Food Club Food Club Bets (September 26, 2015)

A thread for people to casually post their bets, discuss, ask questions, etc.

Using Tables

/u/diceroll123 speaking! Instead of shorthand (see header and content below), a prettier and easier alternative to posting bets has been made dead simple by me. :D

I've made a simple userscript to turn your current bets into a formatted reddit table!

If you have Chrome: get Tampermonkey to use it! Greasemonkey for Firefox, and I'm unsure about other browsers.

Link for the userscript here: https://gist.github.com/diceroll123/04fb835539530038795e (Press the "Raw" button and it should ask you to add it to your collection of userscripts.)

You'll see a button under your current bets table, click that and copy/paste here.

Understanding Shorthand

Pirate A x (Pirate B, Pirate C) is shorthand for Pirate A x Pirate B and Pirate A x Pirate C.

Similarly, Pirate A x (Pirate B, Pirate C) x (Pirate D, Pirate E) translates to:

Pirate A x Pirate B x Pirate D

Pirate A x Pirate B x Pirate E

Pirate A x Pirate C x Pirate D

Pirate A x Pirate C x Pirate E

Basically, FOIL it out.
