This is not gambling.

Ok, 2 to 1 (edit: even odds, sorry, 2:1 doesn't work) odds on the next day that the number of members visiting ATS equals the American casualty count in Iraq, according to Nerdling (Nerdling, by the way, you're volunteered... ).

Max bet: 50 of whatever euphemism you like for money right now. And please, no "Units"

You have 1 post to place your bet. You have as many posts as you like to tell me how stupid this is, but remember, every time you flame me, I get paid!

I'll tally the pool, and calculate the winnings (if it happens), according to the number of winners.

Pick dates no later than my birthday.

Good luck

Disclaimer: This is not gambling. If you are offended by this, sorry about that. If I had my way, I would be on a C5 heading for Afghanistan at an undisclosed time in the next two weeks, to remain for at least a year. Truly. Mods, go easy on me Especially you, Banshee... NO Chairs, PLEASE!!!

Casualty count as of now: 701

Members visiting as of yesterday: 728

Odds of winning: 1 in 42 (or 1 in infinity, if the winning event does not occur. How ya like those odds?)

Yessir! Your denars are certainly good here...

So how many would you like to wager? Since your denars are virtual denars, you have nothing to lose, my friend! I say bet the FARM!

YES! Your bright, shiny, Golden ATS Rings are legal tender in this joint. As are your bones, your clams, ducketts, ends, origami paper, stones, dolares, centavos, firestarters, whatever you like to call them, you can bet it!
