Rep Power: 6 | | Update to vBookie, Casino, and Credits/Cash The main thing you guys will notice is that I had to reset all credits to 1,000. If you had more credits than that, please send me a PM and I will increase your credit amount no problem. You will still gain points the same way, but there are a few more configuration option to award people who contribute "quality" content over random crap.
This was a needed upgrade because this credit system will provide a number of new features. Most notable is the new banking system, loan system and eventually you will be able to buy site-upgrades with your credits. (title colors, post icons, smilies and SRM clothing - yes clothing!)
So just keep an eye for this stuff and ENJOY!

Rep Power: 19 | | I like the savings feature... also, are we still able to transfer Cash credits between posters still, since there is a loan feature now?
Also, I just noticed the Lottery, what are the odds on it, do we know?

And, as for the lottery odds. Assuming it isn't rigged (who knows) and assuming there can be duplicate numbers, it'd be 25 to the 3rd power. So, 1 in 15625 is your chance of a jackpot. If it doesn't allow for duplicate numbers, chances of hitting on a random ticket would be 1 in 13800.
The jackpot seems to increase $5 for each ticket purchased.
Can't say on the rest of the smaller winnings, since it doesn't really tell us what pays what. |

Rep Power: 19 | | That was earlier, I had 1,000, and after every positive gambling binge I invested my winnings in lottery tickets... Hey if I win my rate of return on the 470 will be far better than the 492 I have in savings.  gotta look at the glass half full.

Rep Power: 14 | | I don't foresee myself using that savings account too much. They charge you a damn 2% fee on your transfer, and then it only pays 3.5% every 30 days. Then I'm sure you have to pay the 2% just to get your money back into checking. So you have to leave the shit in there for 5 weeks just to break even.
I wish we could ditch that fee. |

That Lottery better come through for me.

Rep Power: 6 | | Well if you had more than 1,000 credits before the switch, your credits are back. Also, I can remove the transfer fee's to the savings which seems harsh and the -2 for PMing.

Rep Power: 6 | | Okay all those settings are all fixed up. Oh and since we are in a down economy I raised the bank interest to 5%. I probably should just make the interest paid out every 7 days haha 30 days is a long as time.
