Put your money where your mouth is?

Just an idea. I don't know the legalities associated with something like this, but could Jarmo set up a betting pool where board members could bet on a release date? Say for instance I think the album's going to be released in the next 2 months, and another person says I'm nuts, could both persons send Jarmo a couple bucks, and when those 3 months are up, Jarmo could distribute the funds? Hell, Jarmo could take a % cut and make some money off the deal. Any chance? It would be interesting to see people putting their money where there mouth is.

Yay, encourage Jarmo to violate various National and International laws
Tell you what, though, I've got 20 bucks says you hear something concrete before Dec 25, 2005.

I'm sorry Darknemus, I don't know shit about international law.
It was just an idea.
Besides, I wouldn't bet you on your point because I agree with you!

lol, I'm just busting your chops. I honestly don't even know the legalities of it. I'm just assuming that its illegal because, well, most of the good ideas are
Peace out,

Yeah, would be funny. But i dont think it would work.
But anyway! The contest doesent have to involve money at all. Just make a thread where people only are alowed to post once.
And then wait and see who wins..

I did a thread like this about a year ago, and ADZ or another mod said that it's been tried before and it doesn't work. I dont remember the exact reason, but it was something about how the wait goes on forever so how could anyone actually win the bet.

I bet you all, Heinekin, money, whatever, that we hear concrete news on the album, or at least stage of which this project is in on, or before December 31, 2005.

SLCPUNK,
You're on
. If for some reason I'm not in town around that time (which is possible, i'm doing alot of travelling now-a-days), I'll hook you up via PayPal or something. For both our sakes, though, I really do hope I win this bet.

Theres no doubt in my mind that you will win lol. The announcement for who is playing RIR 5 should be sometime in November/December and I have a real good feeling that Guns will be there this time.

yeah lets do this.
the bet is for an official statement for a release of something, meaning at least a gig or a single or CD...

Well, going by the release date rumor I've heard from several people, we should get an announcement in late April. But if the release date I heard is false, I will bet that we dont hear anything at all next year.

So the bet is announcement date for CD or RIR gig? I was betting
date for CD will not be announced before this date
....I wll bet that there is no official announcement for CD's release this year. OK? That is my wager. If he does RIR and says some bullshit on stage, that would not count as official....
He's already talked on stage.....
I want an official announcement of some kind!
We had a thread like this a while ago...haha, when the poster lost, I busted chops for the money (I didn't really care, but I wanted to be a prick
), he never came back....not under that name anyway. I think it was a wager for CD anyway....oh well, it's been a while.

GNR will definitely do RIR 5
If they were gonna do Lisbon but only backed out due to Bucket quitting, why wouldnt they do RIR5?
STill doesnt mean the record is coming out but they would do just a one off gig for fun.
Summer 2006 we will get Chinese Democracy
No McGann Im not shaving my head like I said I would last time
but Summer 06 is the year
Of course Ive said this since 2002 but oh well.
