Welcome to Tapology's game for all you gambling addicts out there! This game was thought up and brought to you by Wolfmanhowl so we can all thank him for this awesome game! I would also like to shout out CashBrewyn for coming up with the formula to calculate the wins in the spreadsheet, as well as R1zla for designing our kick ass championship belt that you see below. If you have any interest in joining contact myself or Wolfman.

How about an award for bad bets?  I lost all 5 bets on a 5-man parlay a few weeks back and thought, "There should be an award for that".  A participation ribbon or something.

The only other thing I was thinking of was maybe a bonus for getting all of the bonuses

What about smaller monthly bonuses, which you can't use to bet, but they will count towards your total at the end of the season.

@ Black Viking we changed the rule so that whenever we start a new season we all start with the same amount. That way it is more fair for someone trying to win or for new people joining the game

From now on, I will be doing my real life bets in Tapology as well.

I do better here (until I went all in on Diaz for some reason) than in actual betting lol.

Winning big money on underdogs like Struve (vs. Miocic), Grant (vs. Dunham) and Boetsch (vs. Lombard) on Tapology and not betting (much) on them in real life is a thing of the past.

Ok I have the bonuses on each persons individual tab so that as the season goes on you can see which ones you already have completed and which ones you havent. Depending on your monitor you may have to scroll to the right on your tab to see it
