    My prediction is that we'll lose 6 this year. No more, no less.

    You should join the super-secret, underground betting pool going on. The over/under on 6 is pretty interesting.
    Bets are soap based

    What soaps are accepted as bets? Will a puck of Col Conk suffice lol?

    The super secret, underground world of soap betting is based on Arko-currency.
    Traditionally a stick is sliced I to 10 even, thin slices and each slice is refered to as a an Arko Dollar (AD).
    Common use of said currency in betting scenario would be "I got five ADs on under" - in a situation where the over/under point total for drop-outs is six.

    Off-AD soap bets are allowed and then commonly referred to as 'Lessers' - regardless of soap.
    Example: "Got two lessers on the over now that @mrchick signed up"

    A Lesser needs to be of the size af at least two ADs and is always valued as one AD.

    He runs numbers for a Turkish soap oligarch when he's not sipping finely roasted arabica, cornering the LeResche market and producing photo illustrated razor commentary. A man for all seasons.

    Has the lined moved or are we still looking at six? What does it cost to buy a half point?
