What is a sportsbook? A scheme where someone will place robux on a team and if the team wins they win more robux back as a prize for picking the correct team.

My idea is to run an OFL sportsbook where players are allowed to place bets (via buying clothing) on teams with point spreads, over unders, and money lines and if you win you get more robux (via group payout), and if you lose the league keeps your money.

A committee would be in charge of setting point spreads and money lines and people will be given opportunites to either do a straight bet or parlays (picking multiple teams to win in one bet with higher upside of winning)

Let me know your thoughts!

Yes but you can make bets whenever

Also we would have restrictions:

Can't bet on the team you're playing on or against

Can't ref a game you have a bet in

This is not against the ROBLOX TOS.

"Gambling/Casino style games and games of chance cannot be disproprotionaly skewed in the game/developer's favor to cause players to unfairly lose."

It's not disproportionally skewed.

I'm down, I'd be into in being in this committee. (btw to USE dev-ex you must have enough robux to even make money, have a place with a ridiculous amount of visits, and link your paypal.)

as much as I like the idea, it's just gonna cause problems

all it takes is one organization committee messup, and people lose a lot of robux and have no way of getting them back
