Just so that you know what happened exactly:
The contest was approved by the original owner, and there was no plan to sell the site at that time, either. I did not act beyond my authority and all info. including the prize amounts were discussed before opening the thread. Da Dice was sold to a new owner. In effect the responsibility for honoring all contests were of course passed on to the buyer. The responsibility for all expenses were passed on to the buyer. Only this particular contest was denied AFAIK on the grounds that he was not aware of it?! lol, I thought this thread was public.
IMO, 1.85
BTC (I was 4th
) is more deserved than the roll ones.
It is quite beyond me why he would refuse to honor this.
It was actually expected for him to honor, as no one would really mess the things up after buying it for a fraction of the amount..
I will talk to this guy. But no guarantees.
I apologize for dragging you into this.
Have a nice day.

Finally some sentences from you, ndnhc.
No need to apologize on your side, you managed the contest and now stand in the crossfire between the old and the new owners.
I'm sorry for that. Further, since you yourself entered also...
But someone has to stand up and pay for this contest, for the sake of Dadice.
Seeing that the deal went down at around 300
BTC, there surely is a contract, didn't things like that get settled in it?
