The deadline to accept this offer is September 1st.
Remember...if I do not finish at least +100 units by the end of the season (post included), I will pay everyone that accepted this offer 25 SBR points. But if I do finish at least +100 units, anyone who accepted has to pay me 75 SBR points.

Maybe I'm missing something, but if MadCapper has to transfer 25 points to eight people and he has only 6 points to his credit, I'm having a hard time getting that math to work. I'm reminded of Lee Trevino's famous quote: "Pressure is playing a five-dollar Nassau when you only have $2 on you."

Before you get to far up or down...in my post #21...I was replying to your post #20...in which you had said you had an ugly start... I was not accepting 1/3 odds on imaginary unit play! Just wanted to clarify that before you are headed in either direction... I see you are about even... I will not be following the thread and was surprised to see my name on list...but I did go back and see how it could be misinterpreted..my mistake... I was replying yes to an ugly start... and just mentioning the points you already owed me which I did receive... But not interested in this...
GL with your contest but I am not in...last thing I want to do is be involved in baseball right now! Taking a break after another season long winning thread...

He did borrow some points I bellieve and has been paying...he has another thread in which he is 0-6 in...and has been paying... But I agree really not a lot of risk because the unit size could be anything...and sure seeing he has had a really bad run since he started all these threads...maybe he will have a good run..who knows... But with nothing on the table of his own to lose...really no risk at all at 1/3 odds to him to be placing 4-5 bets a day...
But I am not interested... GL to those involved...

I will give anyone who doesnt believe I can accomplish my goal of +100 units by the end of the (post) season 25 SBR points. But if you accept the offer, and post so (declaring your acceptance) in this thread before September 1st, and I do accomplish my goal, then you will have to fork over 75 points to me. (I think 3:1 odds is excellent considering this outrageous, outlandish, near impossible claim on my part)

I have a baseball thread (still on page #1 of baseball forum for at least a few hours)..which I just ended for the year which was very successful... I earned over 5000 points between generous members who donated and just racking up points daily. I used half of the points recently to give a gift to a child... the small camera SBR offers(Canon). Just hit complete baseball burnout this week and seeing I could not give 100% to those that followed the thread by doing my homework...which usually took about 5-8 hours a week.. knew it was time to end... I watched way to many games this year...and stared at that little ball moving on espn gamecast until I could not take it anymore...
Well good luck...
