    He didn't say whether he was the sole lotter or not, and I'm assuming that he wasn't since the deal was the chance to lot, but that's irrelevant...the fact is that he never got the chance he bargained for.

    While he has not said that it seems extremely likely he was the sole lotter. It would be nice, however, for him to explain this point.

    I don't understand why you are not clear on the fact that the tongue is not a 100% drop in this KS99. Everyone I know is aware of this fact. He had to realise that this might be the case and that the bargain he made might not cover this contingency. Bad deal. Buyer beware.

    I realize that it's not a 100% drop...the deal was made on the basis that IF the tongue dropped, he'd have a chance at it. Unfortunately, the tongue did not drop, so unfortunately, the deal maker got screwed...such is life, and the deal doesn't exist if the tongue didn't drop...both Linh and the other guy should have cleared this up to begin with.

    Jeff wants item A
    Sue wants item B
    A and B both drop from the fight
    they go together so they each get two chances to get the item they want
    Sue trades her item for them to fight
    neither item drops

    Jeff decides he doesn’t like just the one chance at his item so he says, “well since I didn’t get A from yours I get B if it drops in mine”
    Sue: “But B didn’t drop in mine and I don’t even want A”
    Jeff: “Well I didn’t get what I wanted from yours, so I’ll leave and do this deal again with someone else for more chances”
    *Jeff warps out*
    *Sue looks at her empty hands and begins to cry*


    basically a scenario for what happened.
    You didnt like that you didnt get the drop from his so didnt want to burn yours even though he burnt his for you to get a chance.

    I used to get it in YOTD when I'd go we'd do their orb then theyd warp away, thanks for the help and drops, gl with yours

    YOU are the one who did wrong OP

    It's not irrelevant, it's the core of the argument, because it means he did in fact have a chance. He got exactly what he bargained for. And the others didn't want it, because as Linh pointed out himself, they didn't even know it dropped from KS99 (and at least one of them has a Black Belt already). Only after he told them, they offered him that deal, which shows clearly that they had no interest in the tongue to begin with. He got exactly what he asked for (even more, since he backed out before upholding his part of the deal, which means he got two shots at a tongue for free). Three shots at a Black Belt for one shank, for someone who has no interest in a Defending Ring, that's as good as a deal is gonna get.
