    My thoughts exactly lol. The mindset is completely bonkers to me. It's as if he can't grasp the basic concept of a (verbal) contract or their mechanics.

    That requires a course of basic Business Law to know though. Most people wouldn't understand that, and they are the ones who vote lawyers into Congress and "other places."

    Then those lawyers make it so other lawyers can change the system into a "fair" system which undermines the whole contractual concept to make it so "little people" can be "protected" from "big bad corporations" which turns out that the people who take advantage of these new rules are the lawyers and their "clients."

    But thats beyond the point.

    The point being: Know what you are getting into, because you can't expect anyone to back out of a contract agreement after they fulfilled their part of the agreement. Thats like doing work for nothing.

    You know, the kind that would try to break a contract because it was "unfair" for them even though the other side did their part of the bargain.
    Right, because Republicans never break contracts... like, say, with teacher's unions for example.

    Oh wait.




    Let's keep the politics out of this, alright?

    Politicians are corrupt period. There are not left/right wing honesty there. Thats why I don't trust any politicians or anyone who freely associate themselves with a political party, because that limits their thinking to one viewpoint.

    But yeah, lets keep the politics out of this.

    I fail to see the reason for this thread. These kinds of stories are stupid and baseless.

    The deal was

    "I'll give you the chance to lot on the Tongue if it drops, in return I get your shank."

    Pewpeww meant
    "I'll give you the (chance to lot on the Tongue if it drops), in return I get your shank."
    wherein the shank is forfeit either way.

    The OP thought he was agreeing to

    "I'll give you the chance to (lot on the Tongue if it drops), in return I get your shank."
    wherein the tongue would need to drop to for the trade.

    Same word order, different interpretations, both valid. Clarify next time.

    It should have been "The first tongue that drops on our orbs is yours, but we get your shank whether or not it drops."

    so if the tongue had dropped on their orb and you won the lot would you be posting this?

    this is the problem with any popped content. Ideally, if a group goes together to do multiple attempts at x it should be that all pops are consumed, whether you choose to use it come your turn or not. That would end the whiney puss-bags that just quit when they find out the drop isn't theirs no matter who's pop it's from.

    simple answer, if you commit to the runs with a rule on drops for the group then you are commited. quit before the runs are done and yeah, you're an ass.
