To be honest I think Matthew has truly taken you for a ride, but good on you for staying honest.

Matthew = dust and this whole thing was a ploy to get 100 btc.  Cheesy

Congratulations to dust, and thank you for putting your money where your mouth was.

Agreed.    Matthew may have weasled out of his bet,  but I'll be sticking to mine.

Buy something nice with it Dust Smiley
Serious question:
Given that you were heavily invested in pirate, bought up bitcoinmax accounts and had this bet, how much have you lost in this whole thing?
I hate to see people losing significant cash...

I should come out just about even after it all.   In hindsight, the Dust bet was a daft one, but I got caught up in the excitement,  and figured Matthew must be pretty damn confident to put all that money on the line.   I didn't really consider that he'd use some (tenuous) loophole to get out of it.    I clearly have too much faith in people as a whole.

Still,  I still think his initial reasoning for the bet was a good one.   I stand by that.

Hah,  yes fair enough Smiley   Still,  doesn't stop some trying to use vagueness to get out of these things.

But yeah,  Escrow should be mandatory for these things regardless.

I'll shoot the 5BTC to that address shortly,  I'm at work and need to remote into my bitcoin machine.   Don't panic if it's not there in the next few hours Wink

As I said, I'm not holding you to the bet. Honestly I just wanted you do stop shilling for someone who STILL has yet to pay anyone back. If you decide to donate, great. If you don't, I won't even mention it.

That's pretty man of you...considering you had no choice...

Thanks Dust, RoloTonyBrownTown, and Themos, for demonstrating how to do bets in Bitcoin-land if betting on this and that is your thing.

Even though I've won my 5BTC bet due to Pirate/Matthew's default, I'm withdrawing my bet anyway. Rolo got screwed well enough as it is.

Ah Rassah,  I totally forgot about that.   I agreed to pay up if I lost,  so I still will if you want to post an address.
Ooh, send it to the Bitcoin 100!

Huh, that could work. If you wish, send funds to 1BTC1oo1J3MEt5SFj74ZBcF2Mk97Aah4ac, along with a transaction #, and we'll add you to the list of donors  Grin
