Why all the fuss over a pic of MtG?
There was a pic of the man himself, LTEC and RC (or Kegger maybe? - I forget) on one of the ACOL pic threads a year or so ago so I can't imagine he would've changed that much ...

Well it is his (I presume) pic, and henceforth his right to post/repost it (or not) if he wishes, but as he has posted one before I just don't quite see what the big deal is...

Not everybody here was sucked into posting at that last refuge for the dregs of humanity that you call ACOL. Besides, it's no fair to welch on a bet.

Jesus, I don't really want to see his photo - strangely enough I'm not into looking at photos of middle aged men - but he obviously doesn't want to post it here so that's what made it a good bet.

I wouldn't call ACOL the dregs of humanity throughout it's career

it has had it's place (which appears to be over) and while I was not into durring it's run, does not make it bad

in fact, many of the posters (and a greater percentage), came from the forum I came here from, OWO

Actually, like 3 hours from my post to yours? Unless you're in a different time warp from the rest of us?

Tommorow, daytime PST, you shall have it.

Although Horse like to throw around terms like "won" and "lost" and "welch" I have yet to see an actual link to the terms of the bet. Just Horsie's convenient characterization.

The thread that detailed how the bet was negotiated and AH's weasling out of the original terms appears to have been deleted.

Gee, I thought a techno whiz like you would have no trouble looking it up yourself

But hey! Don't take my word for it

Hey Horsie - isn't it kind of like saying you won the lottery, but you can't produce the winning ticket, so someone else should look it up for you?

Given the tenor of his posts so far, I'd say that MtG's photo is most likely going to be a "rear" view shot...

Now MtG wouldn't have had anything to do with that by any chance would he...

For "fun" - look it up.

I think I'll let it run on a bit more and then I'll do a post quoting all MTG's shilly shallying remarks above - he really doesn't want to post that photo

MtG

I think that, as does everyone else, that you lost the bet and should post

you should have made the bet on the Taliban's continued existence (I remember the basic argument was on how easy the US would find the terror war)

maybe to keep the bite down, Horse should post his picture also


why have you not horse?? (in one of those picture threads)

are you afraid??

When he finally posts the photo its going to be the biggest anti-climax for some time.

I don't know why he wants to look at his best - there's only a bunch of men and boys here.

You still could. You'd just need a warning in the title thread. If you went by the Australian TV code it'd have something like (AO, H)

I think that obviously, Horse's Visage breaks Apolyton's Rules of conduct (it would disturb the minors)
