Proposal: Take the Money and Run

Timed out 3-0 with 1 DEF. Enacted by JonathanDark.

Change the bullet point list in “Accusations”

to

* If it is true, the Accused Punter is fined 10 Readies for tampering with a sporting fixture
* If it is true and the Accused Punter placed a Bet on that Sporting Event as part of an Acca, and the Accused Punter has not been fined under this bullet point yet for any Bet in that Acca, the Accused Punter is fined an amount of Readies equal to the stakes of the final Bet in that Acca, plus any Readies won from the final bet in that Acca.
* If it is true and the Accused Punter won any Readies from a Bet on that Sporting Event that was not part of an Acca, the Accused Punter is fined an equal amount of Readies to how many they won from the Bet, plus the Stakes of that bet.

 

If we change the fine so your bet becomes null and void, rather than simply erasing your profits, it solves the whole Acca-conundrum.

Reducing the base fine a bit to counter act the fact that this will probably cause the overall fine to go up (as you now lose your original bet too)

I see no good reason to lower the cost of tampering with events you aren’t betting on.

@Bucky Would support adding a “If it is true and the Accused Punter did not win any Readies from a Bet…” clause that increases the fine there a bit more
