Bet cancel/increase
So, here I was, betting in a tourney, when my friend bets on a match and no one counters. He loses his bet, which reminds me how on a betting server an op would cancel all bets if there is no counter. This gave me the idea; well, the server should auto cancel all bets after the frame limit, if there's no counters! So here I am...what do you guys think of this idea?

Either way, counters or no counters, whoever you bet on either wins or loses. If you made a correct bet, you get your tc. If you made an incorrect bet, you lose your tc.
Yes, but the TC just disappears, the difference is nobody wins anything, which is pointless.

In that case betting itself is entirely pointless. No one is forced to counter, and no one is forced to refund your tc in the event of no counters or a draw. That is your risk when you decided to place that bet.

If your server operator is quick enough he can type /cancelbets and all the bets will be refunded. However, that is basically it when it comes to getting your tc back.

Aren't we all inexperienced at first? What about those people who make their first betting servers, know the basics but mess up when it comes to the rare occurrence that is a draw. Leading to angry players and the person trying to get into hosting these servers becoming discouraged and not wanting to do it anymore.

So really when you think of it like that is it REALLY necessary when there are other better methods of sinking tc that don't require luck or a lazy op?
Just my opinion here.
...I don't know how to sell stuff :/

Like I said, their fault for not being bothered to learn the commands.
Usually when their is a draw everyone is shouting '0MG CANCEL BETTS NO COUNTER PLS!?!!!1111 TYPE /CANCELBETS PLSLSPPSLSPSL'
Majority of people who host bet servers know all the commands and refund the bets on a draw if they want to or not. I doubt a whitebelt non-alt would start a betting server.
Hattersin wants that.
