But cheating is encouraged.
Do you at least think the odds were calculated right?

Yeah, hate to say it though, but the JLA has a lot of heavy hitters with the Martian Manhunter, Superman, and Ion, and the Outsiders have only one Metahuman.

Alright. The JLA has 2 to 1 odds. That means they've got, according to Gargan, the best chance of winning. He expects most people to bet on them . . . and at 2 to 1 odds, every bet is worth double in the pay off.
To lure people intop betting on other teams, and therefore make a profit, he assigns the other teams increasingly higher odds, dependiong on how likely they are to win. Take the Tiutans. Where a bid of $1 on theJLA yields $@ if they win, that same $1 bet on the Titans, should they win, os worth $5.
Hypotehtically speaking.

Theoretically, if they won? Yes. we treated it as serious, and not just RPed ninja

A word of advice, Gargan. How the teams stack up will have nothing to do with their power level whatsoever. In fact, the BoP should probably clock in at 2:1.

Does that factor in sabotage and cheating? Say . . . you wanna work for the Scorpion Venom? I was never THAT great at odds to begin with . . .
