[BooG690]

I like option 1.

However, FTR doesn't gamble. It's weird. There've been a bunch of attempts to get a pool going that have fallen flat numerous times.

[badgers]

in

[Muzzard]

Would be in for option 1!

[chrisa]

In!

[WillburForce]

So thats 5 - Just 27 more to go!

[a500lbgorilla]

For 10 bucks, I'll prove that buttfucker wrong. In.

[BooG690]

[a500lbgorilla]

Option 2 - I take Argentina, the other 31 people go into random.org and are assigned a team.

[Stacks]

Gambling is immoral imo.

[WillburForce]

Gambling is immoral imo.

that an "in" then?

[Toadstool]

Option 2 - I take Argentina, the other 31 people go into random.org and are assigned a team.

I'm in, this sounds good to me.

[Muzzard]

I'm sure sil693 would be in and my mate, who I'd vouch for and even send the money for would be in too.

[WillburForce]

I'm sure sil693 would be in and my mate, who I'd vouch for and even send the money for would be in too.

Cool - mates name? I'll add him to list at top.

We're prob gonna need at least 20, then people can start doubling up to fill up the numbers. I'm happy chucking in $20 for 2 teams ( oh yeah, thats how I roll, showing the cash).

[givememyleg]

random gamble? i'm in. if we don't get 32, we can have 16 and people get 2 teams for $20?

[givememyleg]

oh you just said that

[a500lbgorilla]

I was just thinking if we don't get 32, we can just let people buy 2 teams. Then we'll only need like 20.

[WillburForce]

i wasn't implying that half of 32 is 20 you nit picking nit picker.

[Muzzard]

I'll get my mate to make an account today

[Stacks]

Bah... I wasn't gonna join because I've never watched a soccer game in my life. But for $10, I'll enter.

[WillburForce]

Bah... I wasn't gonna join because I've never watched a soccer game in my life. But for $10, I'll enter.

Could go either way.

a) you get someone decent like Spain, Brazil, Argentina(Messi) and spend the rest of your life watching nothing but old replays of footballing greats on youtube and debating the pros and cons of the Dutch Total Football System

B) you get someone shite like Honduras, Chile, Germany and never watch another game of football again

[BooG690]

Winner take all?

Also, let your friends know since FTR is a collection of nits with no gamble.

can we have the option to trade teams? I don't want some front running euro/south american team, no fun there

[flomo]

i have iceland, lets trade

[WillburForce]

dunno about trading, kinda ruins the point of a random sweepstake. And getting a shit team at least gives you some interest when they play.

I'm easy though, whatever people think.

[drmcboy]

that's my point, I want a shit team, presumably some others don't? I'm not rooting for italy just to ship 300.

[WillburForce]

Winner take all?

Maybe winner gets $250, 2nd place $70.

Again though I'm easy with whatever.

[BankItDrew]

in

what do i have to do?

[WillburForce]

in

what do i have to do?

not alot. ship $10 or $20 as and when its sorted. get a team. enjoy the world cup.

[BankItDrew]

How do I get a team?

How do I get $10 or $20?

What is The World Cup?

That is what she said.

My apostrophe is broken.

[aka_red]

gambling is wrong.

[donkbee]

random gamble? I'm in.

THIS gogogo

[pokerfan]

In! Go Go Top 3 spots!

[sil693]

Innnnnnnnnn

[WillburForce]

gambling is wrong.

gambling is indeed wrong. But this is a game of skill. You put in some money, get given a random team that you have no control over and possibly win lots of money.

are you in or what???

[mbiz]

for $10 im in if its sweepstakes, dont like the idea of trading


dranger you better keep me updated in irc on this thread

[dranger7070]

I assume we're going to escrow, who's going to do it? I don't mind if wilburforce does, but since he's taking part in the bet some people might not like it. Thoughts?

[WillburForce]

yeah, prob best for me not to do it. I'd blow it all on hookers and crack.

Nakamura held the money for our Premier League thing, so if he doesn't want to take part in this we could ask him?

[XTR1000]

C'Mon Germany. Fuck You England!

!

Also, count me in.

[BooG690]

I'd ask that Willbur doesn't do the randomizing of teams.

He'd obviously get the bestest team and I (the cunt) would probably get the worstest.

Mr BuFu formerly known as Boog, you sir know me well.

Willbur - Spain
BuFunt - Honduras

on a cereal note - does anyone have a random.org account? I didn't realise you have to sign up to it.

[pokerfan]

Give me USA!!! fuck England!!

[chrisa]

What if we all selected a number, and which ever number was last is assigned to Willbur?

[flomo]

rigged

[rong]

and I (the cunt)

I like this cuntish acknowledgement.

And IN!!!!!!!!!!


C'mon England!!!! Fuck you America!!!!!
(And fuck you too Germany! & Italy & France & Spain & Argentina, and in fact South America as a whole, & South Korea.... North Korea you're ok 'cos nobody likes you, you're like the country quivelent of the English tourist!)

[Nakamura]

I think I'm in for this one.

I hope I get SA, clearly as host nation we're going to dominate. Any resistance will pounded by 50 000 vuvuzelas.

[Donachello]

In fa sho.

[babygeorgia]

hay, im intrested in joining

[Muzzard]

I will vouch for this guy

[babygeorgia]

[WillburForce]

Do the Boers support the Saffis in football? Or are they trying to demand their own team?

[XTR1000]

I´d also put up an extra $5 on germany making it further than united england-land

[badgers]

crazy Germans with their strong economy - money to burn.

I'll take you up if you want to give me more money as well as Badgers!

[flomo]

who do i send the money to?

and when do i get a team?

[a500lbgorilla]

Who gets ma money?

[WillburForce]

we got a little while till the World Cup starts - we need 32 sweepstakers or people to take 2 teams if we can't enough.

I'm happy to escrow the money, but it should prob be someone not involved.

Suggestions?

[a500lbgorilla]

If someone runs off with 10 dollars of my money, I will devote the rest of my life to bringing that person to true Justice.

So I would love you to escrow.

I'm gonna give the winner $310. Then tell them i've ran off with your $10.

Then live the rest of my mortal life (and poss the afterlife) in fear that a large gorilla wants to bring true justice to me.

Anywhos - i'll wait till we have 32 commits, then we'll sort money and teams.

[givememyleg]

I'm fine sending it to someone who is playing.

[flomo]

I'm fine sending it to someone who is playing.

i vote for you.

the scandal would be amazing

[givememyleg]

i need to chip my way back up to the $10k i was screwed out of!

[kevster]

In, obviously, before I've fully read the thread. Get my name down Will or I'm sending round an East End hardman to fuck West Ham in the ass.

[kevster]

In!

can we have the option to trade teams? I don't want some front running euro/south american team, no fun there

This. More fun if you get apparent african outsiders who are actually quite qood and make a real run at it. Lookup Cameroon & Roger Milla, 1990. Ok, they weren't that good but memorable all the same.

[kevster]

Give me USA!!! fuck England!!

I feel this thread could get de-railed on June 12th regardless of the result.

[kevster]

As an aside, a prediction league would kick-ass if you could find one Will.

[BankItDrew]

Kevster has good taste:

YANKs ARE COMING!! USA star Landon Donovan strongly believes that England striker Rooney is " worn out" this season.
