Congrats again to JickBoy34 for his win in contest #1.

Today begins a new period of contests. The Syndicate is putting together another nice prize package for the winner of this contest. All accounts have been re-set to 500 and all members are in the running for this one (including JickBoy34), except for Syndicate members.

good luck to all.

Hopefully people notice that this contest is almost two months long and don't shoot their alpaca wad the first week.

Translation: win one bet and coast to victory as everyone else loses their money.

man, i sucked the first time around.

i'm going to rock the alpacas this time....

I might sound like an idiot when I ask, but what exactly is the contest and how do I enter or compete? Sorry for being slow and ignorant, but it is Thursday!

you compete by betting your alpacas on the vbookie events listen in the forum. the one with the most alpacas at the end of the contest wins. there is no money involved, so it doesn't hurt to bet.

Either that or pick for me.

Or go post more.

yes indeed

Do you manually update the winners for each bet?

you manually update the sportsbook event (ie game winner) yes. But the alpacas are updated automatically from the event.

I demand any prize pack include either a pancake milk shake recipe from taymelo or a coupon to the greatest breakfast eatery on the face of the earth.

Wow you really like pancakes man. I have nothing worthwhile to say, just rather amazed at your pancake love.

Have you ever been to the Pantry in Sterling Heights? That place is off the charts good for breakfast. I don't get pancakes there, but I bet they are hot. The omlettes are amazing though.

Yeah the Pantry is pretty sweet, good waffles.

Side Note: Dude my sig is on the first page of Google if you do an image search for pistons pancakes.

This is current except for the few outstanding Super Bowl bets on the books already.

Are most or all of the Pistons games? I didn't see the Cavs game, for example.

We try to get all of the Pistons games for sure, but every once in a while, the ones that fall on the weekend sometimes fall through the cracks.

If you ever want a specific game posted, you can always use the request thread.

Do y'all have to have every friggin angle covered ALL the time? I wasn't aware(awareness...not a strenght of mine) that there was a request thread.


Seriously, good job. Seems like the Sportsbook definately added some time keeping the site up to date.

<-Poorest person

Not entirely true - I'm right with you, Chris.

Funny thing is I had about 800 alpacas 2 weeks ago. A couple of bets later, here I am with the "Will work for food" sign.

I never win. When I bet on the Pistons, they lose. When I bet against them, they win.

Note: We will ship these prizes to the U S A only. [smilie=usa.gif]

Good luck!

Also, tomlinson hasn't been here in a month+ and he's still winning.

You don't know how painful it's going to be if we have to send these prizes to some guy that came here, spammed for his site via PMs, made a few lucky bets and then took off.

We must break him.

WTF Sportsbook Hit List: [smilie=shootingsol: tomlinson

werd.

Zip Goshboots turned me onto this site and I cost the poor guy 500 Alpacas on a bum steer. I feel bad but I've still got 500 to lose. I love the site and the sportsbook is a hoot. Thanks.

I heard GoshBoots will pay a lot of Alpacas for a bum steer.

damnit. i'm tempted to go into the database and sneak myself another 1000 or so alpacas so i can get some more action.

Running out of time...

As for me, I'm pretty much done for this session.

It's hard to believe that in my last 15 wagers I am 0-15.

I had over 1,000 'pacas just a week ago. [smilie=master_emot:

If somebody had been watching my bets and betting the opposite, they'd be running away with this.

Kinda tempted to ask you not to make any more bets, lol.

Check your PMS

I didn't realize there was even a sportsbook competition until a few days ago when you told me I was the last hope against Tomlinson.

Congrats to UberAlles who pulled it out at the end thanks to a huge bet on the Red Wings.

UberAlles #1. I smoked all of you suckas!

Red Wingz 4 Life!

Ok, when does the next one start!?

Way to man up in the clutch.

Matt's the only one that knows how to get us all reset to 500 alpacas.

When he gets off his lazy ass and gets around to it, in other words.

Way to leak that out there.

Matt, so you need some low quality computer hardware? PM me, we'll talk a bit.

I just searched all the admin features and couldn't find it. Matt is the man.

EDIT - I just changed mine to a huge amount, but I can't find where you do it for everyone. Don't worry, I won't bet with that (we won't post contests anyway) and it will reset when Matt fixes it. In the mean time maybe some people will be fooled.

Congrats, UberAlles!
