It's not my fault he went full retard in the last day and tripled down on Pirate.

Guys maybe we should let it go. I know man-code requires everyone to pick up dueling pistoles, but this whole situation is so f*ed up that perhaps it's better to  let everyone lick their wounds. I have a feeling the anger that is currently directed at pirate is about to focus on Matthew when he doesn't pay, when all his crime would be is to get a little too full of himself at the bar -sort-of-speak-.

I don't have money in it any which way, so it's not me to decide but I can image for the people who were believing (against all reason) in pirate, this is a pretty big blow.

He already went full retard by getting into business with Jonathan Ryan Owens and Bitscalper.

I went into business with Bitscalper? Funny. First I've heard of it. Got any more FUD I can chew on? MOAR!

The accepted terminology is "developmental delay". If you had ever worked with someone having a severe developmental delay, you would perhaps be a little less free with the "retard" label. Unless of course you meant "retard" as in "slowing down" then I would ask for more information as in that case what you have written does not make sense.

I think I love you.

The moment he started taking big bets he waived this possibility. I wish he didn't do it but that's the way it is.

when there were 10,000 BTC  in the bet everyone was excited and some people even doubted Matthew has that much BTC in case of a loss

Now there are somehow around  31,500BTC in the bet

what has changed ? if it wasnt obvious before its looking pretty certain now that matthew is not alone in this belief and as crazy as it sounds someone else must
also be pumping money into this bet besides matthew

Matthew must have other motives.  Anyone certain pirate will pay and trying to make money can just buy passthroughs at <50% and come out further ahead.

Considering just where those wounds are, all but the most flexible will find that anatomically impossible.

We could lick eachother's wounds, if you swing that way.

The fact that he's still taking bets shows he is sure he has a way to avoid paying, and maybe even making you pay, so increasing it now seems pretty stupid.

Wisdom. Or I'm just sure I'll win.

Are you betting with your own coins or has someone else asked you to make this bet for them.  You claim to know very little about Pirate and his operations yet you don't come off as stupid enough to make a blind bet on a whim with such a large amount of your own cash.

No offense, but everyone is saying something different right now. Either I know something and I am not saying, or I don't know something and I'm just playing, or I'm just ignorant and don't know what I'm doing, or I'm lying and don't care about the outcome, or this or that or the other thing. Frankly speaking, this community has continuously been wrong about me from the first day I came into it. After this freakish display of accusations and speculation, I think I finally got over it. Everyone can think what they want, I'll keep doing what I want. ^_^ Cheers

I said you were annoying and I was your friend as well as enjoyed you on the forum.

Please don't tell me that I was wrong. I can't handle anymore heartache today.

Why is there no question #1? Or is there? Or is this it? Or else?
