You then posted:
I will take one of two wagers. The 25 for $500 or a different bet. Produce 30 such misuses in 48 hrs and I will never post again. Otherwise you ship me $500.
This is followed by a little back and forth about the number of posts and whether it is PFA or DD and PFA, but never is the notion that both words need to be present in a single post discussed. you then posted this saying the bet was booked:
25 posts but 15 have to be from here. $500. You have 48 hrs
AFTER a side discussion with Crowe Diddly you then posted this to HIM, with the first implicit mention of your new terms:
Both words misused in the same post? $100 for 12 in an hr. Go!
Crowe responds with:
No sir, not both words in the same post; one word used incorrectly in a place where the other word should be used. No silly angles here. 12 cases where you use then OR than incorrectly, when the other word should be used. Is this agreeable?
And this is when you suddenly change the nature of your bet with Vegas (publicly anyway):
Nope, because that's a different bet then Vegas and I have. Our bet is for both words in the same post. His words, not mine. I merely accepted his terms
If this is the language you are using tgo book a bet with Crowe why weren't you as specific with Vegas????
Notice how in every single thing you are quoting there is always the mention of errors? Its always multiple, the terms discussed always points to there needing to be more then one. This is precisely in line with the bet offered, IMO.
Its plural because the number(s) before it is 15 or 25!

Your original terms were for a panel of 3 impartial judges to rule on it. I say you have 1 day to find your panel and let them rule
You say there was never a mention of there needing to be both errors in the same post, I counter with there was clearly never a mention that only one word must be incorrect in each offending post. Absent either of those clarifications we can only fall back on the original offer.

where you have used those two words incorrectly?
This cant be any more clear to me. The bet offer was to find posts using those two words incorrectly. Not one of those words, not either of those words, but those two words.
Really, then why did you resond to my initial post on this by saying that there are multiple interpreatations??? Spin away sir...

Damn it Steve-O, why did you weigh in before you could be accepted as a fair and impartial judge?

The first level headed person to weigh in acknowledges that the bet can be interpreted multiple ways. Although he ultimately sides with Vegas, he attempts to mitigate the loss amount by acknowledging that the bet was not clear and concise per both parties.

The fact of the matter is that I accepted the bet on the premise that both words would be used in the same post as this is precisely what was offered. Steve-O acknowledges that this is a legit interpretation.

Druff, T-bags, Shaun Deeb, etc please weigh in so I can make my decision and get this thing ended.
Now you are saying something completely different: Your new arguement is that the bet was crystal clear???????


FFS kid, didnt you try thing angle yesterday? The bet is crystal clear to me, but obviously is being interpreted differently by differing parties (youreself included). Even I am not naive enough to sit here and proclaim the bet is clear to everyone involved! Its clear to me however, and I will stand by my interpretation.
It's not an angle when I post every damn word you said.
Then why didn't you say that when you responded to my post??? You seem to like to rewrite history. You FULL response is posted above it clearly shows your agreement with me. You never say, "while I don't agree with this" or anything along those lines.It fully shows that I agree with you in reference to MY interpretation. I also acknowledge that you personally think there are other interpretations in addition to my interpretation. How is that hard for you to understand? You think there are multiple interpretations and I agree with one of those.
Because that's not what you said. Again you have reading comprehension issues, and are simply trying to rewrite your own forum history...

I highly recommend you become familiar with this quote attributed to Mark Twain: "If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything." You sir have a lot to remember at the moment


I disagree that my original reply states that I agree with you on every single interpretation. I do agree that some people are interpreting this bet differently, that much is obvious. I never stated "I dont agree with this" because I do agree that there are seemingly multiple interpretations. I dont have to agree with each interpretatoin to acknowledge that they exist. I dont have to agree with the points of both republicans and democrats. I would be foolish to disagree with someone that says both parties have differing views!
****EDIT___________________________________ Posts are getting wonky***

Then why have you been arguing this? That Vegas agreed to your interpretation of the bet? You can't keep your story straight: A couple posts back you said:

This cant be any more clear to me. The bet offer was to find posts using those two words incorrectly. Not one of those words, not either of those words, but those two words.
Now you admit that there are multiple interpretations:

I do agree that there are seemingly multiple interpretations.
