I'll have 10 (D) each on Babak and fortknox.

@ Ghostmaker: "Jamiet, I've but you down for 10 on each of BZD and Crazyter. Tell me if you don't want that. "

No, that's not what I want. "Straight F/C" is British betting-shop shorthand for "Straight Forecast" and it means I wish to place a single 20 point bet, wagering that BigZombieDude will finish in first place, AND that Crazyter will finish in second. Such betting is particularly common in greyhound racing, where a bet of "1x4 Straight F/C" means Dog #1 will win the race, with Dog #4 in second. An alternative would be "1x4 E/W" which means "Each Way" and would return a win if dogs 1 and 4 came in the top two positions, either 1x4 or 4x1, but the odds in that case would be halved.

As my original League A bet is probably not allowed, can I just put all 20 on Crazyter to win?

(Finally, Ghost, can you confirm that, in accordance with betting practice, when someone places a bet, they take the odds you were offering at that time? i.e. your revised odds only apply to bets placed after the revision? - in which case can you clarify which odds my bet on Crazyter are at, since I attempted to place a bet when the original odds were being advertised, and you had not said you wouldn;t be allowing accumulators, etc)

I suppose you would class this as a kind of accumulator, and therefore not allow it.

I hope my bets are still on at original odds (as perhaps my points have influenced the odds, both my bets have come in a lot!) I may have to revise my bets otherwise. What was the ruling for this?

with such limited maximum bets, and a requirement of 200 to bet in the first place i don't think this will affect the hall of fame..

plus arguably being able to predict the results of other player's diplomacy is a skill worthy of a few points..

Ghost - 10 on each it is then and Crazy...im just being honest, no deflection here!!

Good to all across the leagues and ill be watching to see who goes up from each of them, i think this league system is a great idea.

could i clarify my bet as accumulators arn't allowed?

20 on babak
20 on Crazyter

Bets preceding the new odds are still rewarded based on the old odds yes?

Accumulator bets are not allowed.

Bets preceding new odds are rewarded on the basis of the old odds, yes.

Ghost, here's my bet:

10 each on LanGaidin, Babak, Crazyter and TheWizard.

Thanks

Ok Jamiet, I've put you down for 20 on Crazyter at 4.2
