Maybe only the Admin can settle? Or if you make the event, you can't win it?

Well, this comes down to trusting the people you allow to set up events. The top winners are shown for any event so it's quite easy to see if anyone's abusing it. I don't think it's any more of a problem than appointing someone as a forum moderator.

There's no need to make it so only admins can settle though. Just set up a "Bookmakers" group that has rights to create and edit events, but not to play them. That should be enough. Of you really want it so that only admins can settle, then make it so only admins can create events in the first place. =)
