Mich agreed to Gas paying the 1k instead of Ak? If that is true then yeah there really isn't an issue other than AK just being lame for having someone else cover his bet for him. If Mich didn't agree to it because he wants the $ from AK and not Gas then it is a no go and he is way in the wrong and his behavior is awful.

If Mich and/or Gassy has Aki's info, or whatever, than why is Mich not contacting him OFFLINE, instead of trying to create some drama, to get out of a losing bet online? Why is any of this being brought up online?Akphi said he was going to set up an email so that they could communicate before election day. Doesn't look like he set up any kind of communication

Sounds good. I'll create an email to talk with you and Michelangelo offline closer to election time. This won't be as easy as taking a G from wrong way, but it's going to be pretty damn easy.
I've asked this 3 times and nobody has bothered to answer. Was Mich cool with Gas paying the dime at the time Gas agreed to it? Did he read it? Was he in the thread?
Because in this thread he sounds like he isn't fine with that at all and wanted the original bet to be him vs AK.
Obviously if he objects to GasMan paying him and wants it from AK isntead then that would be the issue.
If he wasn't made aware of the new financial arrangement then that isn't fair to him at all. Obviously a big part of the bet is being able to take money from AK. That is part of the bet.

AK says to GasMan:
AK says to GasMan:
The reason you were chosen is you would hold the money. If Michelangelo wants to do this on the honor system, I'm fine with that. I will send him $2k if I lose. Just letting Michelangelo know I have no where to post up $2k. If he's fine with that, I am also.
Mich says: The bet stands.
Go Trump
verdict: So Mich was cool with AK's honor system proposal since the settle up couldn't be finalized. Why would he be cool with that? I have no idea but yeah AK is in the clear on this 1.

FWIW, Mich is right to be all "WTF?" about AK just completely going ghost a week before the election. Guy posted here non-stop the last what 3-4 months mostly about politics and all of a sudden he is AWOL right before when the bet gets decided? I'd be pissed too.
But unfortunately that is why you don't give random people on the internet "honor" system bets for multiple dimes. Is it shady? Is it not? We'll never know unless Trump wins and AK does/doesn't pay up.
Had similar situations like this happen to me but I couldn't outright call the person a stiff. Basically same as the WVU thing.

"I have no where to post up $2k. If he's fine with that, I am also."
I have no where to post up $2k (that's a lie, it would be easy to find an acceptable alternative, emphasis on EASY)
If he's fine with that, I am also. (how cute, he's OK with the fact he doesn't have to post up, isn't that awfully nice of him?)
Then he completes the trifecta, he disappears and doesn't exchange e-mails
The point is whether AK would pay or not we'll never know and we can't assume he wouldn't pay because he stopped posting for a week.
Once you say "Ok the bet is on" and are OK with extending credit then it has to be what it'll be. We can't be cancelling bets around here because a poster goes AWOL or because people think he is of dubious character.
Once that was said AK had no obligation to post up, post on the site the week up to the election, play with his dick or do anything like that. He was told that no postup was needed.

Brings it on himself by posting volume everyday for a few months and then disappearing a week before the election when he had a 4 figure bet with another poster. Given the perception of him around here by many, that certainly was going to raise some eyebrows.
But yeah, he isn't under any obligation to do anything once Mich says "the bet stands" and we can't cancel bets based on perception.
I think a lot of the posters that blamed him earlier in the thread just either A. hate AK and are irrational or B. Didn't have all the information. Even I had trouble gathering the facts because nobody bothered to point out that Mich agreed to not postup.
