1. Miami will win game 7 :blah

2. Miami will win game 1 of the Finals (El Nono has this bet)

3. Miami will win the Finals


Willing to bet any of these against another bolded or well known user, no troll names.

Avatars must meet ST rules.

Otherwise anything goes.

Avatars will be displayed for the remainder of the Finals and/or until Christmas if it's winning the Finals.


So 1 and 2 are out of the way.

How about the last one, any takers?

I'll take a sig bet for item #2... deal? (if Lebron dies tomorrow and Indy moves on, we can either call it off or apply it to a Indy-Spurs Finals, your choice)

Be sure to give El Nono one of those Argentine Nazi flags after game 1, DMC.

If you lose both bets,Nono deceides what you use.If you lose/win one of two,then it all works out.

It's ok if you don't want though,my 0.79 posts/day ass isn't really a celebrity :lol

I want to actually see the avatar now and again so I can :lol without having to go back and search.

Also, I don't want to be the output of the 3 way and boolean function.

Vs the 500 dollar stiff, I'd say it's at least amusing to those involved.

Nah - I've actually been paid out over 1K from bets on ST. This is just boring as hell and allows people to keep having incredibly stupid takes because there are no real repercussions.

And my 500 stiff provided 1M times more entertainment value than any little sig/avatar bet could ever dream of.

Well let's do something you're good at. I know, let's have a spelling contest.

Nope. That is the same line of thinking Kool had which is another reason it was epic. I even told him that before the bet. The entertainment I received, plus ST, made that a legendary moment. No sig or avatar will even come close. Sorry chollie.

As stated on my offer, I'm only doing sig-bet... feel free to bet the avatar with somebody else...

DMC
06-02-2013, 11:24 AM
I wouldn't pay 500 for any forum legendary moment that didn't include me getting something material.

DPG21920
06-02-2013, 11:25 AM
Huh? I didn't pay...you're acting like I gave him $500. Not getting $500 that I didn't have is not the same as paying out $500 from my bank account.

DMC

I have sigs turned off. Avatars only.

If DPG wants to make it interesting, ELE for life, Miami wins Finals he never posts here again (NBA Forum), if Spurs win, I never post on this site again (any forum).

When you're owed 500, that's your money. Had you lost you would have paid 500, so yes, you lost 500.00 because it was yours already. You didn't lose the bet. So you were basically betting a thousand dollar swing, you would have been out 500 without the possibility of winning anything. I'd say that's a worse bet and it did not quell his shitty takes.

This is true. Best bet in ST history tbh, completely ruined his troll. What an idiot for taking that bet :lol

Before I take it, I want to know the stipulations. If I accept now, does that mean if Indy wins, then you lose?

That doesn't make any sense. Not in the context of your argument. By your logic, my bet essentially boiled down to a better of your version of a sig bet for entertainment value - difference is mine was actually entertaining.

They have to actually play in the Finals.

If you want to bet game 7, I've given my stipulations on that in another thread.

Only true if YOU won. Had you lost, you would have paid. A sig bet doesn't risk 500 real dollars. If the other person doesn't change his sig, nothing is actually lost. No risk is involved.

So you basically have two outs,

1. Miami loses game 7

2. Miami loses game 1 of the Finals

So shall it be written.

If Miami loses game 7, we can either call it off or if you agree, we'll apply the bet to game 1 of Spurs-Pacers... your choice.

Our bet is the actual game 1 of the Finals... Spur win: I win, Spurs lose: you win.

DMC

Oh no, if Miami loses game 7, you win. It's worth it to me.

You have a separate bet for game 7, which I didn't agree to take, and I'm not going to get suckered into.

Our bet is for game 1 of the NBA Finals if Miami makes it there... if they don't, I'll let you decide if you want to either walk away or apply it to Spurs-Indy...

i just can't care less about the NBA finals or the remaining 1 game of the ECF, otherwise i'd like to take the bet because i don't have nothing to lose. anything DMC selects for me would be much better than the crone's ava and sig that im currently using

That said, keep in mind timvp is on record saying some posters get extremely butthurt with the Nazi paraphernalia. IIRC, he said the Nazi trolls didn't even had to post, just being listed as 'reading a thread' kick started some massive shitstorm in his inbox :lol
