I don't want some backwards hack version of it, you can't expect people to be pausing and unpausing, people begging to pause for longer etc etc etc needs to be automatic, obviously. I thought I was being fairly clear, but you don't really seem to understand what I'm talking about or my problem with the current betting system.
(I don't know what auto-bet is, but if that's just something that always bets a certain amount of tc per match, that's totally irrelevant.)
It needs to work like this.
A round has just ended, a new round is starting.
A message comes up saying "Betting open" or something. A timer is showing the time left to bet before the match starts. At the end of say 1-2 minutes, betting closes. Now the fight starts and plays out as normal.
The current bet system is unfair and simply doesn't make sense. To be able to bet mid way through a match puts anyone who bets at the start of the fight at a huge disadvantage. Sure everyone could wait until mid way through the match, but that's fucking stupid.
The reason for the belt thing is I think it'd be good to have bet servers where only high Qi players can fight, but everyone can watch and bet. More like a spectator sport (unless you have higher Qi). It also gives people with lower Qi something else to aim for, which is always good. It also keeps the consistency of the fights up, so you're not going to have rounds where nobody bets because one guy is a total random.
I'm not really looking for opinions on it anyway, I just want someone to make it. I can pay like 25k or something.
