I think everyone is missing the real point here:

Ms. Vig is likely single again. Go get 'er, boys.

Naw, my guess is that she's back together with Vig. Women like the guys that treat them badly...and nothing is badder than gambling away your wife's cancer-treatment money.

If anyone's PM box is full, it's Vigs...with marriage proposals from female 2+2ers who suddenly find him dangerous and hot. He's 2+2's new bad-boy heart-throb.

Baby vig is really his baby. He and Mrs. Vig have had a tumultuous relationship since I met them over a year ago, but they were 'back together' when the charity drive happened. Now I believe they are split up again. He's deleted his myspace btw, and I haven't seen him on messenger in a few days. I guess this whole fiasco is pretty much over, I just hope somehow Sarah saw the monies.

[/ QUOTE ]considering GW said he made no withdraws, I'm guessing she hasn't seen any.

Would you happen to know for sure if they were actually married or not?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, neither of them have been married before.

OK so the baby really is his. Still, I feel like he used his own child for his own monetary gain, which is just as bad/even more despicable. This doesn't change the fact that he could basically used her illness to build a bankroll - I guess he was planning on giving her some but it looks like he was planning on gambling with it the whole time, since he said his account was locked but it never was.

fyi...there are some people here with Vig's personal info. If anyone posts it without his consent they will be banned.

2p2 is not going to promote vigilante justice.

But why can't this info be used to prosecute him in a court of law? I'm guessing unless Mrs. Vig was in on it the whole time, she would happily testify (well maybe, she is having a tough time in life right now, so can't be sure). Theo seems to have some insider info as well.

There is a great expression coined by the Canadian politician Gordon Campbell (loosely paraphrased):

If you are in a room full of people and say "the next person who walks in is the clumsiest person I've ever met" and the person stumbles and falls, people will say "what a clumsy bumblefck".

If you are in a room full of people and say "the next person who comes into this room is the most agile, graceful person I have ever met", and the person who walks in stumbles and falls, people will say "what a graceful recovery."


[/ QUOTE ]
I'm pretty sure the rest of that goes 'if you are in a room full of people and say "the next person who walks in suffers from a disease which makes walking nearly impossible" and the person stumbles and falls, people wont say [censored].

As soon as the vig premise was accepted and greenlit by the higher ups, you wouldn't find suspicion from below.

i'm grinching or whatever that silly term is.

vigorish probably started the scamaments back in january with this con attempt:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...in=8705707&

I was kinda interested and emailed with him for a while, but his "project" consisted of me sending him like $1000 plus, so since he was just some random guy from the internet I decided it wouldn't be very intelligent.

I did donate some monies for mrs. Vig, not much since I was even more busto than I am now, but it's still annoying.
