The One and Only Beta Release Pool!

Alright ladies and gents, in an effort to lend a bit of festivity and fun to an otherwise emotionally charged topic, I hereby present the Beta Release Pool! Here are the current dates and their current odds, feel free to include your bets. All in good fun, no real money...unless you're that kind of person, and I swear I had nothing to do with it.

Any Day Left In July--100:1

SEPTEMBER (technically after BCon, but n00bonic put so much money down I have to humor him ;) )

1st-15th--2:1 //n00bonicPlague$250,000CBills;
09/09/09--100:1 //n00bonicPlague$100,000Cbills;


I've got 50 imaginary bucks riding on the 5th and the 12th. Any other participants?

Oh yeah. SCL staff aren't allowed in here because they know more than we do.

This may also double as an NDA Done pool, but then the SCL staff are really not invited...unless of course they want to toss their 'votes' in and maybe give a little clue? :D

Oh, and if this belongs in the off-topic discussion, feel free to whisk it away along with my apologies.

My vote goes for after Blizzcon, my reasoning in the other thread.

I'm betting the beta will come out on the period between August 13th to August 20th. When in doubt, shoot for the widest margin (and the reasoning behind releasing beta during or after BlizzCon strikes me as somewhat questionable). :cool:

Come now, put some moneys down! The best kind of money to bet is the imaginary kind!

I increase my wager to include 50 bucks on @BlizzCon. It's even money, but a safe bet...maybe.

So I've got 150 bucks going! C'mon, line up your bets! :cool:

I bet over 9000 internets its will be after blizzcon... somehow I get the feeling that theyll show off battle net at blizzcon, then will release the beta at the tail end of August. Gotta keep expectations low.

Put me down for 1st-4th. I'm an optimist. 3500 Space Bucks.

The 12th. 50 imaginary bucks. :P

500 minerals 200 gas on 13-20th

I can't in good judgement make a bet... I'm sorry guys >.<

You were among those on my list I figured wouldn't bet but I was hoping would :D

Oh well. So, for those who've been put down, any wagers you'd like entered? So far SaharaDrac, Eligor and Kaiser haven't put down any imaginary monies on their ideas. :)
