Hey everyone!

I just thought I'd reward those of you who visit the forums by putting together a little online racing league for those who are interested. :)

Its very simple. I made a modified version of Chicken Jockey that is playable only on my computer. The game works like the real version of CJ, except I pick who races in each event. I created another little program that randomly picks the racers so I can tell everyone who is racing in advance, and what their records are.

You won't get to see the chickens' attributes, so at the beginning you'll be picking them based on their overall rating. Later on, the chickens' records will give you an idea who to pick.

I'll give everyone a some time to place their bets, then I'll run the race and record it using a recording program. I'll upload the race to my site so you guys can watch it.

I'll keep track of everyone's cash and results and make them viewable after you watch the race. There's a catch, though. If you run outta money, you're out of the game! Maybe I'll incorporate a little XCash pot and who ever has the most money after so many races wins the pot.

So, if you're interested in joining, e-mail me and let me know. I'll cap the number of people at a certain number, which I'm not sure of yet because I don't know how many people will see this. :) I know how many bets I'll be able to handle though.

So right now, I just want anyone who's interested e-mail me. Once I've decided there are enough people, I won't accept any more e-mails.

I'll set up a form for the betting soon.

Join away!

my theory is:

I'm a terribly lousy gambler and i lose a lot. So i'll just keep the money I have and hope for the best...
Unless only a few people do.. Then I will...

Ah, I should have been more clear. :) The money we will use to bet with will not be XCash...it'll just be fake cash, like in the actual game. What I meant by the XCash pot was everyone could put in like 10 XCash and whoever has the most money in the game gets the XCash. But that was just an idea. Or I could just give 100 XCash to the winner at the end of so many races.

No worries! I just made sign up through e-mail because I didn't want the topic to be spammed with short join messages. :) But your addition has been noted!

I soooo want to be in this, but Im afraid I'll forget about it.

This often happens to me. I'll get super excited about something and then less than a week later it completely left my mind. Maybe at a later date or in the next league or whatever.
