Default Shoot People, Make Money

Kwari

Anyone think this will ever fly? Obviously, hacking will be a major problem if this ever gets off the ground, but if the company has a financial stake then they could monitor the games 24/7 and make the haxxor's bankrolls go bye bye.

Whatever the case, I'd be surprised if the mumbo-jumbo flew.

Check it out. There's even someone even posted about online poker and it's legality in contrast with this project.

Sounds like it'll be strictly for the hardest of the hardcore. No luck element = scrubs stop playing immediately.

Sounds impressive. I wonder what the stakes are though and if there'll be different "limits".

Sounds like a way that is about 1000000000000 times worse than any other kind of gambling. I could easily see kids draining their parents credit cards on this.

Money distributed per shot? I'd like to see it on a per kill basis.

this isn't a completely new concept-- there was a similar server which paid out per frag or something of the like. can't remember what it was called and certainly never tried it, but i do remember surfing the forums and seeing a lot of complaints about spawn campers.

I just thought about how sick it would be to have your health represented by $100. If CS were like that, omg.
