Tom. As you are so righteous and have never done anything naughty in your life you can be the judge as to whether any claim for the grand is justified.
Hey Matt, I wasn't pulling you as such, I was just lamenting the fact that we can't take these type of statements seriously.
I'm not sure that I'm comfortable with being called righteous. If I was a gambling man, I would wager that I've been naughtier than you would imagine by a factor of about 10.
I do consider myself to be honourable though, so I'm going to pretend that's what you meant.
If you really want me to adjudicate, I will need more info re the rules.
Are you at DTD this weekend?
Yes mate I'll be there.
I know you weren't having a dig but you are right. For me to offer a grand to anyone catching me then just pull out makes it a farce.
If I back out on this I can never use this method again. This is a very different bet though to the one I have with Cos. The rules with that bet are very easy to set.
It's very difficult to put rules to this because it's all down to interpretation. The point is I genuinely don't want to be playing poker in the way I sometimes do. It's hard to explain on here, I'll perhaps have a go at the weekend.
If it was a straight forward quit completely it'd be easy. I want to be able to play at certain times though and that is where it's difficult.
The not posting on Blonde during work hours thing is also easy. There are clear boundaries and there is no interpretation involved.
I think that's the reason I just flippantly stopped this. It's a stupid bet anyway because of the lack of definable rules. If we can somehow come up with a set I would happily go for it though. The risk of losing a grand would certainly stop me playing at those bad times when I genuinely don't want to.
The righteous thing was a little tongue in cheek by the way
