I'll give Bryan credit for calling the Pirateat40 debacle but are you going to eat crow if BFL ships?
1) Crow will be eating if BFL ships.
2) here is Josh Zerlan's latest trolling of my bet thread, again with moderators telling me that I'm the one out of line:
Haha by the end of the month is the only thing Bryan Micon, the "professional poker player" is willing to wager now. From "It's definitely a scam! No doubt about it!" to "Well, by the end of the month." in the span of a month.
and then just now:
Also willing to bet BFL will not ship by 3/15 (ides of March) Sgt Spike
If anyone has offers, such as "hey Micon, i'll bet you my 50 coins vs. your 25 coins that BFL ships at least 5 customers 350 Mhash/Joule+ ASIC devices pictured, tested, and working by the end of March" go ahead and throw them out here.
Don't let trolls in this thread deter you from offering something. All bets made so far have been very Gentleman-like between the bettors. Contrary to some early trolls, there is nothing wrong with putting something out there and having the other side say no. Also, nothing wrong with quick negotiation of terms so both sides are happy with the bet (until it settles
so if anyone wants some near-term BFL will ship action, I'm open to suggestions and very much want to take the "BFL won't ship in near-term" side.
Just gonna quote the above for the inevitable back peddling that Bryan Micon is sure to do later.
So now it's "I very much want to take the 'BFL won't ship near-term' side." which is a far cry from "BFL is a scam! I am positive!"
See, if Bryan Micon wasn't a liar, then taking a bet for near term, long term, forever-term would be a no brainer. But since he's unwilling to do that, he's clearly demonstrating the fact that he lied from the beginning. It's fortunate you all are doing escrow with these bets, since he has a history of welching on his contracts and deals in the past and is a known poker scammer.
Anyone willing to do bets with him should definitely do escrow or he'll rip you off.
isn't something supposed to be getting bumped today? and it wasn't a betting thread.
