Oh no...I was just getting into snail racing. It's all gone. All of it. But I quite like the newness, if I'm honest, it's so much...cooler.

I'd + you all for being understanding but I can't anymore :(

They might as well just change it to a general sports forum, since the betting part will most likely be gone soon. It's a sad happening, but it's for the best (since the rupie system was becoming corrupted).

Yes, I suspect that Sports will take over here now.

AngryPaul will be upset - he did a lovely touching end to his betting shop only for the post to disappear!

it could become a sports and gaming section, as we can stil bet and stuff, just not with any rupies or meaning

I'll never get my custom avatar now. :(

:nana: ah well. Can you donate reputation points somehow? I doubt it. Ive + you all (mostly to see how the "reputation" system works) We can bet using honour, or pride, or something equally as meaningless (actually did the immaginairy forum curreny have any meaning?).

edit: wha? theres a limit on how much reputation you can give out in 24 hrs!

At least now it'll actually contain some threads on sport, rather than being spammed up by all these "original" betting threads started by n00bs after quick rupies.

but... no more snail races :nana:

also, how are people going to get custom titles? and where does it say how much reputation you have?

Shave

reputation is the bar on the left. everyone is currently on the same level. the better reputation the more priveledges you get such as custom titles and avatars

I am said to see the Bets part of this forum die. I think that they should change the name to The Sports section.

Thanks to all of you who have donated me rupies in the past for bets.

Maybe instead of gambling with rupies, we should use our imaginations a little? For a particular gambling thread, you get people to PM you for 'chips' and the thread owner issues that person with ... say... 200 chips, and they can use those chips to gamble within that thread. You cant really do anything with the chips, but uh...

k, the idea sucked. But to be honest, the bets section was always an abuse to the rupie system anyway. Reputations will definately seperate the good posters from the bad.

Yeah the forum should be renamed to Sports & Quizzes
I have been asked to carry on with the quiz in Shane's thread. There wouldn't be a prize though. Just pride :D

cool, wont make up for losing the betting shop, the stock market etc, but would still be good ;)

I will PM someone to see if we can get the name changed.
It would be good to have a forum with just Sports and a few quizzes in there.
