...I can't see any reason for a maximum. If someone wants to bet a $1 million donation, that'd go some way towards the costs of our next Annual Moderator Vegas Extravaganza.
For a $100k bet, you'd need an escrow service. I suppose someone trustworthy, with years of presence on B3D, and a ridiculously large post count, could take hold of both parties' $100k and confirm they have received both parties' money. Then that person could not disappear strangely never to be seen again but instead pay the whole $200k to whoever wins. That's definitely a really sensible idea.
I would like to volunteer for this position.
I can assure everyone that I am absolutely not eyeing up expensive hookers and high grade cocaine. I would assuredly not use said money to escape the view from my bedsit:
I sourced that picture as a joke, but on reflection, it's pretty accurate. There are bins around the side of my block of flats, and they're overflowing for at least 10 days between collections, meaning there are regularly half a dozen rats scurrying out of the way when I walk past. If I'm going that way, I make sure not to wear my shoes with holes in the soles because I worry I'll get bubonic plague or rat AIDS.[/spoilers]
