You can sign-up now or anytime during the contest. Regardless, you will be given $1000 to bet on matches as you see fit. If at any time you fall below $1000, you can bet up to $1000 but beware you can enter the negatives. The user with the most money at the end will be crowned the winner and receive a game of their choice (within reason) courtesy of your host (unless I win, then the prize will go to the runner-up).
Basically this works like sports betting with spreads, if you're familiar with that. Here's an example line: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (-40) vs The Outer Worlds If you bet on BotW, it would have to beat TOW by 40%, meaning it would have to get at least 70% of the vote (70-30 = 40). If you bet on TOW (+40) it needs to score at least 30.01% of the vote (69.99 - 30.01 = 39.98) to keep the difference in percentage, or spread, within 40 points. So someone with $1000 bets $500 on BotW BotW 73.12% TOW 26.88% BotW covers! The bet is doubled and returned for a profit of $500 and the player is now at $1500 ALTERNATE UNIVERSE BotW 63.1% TOW 36.9% TOW covers! All BotW bets are lost and said player is now at $500. Even though BotW won, it didn't win by enough. Back for this contest is 4-match days, meaning parlays are back too! For those unfamiliar, you can earn more by combining your bets, but if one is wrong you lose the whole thing. So let's say The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (-40) vs The Outer Worlds Halo: Reach (-10) vs Life Is Strange If you bet $100 on each of these individually and win, you earn a $100 profit on each, for a total of $200. However, if you parlay and both win you will get x3, meaning you win a $300 profit. However, if either match is wrong you lose the entire bet. 3 and 4 match parlays will give higher payouts, but you risk losing it all if any match in the parlay is wrong. 2-Match Parlay: 3 to 1 ($100 bet = $300 profit) 3-Match Parlay: 7 to 1 ($100 bet = $700 profit) 4-Match Parlay: 15 to 1 ($100 bet = $1500 profit) You can choose any combination of parlays and single bets you want. Today's Matches Grand Theft Auto V (-50) vs. Baba Is You (GTAV with 75%) Cuphead (-15) vs. XCOM 2 (Cuphead with 57.5%) Persona 4 Golden (-44) vs. FTL: Faster Than Light (P4G with 72%) Red Dead Redemption (-46) vs. Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective (RDR with 73%) --- MZero, to the extreme I'm a cheater at videogames - ertyu ...
