The Syndicate

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Tue May 22, 2018 4:33 pm Uh not to shit in anyone's cornflakes but my math (admittedly, I did do some rounding) has Nutella in last place, not Speedchuck.

Speedchuck bet 11 chips on Horse 1, giving him .1485 chips in return. He also bet 1 chip on Horse 4, giving him a total of .174.

Nutella bet 5 chips on Horse 1, giving her .0675 chips, in addition to 5 chips on Horse 2, which gave her .1275 chips. Combine those for a total of .195.

The result stands.

As of now, they are both under BTSC lockdown. No one else can contact them via PM or other methods, and they can't contact anyone else. The other 7 players still enjoy Open BTSC.

The Death Match will be posted shortly.

I took it from the original post that remaining chips were discarded.

Apologies. This is correct.

if I'm understanding the rules correctly, only the top two horses give players payouts, right?

That's correct, yes.

what happens if the top two horses have negative payouts?

That's impossible. Here's how the payouts are calculated:

insertnamehere wrote: ↑Wed May 16, 2018 10:31 pm The odds for each horse will be calculated as follows: For a number of chips lesser than or equal to 18 on each horse, the payout if the horse wins will be (22 - numbers of chips currently on the horse). For example, if a horse with 10 chips bet on it won either first or second, each player would receive 12 chips for every chip they bet on the horse. If there are more than 18 chips on a horse, the payout if the horse wins will be ((4 * .9^(the number of chips on the horse - 18)). For example, if there are 20 chips on a winning horse, the payout will be calculated by multiplying 4 times .9 to the power of 2, which would produce 3.24 chips for every chip bet.

does nobody get anything?

It's certainly possible that the payouts could be very small for the winning horses, but at least there is some form of payout. Losing horses only make players who bet on them lose chips.

then who would win?

Whoever has the most chips.

This should be up to date. DH was right about everyone except Nutella.

Horse #1 has become so oversaturated with bets that if it wins, players will receive less chips than they bet.

Yep.

Yep.

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Thu May 17, 2018 3:39 pm I took it to mean sharing hints is fine, as long as you don't screenshot the original PM or literally use the forum quote/forwarding feature to prove that it came direct from INH.

Yep, that's correct.

When put a face to INH, I imagine he’s just a Korean David Lynch

That’s quite flattering, thank you.

It’s a mixture of both. TBH, it’s probably 70% the show and 30% me. They actually didn’t say how the payouts were calculated on the show, so this is my best guess.

Does this mean that string-betting three chips a chip at a time on one horse changes the odds differently than a single bet of three chips?

No. Payouts are calculated after Round 12 based on the total number of chips.

You can bet in any round, however, you cannot bet on a horse when it reaches the last three spaces or the “NO BET ZONE.”

Bets cannot be withdrawn.

ROUND ONE

Also, players cannot directly quote or send screenshots of my hints.

Scotty wrote: ↑Thu May 17, 2018 10:40 am INH, will we be privy to knowing if someone buys hints behind closed doors?

If someone wants to buy a hint from me, they must post it in the thread. All other Garnet transactions will be secret, however, player Garnet totals will be revealed at the end of the Match.

Another quick note about the raceboard: When a horse reaches the "20" space, it counts as having finished the race. There's no weird special "FINISH" space like there was in Middle Race.

Multiple people can buy each hint, by the way. DH and Golden aren't now the sole owners of these hints, unless no one else buys them over the course of the game.
