the example are screwed up.

Not that it really matters to my 25-dollar-pathetically-broke-sorry-ass-excuse-for-a-vBetter. Damn that Gwaltney! Why didn't he just pick USC!!!
