Those are the exact 2 reasons I only chose one game.

And yeah new players should definetly be assumed not to have bet in previous weeks,so would be on $90 now with the rest of us. This is serious business!

Multi-bets are too hard to capitalise on. Maybe change it so we have $10 to bet, and we can choose how much we put on each game (and whether we want a multi). E.g For the friendlies I could have put $5 on NZ to win, $2 on Argentina, and a $3 on all the other results to be draws.

Just an idea.

Ive been busy today in preperation for this bet. I have:
 
crossed my fingers

walked the streets until I found a coin and picked it up.

Touched wood (first thing this morning)

Wandered fields until I found a 4 leaf clover

Set up a paddling pool inside my front door in the hope a frog wanders in.
Sneezed 3 times before breakfast

Walked into a random restaurant, proposed a toast, then spilt red wine all over the carpet.
Found a ladybug,put it on me,then flicked it off.

Put a dress on inside out (still wearing it,its quite comfortable)

Proposed to several chimney sweeps (2 birds one stone). They're all men,still working on getting married today.
 
Went to a church and threw rice at a couple getting married.

Stole a horseshoe from a horse

Killed a rabbit, cut off its foot.

Had a nap facing south

Made my right hand itch

I've been very busy doing all these things,then this happened

Super 15 this weekend, and the Warriors game to make it up to 8 options available.

For those who havent come accross handicap bets before, ill give a brief explaination.
 
Lets say you select the Highlanders -5.5. You take the final score in the game, minus 5.5 points off the Highlanders score. If their score is enough to win the game, your pick is a winner. If you picked the Brumbies +5.5, you add 5.5 points to the Brumbies final score, if they would win with that score, your pick is a winner.

HIGHLANDERS -5.5 (1.87) V BRUMBIES +5.5 (1.87)
WARATAHS -3.5 (1.82) V CHIEFS +3.5 (1.92)
BLUES -22.5 (1.87) V CHEETAHS +22.5 (1.87)
HURRICANES -5.5 (1.92) V BULLS +5.5 (1.82)
FORCE -4.5 (1.82) V REBELS +4.5 (1.92)
LIONS +8.5 (1.87) V REDS -8.5 (1.87)
SHARKS -0.5 (1.87) V STORMERS +0.5 (1.87)
CRONULLA SHARKS +3.5 (1.87) V NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS -3.5 (1.87)
