Our previous champion PlayYourCardsRight has fallen to third place. In second, flying under the radar, is UKMark. Our new champion is none other than train wreck survivor Nathan :D! Congratulations, Nathan, on pulling into first. Don't spend all your winnings on lottery tickets.
I think you categorically forgot to include the $50 from OnceDear.

That is not my business. I tabulate only official game money.

Just so I'm clear, only captians vote. $25 prize pool, but $50 if all share... Right?
Quote: WizardThat is not my business. I tabulate only official game money.
Didn’t Oncedear send you the $50 though? So it’s a little bit your business?
Also could you set forth the rules and prize pool for this most recent round?
I believe share is the correct vote for the current round. If you feel otherwise, please PM me, but I do retain the right to make the final team decision.
I've never been a big fan of democracy. You should have heard the call I had when a national party called to elicit a donation. I basically told them I vote consistently for divided government so neither group gets all of what they want. I also did not donate.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure we will get an all share this round and with both Axel and Romes in the big pool, I can't see anyone having a better chance of doubling it up than us.
Here is some mood music for Axel and Romes.

Note that there is a slight disparity with these results and the table that I compiled. It relates to the way that Sodawater, Heymrdj, Boz and Billryan left the game early.Quote: WizardHere is an updated money table through round 8.
billryan 0.4 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1.4 Boz 0.4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.4 HeyMrDJ 0.4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.4 sodawater 0.4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.4
In my table of results, I treated them as ineligible for any share of their team's prize on the round that they did not complete. That obviously affects the winnings of their other team members.
I await Wizard's adjudication on what is the more appropriate treatment. Obviously Wizard has not tabulated my unofficial contribution of $110.
outrageous!.....:implying that we are cheap. Onm wanted at least $7 in an earlier round.... Of course,if I were captain, I'd demand at least 50 centsQuote: RSCan I donate $1 to the pool IF AND ONLY IF there is at least 1 steal vote?

He sent me money twice. I'll distribute it at the end how he asks me to. However, this vote buying money is not an official part of the game and doesn't get included in the scores.
7 shares = $50
1- 6 shares = $25
0 shares = $0
Deadline is 9 PM Vegas time Friday.
What's this about $25??? Is Wizard stiffing me?Quote: WizardHe sent me money twice. I'll distribute it at the end how he asks me to. However, this vote buying money is not an official part of the game and doesn't get included in the scores.

...I just wanna watch Axel sweat a little.
Quote: onenickelmiracleIf GWAE will steal, I have a hard time seeing Prozema being left without the split. He will vote steal if he thinks GWAE will steal. Then there is the risk of GWAE not stealing, and Prozema being the only one. From my POV, don't see him wanting to be stuck with that. I'm not really sure Prozema wants to steal, just doesn't want someone to steal and let them be the only one. Well, seems the circle has been drawn, GWAE has been bribed.
This is also known as ONM trying to stir the pot and put doubts in the captains minds. Problem is you’ve done a poor job of creating doubt lol. Everyone is sharing this round, easy peasy.
Quote: onenickelmiracleI have trouble seeing this list of captains as bona fide sure thing share. I don't know how Axel didn't put himself on and put GWAE on. GWAE is actually the person I'm truthfully most certain will always steal. The list is almost just bait to induce bets, so I'm suspicious there is something I don't know. Really seems like too good to be true in terms of betting against them. How do you not put Face on the list, he is a share vote no matter what, I would have.
GWAE is in our side pool, an all-share benefits us more than any possible combination of steals because we are all on different teams. Wizard actually could have made that really interesting by slapping RS and MaxPen on a four-man team with GWAE! A steal would be GREAT for our side pool, then. In fact, in that scenario, it would be best for us for GWAE to steal and everyone else to share, myself included.
I still highly doubt we would have ever done it. The side pool is generally pretty committed to doing the best thing for everybody, unless another player(s) in the game decides to give us a good reason not to. I would say the other three are even more committed than me, because there are now two people who I will absolutely not share with regardless of what RS, MaxPen and GWAE think about it.
I don't know that Face is a, "Share vote no matter what." Seems like too much of a Democratic type of guy to me. I have to wonder if he were to be on a five-man team, and three of his teammates voted steal, if he wouldn't do it. I almost feel like he'd think he had an obligation to.
In my team's case, and no undue offense to them, but their opinions are irrelevant to me this round. Axel put me as a captain with the specific expectation that I would share no matter what, so that's what I did within two minutes of Wizard officially announcing the teams.
I have nothing to gain, I'm on BBBs team. I haven't fought for us to steal, pretty much see it as useless considering it. I'd like a unanimous share vote.Quote: PokerGrinderThis is also known as ONM trying to stir the pot and put doubts in the captains minds. Problem is you’ve done a poor job of creating doubt lol.

Mark my words: GWAE will NOT steal. There is literally no reason whatsoever for him to do that. It doesn't make sense in the context of Axel making him a captain, and it would harm the side pool.
Quote: RomesIf at least 1 captain steals, I'll donate $10 to the big pool.
This sounds very positive EV guys to steal. I'd sweeten the pot, but I promised to not buy votes.

Might I make a suggestion then... You're not going to buy votes, but you can change the rules. Perhaps for this round ONLY you can make the votes anonymous?? Perhaps a little anonymity would be the nudge our captains need to press the steal button?Quote: WizardThis sounds very positive EV guys to steal.

Surprise, surprise. :)
One steals:- Axel brings $25 to the table : Romes brings $10 to the table : Mike's $50 burns a hole in is pocket and gets slapped down on the table in a later round.
So, overall, over this and the next few rounds, the purse is 35 + 50 + x or it's 50 + x
+ev for the players for a steal. Mike is not concerned, either way as he set the total of his contribution. Probably did at round 0.
Axel can live with losing $25 to learn who will stab him in the back. Romes can afford the $10 for the amusement.
All steal, is of course unthinkable.
In a future round, there may be another sponsor bringing even more non-Mike money to the table.

You're making a lot of assumptions there, OD. Perhaps you've bought that right, but it's entirely hypothetical that Mike will put money he doesn't lose to us in one round towards any subsequent round. In fact, he's indicated the opposite on previous non-optimal rounds.
And, yeah, there could be other third party provocations, but there aren't any better options than all-share on this round. Gotta play 'em one game at a time.
Quote: onenickelmiracleI don't want you angry at me, you're supposed to be angry at other **** puppets.
YES!!!
But it should be super easy for Axel's super team right? I mean none of them would be mad about not getting an 'invite' to certain events, right? None of them would, in the spirit of the game and not real life, want to watch axel's money burn, right???Quote: onenickelmiracleI was just kidding, hope everyone votes share. I know it wasn't easy the last round to pull it off.

This one was easy. If Axel did not get to pick the captains I'd say it would have been a longshot, but with him picking captains it should be a slam dunk.
OD trying to read Mike's mind is a pathetic attempt at discord, by the way. Take as much money now, you never know when the faucet will be turned off.
You overlook one wildcard. OnceDear has more money than sense and has been known to kick up some dust just for the mischief. Not in this round, of course. That would have been too easy. I may, or may not do so again, depending on how this round rolls.
Despicable, dishonorable worm, Britt b1tch :o)
