    We negotiated a buyout last night. I won't say the money details at the moment because he has to speak to the other people that he bet with and I don't want to influence anyone one way or the other, but I obviously got the lions share of the money.

    FTR I'm still holding the other money, so if the other bettors come to an agreement just have both of you PM me and I'll send the money.

    yes, i did concede the bet. it was definitely possible for me to complete the bet if i would have ran like i did the three months before i started the bet. i'm sure if i would have started with a larger bankroll i would have been able to do it also. i needed to average about 2200 vpps a day to complete the bet and on the first day i got just undre 4,000. i was on pace for SNE if i could keep that up every day for the rest of the year.
    I just realized after a week tho that it wasn't worth it to keep going and losing more money grinding the sngs that i love to play when i have 10 losing sessions in a row.
    props to Gamble for letting me buy out of the bet and for holding the money for everybody that bet.

    -while it was a bad prop bet for me i will have no problem taking other prop bets in the future. so if anybody can come up with something that i think i might be able to do i might bet on it, or i might come up with another ridiculous propbet and let u guys bet me again.

    Also for the other 3 of you that made bets, let me know where you'd like to be paid. It's easier for me to send on FTP but if you'd prefer stars thats fine.

    As I said twice to you now, I was waiting for pharell to confirm to me that he was giving up completely since his PM to me was kind of ambiguous and I'd rather wait 12 hours to make sure I understood him over just sending out the money and then having him say "oh no wait what I meant was _______" and then have it be a big thing to get everyone together and resend money and all of that. Due diligence. As he literally just sent me a PM, I've sent the money.
