guys these are the rules we planned to start with last week i thought they where ok but im putting them out there again for more imput. I don't want this to be overrun with pointless over bearing rules its just a little bit of fun. I'm hoping this will be self regulating but myself and the Boss will be in charge for now.
Rules
1. For football bets use Irish, English, Scottish leagues and international matches.Golf Snooker and Rugby for big tournaments also aloud.
2. Use Oddschecker.com to get the odds
3. Starting kitty 20 points
4. Minimum bet 0.5 points, Max no restrictions as long as you have that amount in the
kitty. when your kitty reaches 0 you are out.
5. Bets can be posted up to 1/2 hour before kick off.
6. I was hoping to have 1 post that you would update but i dont think we can do that so just quote your own post with your results.
7. Top of the post should show your present and previous kitty amounts
8. Bets posted like this :
game : result : odds : where did the odds come from : amount staked : result :
profit/loss
Ie
Man utd V Chelsea : Utd win : 2/1 : paddy powers : 2 points : Win : +3
9. it will have to work on the honour system so any one found cheating will be kicked out straight away.
10. No talking about bets or anything else in this League thread please use the betting league ? one instead
Now the main questions that came up where do you want to open up the betting to all sports or keep it to the few mentioned.
do you want a maximum number of bets per week or leave it open to the punter to decide ( with in reason )
do you want some one to get deducted points if they dont bet in a week or to have them kicked out for not betting for 2 or 3 weeks running ( with out letting me know they are on hols or something )
For people that want to join later in the year how do ye want to run that ?
i was thinking -1 point per week they miss so if they want to join in 8 weeks time they would start on 12 points.
Anything else you can think of now is the time to post it, please leave a post even it its just to say you think the rules are fine we need to get everyone agreed and get this up and running this week.
we will close the rules on thursday morning then open the betting thread.
