Title: Got a project idea.. INTERNET WRESTLING!
Post by: ridgemont4 on July 05, 2012, 03:45:58 PM
2 people debate,
unlimited people spectate and BET on who the fuck is winning the argument.

pretty neat idea right?

here's how it's practical... two internet trolls think they have the better argument.. so they set up a match, then people come in and bet on who they think is going to win while they are arguing. below their debate is a chat box for the spectators. I guess when a certain percentage of spectators vote on a certain person, that is when they have officially won. there will need to be a non-voting period prior to this to give each side time..

this is fun for people who like to bet, analyze, and learn..

initially the two wrestlers must put down money... the host may put down money too.. so it's just like pro wrestling, mixed with casino, mixed with real life debates. it's all mental.

i'm far to stupid to execute the idea.. so whoever wants to take up this project, that would be cool.. keep in mind, you may want to throw down your own bitcoins to host these debates because someone may invite non-bitcoin users who really don't give a fuck about bitcoin, they just want to go up against their opponent. just like in wrestling, it's not the money or the fame sometimes, it's a real fight. and the spectators take the money.

how I came up with this idea was from observing another forum where people pick on each other all day long.. if you really want to do this right, you will cater to them, because they really need a place to wage their wars.. i promise, this must done right or don't do it at all. what i mean by that is, you're inviting hateful people to debate against each other. don't give them another thing to hate.. remember hateful people are very simple minded and possess no deeper intellectual capacity. make the website as simple as you can.. they will be offended if this is centered around bitcoins. they want to feel like they and their debate are the most important thing on earth.

Although it may be hard to determine who is winning, this  might be a fun spectator event.  :)
It could be used like a duel to settle an issue between trolls. Let the free market be the judge! lol

good one man!

a spin would be the one who raised the most money won the argument (and thus he would get some coins, (from the other guys stack or something), interesting idea.

It would be even better if it was done in the old-school mortal kombat style, with hit point bars at the top of the screen and all.  Each time your opponent delivers a statement, the spectators can vote it up if they think it is a strong argument.  More votes = a bigger hit.  Too few votes = a-swing-and-a-miss, plus the opponent heals a little.  First one to 0 HP loses.  ;)
