I applied the loss to your account first, which left a remaining balance of 50g due. This amount has already been posted with the FRA for payment.
I will add another 500g to your account per your request.

Looking for the door...
40J, I suffered a humiliating loss, defeat, whatever in 1505. I thought I was going to lose by a UN vote, but I never got a chance to vote. I didn't much like being stuck on an island. I like room to grow.

Me neither... The inept manservant that generated that starting position is long-since fired from the casino.... Hopefully, his replacement will learn from that lesson and make sure that the next game is more enjoyable for all.

There has been some talk about the next version of Play The World and when it will be released. To add fuel to this fire, the casino has started accepting wagers on this topic.
And the wager is...
What Version Number will the next patch contain (current version is 1.14f, I believe...)?
All wagers will be accepted. Simply post the amount and your prediction for the patch number in this thread. The winner will receive the entire pot*. If more than one person selects the winning version number, then they will split the pot* evenly.
Wagers will close the day before the patch is released. For example, if the patch is released on a Friday, then no wagers will be accepted after 11:59 EST Thursday night.
<><><><><>
* total available pot = sum of all wagers less 10% house fee.
No offense intended to those citizens who favor the GMT time zone, but since Firaxis is a company whose headquarters are located in EST, I figured it would be better to use that time zone.

And just what is to stop me from wagering one gold piece, winning, and taking the entire pot of the saps who bet more? ;-) What benefit is there to betting more money?

Good point... I was originally thinking that the pot would be divided proportionately between the winners, meaning if you bet 1g on a certain number and somebody else bet 9g on the same number and that number was the winner, you'd get 10% of the pot and the other person would get 90%.
However, upon further reflection, I think I'd rather make it a set price per bet... and allow unlimited bets, so...
The wager is hereby changed as follows:
You may "purchase" a choice for 50g. Each choice can be used for a single number (ie. 1.14f). You can also purchase up to 10 choices. Winnings will still be distributed amongst the winners in the event of a tie.
