Yeah, this is a good idea. Any games that appear to have great pitching matchup or someone reaching a historic milestone or even just teams at the top of their division.

I added Braves at Phils and BoSox at Rays for tonight. Those two seem to be the best matchups of the day.

How about every single athletic event going on? Is that so hard? This place is so minor league!

I'm going home.

Does everyone revert back to 500 when reset, or does the stuff carry over?

I think they multiply whatever you have by 500.

Is there an easy way to just see you vcash balance? The only way right now is to click on vBookie, then I have to go into one of the threads where you place a bet. Shouldn't it display as soon as you click vBookie?

It's below your post count on every post you make.

Right, but when I'm in vBookie I am not in a post. And why should I have to go looking for a post I made in a forum to see my balance? Just doesn't seem very intuitive.

Why would it be that important to know your balance unless you were getting ready to place a bet?

Where would you expect to see your balance? I didn't write the vbookie plugin but I can look into adding your balance to another location if I get time and it makes sense.

To me it seems like when I click on vBookie it should show me my balance. Not a big deal. I just wondered if I was missing it somewhere. Maybe something like this.

Welcome back, WebFire!
Your vCash balance is 901.
Go on, have a flutter. Be careful you don't lose your shirt!

I think he is saying that if the plugin allowed, to place it somewhere like in the "Welcome to the Bookie!" box on the left that says welcome back [user], etc. when you click on the vBookie tab. It's a pretty big, empty space if it would allow.

Both of the former vMillionaires are giving vBlowjobs in a back alley right now looking for more cash.

They finally both bit it on one of their big bets.

Man, just saw that. You mean we have to go the rest of the month until reset? Damn. Stupid soccer matches wiped me out. I'm a broke mother. :(

^^^I know what Webfire means...when you click on vBookie and it welcomes you back, it seems like your balance should be there....instead, I have to look for a vBookie thread I posted on, click on it to see my balance, then go back to the thread to bet.

just a comment....

I really like the feature...it will be really rocking during NFL and NCAA football.....nice addition Justin.

and....i'm still in the black with 4000.....do I need to squander it all before we all get reset???




By the way Web....where did you lose it all?
