Side bets for Adam v Scar $500 MM

[Adam M!]

me and scar are doing five sets at $100 a piece at don't go down there jeff. the rules of the money match are as follows:

each set is best of five. pound 4 rules. no character restrictions. any and all trash talk is allowed, but if any of you make it personal about me, expect to see me in your face.

I WILL NOT ALLOW MYSELF TO BE RECORDED. NO EXCEPTIONS.

the rules of the side bets are as follows:

minimum $20 bets

the player who wins the most sets will be declared the winner.

i have decided i will not take anyone's bet straight up but instead i must receive 1.5:1.

example: you bet $15. i cover your $15. if you win you get $10. if i win i get $15

i will cover up to 1K in side bets.

there is no doubt we will do this thing properly!

i'm sure both parties can agree on sheridan (norcal) holding the money. $500 -- 1K total -- is not a paltry sum. does anyone have a personal safe? i will not get robbed, and will explore legal options if necessary.

On Scar:

Daniel Lee (tafokints): $200
Brian Laub (Gishnak): $100
Joe Clifford (replicate): $20

This should be included in the DGDTJ Thread title to create hype for the tournament to increase attendance (so Jason doesn't lose money like last time).

EDIT: Adam already said this in the DGDTJ thread. Emphasizing this does not hurt for Jason's tournament though.

 

[ssbbFICTION]

So much hype! :D

[Adam M!]

[TaFoKiNtS]

My $50 on Scar for your $75

 

[joeplicate]

$30 on scar for $20

that being said, good luck adam haha
this is gonna be really entertaining

 

[Adam M!]

your name is daniel lee correct?

FULL NAMES WILL BE NEEDED! YOU ALSO MUST PHYSICALLY ATTEND THE TOURNAMENT!

 

[TaFoKiNtS]

Yes, Daniel Lee. I will be at the tourney
I also think we should have an escrow or a bookie in the form of a responsible trustworthy smasher to make sure both sides (i know you will, Adam) have the money before the MM begins, so that everything gets distributed fairly

 

[Adam M!]

absolutely. there is no doubt we will do this thing properly!

You should put this in the OP.

why? /

 

[DJMirror]

why? /

Recording johns. Ever since there's has more and more people recording matches, there's recording johns.


Hella dumb.

 

[Gishnak]

On Scar:

Brian Laub (Gishnak): $100

(for your 150)

 

[TaFoKiNtS]

I think it's the opposite gishnak.
Your 100 for his $150

Adam, I'm going to up myself to
my $300 for your $200 (so that I can reserve a space before other people get in on it)

 

[Gishnak]

I may have said it wrong, but I understand that if Adam wins, I owe him 150, and if Scar wins he owes me 100.

 

[Adam M!]

good idea! i'm glad it looks like i'll be able to cover my thousand!

1.5k on smash is good enough for me! i'm so excited!

oscar: i don't want people learning anything from me. the only people i want to help are the people who are lucky enough to play me.

it's also great because it forces people to attend the tournament!

thanks JB! you're a pal

assuming all goes to plan i will have no problems escrowing my money to sheridan one month in advance. i expect bob to do the same. i'll draw out a contract quickly and such so it's nothing but business!

 

[metalreflectslime]

Name

FULL NAMES WILL BE NEEDED!

Is this because the people making the side bets need to show their Picture ID to Sheridan in order to collect / give the money so a random person claiming to be someone else doesn't just show up and take the money?

 

[TaFoKiNtS]

Basically, to prevent flakiness. Often times, money matches don't pan out. We want to make this as legit as possible

 

[Juggleguy]

Don't give anyone cash beforehand... have each sign a personal check and make Sheridan hold onto them until the winning amount is decided!

 

[pockyD]

nah man cash sounds amazing

 

[Adam M!]

great idea! thank you

 

[Brian]

$30 on scar
this **** is gonna be tiiight

 

[The Greater Leon]

please reconsider recording. i really want to see but cant travel

 

[Adam M!]

dude if i see someone so much as recording this with their phone or their video camera the entire money match is off.

i'll make sure to PM bobby and add that as a stipulation

but for you brendan i will be glad to give a detailed write-up for any interested parties unable to make it!

 

[JDM]

Just record live commentary only during the match.

 

[AzN_Lep]

just have atlus make one of his epic blog threads with loads of exclamation marks.

i'd read it

how about i record or stream the players and crowd/**** talk/gangsta-ness through webcam on my laptop? but i promise not to get the actual match/tv screen.

 

[The Greater Leon]

****

someone sneak it on their phone, send it to me, and delete it

 

[pewpewyou]

That's a really good idea hahaha. I wanna see this!

 

[Deleted member]

if you keep getting better doesn't matter about people "learning" you from your old matches

NEVER MIND misread ur explanation

edit: im gunna see how much cash i can spare before i make bets.. but i'll make a bet definitely

 

[Fly_Amanita]

I don't like the recording clause in its current form since near the end of the MM, a friend of the losing player could hold up a cell phone and void the MM. Although I wouldn't expect somebody to do this, you might want to reconsider how you'll prevent people from recording since you're not dealing with pocket change.

 

[healing red wizard]

Honestly, this sounds so far-fetched that I feel like it could almost be a scam.

Well if you weren't an idiot and knew the OP, you would know it is not.
