I chickened out a little.

I don't trust the Texans at home.....they are so unpredictable. I could see them losing by 14 or winning by 21.

Dumb question, but is the reason nobody won without the spread because the game went to overtime?

That is a good question. I bet like 700 on it.

hmmm I'm not sure what happened, I didn't settle this one. You will have to PM justin to see if he can add what you won to your total. The over and the Ravens straight up should have won also.

I'd guess Ironman handled it then. I bet like 6 or 700 on it. I don't see why overtime would have anything to do with it. A W is a W no matter which period the game is decided.

Yeah could have been I92, but he usually does a good job making sure things are right. Someone also settled the "no spread" event and only selected 1 team as winning? Not sure what is going on.

I think the only person that should be able to settle events are the creator of the thread.

Yeah, when the game ends has no effect on the outcome of the bet.

Maybe a computer glitch here. Im sure it will be corrected before the next available wager is available.

Eh, I don't have a problem with I92 settling bets and I doubt he cares if I settle his. I know we have both made minor mistakes on occasion but I've made errors on settling my own too. If it is other mods doing it, unless they know what they are doing I'd prefer they don't. The NO SPREADS event is ridiculous. In the grand scheme of things its internet virtual cash, but its still a pain in the butt if justin has to go in and adjust everyone who bet on the thread.

I don't really think a computer glitch is the cause of this. Its pretty easy to settle the bets and for only 1 winner out of 15 or whatever to be selected is just odd.

Makes you wonder if the one winner selected settled just his?

That's what I think happened in both cases yesterday. The only thing I'm not sure on is if all mods have the ability to settle bets. I know I didn't settle them, I92 says he didn't, and there is one more vbookie I believe but don't think he would have done it either.

Since I am not permitted to start a new thread I had to ask this here. Would you have the time to add maybe a half dozen NBA games a day? Even maybe 3?

Yeah I will try to get some NBA games going again. The only thing with that is the odds only come out a day in advance and not until all games for the night have started. I did do them for a while but then got bogged down when I made something like 13 events in one day. In the future, if there is something you want put up, feel free to shoot me a PM in case I don't come on the vbookie forum.

I didnt think you. Look at each game on both days with the same big winner?

Yeah...it's fairly obvious that someone either doesn't know what they are dong or they are just a clueless cheater.
