I've got L$100 that says Thursday's townhall will not happen due to grid outages and/or emergency patches that require SL be down at that time. I'll take 1:1 odds for the first 20 willing to post here that they say the townhall will happen on-grid, on-schedule. As a matter of good faith, I will pay up as if I have already lost (as soon as possible, given today's upgrade) with the expectation that you'll be fair in return tomorrow. However, you can also decline to be "fair" and just get a "free" L$100 from me with no repercussions.

This has nothing to do with the plethora of uncomfortable questions obtained from the solicited pre-townhall request for comments. If this is deemed "improper" use of the forums and I suspended or banned and you are one of the first 20 to have bet against me and I am therefore unable to pay up, my designated "agent" is prepared to disburse all payments as if you have won the bet.

I still have a notecard from you, when you held an event at my disco or something and I paid you L$500. Those were the days!

I won't take your bet. Not safe.

But I will bet you, that if indeed the meeting takes place, 99% of the questions will be ignored, Philip will say nothing we don't already know and the rest will be slathered with empty promises.

Looks like there's been a small delay already... only 3 hours late... what's that, 50% longer than expected? :D
