So where's the press release?

Epic Wager Rocks Bitcoin Community

Could be just a coincidence, but just caught this post over in the LENDING forum:

See,  the thing is, you're not donating to charity as you claim to be if you lose, Pirate is. Your money will be going to a charity, yes, but not by your choice, by his. Don't assume credit for that which you have not done.

only if you win  

No, please do.

Now, that's mean. Only fools donate to charity?

 bahaha!!!   Vandroiy, I already thought you were a fool, but boy did you just confirm it.    This whole thing pleases me greatly


Did we decide which charity is getting Vandroiy's money?

Also does this mean you'll stop your horrible trolling until the bet is settled?

He actually confirmed. Am I donating to charity now?

Time will tell I guess.

I think this whole ordeal is epic.

I am a bit astounded by this bet actually going trough. I congratulate vandroiy

This pleases me that Vandroiy has been true to his word

=Definitions=

==Pirate default==

A default will be construed to have occurred, if at any time prior to October 1 2013, 00.01 UTC, BTCST will be late by at least 14 calendar days, in disbursing either any regularly-scheduled interest payment, or any withdrawal request, by a valid account holder of BTCST.

===Verification of default claims===

A user making a claim must submit to nanotube his BTCST account username, and registered BTCST withdrawal address, as well as any supporting documentation as to the payments that were due but failed to be disbursed.

===Unexpected contingencies===

In the event of any unexpected contingencies not explicitly described in this contract, or any ambiguities, nanotube shall have final discretion in the determination of contract outcome.

===Change in BTCST ToS===

BTCST has the right to change the terms of its outstanding deposits at any time, as long as there is advance notice of at least 30 calendar days. Such changes may include changes in promised interest rates (as long as interest rates do not go below zero), changes in interest disbursement frequency (not to exceed 1 month intervals), interest tiers, forced withdrawals. Such changes shall not be construed to be a default event.

The event of dissolution of the BTCST business and return of all owed funds to all account holders, also shall not be construed as a default event.

Contract signed by me. Expect same contract signed by pirateat40 and vandroiy shortly. Once deposits are made, I'll post confirmation message.

We're all three on IRC, trying to finish, check and sign the final contract.

I guess that's it, finally getting an answer to what Pirateat40 has been planning on this. If he plans a payout, he'll announce it soon, since I doubt he's infinitely rich. In that case, my only request for you guys is to push him to get the funds to a charity before there is a new lending operation.

alright, alright

Go back to sleep... 

Nah, I can confirm Vandroiy is *not* pirate. I know Vandroiy in person, and he's more like out of LOTR than the Carribean. 

Damned Cylons!

Don't forget that pirateat40 and I are also the same person.....  just sayin.
