I completely forgot about that. Repo crawfished out of a St. Jude bet. And so did Tuco.

As for Cyber? That guy has been here a long time and has established himself to be a stand up member here. Or so I thought. I don’t know him any better than Data or Iron Chef for example. But if I’d have made a bet with either of those two? They’d pay. Im absolutely certain of it. By all appearances it was an error on my part regarding Cyber. Probably won’t be the last.
Cyber has been here and the other place for as long as I can remember. He's always seemed like a standup guy. Either something happened to him, or he completely gave up the internet.

putting faith in people is fraught with failure.

some men keep their word, some don't.

Truth. Our reputation is all we have however.

That said, perhaps something really DID happen to the guy.

All true.
Bet was made.
If the situation for Cyber is normal he should pay IMO.


It's totally plausible that something in his personal life has taken precedence vs. an internet forum wager.
There may be underlying reasons not known to us.

I am really hard pressed to believe that loosing a $50 bet would cause him to go completely AWOL. Something else must have happened. Hope he is OK but can’t help wondering

want to get his attention?

send him a PM

tell him that you are calling the bet off.

tell him you hope all is well, and that since he hasn't stopped by lately, something must have happened, and you just want to let him know that this gentlemen's wager is over.

be the bigger guy in the room. be nice. be patient.

Agreed. Which is why I said "(Exemption granted for a death in the family or some other legit crisis)"

I understand stiffing Jeff. I'd stiff that homo too.

That is a possibility. I hope not. I've mentioned him a number of times in the past couple of months. I'm surprised he hasn't responded.
