You could maybe make it like a loan system. Whereby once you run out of funds, you immediately get another £100 for example, however then overall you're at -£100 or something, and you have to repay that £100 to get back out of the red and into the black. Kind of like added gambling to solve your gambling problems. I thought about that, but then that still doesn't really solve the problem - you can still get straight back into the game, so it's not really much of a deterrant, is it? And then, if you lose that hundred, do I loan a hundred more? Another after that? It just ends up being a bottomless pit of funds, which sure wouldn't restrain me! I think missing four betting rounds (or three weeks, whichever comes first?) is probably a fairer 'punishment' - I'd certainly be more put off going nuts by that. I was just thinking that so then you're in minus figures, so people know you're last, type thing. Maybe wait 2/3 weeks then give the £100 loan?

But then the Leeds fans will accuse me of being insensitive!

But then the Leeds fans will accuse me of being insensitive! Haha. Basically, having to wait that 2/3 weeks is punishment, but also having being given more money, just means you've gone into an overdraft or something. Almost like a normal overdraft system. Except you can't go into your overdraft for a couple of weeks.

Pretty much everyone has placed a bet on Real Madrid, and they're 2-0 down. So everyone's going to lose this round unless something serious happens to change that game!
