Wait, shouldnt gambling on games you could throw be illegal? This sounds mighty suspect to me and should be banned. The league should look into this for sure.

[WIP]

I don't use nor know how to use the casino so I can't have an opinion. Honestly just listen to whatever HFFO thinks he probably knows what's up.

As someone who does not have a site job, I do not interact with the casino. I am fairly neutral to it overall. I know users who love it and others who say not to touch it. I am not sure what could be changed to convince me to start playing it every season other than a gross amount of expendable income.

Always seems like the users who have an absurd amount of money say they don't have anything to spend their money on, so why not bring out some more things to bet on. Daily or weekly point leaders? Or a lottery that users under a certain level of total money earned can enter to try and boost their bankroll?

It would be really fun to be able to bet on each player's point output for each season, but this does lend itself for abuse and seems like something that would be very labor intensive.

Fortunately for my real-world bank account (and unfortunately for my virtual one), I am absolutely not a gambling person. To be honest, I opened the Casino page, saw 'over-under', and had a small crisis because I really don't get it at all ?

As such, I'll leave the recommendations to others who understand these things more than me. I'll be over here carefully cultivating my TPE instead.

I would be fine removing the casino entirely because it tends to be something thats posted for like 2 days prior to the season and i usually miss the task since im not on the site on weekends. Therefore its a not a huge deal to me. If you wanted to expand anyway, I would say you could do some more wagers around goals for and against, maybe individual projections for some of the star players each season (or those expected to be stars based on tpe) but that would be more work for people to be setting odds. However i hear there is intense competition for site jobs right now, soi maybe someone would be willing to do it.

To say the least, I'm very disappointed to not even be the first goalie off the board. Here I thought people would want the proven guy who runs the sim.

On the bright side...

I GET TO GO TO NEW YORK! FUCK PORTLAND!

I am not a fan of the casino at all, I am not really a betting man, nor do I even understand how it works. As a result I think of it as unfair.

The casino to me is intimidating. It isn't just the fact I have that worry in the back of my head of "HEY! YOU CAN LOSE YOUR MONEY!" but also I don't really understand much in terms how to read the odds, or even what it means to bet on the over or under for something. Maybe some instruction could help for noobs like me?

Instead of having casino, $4 million should just be deleted from my account every season. This way would be much more efficient and wouldn't get my hopes up.

I don't really like betting in real life, and I'm doing it in here only because I'm good haha!
So no I don't think we should bet more, use your money on cards!

I kind of like how casino is now. Would definitely never want it to go away. I suppose smaller weekly bets could be cool for some, but personally I wouldn't be interested since I'm always so broke :kek:

I haven't touched the casino in years, and that'll continue to be the case. It's just not my cup of tea. Now, a real casino? That's a different story.

RIP Dangel. See you on the other side, brother
