Bounty's seem pointless?

[jlo_xyloto]

They should make it Double or Quits then. You bounty another player. You kill them, You get your stake and the points back, for example, bet 100, get 100 and your 100 back. You die, you lose the 100, this could be another feature, like "Rivals" or something, just thought the feature and concept has more to offer.

The problem with getting your points back plus the 100 is that you could easily bounty someone in leather and gain an extra 100 points for nothing. This would prevent obtaining tons of points unfairly.

Once you bounty, you lose the points automatically. Whoever kills the person gets the points bountied and only the points bountied.

To make it more of a risk, there would be something like you suggested:
If you decide you want the points back, you could try to kill the player. But, if they kill you (the person who bountied them) they earn the points because they killed the bountier. Plus, the bountier (you in this case) loses an extra 100 points (or however much you bountied). This gives the bountied player an incentive to go after the bountier. If, however, they win the game, they receive all points bountied on them.

Sponsoring is giving players items. Bountying is a recent addition where you bet points on players.

I prefer throwing bounties at people, not lottery tickets.

In case that was unclear, my point is that I'd much rather put bounties on people (as a spectator, give my points away to whoever kills the person I put a bounty on), than have this be some sort of lottery system where I bet an amount of points on a person I can easily kill, just to double my points.

I said no doubling points. Read my post!

My post didn't have a quote in it, which means I wasn't actually directing my post towards anyone or anyones post. My post was just speaking out to everyone, not you. And in this case, it was about the entire concept of getting double points. kthxbai

It should be like a gambling system,say there's 4 players left, and I think I can kill someone before anyone else does, then I could gamble 100 of my points to try and win 200

Sorry but this could be way too easily abused. Let's say you're approaching a player with absolutely nothing and you know you will win the fight. You immediately bounty all of your points on the player, 1200 to be exact. You kill the player, and WOW, now you have 2400 points for killing someone who didn't even have a weapon.

No just no.

Okay, in hindsight there are problems, however there are problems with any idea. If it could be worked on and navigated correctly, the concept could be very dynamic and make MCSG stand out in another way.
