The original google doc with all folks on the opposite side of the bet was deleted so there is no evidence for the folks who bet against Matt (like myself) using our #bitcoin-otc nicks instead of posting in the thread.

Sorry - still a scammer in my book unless you bring back the original google doc.

Theymos and JohntheDong are keeping score on that thread. If you were one of the people betting, please contact Theymos directly, prove your identity (the one I'm assuming is from the OTC?) and then he will PM me and I'd be happy to open discussions for settlement. Thanks.

Are you going to pay people off in BTC at over 100 bucks a pop. ROTFL

Matthew, you wouldn't even accept my wager in your string of bets that would never be honored.

Wow this is great seeing as he could have just ran off with a load of money.

He never took money during the bet...no one even had to prove they had the number of BTC (or XBT I guess) they were betting (I suppose some betters pulled a Matthew in that respect as well, but we will never know).

What do you mean?

Talk is easy. He won't pay up.

Hasn't even paid me and my bet was early and low, when it still wasn't obviously a fuck up.

Hi - sorry, that's not what I wanted to say.
I got my money back! Thanks for your escrow services!

What I didn't get is what MNW promised to pay in case Pirate defaults... And as I understand MNW want's to settle with the people he bet with.

So there is actually 75BTC open according to my book. That's why Matthew got the scammer tag.

All I am saying is that he actually bet against me, and not you. You were acting as an escrow but it was my money and me who was risking it.

It's all about the game, and how you play it

Quote from: el_rlee on February 04, 2013, 09:31:45 AM

Hi,

you resolved with deslok? He was passing through for me. Unlike all the others I actually came up with the money up front...
Also later on I raised my bet - which you accepted. How come my name's not on the list?

You can send my 75 BTC to 1BSqMJmf2ogXm9oSYsxhiPF1LP4nHpP7P6 or PM me any other settlement offer.

Thank you.

El_rlee I am disappointed to see you attempting such a thing after the initial fallout I recived this message from you

Quote from: el_rlee on September 11, 2012, 07:37:49 AM

50btc well received, thanks

A quick check to the address you sent me

Quote from: el_rlee on September 09, 2012, 08:57:12 AM

Hi,

many thanks for your services, Matthews deadline is over and I really don't see he won the bet. Would you mind sending my BTC to 1FWMPAwHkqeTh9jdEo9YBoFztYbobZUPFS ?

cheers, el_rlee

A quick hop over to blockchain.info shows a 50btc transaction in both ways http://blockchain.info/address/1FWMPAwHkqeTh9jdEo9YBoFztYbobZUPFS

as far as being 75 instead of 25, that is between you and matthew and as far as I am aware no coins ever changed hands in that instance

Quote from: el_rlee on August 23, 2012, 07:50:14 PM

hi,

Matthew has put you down for 75BTC in his spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ajtx05YrHtIydFVHcGxLOExTbnhqajJLZmlSZUNtM3c#gid=0 .
I increased by 25BTC here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1123625 , it's my and not your liability.

thanks for your help, be sure of my spare change and maybe even more in case I win.

Responding here to claim my 50BTC. The address in the bet thread is still valid.

If you actually pay up, I'll applaud your honesty.

I applaud Matthew's attempts to put things right. He, it appears, acting in good faith and trying to negotiate a settlement with parties that think that they were wronged. There is really no good reason to attack him for this.

One thing I would add is that, at least in England, with reference to Rights of Third Parties Act 1999 and in most common law jurisdictions too debts cannot be assigned to third parties without agreement of both contracting parties. I would say that if any debts were assigned to other entity than original bettors without agreement of both parties that assignment would be unlawful and unenforceable. But do check which jurisdiction is relevant and whether otherwise was specifically agreed beforehand.
