Hmm... let me talk to them about it. I think I can get Anderson on account of their sporting immigration policy.

ok. Anderson might be back home right now.

Though a few players are heading to the US or Canada soon

oh that's mean

Do you need me to use my magic?

 

[manangatang]

I tried one for the lols. It tastes a lot sweeter than expected. Has a pastry like feel about it.

Then again, if I wanted a chocolate explosion, I'd go for a Belgan Lava Cake.


Because Aardman Studios are doing a presentation here in Gumbania, and are willing to get an autograph of a Brittish tennis player.

You can also get a clay figure of any Aardman studio character of your choice.

Could I have Pidsley from Shaun The Sheep? Pidsley is best.

 

[JackNah_8]

Do you need me to use my magic?

Yes! lol Let's see what happens

 

[manangatang]

Yes! lol Let's see what happens

Alrighty then, I will set to preparing my spell.

 

[JackNah_8]

Perfect. Lol

QROWNBET ANNOUNCEMENT​

Hi guys. It's Qrownbet's charismatic co-founder and all-round good guy kdavva74 here. I'm here to announce that we will in fact be doing player markets for each game in the Sweet FA season. However, because I know 80% of markets won't get used, I'm not going to sit here and write out odds for every player and every market because ultimately it would be a waste of time. Therefore, how it will work is that you simply tag myself and/or The Half Back in your thread with a market that you want to place money on. Then, we will provide the odds, you confirm, and your bet is on.

We're open to pretty much any markets. Most disposals? Sure. Over a certain number of disposals? We gotcha. Having more frees against than frees for? 100%.

Qrownbet is already the Sweet FA's biggest betting agency, with thousands of dollars in revenue already. And we're committed to giving you more opportunities to lose your money. So bet on a player market today!

Please note that player markets can only be requested after your team has submitted their team sheet. Simmers cannot place bets.

Can you let the simmers place bets on the games that they aren’t simming? As the leagues most experienced and best previous simmer I don’t believe they should be discounted even more for a thankless job as it is.

They already took a bet of mine for a result they knew, and knew i would lose. So i think its safe to assume they will

Was that on the Rookies match? Coz I did all of those markets off probability only.

I don't know who sims which games, and it was a massive issue in the last big betting attempt. I'm being cautious.

I didnt know it had already been simmed and you had done your commentary at the time.

So i just assumed it was a rigged bet

It’s actually really easy. Every post has the time that it was made, just check with Cloud_ that any posts made by simmers isn’t the game they are simming and was made before the results for said game were posted in the inbox.

I'm pretty sure the simmer and poster of the game is different? Cloud_ can you clarify?

Yeah you haven’t understood me.
1. The simmer posts their bet on your thread and it leaves the time they posted it there.
2. You clarify with Cloud_ who is in the simmers inbox that they didn’t place their bet after the results for the other games have been posted in the inbox. Therefore they can’t cheat as they haven’t seen the results.

Seems like a long process but if a simmer wants to go through this then by all means feel free.

 

[sante]

Qrownbet is fake yeah?

It’s literally 4 posts in total.

Simmer places bet.
You accept.

You to cloud: “Hey were the games posted in the inbox before ‘insert bet time’”

Cloud: Yes or no.

Fair enough then.

Cheers for the heads up. They have informed me that they will be in touch with their US contacts, and will let you know of any of your choices will be available.

Qrownbet is fake yeah?

Could I have Pidsley from Shaun The Sheep? Pidsley is best.

Interesting choice! Now... Series 1 or Series 2 Pidsley?

We're in a spot to reject anyone we feel like. In case you haven't noticed, we have over the minimum number of players and we are quite happy with our players' contribution.

So quit projecting your own feelings of inadequacy, mate.

Oh really? In that case...

Hey PhenomenalV1 and mike123 , how do you feel like joining the Gumbies? It seems like the Dragons have an excess of talent, and we do need all the help we can get.

 

[sante]

Yes.

Then who cares about the integrity of it?

It would still suck if someone deliberately went out of their way to undermine it. It would definitely take the wind out of my sails and make it less enjoyable for me.
