Welcome to the Forumopolis Dirty Downs, now horse racing has been one of the sports among the people who really like racing. And in most racetracks there, there is another oppurtunity, to bet! Now each race will consist of 5 horses, in total there are 15 horses that live at the FDD, but only 5 can compete in a race. Once you want to place a bet you are immediately given 500 fake dollars. You can place as much as you have.
Bets you can place:
Bet to win-staking your money that the horse you picked will win
(formula of what you will get back if you win-half the money you bet X 16)
Bet to Place-staking your money that the horse you picked will get first or second place
(formula of what you will get back if you win-half the money you bet X 8)
Bet to show-staking your money that the horse you picked will make 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place.
(formula of what you will get back if you win-half the money you bet X 4)
Horses:
Rudolph, Not a cow, Glueboy, Neigh-Neigh, Pegasus, Loves Carrots, Dirty Doug, Typhoon, Green Fury, Superhorse, Thomas, lil' cheese, Payday, Footsteps, The Sitter
Special convenience (pm me about what you want to do):
Security-protection of the chosen racehorse $150
Steroids-boosts for the chosen racehorse $50
Weights-to slow down chosen racehorse $40
Poison-immediately kills chosen racehorse $200...poison should be used rarely in races, if you do it too often you will be banned from the tracks 1/4 of a year.
Drugs-to confuse chosen racehorse $100
Cripple-cripples chosen racehorse $80
Loan Shark:
Since I'm busy enough with the betting and specials, I'll be taking applications if you want to be the loanshark. The loanshark is given ultimate loaning abilities, if you need a loan of fake dollars just ask the loanshark, but you need to pay the loanshark back eventually, and there will be a 2% intrest rate on the money you owe, race by race. If your debt reaches the 3,000's, you will be banned from getting any more loans until the entire debt is paid off. Any payments the loanshark is given he/she can use in the tracks.
Horses competing in today's race: Not a cow, Green Fury, Footsteps, Thomas, Pegasus
Race will begin when 12 people have placed bets.

I placed it in a huge long paragraph again didn't I.
Well, I'll try to explain it better.
5 Horses will be racing each race.
You can...
Bet to win on a horse-if your horse comes in first place you will get back 8 times the original fake money you bet
Bet to place on a horse-if your horse comes in first or second place you will get 4 times the original fake money you bet
Bet to show-if your horse comes in first, second, or third place you will get back 2 times the original fake money you bet.
You can also use some crooked strategy (pm me about what you want to use and which horse you'll use it on):
Security-protection of chosen horse-$150
Poison-kills chosen racehorse-$200
Drugs-confuses chosen racehorse-$100
Steroids-strengthens chosen racehorse-$50
Weights-slows down chosen race horse-$40
Cripple-cripples chosen racehorse-$80
Poison should be used rarely, if you do it too often you will be banned from the downs 1/4 of a month
Loanshark: since I'm going to be busy with betting and crooked strategy I'll be accepting applications through pm if you want to be loanshark
Horses in today's race:Pegasus, Green Fury, Not a cow, Footsteps, Thomas
Okay, and good luck, something tells me you're going to need it.
