Reputation / vBookie Changes

[Ste]

From today reputation is not linked to vBookie and instead vBooke will use vCash as betting currency with these points being won on the new Fantasy Cricket game starting soon.

Initial vCash levels are now set at the same as reputation levels and any rep. won or lost on vBookie has been removed from reputation levels.
If you had a rep of less than 100 you are automatically allocated 100 vCash points to use.

A link will still exist between vBookie/Fantasy Cricket and reputation 1% of all vCash won being added to reputation levels. With each new vBookie event started, 25 points will also be donated to users who have no points left.

Its quite complicated so feel free to ask any questions here.

So if you lose vCash....will you lose your reputation points with it?

[jazz]

no you can gain reps but u cant lose them

[Prakash]

I had 417 reputation points earlier, now I have 849 reputation points. From where did I got those extra 432 points?. Actually I dont mind those extra points though

[bharat]

I think those were reps which u lost in vBukie.

it was re-credited

[saisrini80]

is it true that the lost points of vbookie is being re-credited. if true, then i received 131 points back but i thought i had lost more than 131 points on vbookie....

Your new reputation is basically what your reputation would be if vBookie had never existed. In other words, if your overall vBookie activity made a profit, your reputation is now lower. If your overall vBookie activity made a loss, your reputations is now higher. You may have lost more than 131 points on vBookie, but this will be off-set by the points you won on vBookie.

Examples

Previous reputation: 1000
Total vBookie winnings: 250
Total vBookie losses: 100
New Reputation: 850

Previous reputation: 800
Total vBookie winnings: 20
Total vBookie losses: 100
New Reputation: 880

Yes that is correct.

Hopefully there will be some use for this 'vCash' in the future. (eg purchasing of items at a forum shop)
