That's exactly how I feel! Although I love watching people in Atlantic City pump quarters into those machines while I walk around in a new outfit.Originally Posted by my little pony

Is there any interest in doing point spreads? CoP is perfect for that.
For example, the odds are pretty good that Belbin and Agosto will win U.S. Nationals, so there's no particular reason to bet on that. But by how many points? I don't gamble so I'm a little hazy about how these things are worded, but shouldn't it be something like B/A +12 if you think they'll win by at least 12 points?
I'm making this up as I go along, but I always figured gamblers would love CoP because it would make skating a gambler friendly sport. And point spreads, unlike hair styles, are quantifiable.

does anybody know...
What happened to my vbookies? They used to work, but now I have errors on each of the vbookie links and cannot see the polls.
Thanks,
Kim

Some threads you can only bet on once. Some might have already closed, and that is why you can't bet? Originally Posted by levineismine

If you were looking to bet one or more of the GP 'overall season' vBets, I've extended their deadlines to Friday 10/26 ~noonish (MDT time). Originally Posted by levineismine

Hello! No particular rush, but if any admin can figure out why I can't seem to bet anymore... that would be great! Thought I'd give it a bit of time to straighten out, but it's been a couple of weeks, so I know it's not me. Did the vbookie part of my subscription expire? Did you think I'd have inside info for Jr. World's so you prevented me from betting? (Well, I don't... even so, I think a few million vbucks compensation is in order
).

I think we should add an over/under vbet. Like a football spread. IE Like in dance
D&W, V&M score 14 points more then the rest of the field. If you bet under 13 point speard then you would lose. If you bet more then 14 you would win.
Someone can adverage the point spread from the previous season or the current season (or season best scores)and use the point difference to create the over and under. I would be willing to do it.
Yeah I know I waited for the last event to do it.

Hi - Just in case someone other than Sharpie or Prancer try to resolve my issue posted on 3/12 -- it's resolved. Said Admins cleared it up -- my mistake.

Can I ask a quick question here - are we going to have bets on the NHK Cup? It starts next week and I couldnt find betting post - it's all politics and football.
Vainly hoping for Khokhlova/Volobuev

Thanks for the reminder - bets will be up in the next 24 hours. Any other suggestions appreciated.
Edited: NHK bets are now up. Bets for whatever the next GP event is will go up after NHK concludes.Last edited by UMBS Go Blue; 10-16-2010 at 08:10 PM.

Just a reminder that suggestions for new bets are always welcome. For example, peibeck came up with the Golden Globe/Oscar nomination ideas. Feel free to PM me with ideas and even suggested odds.
