So, I was cruising around some of the programming forums and found a mod (tech speak for a patch or upgrade to an existing product, usually by someone other than the author of the original program) that will let our forum have play money. In place of karma, everyone has a visible bank account of play money. We have this feature on another forum I used to visit when I played ball, and they use it to place friendly bets on sporting events, races, all kinds of silly stuff. It automatically tracks the amount won and lost, and even though it has no bearing on anything, it's just neat to see how much play money you can get.
I can install the mod and give it a test run, or not at all. Just a little something to give us something else to play with here.
For example, I may place a bet with Loopy for 100 Esteban Bucks, or whatever we call 'em on the World Series Game 4 tonight. He takes Cards, I take Tigers. Cards win, his money increases by 100 Estebanos. Just a neat little thing, that's all.
This is a screen shot of what it looks like under your profile, except we have our karma turned off:
Thoughts?
