Is there any chance this will be ready for the upcoming ESEA season? Or is it still pretty far off of being finished?

Not for the first matches I think, but it is not very far too, atm I'm working mostly on details and making sure Steam being down doesn't mess the website.

Hey, in one of your earlier posts, I mean around 7 months ago, you mentioned something about getting help from people? I know a bit of HTML/CSS and JavaScript, better at HTML/CSS, but working at JavaScript. If there is any way I can help I would love to contribute!

Cherry do you have any plans to use a percentage of the bets to fund competitive TF2 tournaments? I'm not saying that you're creating the site for profit, but I'm asking if you've considered taking X percent of bets and then putting that money towards incentivizing comp players in tournaments?

That is so beautiful.
@SLIN it may be a little tricky with betting laws, but I was looking into this possibility and will continue to do so. For now the plan is to give all too charity for now so everyone being can pretend he's a good man.

@mood and bear please add me on Steam and we'll talk :) though I'm abroad atm with just a phone so it may be hard to catch other, but we'll do it eventually.

Hey, I'm here with a quick update.
Website's running great now and there is only a couple of things I need to finish before we take it to the next stage and those include:

  • Handling dupes and reversed trades
  • Fix for additional manual refunds
  • Writing some ToS bullshit ;)
  • and a tutorial for newcomers which is being made by an amazing plex!

I am excited.

MR_SLINCherry do you have any plans to use a percentage of the bets to fund competitive TF2 tournaments? I'm not saying that you're creating the site for profit, but I'm asking if you've considered taking X percent of bets and then putting that money towards incentivizing comp players in tournaments?

Along these lines, could a fraction of the items in each bet be given directly to the winning players of each of the matches? I'm not an economist, but this could be a step to keep players from fixing matches (? if the payout from this is large enough relative to the typical individual bet). Of course this would also motivate people to get into prem / invite and win matches.

I think all prem / invite players' steam IDs are available publicly so something like this should in principle be doable.

I'm curious in general what steps you're taking to prevent match throwing, especially since TF2 has such a small competitive scene relative to the amount of trading.

I think that the % that he takes will probably end up mostly going to server costs.

I'm not going to force anyone into funding the website or anything as I believe that is enough people like it they'll gladly donate or subscribe some perks like a special color of a nickname or more slots.
There are however leftover items after most bets and while I'm going to be initially selling them to give money to charity eventually if there's enough of them and I won't have to worry about Saloon too much I may organize tournaments or just sponsor them.

Oh and actually the thing I came here for: I've got dupes thing working and fraud done, but not entirely tested yet.
