What about this as a possible system?

Hi al i am new here but i like what i am reading. You guys seem pretty clued up so I would appreciate an opinion on a system I have just started using. Well it's actually a choice I need to make regarding 4 variants of the same system. With regards to the bets i will be choosing i am looking at a mix of footy accumulators generating odds of circa 8-1 or/and trebles or quads on Ladbrokes crazy goals ( 2-3 goals per game usually 6.75-1 for treb or circa 13-1 for quads). I will of course be using every single football league at my disposal to choose my teams. Now the system runs a bit like this( I have spreadsheets in excel) starting with a 50p stake i bet on one of the variants mentioned above and then for each progressive bet i bet the previous stake + 30% therefore bet 2 would be 65p with a total for both bets coming to £1.15 and so on and so forth until I win. This would allow me 21 bets with a total cost of £241.99 for all combined bets and my final stake being £53.23 but based on odds of 8-1 this would pay out £506.05 including my last stake so therefore i would win just over 100% of my total stake.I aim to keep going until i have £500 in the bank and then double the initial stake...am I crazy? I mean i am confident of pulling of an 8-1 with accu's or goal crazy within 21 chances. Your thoughts please good people of the world. Oh and thats just one formula, i have slightly more aggressive and less aggressive formulas also...hence i need to make a decision on which one to do. I ran a 50% increase based on the same bank but this only gave me 13 chances to have a win. I won after my 6th attempt and was £20 up although i onyl invested £10 but i feel i ought to be less aggressive in the appraoch and i am now 3 bets into the 30% formula. Thanks and hope that made sense. Oh and please i know of the Martingale system...this is not it but it is however based on similar principles.
