I've found myself taking five classes this term. I wanted to slack off and only take four, but teachers keep telling me that it'll look bad if I only ever take four classes. Oh well. It's not like I won't skip all the time anyway. Heh

Clearly, you have no idea what you are talking about. You won't make any money on that bet, so I'm not even going to waste my time dealing with you.

Clearly you don't understand the meaning of the word gamble ;)

Er, no hard feelings of course. Um.

I didn't expect you to bet against yourself, but you're welcome to bet that you'll still be around at the end of the term :3 Just it'll only be about 1.3x what you bet and you won't get it until.. the end of the term, so I think that it wouldn't be worth your time.

I rather expect to make money. The odds if you actually lose are high enough that people will wager, and I won't have to pay them a single GP because I doubt you'd lose, from what I'm seeing on the network. But uh, you know. If you think you're going to be killed, that's good too o_o Well, bad for me, but...

*cough* Seriously, no hard feelings?

Perhaps not, but I seem to understand the meaning of the words courtesy and decency. Opening bets about a person without their prior consent is rather rude, wouldn't you say?

And thank you for your offer, but I don't gamble. It's an uncouth habit I'd rather not have.

I certainly don't think I'm going to be killed. I say with the utmost confidence that there is no one on this campus- and few people left in my world- who could manage it. I'm being underestimated by the vast majority of people here because I choose not to flaunt my power or use it in the messier and more evil ways that it could be used. (Sacrificing one hundred students and turning this city into a den of zombies under my control isn't really my idea of entertainment. People are much more amusing when they're not rotting.) I simply doubt that you will make much money because I seem to have frightened away most of the would-be vampire killers; I haven't seen one in over a day.

See above comment about not wasting my time. This is hardly worth having hard feelings over.

Ah, I see. I hope people do bet though.

I am sorry then -- didn't mean to offend you by gambling. I just figured since it was all over the network as well as students around campus talking about it that it was public enough. Haven't had any bets though, I can still cancel the offer to take wagers. >.>

Best of luck with the whole ordeal though!

Your journal is ugly.

(Usual time?)

[makocitygambler]

Orange is a beautiful color.

And yeah, usual time and place~

[nutty_necro]

No one's trying to kill Sierra. They wouldn't be foolish enough to suffer hers and my wrath.

[bluelitany]

Where were you last night? Seven or eight people tried, but I frightened them all away.

[nutty_necro]

[ooc: the mun was helping unconscious!Serge and Kidd last night XD;]

I was doing some research. Drache was supposed to be watching you. Bloody dragon. Let us hope for their sakes that they learned their lesson, and no one else tries it.

[bluelitany]

I've been keeping those types away (ones who knew the mechanics of vampires from my world, at that) for longer than you can contemplate the meaning of.

[half_mystic]

What rules d'you run for poker?

[makocitygambler]

Texas Hold'em. I play Omaha too, but more people are familiar with Hold'em, so we'll play that

[half_mystic]

Mm... Barring any unexpected unexpectedness, I'll see about showing. Sounds interesting in any case. And no worries, I wouldn't consider cheating.

I'm unfamiliar with Texas Hold'em, but that's what the internet is for. Besides, I'm suspecting it to be something similar to Scrap Rules from back home.

[makocitygambler]

Excellent. Hell, come a little early and I'll teach you what you need to know. It's pretty similar to basic poker, but there's shared cards in the middle and you only get two cards in your hand.

And you should tell me about Scrap, please :D

[_ultros_]

MURAAHAHAH!

I'm in for poker. How many hands can I buy at once?

MRUAHAHA!

[makocitygambler]

One. :P

And you'll sit on six of them tentacles while you play, too. Although I am tempted to run an "Everyone's cheatin' an' the best cheater wins" game, but that's not this game, Squiddy. (Octy?) Not that I'm implyin' ye'd cheat, but the more handstentacles you have, the more likely it'd be, right?

And you're the octopus everyone's been gossipin' about. Interesting . . . do octopuses play any interesting card games where you're from?

[_ultros_]

MRUAHAHA!

fine, fine.. I'll just play one.

This cheating game.. that sounds pretty good though. Last time I played like that, I ended up with a tripple royal flush. Ahhh the good times.

Anyway, the game we always played was called 8 arm. It takes 8 arms to play, but its a lot of fun. Its like of like Pai Gao, but with 8 hands per player, and 32 decks. The payouts are really nice too.

MRUAHAHA

[makocitygambler]

Good.

And an obvious cheater wouldn't win. It takes finesse. Hmm, now I'm _very_ tempted to organize this. . .

8 arm, eh? I don't suppose someone with two could work out a way to play as well?
