Making it only possible to bet when there is a certain amount of people in game would stop some of the easy cheating.
I would say the minimal being 10 players, seeing it's harder to convince 9 other players to try and rig the point system. And a starting top of 100 points. Seeing that most people lose 20-25 points just by dying to an awp on awp_lego_* when the killer has 1,000 points less than you. Also that is another thing, say some one bets enough points to where they lost all their points making it 25 points when ever they kill some one else seems a bit annoying. Maybe adding a different point system which allows you to bet points that aren't actually used for ranking.

ive been in a couple of servers that had this idea, its really good and fun, if people just lose the round on purpose you'd ban them as it'd be against the rules

idk about that, sometimes I like to just commit suicide just to end the round if i know it's going to drag on for some time.
Then again the plugin could just nullify round draws, and ignore suicides.

Just add a empty store plugin and use the credits for the betting or something. Maybe in the future we can add stuff to the store like a bunch of other csgo mg servers have already.

The issue is that we dont want to clutter the server with a ton of stuff like that, which might ruin gameplay.
(trust me i want it also)

If we did do something like this, we would have to start enforcing a "no-suicide if you lose" rule. i mean if we did any system further with points other than having them we should. It is pretty ridiculous when half the team slays themselves because they don't want to lose points and it would suck for someone missing out on 100+ points they could use for betting if they won.

Well it wouldnt effect anybody that's not betting, as it's not going to take points away.
Plus we can nullify all bets if the players commit suicide.

The only way to fix the rank system is to add a script that -25 points for suicide.

I don't mean for the people betting, I meant that people are not getting points they could be able to bet because the losers are killing in console anytime they might die/lose points. It has been a problem for awhile on the server. People want to point whore and now that there is something that you we might be able to actually use points for, it will become a bigger issue. It totally kills the fun, especially when you win a multi-game and watch as 7 people suicide.

So I like Kris's idea. The point reduction for suicide is a self-regulating rule which is nice.

I would be down with making it so if you do "kill" in console then it would take away X points.
I'm not sure what X points would be however.

The only issue I see is if a player is truly stuck and has to commit suicide they are kind of SOL.
