To start off the betting pool, I'm willing to bet 1 shiny cred, I'll be the winner of this game. Completely do not think i actually will win, but hey, maybe I'll be the surprise underdog :D

On who? Me? Or yourself? Warning you now, betting on me is a pretty unsafe bet :D

That sounds like you're trying to place a bet on "whoever ends up winning the game" (that's how I would place my bet). I'm not quite sure if that is a valid betting target, though.

Wait. If I bet on myself and win how do I get paid?

I’ll bet 5 credits I’m the winner

how I intend this to work is, that whoever ultimately wins, whoever bet on that person will get the creds that were placed. So far there are 6 creds being betted on folks, and only 2 betters, so if you won, you get 6 creds, so you keep your 5 and my 1. Now if multiple folks bet on you, so let's say kim changed his to bet 50 on you, then that's 56, so you each would get 28.

Course, I have no way to enforce folks to pay up on their bets, this is mostly just for fun, likewise, I have no problem for folks to make fake or joking bets like a few have done.

I bet 2 credits on Meliva.

It's possible to steal, sure, but it's gonna be very expensive, I belive. Thus, I bet that Mel gets to keep it :)
