That didn't look like a formal bet to me, though I'd still send the guy 10.
My boss is the world's worst on betting. You try to bet him on a game or something, he outright refuses then wants you to pay up if you end up being wrong. |

How many mags come in a "case of pmags?" It could reasonably be argued that your burden is as low as two pmags in a box. But your potential exposure could be as high as 100 pmags depending on who judges this case. I'd recommend offering a settlement agreement of 6 pmags in a box.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By hankforker: On it's face it seems ridiculous, but I could see how it might be taken as legitimate. It should have been used as a tongue in cheek moment to harass NG. Taking the bet seriously because OMG free case of pmags is sort of dickish. As I see it, it is wrong to not pay up the case of pmags. It is also wrong to accept the case of pmags. The proper payment should be a case of pmags that have been custom stippled with dicks. Lots and lots of dicks. Maybe one, dick free and painted gold like a winning ticket to a candy factory. These mags should never be used for anything except stupid bets on arfcom. Dickmags could then find themselves littered throughout the community until one day, during the boog they are united to end tyranny and rain freedom. Make it so. Just don’t post any pictures of said dickmags. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Subnet: Strictly speaking, the other guy never actually agreed to the bet. If it was something like "Wanna bet a case of PMAGS?", and then he went "You're on!", and then you went "Alright, lets see it sucka!" and then he dropped that...you'd definitely owe him a case of PMAGS. Were it me (mostly because this is just how I roll) in your shoes, I'd offer to send him a couple.  |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Canoeguy: Everyone will say you do but he didn't accept the bet before someone spoiled it with the answer. Part of betting is having the balls to be confident in your answer. The other poster never got the chance to prove his confidence. SO in short according to school yard rules he didn't accept the bet so you are off the hook. But you would have lost and you know it Though that was a rash statement to make on your part when 12 seconds of google would have shown you the truth. This, I vote not guilty but OP should pay something. |

I don't see why you would offer a bet, regardless if anyone formally say I accept, and not expect to pay up.
In this situation, I say you owe someone a box of pmags (10 pack at least) In this case, we once again see the stupid tax. |

As I see it in the thread the poster did not accept the offer and and another person provided the proof. So the arfcom custom was not followed. However you did make a bet. So I'll vote pay up. Your paying up will ensure your artcom legend status.

Kind of like an offer has to be be made AND accepted to be binding. TECHNICALLY OP does NOT have to pay up, but to keep his Arfom cred he SHOULD. |

You asked if he wanted to bet a case of pmags. He never said yes, but gave proof that you were wrong. I don’t see the bet as legitimate since he didn’t accept the offer. All you did was ask if he wanted to bet. If you made a statement, “I bet you a case of pmags.” That would be a different story.

OP made the bet, a third party chimed in and settled the bet before the terms could be agreed upon by both parties.
It is unknown if the other member would have accepted the bet without the third party having settled it in the intermediary. |

It was almost 3 minutes after that before the person the bet was offered to replied. I say he owes nothing, but should send him some Pmags on goodwill. |

Terms offered, but no formal acceptance. I say send the man 5 as punishment to put your money where your mouth was and learn from it. Had that been after a few beers around the camp fire, you’d be fucked. I go by EE terms online.
