@waiguoren v. @cooks1
1. National Popular vote margin with Clinton/Trump will be <= 6.4% for Clinton
2. Waiguoren- For Cooks1- Against
3. 11/09/16 (Day after election day)
4. Signature Bet
5. 11/09/16 to next US Presidential election day
*If Clinton simultaneously wins the popular vote by over 6.4%, but loses on the electoral map and Trump is elected on that basis, the bet will be void, as Hillary did get over 6.4% of the popular vote, but she did not win by 6.4% of the popular vote

Waiguoren, I'd like to have a clearer answer on the margin. This is just Trump's votes to Clinton's votes, correct? We could get different results if we factor in Johnson, McMullin and Stein.

You guys be crazy. Quote this and agree if you want it official. @cooks1 , wait until @waiguoren clarifies the thing above so I don't have to ask you again.

EDIT- added clarity to 1 after Waiguoren's comment

This has been added to the OP

-If a punishment doesn't begin at the start date in #5, the amount of time will remain paused until it begins. For example, if someone was suppose to change their Av on 1/1/16 for a one month avatar bet and they don't begin until 1/3/16, the loser must keep the av until 2/2/16.
 
Also added this to the OP since two bets included a void clause. We will just make that an option #6 in the official bet format

6 (OPTIONAL) A situation which makes the bet void that isn't clear with the content in 1 & 2. This needs to be very clear if included.

National popular vote total discrepancy

. I agree.
 
@waiguoren , just when I thought Rex Kwon Doh upstaged everyone, you come in here and make a four year sig bet. Much balls, very guts!

@Quipling v. @Cint
1. Who wins the 2016 US Presidential Election
2. Quipling: Hillary will win. Cint: Trump will win
3. 11/09/16
4. Signature bet
5. 11/08/2016-01/20/2017 (Day after election to Inauguration day)
*In the event the election isn't determined by normal means of the electoral college, the bet is void.

I'm going to just add a note now to the OP mentioning delay of adding sig or av also freezes the timer of the punishment so you don't have to mention this everytime.


Quipling mentioned that you can specify more on what the sigs will be or you can keep it open ended as it is posted now. I need you both to quote and agree for me to make it official

For some reason I had a dream I made the bet with him and I was like "why the hell did I agree to four years". I never even did a bet until this thread so four years would've been extreme on my end

Out of curiosity, does the 11-9 big news have to do with an idea we once shared our ideas on having to do with debate?
Click to expand...

There are plenty of ideas in the works but I still haven't figured out a good plan with the debates yet. This likely is a bigger deal IMO. It could be more pointless than a debate though. I'm still unsure what the reaction will be.

We are talking yuuge news viva. Yugge
 
@waiguoren , in your bet, 6.4% is exactly 6.4%? Like 6.38% can't be rounded up since you only should one decimal in your point. I just wanted to clarify this.

Rounding is not really relevant. Even if you round 6.38 up to 6.4, I would still lose the bet. Because the margin has to be over 6.4

At 6.41, I would win the bet.

<=6.400000% and I win.

Ex 1: 6.41% and he wins.
Ex 2: 6.40% and I win.

Interested in an AV bet? Loser keeps the winners choice of an AV until Inauguration Day?

What happens if waiguoren loses both of his open sig bets? Is there a conflict on the timing?

I would be alright with him having a two line sig for the short period he would have to pay me if he loses our bet. Or he could put mine for his location. It will be short.
