So guys, we have two prominent members here who are going to be having sleepless nights soon, the screaming, nappie changing, cute and cuddly type.

So the deal is:

500,000 gil to buy entrance. You pick a date that you think the baby will be born on, we have two babies on the way, so two chances of winning, unless of course they both arrive on the same day which will make someone a very rich man indeed. I have emptied out my bank account specifically for this purpose, the winners will receive exactly half of the total amount of gil in my bank at after both have been born, including interest. I wont be keeping any interest for myself.

The only clue you have to go on is that both babies are due in MAY.

All entrances must be sent to me accompanied by a PM stating the date you have chosen. You are allowed a maximum of two dates at 500,000 gil each, and if the date you choose is taken already I will ask you to choose again.

Pool stands at:

21,283,267,891,800 Gil

Gitano
Where is my PM and my moolah?
Its cool teh dad's obviously have first choice biggrin.gif
RenegadeNukes
I'll play.

I vote 15th May.
Gitano
Gotta get the money before that date is yours!
CrEaTi0n
Okay i dont enter then. Dont have that much moola sad.gif
RenegadeNukes
Gitano, you said May only....

I have also voted twice mate.

Mr. Magic Matrix
I will join in and aid the Alliance Of Khaos guild's attempt to secure the money

Gitano i have sent in my 2 votes and my 1 million gil
hunter
hahaha APRIL FOOLS IS ALL A JOKE!!

Gitano
Haha tongue.gif

And I said the only clue was that the babies were both expected in May, babies are premature all the time, so hey, don't cry if you lose!

CrEaTi0n: Im sure cyfer and I could lend you some money tongue.gif
maybe Sadist will pitch in too, seeing as he is rolling in teh moolah
Mr. Magic Matrix
What if no-one wins?

Can it go to a random person.
RenegadeNukes
Any chance of letting us know your cash...
Psycrow
Donated the million already. I'm thinkin Apr. 18. And May 12.

Go Baby go!
Gitano
4 million gil so far, and we only have a few entrants, so its going to be BEEEG like teh BEEEG KORN BITES
flaco46
May 13th and 21st. I will get you that money shortly. Oh, by the way, I too am going to be a father next year. We are due on March 11th. We will be finding out the sex next Tuesday(please be a boy!!)

CrEaTi0n
Hey congrats flaco. I am also hoping for a boy wink.gif

Keep us posted on how it goes!
millennia
lol

I have nowhere near enough money to bet here but i know what date i'm picking tongue.gif
cyfermaster
I'll sponsor CrEaTiOn. I vote for the 28th April for both babies. smile.gif I will send you the moolah later Gitano.
Gitano
Millennia: since your teh dad, we will give you a free date, like CrEaTi0n, Just because you arent going to be sleeping for the next 6 years biggrin.gif
W@RP@T}{
Can I vote 4 times I.e. 2 for each baby? my guess is 28th April for both and 11th May for both

2Mil on it's way wink.gif
cyfermaster
you can't have the 28th. THAT'S MINE!!!
W@RP@T}{
Oops, great minds think alike

ok gimme 29th or any day free within 5 days of the 28th
Fishfly
guys you got it all wrong... Creation's baby is gonna pop out earlier than Mill's baby so he'll be the boss biggrin.gif
Gitano
27th and the 30th ok for you Warpath? Im afraid I already had the 29th biggrin.gif

Oh and by the way, voting for a day gives you the rights to that day for both babies, you dont need to vote for the babies individually.

So Warpath, you have a million back in your pocket because max entrance was set at 1mill tongue.gif but you still get two days for that million.
And Cyfer: you can still vote for one more day biggrin.gif

Flaco: I havent seen any money dude, sorry, no moolah, no date.
CrEaTi0n
lol we should set a limit as to how many days you are allowed per baby tongue.gif
cyfermaster
I think the limit is basically 2 days. you get both babies for that day, not just 1 baby. so you choose 2 days, and basically have 4 chances of winning... well 2, but 4 if you think about it... hehe. May 12 then Gitano. and of course the 28th. smile.gif
Gitano
Duuuuuuude, 12 of may is taken by psycrow sad.gif

Guys go look at the first post in this thread, its a list of the days with who has them so far:p

Oh and by the way, if you guys want to make some cash selling days between yourselves thats fine by me, just PM me and Ill change the nick tongue.gif
cyfermaster
okay 13 May then. yay for me. hope it's a friday too. biggrin.gif
hunter
hot damn I have 62,872,806 Gil
cyfermaster
That's nothing. tongue.gif Moolah has been sent Gitano one. biggrin.gif
Gitano
Done.

How is our interest looking over there bro?
millennia
I'll take the 19th of May. Not the EDD but i'm hoping it follows the same time factor as Tyler tongue.gif
Heart of GOLD
How do i get points to play
Gitano
We have another taker, Flaco joins the running!

Heart of gold: you have to be playing Atackshop to be earning gil, so unfortunately until you have enough posts to gain access to atkshop, and then enough gil to enter, Im afraid youll have to watch from the sidelines!
BUUUUUUT, the births are still many months away, so keep going!
RenegadeNukes
G-Man can we please have more than 2 votes. Cost is no object, i have enough to throw around like confetti

How about 15 million for the 3rd Vote
cyfermaster
I think we should leave it at 2 votes until closer to the time. If say by 1 month to go, there are still free days, then we can look at giving more votes?

Sort of unfair that. What about the ppl that don't have enough confetti?
RenegadeNukes
I shall grant you little bits of paper to play with
cyfermaster
shame...
millennia
In that case then i think your votes should be cast to the trash...

hmm.... I can out bid renegadenukes quite easily. Maybe I can buy his days from Gitano?
RenegadeNukes
Now that would be unfair. If you want my days, you can buy them off me. smile.gif

Nothing wrong in forking out for the 3rd Vote, but stealing other people's days is just plain mean sad.gif

Probably could, but i have got cash though
cyfermaster
By getting a 3rd vote you are taking a day away from someone who could potentially still vote. I see no difference.
RenegadeNukes
Okay, we have what 60 odd days to choose from

And how many people have got the cash to sign up, it isn't easy to get 1 million on intrest alone if you don;t have a lot of money to start with

Only 8 people signed up so far and 4 of them did not have the money and had to be funded by others

We could use your argument for the entry price as well,
cyfermaster
How many months do we still need to wait though? people may get enough gil by next year.
RenegadeNukes
Could....

I don't see my 3rd Vote doing any harm anyway

Their are not exactly a shortage of days to choose from.

Look so far 16 days out of 60 have been used

Lets assume that everyone can throw 15 million at it for the 3rd Vote (My offer for it, highly unlikely that many people will have that lelve of cash)

and then it becomes 24 out of 60 which is just over a 3rd of the days taken.

What is the harm
cyfermaster
the point is. IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN NOW. why should the fact that you have extra cash give you preference over other people?
CrEaTi0n
Can I change my date wink.gif
cyfermaster
lol.
Gitano
Everybody stand up and give Nukes a round of applause!!

He has very graciously donated 20 million gil to the prize pool!

An no he wont be getting a third vote, and no he wont be getting his money back, just to teach him that just because you are stinking rich, doesn't mean you should be privileged, and because I feel extra specially mean today biggrin.gif
