Re: Need help with bet dispute
since he said it's all one game and you said 3, and it turns out to be five, i don't see how him winning is even an option... it's either 1) a push, since neither of you got it right, or 2) you win, since you were closer to the correct # ... this is pretty standard here imo

Since you were both wrong though I'd just call it a push. |

Re: Need help with bet dispute
as much as i hate to say it this is a push
|
Re: Need help with bet dispute
You are all (66% of you) a bunch of nits. This is not a push. Roommate should win.
This is not the whole reason why it's not a push, but since the people who vote are obviously super nitty, I get to be nitty too. Given that it's five games: This is a false statement: "It's all one game" This is a correct statement:"It's three seperate games" |
Re: Need help with bet dispute
You need to define what a 'game' is.
If you put The Orange Box up on your shelf along with 19 other games, I'd say you have 20 games. Which means that it's one game. I you play Team Fortress 2 and then Portal, I'd say you've played two games. Which means that it's more than one game. |

Re: Need help with bet dispute
to me the spirit of the bet was whether or not it's multiple games, not exactly how many games it is, so OP loses.

Re: Need help with bet dispute
That makes sense. There are a million stars in the universe. There are also other stars.
But Orange Box is not three separate games. It is five sepearate games. You could say "There are three games within Orange Box" and that would be true, but you cannot say "It is three games because it is, in fact, five games." Anyway whole thing is just an argument (and a pretty silly one) over technicalities. I vote push because both of their statements were wrong. Theres different ways to look at it. If the case was on a shelf with 6 other xbox games, then I would say that I had 7 xbox games. On the other, when actually playing it I can switch between the games. |
Re: Need help with bet dispute
Its the spirit of the bet imo...
yeota: LOL THATS ONE GAME other guy: Nah, looks like three. (its 5) Other guy: Told ya. Yeota: GRIMMED IMO Pay up nit. Or at least buy out for 1 dolla. |
Re: Need help with bet dispute
you're both wrong... nobody wins imobbq
|
Re: Need help with bet dispute
You might be right that the 3 games statement was technically wrong. I shouldn't really get involved in these discussions in a language I don't master fully.
But that was just a digression anyway. The main point is that the spirit of the bet = roommate wins. |
