He sent me a tell saying that he'll give me a chance to lot BB item on both his and his LS-mate's orb if it dropped.

When it was my turn (3rd/last) the Tongue still had not dropped. I asked if I still get to keep my shank if my orb didn't drop Tongue. He said that wasn't part of the deal I made, that it wasn't his fault I misinterpret the deal.

"The deal was not for the BB item itself, but the chance for you to lot it if it drops on our orb. Even if it doesn't drop on your orb, we still get your shank. You misinterpret the deal, not our fault."

Is this what you call a "Confidence Man Tactic"? Cuz through the "fine print/contract" he is right, but not through the "General Perception" or "Common Courtesy" way.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you did only ask about the BB item. It is a general rule of YOYD that only stuff on your orb is yours. If you are given a chance at Items off someone else's orb it will ONLY be the specified item. Offerring the BB item lot WAS common courtesy, but the rest of it...? No, that's people's compensation for using seals and time to KS99 with you.
