You pay your bets, even though this was the biggest rip off in any election.

Yes, this was a color revolution coup, but the end result is the same. Trump is out, the bet should be paid.

Cyber should pay, and Thomas and Jeff should be gracious winners.

50% correct Billy. This isn’t the first thread -or post- on this matter. Not one word from him since Election Day. I gave him 2-1/2 weeks past Inauguration Day to simply acknowledge the loss. Not a peep. Penalty of Scorn rules now apply.

Of course this this would be your response in this topic. Rather than acknowledge he should concede and pay off his bet, you take a shot at someone.

Oh well. Not all Military personal have integrity. Only some. Just like the general population so I suppose this stands to reason.

Cyber hasn't been here since November. I wonder if it isn't just sour grapes and something really happened to him.

He did NOT seem the type skip on a bet. I didn’t get that read from him in any way whatsoever.

No, I never would have thought he was that type either. He was also here pretty much every day. I hope he's ok.

Whatever. He RARELY has anything constructive to add here. I’ll give you your props for the ability to carry on a conversation but HIM? He’s just another meathead with a size 50 shirt and size two hat.

And oh yeah; eat shit.

He doesn't get it.



Why do they go with "You attacked me!"?


Low self esteem?
Sensitive feelings?
Because they buy into the hate narrative?


All the above?





Just asking.

You should probably consider retirement then. Given your profession.

Making bets with people you don't know and expecting them to pay up is stupid.

Especially with the shit show election we had.

Not entirely wrong here, but.

First of all, yes the election was an absolute JOKE. We all agree on that. But we kinda knew going into it, it was gonna be a shit show so wager at your own risk correct?

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.

I've done numerous bets the last 17+ years with members here, always for $100 for St. Jude. But about 12 years ago i did a bet with three members that were fOSU fans. I was a USC fan. One paid up to St.Jude and the other two didn't and left the forum for good. I don't think Cyber is like that. If your word is no good you're no good, period.

I wouldn't trust Repo to pay up either after watching him back peddle on a ST Jude bet at the other place.
