PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"TAR15 Casino Game - Wk3 Results / Wk4 Entry" |
LAST EDITED ON 10-14-09 AT 08:45 PM (EST)Toni/Dallas'd!It's such a bummer to see Zev & Justin go this week, especially after finishing first. They seemed like they would be a really fun team to watch throughout the season and had a legitimate shot at being a contender. It's amazing how one moment of not paying attention can cost you the race. Bummer. Week 3 Results
1st place - Sam/Dan (2x)
2nd place - FlightTime/BigEasy (1.9x)
3rd place - Brian/Ericka (1.8x)
4th place - Gary/Matt (1.1x)
5th place - Meghan/Cheyne (even)
6th place - Lance/Keri (.9x)
7th place - Mika/Canaan (.2x)
8th place - Maria/Tiffany (.1x)
9th place - Zev/Justin (0x) Neato.Another nice week of scoring. The Top 3 teams were mostly the popular picks, which gave most people a nice payout. Meghan & Cheyne's 5th place finish cost some players the opportunity to gain more points, but at least they weren't negative. And we have another new entry, IanQuentin, to the game. Welcome!  The Perfect Bet Award goes to Starshine, qwertypie, and 4nikk8, who each doubled their scores. Interestingly, this is the second-straight perfect round for Starshine, which is pretty remarkable.This week's Greatest Gainer Award also goes to Starshine, who climbed 15 ranks to #18 overall. Unfortunately, Starshine will now have to pay for a new trophy rack to house all these awards that are piling up now. I've got a gilded trophy rack to sell for, let's say, 10 points.  Leaderboard

The only change to this week is that new players will start with 5 points. This week's Bonus Winner was louislam. Unfortunately, I didn't receive a payout table yet, so I ended up making this one. Week 4 Payout Table
1st place - 2x
2nd place - 1.3x
3rd place - 1.2x
4th place - 1.1x
5th place - Break even
6th place - .9x
7th place - .5x
8th place - 0xMax Individual Bet - 40 points
Bonus Pick - Time spread between Sam/Dan & Maria/Tiffany Starting next week, the traditional bonus games begin. In addition to the Payout Tables, though, I won't be picking them... The bonus winner will. I'll post several different bonus game options in this thread, and the Bonus Winner gets to pick one, in addition to making the Payout Table. TAR14 Teams Remaining
Brian/Ericka
FlightTime/BigEasy
Gary/Matt
Lance/Keri
Maria/Tiffany
Meghan/Cheyne
Mika/Canaan
Sam/Dan Good luck! Don't forget to make your bonus pick!

1. "Payout Table Construction" |
This post is a guide for the person who wins the Bonus Game this week. Think of it as a weekly reference guide. The rules will change throughout the season as the game gets a little looser.After the new episode airs, I'll post the correct answer in this thread, identify the winner, and send a private message to that individual. The winner has until the following Tuesday night (midnight) to contact me with their Payout Table for the following week. They can either post it in this thread or send me a private message if they want to be secretive. If the winner doesn't contact me with their Payout Table by Tuesday night, I will create the next Payout Table instead. Payout Table Rules(These may change throughout the season when we get farther into the game.) 1. Your Table must have a ranking for all the potential rankings of the teams. Use the format that I use. 1st place -
2nd place -
3rd place -
4th place -
5th place -
6th place -
7th place - (This is assuming they eliminate a team on Sunday. If they don't, add 8th place on there.) 2. 1st place must be 2x and last place must be 0x. 3. The payout multipliers must decrease as you go down the rankings list. Therefore, you can't do something like... 1st place - 2x
2nd place - 1.8x
3rd place - .3x
4th place - 1.2x That would be pretty mean if you did do that anyway. We'll save that scenario for potentially later in the season. 4. The sum of the multipliers must equal the number of rankings. If there's 8 teams left next week, the multipliers have to add up to 7. If there's still 8, they have to add to 8. 1st place - 2x
2nd place - 1.5x
3rd place - 1.3x
4th place - 1x
5th place - .7x
6th place - .5x
7th place - 0x 2 + 1.5 + 1.3 + 1 + .7 + .5 = 7 Think of it as the good payouts balancing out the bad payouts. 5. No negative multiplier numbers. Man, why would you do that to a person? 6. Round each decimal to the tenths-point. No 1.24235245x payouts. 1.2x will do just fine, thank you. If you follow these rules, your Payout Table will be accepted. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

LAST EDITED ON 10-15-09 AT 11:35 AM (EST)47. popeave - 3 Wow! I should have taken a huge hint when I saw no other bets on the Poker Players last week! I'd be better off joining the game under a different name - at least I'd have 5 points then. But I'll make do with my big three points. I'll go with: all 3 on Brian/Ericka Time bonus: 62 minutes

46. "Yogi wins!" |
LAST EDITED ON 10-18-09 AT 11:29 PM (EST)Yogi is going to be Pitboss of the Week this week by nailing the time spread (30 minutes) right on the nose. Yogi, make sure to send me your Payout Table by Tuesday night. And, because Bonus Games start this week, pick 1 game of the following for everyone to play. You'll probably be familiar with each, so here are the mini-descriptions. 1. PAT, the Painfully Average Team. Make a wager on the team that will finish in 4th place next week. 2. Lucky 8. Make a wager on two teams whose ranks will add to 8 at the end of next week's episode. If the ranks add to 8, you win the bet. If they add to any other number, you lose the full wager. It's the opposite of PAT with 8 players, as you definitely don't want the 4th place pick in your lineup. 3. Loan Sharkin'. The Bank of Jims will loan players points that they can tack onto a Max Bet. Players who take this loan will have to pay back the full amount, plus interest, the following week.
