Last year's Super Bowlero was pretty fun... let's do it again, shall we?? Cool

RECENTLY UPDATED: 1-30-19

Here's how to play:

There are 100 "squares" and people can buy up as many squares as they want.  What each square should be worth is still to be determined and I will be up for any recommendations.  The X-axis, in green, will be designated to the Rams and the Y-axis, in blue, will be designated to the Patriots.  When you declare you want to purchase some squares, make sure you declare what square(s) you want in coordinate form (X, Y).

When you pay the total amount for the squares you want, post your tx id on the thread and I will update you as paid.  I will be talking to Jwinterm to set up a wallet for everyone (if everyone is cool with jwinterm holding as escrow, I certainly do.)  Then you can make your picks on the board if you'd like based on the X and Y coordinates if you'd like, or just tell me to randomly assign them.  I will then erase the numbers on the X and Y axis's and do a random number generator to mix up the numbers.  Please let me know if this seems fair, if not I am always up for better ideas on how to handle this.

Official Countdown Timer

I will update the OP more when I figure out how to draw the numbers for square randomly that isn't a total pain in the ass, like last time, where I organized 100 of the slots based on block hashes... If anyone has any simpler ideas, please feel free to share.

THINGS WE NEED TO DISCUSS
1) 0.1 xmr/square ok with everyone?
2) Jwinterm as escrow ok with everyone?
3) Easier way to randomly pick squares for participants?

Sweet, I’m gonna be asking around to all the other participants of past shindigs and see if we can get a bunch of people. Wouldn’t mind bumping up the per square amount either since Romero has been whoring himself for essentially the price for a bump of blow. He really needs to shape up... Sad

Anyways, hopefully we get this all situated in time! Have any ideas on an easier “provably” Fair/random way to generate picks for people? Last year was an absolute pain doing the block hash thing.

Can do 15 up to 35. Depends on what's necessary.

Alright, have talked to a couple people and they don’t want “team auto draft” acting as escrow. ... Wink

Suggestions?

I can put you down for 15 so that way we have 10 more spots left!

Alright, hhampuz says he’s in for 10. We’ll wait to see if there is anyone else who wants to play, and if not we can either have actmyname take the 25, or have him split the remaining 10 with jwinterm since they both said they were wanting/willing to do more!

I thought we were at the 100 mark, but it turns out I just misnumbered the entries and skipped a number. D’oh!

It is only free if people include a little extra for outgoing tx fees, as it is not coming out of my own pocket
I'll cover that. 0.002BTC should be enough, aye?

Average fees are like a fraction of a penny:

Could just subtract from pot. Or cover it, since it's a fraction of a penny. Or everyone could send an extra tenth of a penny worth of monero Cheesy

LennyCarl!! I didn't know you were still lurking around. Perfect timing.

We gots our 100, fellas.

So are we deciding on MJ for escrow, or are we still contemplating the dilema of the penny/piconero ratio on transaction fees? Smiley

I'm in for 5 randomly chosen squares. But if the field is set that's cool.

First of all, sorry but we are full.  Second, pennies or not, an escrow normally gets paid, so free shouldn't mean giving up anything of his.  Third, I sent extra to cover the fees, so this is now a non issue.  Let's get on with the festivities.  Cheesy

Hey guys, sorry work has been stupid the last couple days. Please contact MJ for address and stuff to send too.

I’ll send txs soon too. If everyone can post their tx hashes on here to log who paid or not would be cool.
