    Just throwing this idea out there. God forbid I should ever bet real money on a basketball game, but playing around betting on outcomes adds interest to the game and the discussion.

    I know it takes some work, and I have no idea how to do it or what's involved. So I'm just tossing it out there to see if there's interest in doing this.

    It shouldn't be too hard, I'll look into it when I get back home and get settled

    Actually, I don't think there is a vBookie for vb4. At least not time I looked.

    It is time consuming, no doubt, and the majority of the posters do not use it.

    That being said, if mods want to use it in their game threads, I don't have a problem with it.

    Note: wouldn't we have to start doing vBulletin credits as well?

    Yeah, we'd need a points system.
