1st Annual Super Bowlero Pool

[phishead]

I'll buy a minimum of 10 and willing to buy the board for whatever doesn't sell. If you guys want I'm fine with being escrow.

Look at Mr. Moneybags over here... Overly confident after winning that cool 5 XMR FFL jackpot aren't we?? heheh...

Alright, so I think it has been agreed that we are doing 0.02 monero/square for a 2 XMR Jackpot...

Everyone start telling me how many squares they want and who they want to act as escrow.  After that has been decided, the escrow will need to provide a public address and private view key so we can all verify payments.

With only 6 players, we'll need 16-17 entries each to fill up the grid. I'll commit to 10 entries but can go more, if necessary. Obviously, it would be much better if we get more participants but we got a week to go.

jwinterm is fine for escrow but what about asking fluffypony? Maybe he can add a bonus to the pot (and get some attention for the pool!) 

I'll start advertising a little bit more once we get closer to gameday this upcoming week.  Maybe jwin can help spread word with his crew over at /r/cryptocurrencies?  And I'm more than ok with jwinterm always being escrow for little gambling shenanigans I run; I was just assuming there was a chance of more new comers wanting to play and not knowing who he was and would want a more well known "escrowy" type of person on the forum.  Not to mention Ric is South African... his interest in participating in anything associated with American Football is probably the same as me being interested in participating in a gambling pool for a Cricket match.

I'll put both you guys down for ten squares, plus 10 for me as well.  Hueristic, I still got you at 2 squares, but if you want more just let me know.  That goes for anyone else wanting to play from here forth.  If everyone is still ok with Jwinterm being escrow, I'll be talking with him soon in order to get a pool wallet set up and will provide the information needed to go ahead and in their moonertos to the pot.

Look at it this way, this is more than likely the last time we have to have an escrow with full trust in said escrow person... multisig soon™.

Alright I'm going to update the OP with a wallet generated by jwinterm for the escrow wallet.  We need some more people from what it looks like kinda last minute; so invite the whole famn damily to play.

[Hueristic]

I'm in. What are you thinking for buy in?

Well, it seems we always over shoot a realistic price *cough* FFL *cough cough*... I think 2 xmr is a pretty good chunk of USD to win on a pool game like this based on random luck.  So maybe .02 per square?  Hopefully there will be some other people showing up soon who might have some opinions on the matter

.02 per square needs to be placed in the OP. And if JW has no issue taking my Paypal I'll take 10 squares.

I have no issue with putting in 0.2 XMR for let's say 50 PayPal bux from Hueristic.

I have no idea WTF,  but I'll play

Sounds good.  I'm in for 10, + Split the difference with jwinterm and anyone else as/if required.

Alright alrigggghttttt.. things are getting interesting now.  I'll submit my payment in tomorrow and provide the tx hash myself. Maybe some other stragglers will come through tomorrow

Hueristic and I are both paid in, 0.2 XMR each, txid:

Don't count on me, count on the block # whatever is after the 12 PM count down... I guess we can all decide on which one to go off of tomorrow, isn't the blockchain based on UTC timezone? If so, whatever block is after 12 PM EST.  More than likely I'll be busy tomorrow, so if I'm not on here during that time, maybe someone can help run the calculations as described before in this thread (I don't think I updated the OP in that regard yet).

So here's my tx id; I updated the OP with it there for people who don't know how to verify people have paid yet...

Code:

How many blocks shall we count after 12 PM to calculate the results, or is everyone ok with just the first one after?

Edit: I also updated the OP on how to calculate results

Lol, ok... Well just know that I can work it out whenever and can be able to tell who won the pool no matter when.  We all just need to decide if we are splitting the pot for the winner of the first half and the second half/final score; or just have one winner for the final score.

Also, I think I'm going to try and get up earlier and do the calculations then so I don't have to worry about it when it gets close to me having to go to my SB party I'm going too.  So let's make the deadline 8 AM EST and so that way 100 blocks can pass in time for me to do the calculations around noonish... sound good to everyone?  If we don't have enough people to fill out the table, who is wanting to split the rest of the grid with jwinterm, explorer, and I?

Edit: Here is the new deadline countdown

THX JW! PM me your PP email address and I'll send you the $50.

If he gives you those and you win I'm gonna have to hunt him down and bitch slap his ass!

Whichever one gives me the 7's !!!

I see nothing wrong with the first block after 12pm EST.

I see nothing wrong with the first block after 10pm EST.

I think we are going to have to do 8 AM, or just an earlier deadline in general... just because I want to do all the calculations and post them up here before I go to the SB party I'm going to that night.  I need to wait for 100 blocks to pass before I can assign everyone a square.

I ninja'd that 10 to a 12 lol.

Anytime you want, I don't think anyone has any issue with what time you call as long as it's before the block!

Its not looking like the pool is filling up, and I don't have time to monitor it so I'll just send 0.5 XMR for 25 squares.
