    Linh, before you set out from Jeuno to the BCNM did you or did you not agree to allow this Pewpeww person to have the Behemoth Shank on your orb in exchange for being able to lot on the Behemoth Tongue on all orbs?
    Beastly Shank was part of the original deal yes. I was to be allowed to lot the BB item if it dropped on any orb (instead of only lotting it on my orb, since it is a YOYD) in return for giving up the Beastly Shank from my orb.

    Following Pewpeww's logic, I was not even guaranteed the Tongue EVEN IF IT DROPS. Cuz by that logic, I'm only allowed to lot it right? Not win it.

    EDIT: To answer your second question, no. It wasn't until we were at Ronfaure and after I supposedly convinced Pewpeww that Behemoth Tongue still dropped from KS99 (cuz he said it didn't anymore) that he sent me this /tell with the agreement.

    Okay no. You're 100% in the wrong. Thanks for making this thread. Sure, it backfired for you. But the rest of us know who never to invite to things.

    So if Behemoth Tongue had dropped I'm only allowed to lot it right, and not win it? And I have to give up my Beastly Shank regardless?

    Yes. You're already lotting on someone else's orb. That doesn't guarantee you a win on the lot. That means you're lotting on someone else's orb. It's not anyone else's fault that you made what appears to be a stupid deal for you and then got greedy. Because that's all that happened.

    The deal was you had the opportunity to lot a drop which was not yours if it dropped, in exchange for a 100% drop from your orb. You took their concession and then ran. You scammed them. They just got lucky that they lost nothing from it.

    I don't care how notorious Futchy is. I know all about Futchy. That doesn't mean this guy is any less guilty.

    Edit: Hell, if this guy even knew who Futchy was and was intentionally trying to scam him because it's freaking Futchy, I'd have just laughed and been okay with it. But this guy does not know who Futchy is, and this could have just as easily happened to some other random person.

    Then you're technically in the wrong I'm afraid.

    Although, I think your best bet would be to gather some friends up and do the KS99 yourself without deals.

    This post says it all. You agreed and knew the agreement when going in. The chance to lot BB item for in exchange for your shank. I hate to say it but yes you are in the wrong here. If you had asked before getting started the question of what happens if it doesn't drop the BB item you probably wouldn't be having this issue because if you are like me you wouldn't have gone.

    You still have yet to say if anyone else in the group was after the BB item as well. From my understanding this part is very unclear.

    To avoid this type of thing ever happening again just do these things with friends. Its easier and far more fun this way anyway .
