Note: The "Other Thread" means the "Arena Battles" thread.
Note: I have the right to change this at any moment. However, this will only affect new bets made after the announcement.

I've decided to move betting over here.
Here all! Bring your warriors from the other thread and bet on battles, both among yourselves and others.

Hmm? Yeah, that's right. I don't think I missed anyth... oh, here:
Da Rules:
 - Each player may have up to 5 bets in progress, both warrior's arena ("other thread" fights) and the special house fights.
 - Maximum 5 pts per bet.
 - Winners get average points from the losers, weighted by bet. A bet winner who bet a steel item gets 4 times more equipment than one who bet a copper item.
 - If there are no bets on the other side, all winning betters get a piece of leather/wood (0.5 points). All losing betters vs. the house lose their equipment and get a piece of leather in return.
 - House fights conditions are set in stone unless all the betters for that fight agree (i.e. number of fire imps in a battle)

I will be the only host until others apply.

All hosts must follow these rules in addition to the ones above:
 - All mods must be said in advance (other than language mods and tilesets)
 - All battles must have a beginning, end, and (partial) log screenshot.


Equipment is weighed on the system from the other thread:

Current bet:
HELL'S MARCH
...
Will the elves survive the volleys of arrows from the humans? One may guess...
(30 Elves have wooden: breastplate, helm, sword/spear [competent]) (10 Humans have copper: breastplate, helm, mail shirt, bow [professional]. Iron arrows x20.)
{The humans will be on an elevated platform. If you want to do the fight before I come to it just tell me and I'll send the scheme to you.}

[TolyK]

Current bettors:
HELL'S MARCH:
Supercharazard: 3 points on humans.
Kilakan: 1 point on elves
kytuzian(?): 3 points on elves
*****
Supercharazard: +2
NotPete: -2

No one has a streak.

[TolyK]

Yes, I have 10 points, I'm betting two of those on the trolls.

noted.

[NotPete]

do they have any armor? or are they joining our increasingly nudist gladiators?

[rarborman]

Dont judge...historicly all the female gladiators were always topless, and in several of the lighter armored gladiator castes wearing a tunic instead of being bear chested was "effeminate"...

trolls are in leather, humans in iron.

ok, thanks for the info. uh... how do you know this.
(Don't worry. I'm attempting to conduct the battle right now)
