@JSIMP That is definitely a pay-for type of thing.

@Franchise I like the idea of a gold PlayPV, obviously separate from the free PlayPV. Need to figure out how legal or not that is. People gamble with weekly NFL pickem pools all of the time!

Or even the PlayPV could be just one registration but keep the list of "paid" entrants separate.

I'm saying we can leave the registration the exact same, open to public, and anyone who chooses to gamble $5 can do so via the forum.

Highest finisher wins the pool (maybe the site takes a small rake, maybe not).

I know for sure we would have $20 in the pool for Summerslam.

I'm in for "gold" PlayPV at Summerslam.

I think you would need to keep it private to avoid copyright laws. You could make a subforum just for paid players. All players must have PayPal or whatever you want to use to collect money.

My thought was like how MVH said it before: anyone that wanted to enter for $5 would have a gold row in the PPV. The gold rows played for the separate paid for prize whereas everyone was eligible for the regular thing. It'd be just like how ppl do cash league for fantasy football I think.

I kinda wish we could actually get into bed with WWE. Then participation would skyrocket, but the two major things are:

1. We would really need to cleanup forum as we don't run the forum like most sites do.

2. No guarantee WWE wouldn't at some point try to buy Chise out and then eventually it would die because WWE did a game like SW before and it was paid and free and still didn't last.

There will also be a link on the main page to the contest standings but I wanted the info to be here as well.

Kinda sad that two out of the first three to register for Summerslam are non-forum members. Sucks for them if they win.

@Franchise did you make sure to indicate that the highest scoring forum member would be declared winner of the challenge if a non-forum member wins?

Not sure what you're looking at as ALL of the people that have registered for SS so far are in fact forum members. Two of them don't belong to factions but they are forum members.

Also --- I said in the rules part that people need to be forum members. vshadows and truckturner are and have played PPV for a while also.

Also also, this only shows forum members --- http://www.stablewars.com/ppv/contest.p ... +Challenge
