@NVGator , @oxrageous - if you leave a bet open, can it only be accepted by one other person, or can multiple take the bet?

if only one, there should be an option for multiple. maybe the person placing the bet could set a limit to say 5, or 3, or something like that

Multiple people can accept a bet and wager whatever amount ($0-250) they choose. You can click on an event, then pick the wager in question, and see the members who have accepted and what they wagered.

No, one at a time. If you want to make the same bet with multiple people, you have to make multiple bets.

Ok... so I have been beaten down like a jay26 nole lovin' mofo on my bets.

Let's say that one member thinks climpson will beat 'barn by a ton of points... say 30.
And let's say that I think 'barn will lose but only by 10 points.

How does that get set up between two members?

Do I take auburn and 30?

You can set up a wager between 2 members. In this case, the wager would simply be that Climpson would win by more than 30 points. You'd obviously take the under 30 points side.

Does that answer your question?

I thought that's what I did ...but I caught fecal matter on how it was set up.
So I deleted it and re-created it.
Here's the link (how does this look to you?):

Looks good to me. Basically you are wagering that Clemson would win by 21 or less points and the t-gator is laying 21 points on Clemson so they have to win by 22 or more points.

Bingo... muchas gracias NV

Gracias.

My only other suggestion, and it's just that, is to add a 1/2 point as part of that wager. It would take out the tie. In your wager, if it was set at 21 1/2 points, if Clemson won by 21, you would get the extra 1/2 point allowing you to win.

Is there a way to cancel a bet that has been placed on a game?

I just answered in the other thread. Unfortunately you can't change or remove a wager.

I think you are talking about me. I asked if you were giving T Clemson and 21 points because that's how the bet was written up. I'll will stay out of your endeavors from now on.

Actually I think it was Threat and Ox, possibly NV... but I certainly deserved it

Thanks a lot. I came in and confirmed you were correct.

 

[Gatordiddy]

...like I said, I was the one who screwed it up.
I think this was before you helped.

For the record - NV, you did help.

Let's just blame it on ox

betting is a sin

Crap! That's what I was about to ask. Made a mistake and wanted to cancel it. Oh well, I guess I hope AA throws only to Goolsby and Callaway on Saturday vs Toothless as I bet on both having 100 yard receiving games.

I fixed it for you but only because I like you.

The only way to fix is to completely delete the outcome and repost it. Because you were the only one who had that wager, that wasn't a problem but if others had wagers, no bueño.

Thanks NV!
I intended to just bet on Callaway - bet, then realized I had bet on Goolsby by mistake. Then bet on Callaway with the intent to cancel the Goolsby bet, then realized I couldn't.
I'll place my Callaway bet again once I know for sure he's healthy and going to play.
