    Credit Gambling Suggestion

    I have two suggestions for a better user experience in the gambling hall.

    Firstly, it is nothing but annoying to click on an existing wager only to be told that the wager has already concluded, and even moreso when you go through this about three or four times before just starting a new wager yourself. So my first suggestion is to have it notify the pending wager has concluded but in addition, to automatically place a new wager for that amount so the user doesn't have to keep going back and forth.

    Secondly, it is equally annoying to place a wager only to have someone or multiple people come along three, four, five minutes/etc later and place new wagers for the same amount rather than take your pre-existing wager, and even moreso when there is a lot of activity and people keep taking the other, newer, wagers, rather than your older one. So my second suggestion is to have it so that whenever someone makes a new wager, if there are any eligible pending wagers, one of those is taken instead of creating a brand new wager. The only way existing wagers would not be eligible would be if they were from the same person (You can't wager against yourself).

    I think if these two are implemented, there would be an overall more streamlined experience with the credit gambling hall.

    1st one is dumb imo, cause you either go for already existing wagers, or make your own wager. I would find it rather annoying if I clicked a wager, and it would take me to the place a bet page or auto betted for me.

    2nd one is even dumber. Let people place lots of bets if they want. Don't force people on betting on that one bet.

    And I don't think these 2 suggestions would really work well together and ultimately would just cause more irritation.

        Also why not have it so you can gamble a random amount of credits like, type the number of credits you want in to the box.


        E.G. if i wanted to gamble 143,878 credits?

                Re: Credit Gambling Suggestion

                +1 on the multi-bet

                and +1 on the specific amount box

                Also, there should be a random bet, where by clicking it, it will bet any amount that is equal or lesser to your current credit count. So, for example, I have 71047 credits. I click that button and it bets anywhere between one and 71047. Or if you're not willing to risk that much, there could be a modifier where you could tell it to bet anywhere between x and y. (For example: bet anywhere between 20000 and 40000).

                  Re: Credit Gambling Suggestion

                  Yeah, why not to put roll on some dices so long? Rolling dices would be nice. Person who bets, rolls two dices and gets 8. Person who accepts bet, rolls dices and gets 7. Person who accepted bet, lose. It would be funny in that way too. ^^

                  EDIT: 1+ for multi-bet.
                  I will catch you.

                      Why did this get bumped? This was not a necessary bump.
