seems like the bet reset should just be 100, whoever gets out in front and wins the first bet have an even bigger lead/advantage if other people just go back to 50

also maybe add the betting links to the individual games in the calendar section; it is kind of hard to find the betting links.

Just bumping this to get some more input from the community etc.  I think so far it's been going well.  Ashalar, your comment about adding the bet link on the calendar was fantastic.  Thank you very much.

As for 50 vs 100, I think 50 is fine.  However, I do think you were right about it resetting every time you go broke being necessary.  It hasn't detracted from the fun. 

Anyone else with comments and thoughts on the feature it'd be much appreciated.  We'll plan to do a revamp and improve it for the next season.

Thanks!

seems like there hasn't been a lot of participation from people who lose their bets, I still think the resetting to 100 instead of 50 would be better to encourage people who have lost their money to keep trying and also be able to raise the stakes for everyone else

Well the reason you would be removed from the starlings is if you reach 0 (you will be reset back to 50 as soon as you visit a betting page)

However, I don't see you as having bet in Match #15 (the one Lightweight won),
I do see a bet on LW in Match #10, but he din't win that one

Not sure if there was an error that din't register your bet :/
