Has anyone tried setting up prize fights, and running a book on the odds?
I figure someone could set up prize fights in the arena between martial artists, with no armour, weapons, or healing shots allowed. Implants and nano tech allowed, just because it would be too difficult to police. Apart from that they fight naked, greek style. Level differences, track record, (and any info about implants etc) would contribute to the odds.
For really high level fights the prize money would of course be very high, as it would attract lots of high stake bets. Could even get some of the bigger guilds to sponsor fights, as they would be sure to attract a lot of publicity. It would take a bit of organisation, and probably wouldn't start making big bucks until it was very well established.
Any thoughts? I just feel that there should be more ways to lose my money through frivolous gambing in Anarchy Online.
