Looking forward to your summary, @flameburst. I'll have to get mine together, as well...

Nice. Reckon we can get a few together and once we have a critical mass of punters we will be on our way.

Just an extra idea. How about using a tag like "puntersclub" instead? It is actually a common term for a lot of people and its kind of what your looking to create here. It could be the foundation of a betting community here on steemit.

Good thinking, it was one of the things I hoped to get feedback on the tag name.
How about steempunters ? I will think more about it and change it tomorrow.
Thanks

Thats good too. I think if your longer term goal is to create a community of punters then your tag should represent that. Happy to help out in getting the idea going.

Indeed, the plan is to have steemit more friendly towards serious punters.

This is just to first part to get this going, I thought about it and will keep the tag as it is for now. I expect many to try this out after I promote it some more, but few will eventually be able to handle it. You can't just post random bets and get upvotes, record keeping is mandatoy and no difference is made between winning or losing records.

The ones that manage to keep it up can be moved to an auto-upvote system with higher upvotes and a different tag like steempunters.

Sounds like a good plan. Count me in.

I support Steempunters, as well... Cheers!
