haha, I saw the flood of emails and had a good chuckle at how stupid he is.

El oh El,

In for whatever hunchcap you come up with.

B) wide open Christmas week hunch (25 picks). This will be $50 or $100 contest with very few rules. 1st, 2nd, and SECOND FROM LAST will pay.

Lol should unlock my thread

Randomly came across a sports betting question, too bad Jim isn't here to answer it for me.

Maybe Larry could help me, but we know he is a sports betting know-nothing.

It might me more of a maths and numbers question anyway, so we propably still need Jim.

Here goes:

The winner of the World Series is the first team to win four games, so the maximum number of games that could be played is 7. You want to place a $100 bet (even money) on your team to win the whole series. A bookie says he will not take bets on the whole series, but would be willing to let you bet on each individual game. Is there a betting strategy you could put in place to replicate your $100 bet?

Gm,

Yes.

ELD,

El D,

Correct!

El D
I'll do both (free money)

GM in the true spirit of JIMMY, all you do is bet $100 and Martingale the dog**** out of it every time they lose...

Guess who made a new account to start that ****ty Titanic thread?

It's clearly becoming time to reopen jmakin's thread.

The titanic thread was funny because he started it in the History forum and then posted "Oh, hey mods, I found a forum that's more appropriate for this. Please delete," and reposted it here once he stumbled upon OOT.

At least that system for 2nd Half bets is still going strong.

If he acted this obsessive around Tak as he does with 2+2 no wonder she went running for the hills

Jim FINALLY DMCA'd his logo off of that WP site I put up. I fully expected he'd do it instantly after I DMCA'd my content off of his site, but no, he was a bit slow on the uptake.

Nope. Not unless Babs gives permission to the mods

You mean not unless jmakin gives permission, right?

I concur.

Larry, nice of you to lock up this good guy's thread for him so he no longer has to come back here.

Err, that appearance must have just happened? It's super weird how hard he flips out at me.

Babs,
Cappin got you down?

lol, he also posted it in ATF

Like, this time I set him off just by saying that jmakin's thread should be reopened? What on earth.
