Is it an alt? or just a friend?

Dang, I'm too late for the second round of betting. As far as movie based profit bets, there is also Snakes on a Plane coming out the 18th. By the way, does anyone here think the movie is going to bomb?

American football sounds good.

Heres a though for you all:

Gambling is/was a sin, but then again, so was Homosexuality, but look at the church now!

In modern religious society, is gambling still wrong?

Not if you have the right permits, or if you are an American Indian. =P

Of course, gambling is a fun thing to do, and I think what people do with their money is their own problem.

Hmmm, a side bet about Snakes on a Plane. 50 million in the box office? That's quite a large number.

Tell you what, I'll make a bet with you that the movie grosses less than $40 million. You win if it grosses more. 20 points sound good to you?

Dejanus you do get 50 points for bringing in a new member however the bet takes place tommorow, not today. I gave a one day grace period in order to have people join in the bet. Sorry for the confusion.

Umm dude, DSM said that the betting will take place on the 8th. Today's the seventh.

He's still waiting for more takers, so I don't think this one will even count, never mind win it for you. Besides, he said most people to join, not first person to join.

Comepletely if the other person agreed to put it on the line to begin with.

Using other people's money without their permission though? That would be stealing, and that I am not agreeing with.

Chao Guy if your not going to bet and post random shit about gambling please go post somewhere else and whoever thinks homosexuality is a sin and who is racist is not welcome here.

Also new rule if you add a user under your name and that user just comes and never returns you lose all your points but 1 and if it is found to be an alt you are kicked out of here no exceptions.

And the snakes on the plane will be a bet when the movie is close to coming out it comes out August 18 so there is still a long way to go.

Dsmking: your in charge of your side bet pm me with who to award points too when the bet is over.

This club is about gambling, so I was posting things that may intrest, not "random shit!!1!"

I never said it was a sin, do your religious studies (or whatever it's called in America). And how am I rasist?

I have as much right to post as does the next person.
To stop this becoming full of flam posts.....

I would (if I had money) bet £30 (don't know exchange rate) that Snakes on a Plane; despite what us Newgrounders think, will make it big at the box office. I know £30 is a little naff, but I play it safe when gambling.
Can I still join.

Yes you may still join just try not to say anything that will cause problems.

We don't use actual money here since that will be illegal. We use points. You start out with 100 points and you gamble with those.

Chao Guy

in your post you said that gambling was a sin and so is homosexuality I knew what you where saying but since the topic was mentioned I decided it was a grand time to tell everyone, everyone here is accepted I was not calling you a racist...

Anyways the 2 bets where about when would a news bulletin take place and which day had the most submissions submitted.

Both those days involved today and yesterday so you can't bet on them for obvious reasons. Dsmking has a side bet going on to bring in as many people as possible this bet starts tommorow ask him if you want to be in and think you can win.

Just remember if you bring in a guy who doesn't stay or is an alt that is consider cheating and a punishement will follow.

hope we did not get off on the wrong foot.

Nice loophole, but you just got yourself out of winning a bet. I wonder why? Oh well. It's good to know that we have an honest club leader.

Woohoo! I still have a chance!

Cource not! ^_^

I don't think I'll be doing the bringing in new guys bet, since the only was I could would be cheating....

I bet 30 points (2x or nothing) that despite the fact everyone is saying the'll fix global warming, that the'll be another flood within the year(some where in the world).
