happyp Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 The funny thing is of course that he'd have been cheaper buying himself another telly and putting it in another room (surely with ?1000 kicking about he has more than one room that could house a tv) and watching something else rather than "betting" on someone to "make it interesting". I have already stated this .. however our "hero" cant/wont do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeepers Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 More money than sense. (nap) Jeepers, you know that you can put all this to bed by posting a scan of your bet, right? I have no idea what you have to gain by waiting until the result is know, if you're going to do it either way. I'll only say this once more. HOPEFULLY. Just read the thread and that will tell you everything you will need to know about my reasons for not scanning the bet. Il show the losing bet (if it proves to be that) a bet which will be of no use to anyone. I'll collect the money if it comes in and hopefully they will let me keep the slip. AFTER I've collected the money, I will post it on here along with my winnings, knowing full well that it won't be able to be claimed. Anyone else asking for a scan in the coming weeks, months will be directed back to this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Wiseau Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I'm not going to explain everything again, but if you read through the whole thread you will see me giving my reasons for not disclosing information about my bet. I've made two "piss poor" attempts at sarcasm so have been quite rightly identified as a bullshitter. Unfortunately sarcasm is hard to portray on an online forum. Proof isnt though. Proof which will be provided after the X Factor result is known. You're right. It is difficult. And you're among the best, most honest posters on this board.

Then if they don't let you keep it you can still post a scan of it. Just by scanning it, you don't have to post it. If you don't have a scanner, take a photo of it. You don't have to post if before the event... But It removes the excuse that they kept your slip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Plissken Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 As someone with no interest in the X Factor, I did not read this thread when it appeared. Then I saw it go to more than 5 pages which meant some form of bitching had taken place, as no thread about the X factor could get that long without it. I looked and I'm glad I looked, top work Acey. I'm not sure what would be funnier: 1) The bet not being real and it 'wins' 2) The bet being real and it loses 3) The bet being real and it wins All three outcomes would provide much amusement, but especially 2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no stake in Betfred any more; besides, it never made a difference to my pay whether folk won or lost. Also, until proof is obtained, I shall regard your bet as fictional, and therefore of no consequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
