Default GT's First Baby Pool

Well as most of you know..Or atleast I think most of you know Shadow_Link's wife is having a baby..And he has given me the go ahead to have a baby pool since it doesn't harm him, his wife of little Snow/Penguin.... the baby is due in like April..

So would anyone like to partake in this little baby pool.. it's only 100 dblns entry fee..... yeah that's it..Just make sure to pick a dater in April..I'm personally shooting for the 2nd... and not because it's my b-day.. Hopefully Link will be around to tell us when the baby is delivered....

Ok change of plans...

It will cost you 50 dblns to enter the pool....

Everyone will then take a date and make a bet..

All the money people bet will added to a pot...

The person who chooses the correct date will get 85% of the jackpot as their prize

To a very needy cause.....

The Get Penguin His Custom Rank Foundation

Where else?
And for the record.. all members who enter will have 50 dblns taken out of their account on Sunday when Kitana handles all her business

Penguin, that's BS.. you should get dblns for winning, not to enter and give to you.

These dblns have created a monster... and that monster's name is BAB. I mean, come on. Why don't you give 100% of the dblns to the winner? I mean, that is just sad. Do the mods know that you are doing this?

You people really do need to learn the politics of the world.. Let me explain just a little of what is happening.....

Everyone is paying a price to enter into the pool... Since I'm the one taking the bets... I'm the one collecting the money...

Everyone will then pick a date and make a bet... who ever would have won the pool would have got 85% of the jackpot.. since you people don't understand how booking goes... the winner will receive 95% of the money.. I till need to receive something for holding the bet....

And Shooter you have until Sunday to get 50 dblns.. how hard could that be?

Just a question...


If you were given $21 for no particular would you take it? It doesn't matter who would give it to you, family, friends, complete stranger. I'm just wondering if you would take $21 if given to you for no apparent reason...

2 things:

1) BAB, your an idiot
2)It would have been rather nice if you would have told me about it... I'll check with Neo.. but I thought the entry fee was for SITE sponsered contests... At any rate... PM me with the entries when ever so I can do the doubloon stuff...

BTW: you're still an idiot.
