The 6 of you tonight will play with the odds. Gamble a little.

In the show Breaking Bad, there comes a time when Walter has to make up a story about all this new money. One of the lies that is told to others is that he won all the money while gambling. I don't want to spoil the show for those who haven't started watching it yet but this is very small so it's not really ruining anything.

You will be gambling away some fake money tonight in this new competition I want to call ~Know Your Odds~

There will be 7 rounds. Each round I will give you a time frame and you will have to bet or pass.

Bet: Every player will start with $100 fake money. You will bet whatever amount from what you have left each round you decide to bet. Each time you complete the task in the allowed time frame, you will win double what you bet.

Pass: You forfeit winning any money for that round but you also don't risk losing any either.

The person with the most money after 7 rounds will win the ~Blue Power of Veto~.

Rules

- You will only have 2 minutes to place your bets in your diary room
- You will not be allowed to submit twice in any round
- Spelling counts
- I advise you read instructions carefully each round

Any questions before we start promptly at 9:00 p.m. eastern?

You have 2 minutes to place your bets in your diary room for round #1

Round #1 - You will have 60 seconds to complete the task

Bets are in and the task will be posted in 60 seconds

* I forgot to mention this in the rules so I will only make it official as of the next round. (If you do not bet or pass on time, you will be eliminated from the challenge)

My internet just went down, but I'm a little confused on the game. Can't I just bet $100 each round?

what was the task for round 1?

Admin Posts : 519 Join date : 2014-02-01

Task Round #1

Post in your diary room as many IMDb user id's that begin with the letter B. You have to post proper user id's and they must be from the Games Board

No Skyler. If you bet 100 and you don't complete the task in the allowed time, you will not have any more money.

^So how do you win that? Whoever has the most?

If you pass do you have to complete the task?

Isn't this round 2?

Posts : 490 Join date : 2014-02-01

Oh right I get it.

Posts : 244 Join date : 2014-02-02

I'm thinking no but I want to be clear.

this round is a write off for me

Posts : 330 Join date : 2014-02-02

I don't understand, example;

If I post pass, I don't have to do the task.

However if I accept the task and do $20 and win I get $40.
If I loose I loose the $20.

Alright let's scratch the first round because no one seems to understand. let me simulate a round for you.

Step 1: Host makes a post and gives you how long you will have to complete the task
Step 2: You decide if you want to chance it by betting, or you pass. You only have 2 minutes to decide
Step 3: Within that 2 minutes, you make a post in your diary room that says "Bet" or "Pass"
Step 4: If you "Bet" you must also put an amount you want to bet (It has to be within what you have left)
Step 5: I will make another post to inform you when the task will be up
Step 6: I post the task and you follow the directions. Keeping in mind of the time I said you had for the task in Step 1

Makes sense?

^that Skyler. You understand.

So if we say bet, but do not do the task, we lose that money?

Posts : 19 Join date : 2014-02-02

This isn't hard Laughing

Got it, sorry but thanks for explaining handsome - this is the man I fell in love with.

Admin Posts : 519 Join date : 2014-02-01

Yes you lose the money if you bet. Let's say you bet $10 and you don't post a right answer in time, you will lose $10. If you do post a right answer in the right amount of time, you will win $20.

I know it sounds probably harder than it is, but I'm trying to be ~original~ with my challenges as much as possible.

Posts : 375 Join date : 2014-02-01

how do you determine a winner if you ask something like list the most names that start with b.. if someone just sent in 1 name do they double up?
