I just started watching 2 days ago, is the crashing and all that happen regularly? Because in 3 days the game was stuck in a match for 2 hours, the site was down for maintenance and Mugen crashed.
[QUOTE=Mein Bratwurst;41847040]This could because your browser is lagging behind the stream. Just refresh and it should be ok. Remember the timer is in real time so you need to place you bet before it's locked in.[/QUOTE] It was okay yesturday. Still having the problem.
[QUOTE=keda009;41849231]It was okay yesturday. Still having the problem.[/QUOTE] I'm actually having it too. Maybe his update messed up the site or something. [editline]15th August 2013[/editline] MASTER SAKURA IS REAL AS FUCK
Man >.> i need some help telling apart REALS and FAKES. Hard to do mah uber list if i can't tell em apart. How does real Dhalsim and Superman looks like? Could someone inform me ?
What's up with the real and fake thing? Like if a character is fake it's because they arent the original character or something?
[QUOTE=RedRibbonMurderer;41850584]What's up with the real and fake thing? Like if a character is fake it's because they arent the original character or something?[/QUOTE] Real and fake mean whether or not they're good, not if they're clones. Like if a character was doing great he'd be called real and if they're doing bad they're fake. Or at least that what it seems to me.
Tournament got moved to Saturday
That Marisa heal is unbearable :suicide: [sp]Kuma is a bear[/sp]
[QUOTE=Gwoodman;41851248]That Marisa heal is unbearable :suicide:[/QUOTE] always bet on 2hu you should know this by now
holy shit he needs to fix the betting. i went all in on samurai jack and it didn't take :(
Won't refresh. Refresh it. Bet on Akiha, bet didn't go through. SHE WINS. Great update Salty!
Hotaru v Patchouli: WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT Some people got some HUGE upset money. I mean huge. The odds were 1:376 or something. Seriously, did that version of Patch just have 5 health or something?
I'm never gonna get out of the salt mines at the rate of these upsets EDITED: never mind, thank god for Captain Caveman
website down, what the hell?
Whatever Salty did yesterday, he's still working on today. The site has been buggy all day.
Wow holy shit. Saltybets got fucking huge. This kind of pisses me off. Nobody will ever know of bipsonbets. Bipsonbets was the originator of the idea behind FGC gambling, the fucking guy behind saltybets pretty much ripped everything off of bipsonbets and gave NO fucking credit at all, it is a sad tale. Oh well.
Man, I quickly make a random all in bet with 684 and go do something else. I come back and its this: [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/wat253.png[/IMG] I wish i knew what I bet but wooo. edit: Actually it was probably the melty blood girl.
He bets random and wins almost 10k I bet to a godtier character and have an upset. :suicide:

Let me preface this by saying I support anyone 100% for them taking this betting idea and making something big happen with it. I always have... [/quote]
there's been nothing but upsets I haven't had anything over $100 the past few days
I am required by law to go all in on Dan Hibiki at all times. [video=youtube;guNyNiu7wJM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guNyNiu7wJM[/video]
I'm hoping orochimaru wins for the bigget upset ever. :V Even if I didn't bet on him. [editline]15th August 2013[/editline] Nevermind, we got a winner.
Is anybody else not able to bet? I bet but once it calculates all of the bets it says I didn't bet. Refreshing doesn't work. [editline]15th August 2013[/editline] Wow ok now it works :|
Why is it that adblocks been recently beginning to mess up saltybet? [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/aaa49.png[/img] This happens after every round and I have to pause adblock+refresh to get it to work. If I do pause i'll get a twitch ad and I really don't want to subscribe because I already bought damn membership. So has adblock been messing people up recently?
Did they increase the framerate? Everything's way smoother suddenly for me.

If you read it it says:[/QUOTE] Bipsonbets was the original betting service for betting fake money during twitch streams of fighting games. It was a script created by some guy named bipson (from the fgc in-joke "bess bipson" quote from Chris Hu the commentator). The script would run on the nycfurby twitch chat during tournaments, known as the "poverty chat" because it was an alternative to having to pay $5 or whatever these days to even chat in a stream chat during a tourney. The poverty chat became this kind of community of people who refused to pay money for subscribing to just chat during tournaments, so everyone felt really proud of this guy who coded this whole bot system in the twitch chat for betting and it was kind of like a "fuck you" to all the lame dudes who actually payed. So as the bipsonbet idea is developing in this "poverty chat" during streams and more work is being done on it, some guy creates basically a replica of it called saltybets, and pretty much steals every idea bipson had implemented already, except saltybets runs off it's own website. So basically saltybets explodes into the mainstream of the rest of the fighting game community because it wasn't just a poverty chat thing and saltybets starts getting all the fucking credit for the whole idea and features that came along with it. This basically pissed bipson off really bad because every idea he and this community put in together to make it better than saltybets, you would see saltybets add that same thing in afterwards cause he was probably in chat just looking to get ideas. So bipson quit and shut it down. It was pretty genius though for saltybets to start doing MUGEN betting, but it's just lame that the smaller guy got no credit for being the originator seeing as how big this got, thats how things go though. It just kind of makes me mad because I got to see the original creation of this whole betting system and got to pitch in some feedback along with the rest of this ragtag community, only to have the idea be replicated and then that getting super popular.

If bipsonbets was looking for mainstream attention, they should have reached out and grabbed it. Sounds like it's just someone mad that he didn't realise his idea was marketable.
Time scam michaelangelo made me 74k YES!!

Is the chat broken for anyone else? No amount of refreshing is getting it to work for me.
