I'm surprised that "Wrestling" isn't an option up there since it is just as big as MMA.

Probably for the same reason that it isn't widely bet on in the real world...!

It can be a huge improvement enable it to pulling events and results from some "results website". Maybe for a 1.5 version?

This is intriguing. What if the "results site" was a XF site running Sportsbook, which separate wagers and/or results could be pulled from?

I was using MyPoints, but from what I understand the owner had like a mental breakdown or something. I saw that BD Banking hasn't been updated since March so I'm not sure if that's a safe bet. What is everyone else using? Is the Sportsbook Cash System good?

I have used [bd] Banking since day 1. There are zero issues with it. It works perfectly, and has for well over a year now. I used it so my members could still earn money for posting, and I have it being deposited into the sportsbook_cash field (which is also used with Stocktrader). Those 3 work seamlessly together.

Some queries from me please.

Does this work great for many individuals in a race (eg. many racers in a race, some racers part of the same team, each race part of the season) etc.
Can I place a wager on the winning racer, the winning racer for the season?
Wager on the winning team for a race (based on race points awarded to each racer), the winning team for the season?
Is a discussion forum thread created for each race, so that strategy and "pysch-out" stuff can be done? (If you prefer that instead of, or in addition to, comments on the event). If so, is an Announcement post made to the thread for the winners and winning amounts?
Are sportsbook events integrated into XenAtendo for visibility on it's events calendar?
Is an announcement thread created in a nominated forum advising of the winners and their winnings?
Can I do XF notices applicable to those that haven't wagered/bet at all? For those that did last race in the season, but not yet for the coming race and it's only 2 days away?
Email notifications where the user is registered for a season, but not yet placed a bet for the coming race?

How are others promoting the usage of this Add-On on their site? A fancy looking notice with graphic enticing people to join in and participate?


Thanks.

Most of what you asked can be answered by using the demo (which you have full access to). On the demo you can create events, add outcomes, place wagers on those outcomes, change the event status' and settle the events seeing every bit of frontend functionality available.

Events are specifically designed to handle multiple outcomes, so yes, it works great for listing many individuals (each being an outcome).

Each Event has its own Comments section with basic core xenforo functionality like Likes, Alerts and newsfeeds. Discussion Thread integration will be in the next major version (which is under development right now). You are able to enable/disable both comments and discussion threads per category... ie, you could have a category that only allows comments for events created within it and you could have several with discussion thread integration and some with none.

No on XenAtendo and I am not sure I am going to either. Kinda waiting on Mike and Kier to see what their stance is on a default calendar system for XF.

Winners are sent an Alert and a newsfeed item is published. They can also check their "My Wagers" area for a detailed view of their wagering.

I don't have any User Critera added to the notices system. I MIGHT look into that in the future, but won't look into anything that isn't suggested in the appropriate forum at the support site.

Don't understand your email question about a season.

There are sidebar modules, XenPorta Modules, [bd] widget framework widgets and a simulated node module, plus Newsfeeds that can all drive traffic to an event.

The best thing you can do is mess around with the Demo. The Pre sales thread has a lot of info in it as well as the Sportsbook forums on the Support site.

This remains one of the top add-ons on goTitans.com.

The ability to repeat a previous bet without having to enter everything again from scratch would be a great feature.

Thanks for the responses, appreciate it.

FYI, I attempted the demo before asking here. I read http://addons.nfljunkies.com/threads/sportsbook-demo-info.8 and followed logon details from http://addons.nfljunkies.com/threads/sportsbook-demo-info.8/page-2#post-382 but none of those worked for me. I only just now realised it's my normal login to your site that I need to use to be able to access the demo. Sorry.

One thing that would be nice for people copying/pasting odds is to make an "odds" box just one input box, rather than 2, and interpret the contents to be able to extract the odds from either:

9/7
10 to 1

Might be a little complicated to completely interrogate all combinations, but a regex would help.

This would allow faster creation of an event's outcomes as the odds could be copied from somewhere a lot faster.
