TOPIC: [TTT Suggestion] Betting

Server Name:
TTT 24/7 Minecraft

Suggestion Title:
Betting on people to survive the round

Suggestion Information/additional notes
Since trading is now a thing, diamonds are actually worth something as people are selling nice skins. It would be nice to be able to raise the stakes of a given round for yourself and perhaps make it a bit more fun when you've had one too many innocent rounds.
You could bet on yourself or others

How would it benefit the server:
Could raise the stakes of a round for yourself and make rounds a bit more or interesting if you wish

Potential Issues/Exploits:
Most issues are minimized
-As long as it's done in preround
-As long as if you bet on someone else that person isn't notified.
You are the only person who knows who you bet on/if you betted so its your own fault if you tell someone and then they get rdmed to ruin your bet.
But perhaps a bit of inflation but since a a given person is unlikely to survive the round then it doesn't seem like a massive issue.

Additional notes:

This system was in place already, and as much as I loved it, it was heavily abused and helped cause the inflation of points and made them valueless.

Some certain update caused the inflation, betting used to be a thing 5 years ago aswell. No one had over 1 million points back then.

biggest issue is rdm/teaming. Someone could tell the person they bet on to hide or they wouldnt kill them if they were a t or inno also lets say you do tell others your bet and someone kills them. It might cause more rdm than there already was.

If someone goes and hides in a corner of the map every round its pretty obvious they are teaming and i can't really think of anywhere you could hide in the ttt map where you can't easily be found.

Again its pretty obivous if someone is going out of their way not to kill someone.

I don't think teaming would be a massive issue but if you really wanted to make it extremely unlikely then you could prevent a person betting on the same player twice in 3 rounds or you could disable betting under x number of players say 5 or 10

Not something i personally used but many many people did

bump

Just saying what caused the big millions pumped in pointshop was xgames not betting, and if better did so then its legit very well earned and deserved only problem is exploiting which i honestly did back then NOT FOR LONG JUST LIKE 20 OR 30K but then there is PROP HUNT which is too easy TTT requires skill but this prophunt requires 0 and if someone is only dedicated to prophunt , he will be too rich so make a cap like maximum 10K winnings per day.

Bring back player betting

Honestly loved this before, and for the people talking about the abuse of it and etc, that’s what staff are also there for to notice this stuff happening and reports of it. Should be added back.
