Fat & Blokes Pubbington Capital LLP aka SPECIAL SE SYNDICATE
X-Posting from the XV Vote Thread:
It's possible marknfw just absolutely hates the other options and refused to vote for one of them 😃
That's exactly right. Tired of losing, so I'm done voting on **** I've never even heard of before without a compelling argument for it in the Main Thread.
If losing a fraction of £20 affects you so much you can have my gifted share and I’ll step away, as long as you stop being a baby back ***** complainer who takes it out on the syndicate. To remind you, this is a fun group activity. And there is no such thing as a “lock” in sports betting.P.S. :
Proposals for this weekend/later are open gogogogo
I haven't forgotten about Lakers-Mavs over, will put it on tomorrow 👍
Our bankroll is now at £144.08
£5.85 on Mavs-Lakers over 231 total points is ON @ 10/11
i think something we've had that's been missing from the last iteration is that everyone spent time giving humorous writeups on their reasons for each proposed wager - i think it both helped with the quality control and made it so we didn't mind the losers because it was a narrative we could all get behind rather than a proposal we voted on despite not quite understanding
Anyone have anything for the upcoming week? Will have to be an emergency proposal instead
Probably too late to get 8 ayes, but I'd like to propose that we take Conclave to win Best Picture tonight based on an article written by our own beloved Alex Jacobs. +225 at DK, +260 at FD.
I haven't seen Conclave yet, but I have seen Anora, the favorite. It was good. Funny and great titties, but is a titty movie really going to win Best Picture? I don't think so.
Anora is also likely to suffer from general anti Russian sentiment among the mostly liberal voters. Aye to Conclave.
Aye more bets the better
Ncaa squares pool going on in the OOT section. I'm running it in case anyone wants to invest on their own. Each game is a winner based on final score.
Aye to Conclave
Speaking of maybe if the pope doesn't pull through we bet on the next pope? Or would people be opposed to such sacrilege
Aye
AYE
Think we only need 7 now, i'm the 7th so i'll stick £7 (5%) on
With all those 7s surely that's a good sign right?
edit: I put £7.77 on just to really make sure
Woohoo!
Even the lucky 7s can't help us
We should never have bet against tits everyone loves some titties.
So true
Proposals for this weekend/later are OPEN gogogogo
Athletic Bilbao to beat Mallorca @ 1.6 - Bilbao are doing decent this season having only lost once at home so far so should beat Mallorca.
Alright,
We have Scotland to beat Wales by more than 19.5 points at +115
As well as Scotland and Wales to combine for over 54.5 at +150
It’s the last day of the 6 nations and it feels wrong to not have any bets on it
OOT is running a March Madness squares pool. Similar to Super Bowl. Final score of every game pays. I know $25 is a large portion of our dwindling bankroll but I think it's a worthwhile endeavor.
63 chances to win!
