Betting on the Election - Kuro - 09-30-2016
Please don't just read the title and -1, this is a serious suggestion.
I'm proposing a new method of gambling in which players can "bet" on two or more options.
It's only going to be used in special occasions and I'd recommend using this to bet with in-game coins on the outcome of the US President.
It's just something to do for fun, the pot will be collected until the date of the election and closed on the morning of it.
All entries are going to be anonymous, all you will be able to see is what the odds of the coins being bet is.
So say for example one candidate's pot has 3x the amount of coins, it will say X is leading 3 to 1.
At the end when the results are announced, if you get back your bet and you win what your percentage was of the losers' pot. (having 5% of your entire candidates pot wins you 5% of the other total pot.)
Keep in mind you're not betting on who you support, just on who you think is most likely to become president.
It's a cool system to implement and it can be used for other things in the future.

Gambling is illegal if you're under the age of 18 (occasionally 21 if you're at a casino )
