"ScarletRose: (29. December 2004, 16:05:58) I guess I am still confused here as to how the points work. On two separate plays I played high moves, expecting to get my points back if I was the highest bidder. I have won 500 points two separate times. But, no motivation at this point to bid over 500 since highest bidder doesn't win back the points they bid.. there should be some motivation also in my opinion to get the bids higher then they currently are. This game is going to take forever! LOL"
scarlet. I agree you should get points back as well as 500.
But as for game length....the game will be same length no matter how many points are bid. (as it is now..it wont take longer than 356 days :o) could be quicker though :oD )
I presume Cassius got the 500 for betting highest of 4000?
Can the person who gets the 500 have their bet shown in red or something so its obvious at a glance who got it ?
Is it just me that is surpised by the range of chosen number? I would have expected maybe a cpouple of clumps... very low numbers , very high numbers....but there is a very wide spread all across the board
Sorry Thad, if I remove them...the conversation will be a tad weird, So I think as you have requested this...hopefully Upchuck will go through all his posts and remove the unnecesary words himself. if not, then he will get a 24 hr hide for not following requested actions.
I have taken note uphuck, please refrain from calling anyone Idiot, Stupid, ignorant or anything like that. There is no need for it, and it was you who used the phrase first. I will leave these posts unaltered otherwise the conversation will be ruined.
But in the future please refrain from trying to argue your point in such a manner.
And Pedro, please refrain also.
We will all play the game in a slightly diferent manner, so no-one is any of the mentioned.
Thanks
