Raise the bet limit for the arena

That way you can bet more money, and if you lose, it hurts more, but if you win; the winnings get divided by all the winners equally, with 10% going to the winner of the fight. For instance,

dourht
Krillik
Gideon

bet that chavez is gonna tool on chieg

they all bet 3k

so the pot is 9k

but someone, terra, bets on chieg to win, she bets 4k

miraculously Chieg wins

terra gets 11.5k, chieg gets 1.5k and the 3 losers get squat.

I suggest a 5k betting limit.

The original limit is in place to make rigged fighting near useless. Its occured in the past. Maybe it can be raised, by it won't be by much.

ok, how about 1k then?

The system needs more refinement first. We could now use the pkill rating to implement "odds", and give the "House" a pool of money, so money can't just be "created" out of nothing.

Ie, pkill rating of 500 vs 1000, the house will give you more if the 500 wins. But again, rigging could occur. (Just like in real life)
