Idea: Allow players to make small cbill bets (5k max probably) on things while they are dead.

Most generally which team will win and have a multiplier depending on which way the bet goes. Cap at 2x gains.
Examples:
Enemy team has 10 people alive and your team has 6 people alive.
If you bet 5000 that the enemy team will win at that point you get 5000*(6/10) = 3000 cbills if you are right.
If you bet 5000 that your team will win you get 5000*(10/6) = 8334 (rounded up).
If there are 10 enemies and 2 people on your team you get 5000*(10/2) = 25000 -> 10000 (max cap) cbills if you wager your team will win.
If there are 10 enemies alive and 10 allies alive it's 5000 either way.

Not enough of a cbill amount to incentivize people to throw a match, but enough to be fun.

It's an idea from when I played counter strike source. People would bet t all or bet ct all while they were dead.

I personally bet time all. It usually wins.

See...what would be the result of such a mechanik except satisfying the need of some players to fiddle with stuff instead of watching and learning or at least thinking about what they did wrong that they died early.
There are already enough twitchy push push push boys and girls out there that first run headlong into their doom and then get salty and discurage their team because they where the ones that sucked first.

And now you want to reward this kind of behavior with the ability to bet on the other team to win while they continue to salt alt over their own team and eventualy even getting rewarded by winning their bets on a lost match that they caused to be a loss for their own team.

WTF ???


If you feel punished for having to wait for others to finish because you played bad and died first you are right. In most cases this is the fault of the respective player that died, sometimes its bad luck ... oh well sh.. happens.
