 Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - Brave OW < 57.5m
Techinically, I think this would go in the BO games but....I want people to actually see this.
I've grown a bit tired of BO lately, so I'm trying to spice things up.
The idea is to have a bet every week in which I make a BO claim and bet the rights to my avatar AND rank. If I lose the bet, the winner can decide what my avatar and rank shall be for a week. However, if I win, I get to decide what their avatar and rank shall be. Of course, the avatar and rank change must still be within the rules of KJ but anything else is fair game. If a loser fails to comply to a bet, the mods/admins will intervene (at least I assume they will).
I'm only willing to take one user, one bet a week. But I'm hopeful that people will be interseted in this idea and start making their own weekly bets.
My claim this week is...
Funny People will open to over 36m OW
If you are willing to bet your avatar, please state it in this thread. First come, first serve. Note though that once you agree, the bet is binding. No backing out.
Oh, and please respond before 7PM EST.

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game
Done.
Alright, this week's claim:
G.I. Joe will break 23.5m on opening day
Excel is ineligible to bet as he just won last week. He will be eligible again three weeks from now.

for real mag, for this to work, there has to be some risk. I wish I had used this pic instead:

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - G.I. Joe 23.5m+ OD
why would H bet against something I agree with, perhaps a 30m+ wager

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - G.I. Joe 23.5m+ OD
Look, I aint going to make a claim I don't believe in just to get someone to accept.
Now, if you feel that you don't like my claim, you can offer a counter-claim and I will see if I am willing to bet against that.

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - G.I. Joe 23.5m+ OD
G.I. Joe is basically in the same situation as Fast and Furious and TF2 were. Lack of buzz (on here at least), and idiots who simply want it to fail but get a huge slap in the face as OD estimates come out.

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - G.I. Joe 23.5m+ OD
If you're so confident...I'll bet you that G.I. Joe will make UNDER 24m OD...because I have more faith in under 24m OD than over 24m OD.
I mean, I think it'll be big, but I don't think its a lock for 60m+ OW and could easily see it do in the low 50s.

I may be very confident, but my Esther avatar is too awesome to risk.

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - G.I. Joe 23.5m+ OD
Hold up Groaning. Was that accepting the over 23.5m claim or the under 24m claim? I'm down for either one but I just need confirmation.

You should be safe, groaning. I don't see this going over $17 million opening day. (Though admittedly not confident enough to bet my avatar  )

 Re: Magnus' Weekly Avatar Betting Game - G.I. Joe 23.5m+ OD
I'm betting against the 23.5M+ OD. But I don't really care if I win or lose, I was just really bored today and then I stumbled upon this thread.

I was really bored when I created this thread Okay, so the challenge has been set between Groaning and I. If Joe breaks 23.5m I win. If not, Groaning win.
