    Should Proteus pay KuhaN?

    Basically what happened is that Proteus challenged anyone to take on a bet for 100 US dollars against AMA beating Sanctuary in war. KuhaN was willing to take him up on this offer. Proteus' suggestion was to Paypal the money to ASF, who could then arbiter the conflict as a neutral party and Paypal the winnings to the victor.
    As far as we know neither side was able to contact ASF, so Proteus could consider the contract void. However, the deal was made on these here forums, as can be read in another thread. So my question is, should Proteus honor the gentlemans agreement that was made in the other thread, in public, for all to see, or should he be excused because the money was never transfered to a neutral party?

    Money is owed, I think. But knowing Absalom and their propensity to break deals, play around with definitions and out type you, it's not gonna happen... sorry kuhan. :(

    I think an action by the utopian community as a whole would be warranted in the event of a welched bet.

    Stop wasting your time. You guys obviously have not taken contract law and do not know about conditions. Having money in escrow is whats called a condition precedent that would need to be fulfilled prior to the K (obligation to pay) would be enforceable. As the condition was never fulfilled there is no contract. Obviously not gonna let someone take advantage as if I won and there was no $ in escrow who says I'd have been paid. A deal is a deal and a K is a K, get educated on these issues.

    If anyone is interested we can arrange a war this age, if you win you and Kuhan get $100 each and if you lose, well I get your acres.

    Otherwise were done here, I understand everyone is bored and needs troll material but I have more important things to do with my time.
