It's a long story, but a few months back I had Carlsberg legal threatening me over some banners, to which I ran a poll on the forums. Long story short, but we resolved it quite amicably in the end.
Back in May, Boo Firky & I went out for a drink in Nottingham & Firky took a picture of me drinking a pint of Carlsberg.
Firky showed this to Mickey, which prompted this thread. TBH I'd forgotten all about it & didn't actually know WTF Mickey was on about.
However all of a sudden the gossip machine went into overdrive & there were rumours flying around various forums & blogs that I was selling The Toy to Betfair, selling to another vendor, charging for it, yada, yada yada.
When I found out what it was about, we decided to keep quiet about it & add fuel to the fire, as every vendor and their uncle were tuned in every day to see what it was all about, and the specualtion on the forums was hilarious.
And so ends the biggest wind up in the history of Betfair trading.

Now, rather than wasting time with wind ups, get the Linux version sorted.

This one on General Betting was the worst.
There was some guy there called Lex trying to give me a proper character assaination. Interestiingly it turns out that he was trying to undermine Gary a few years back & Gary seemed to think he was the dude behind Bet-IE.

Which I have to say if he is, he's in a fine position to talk considering how they fecked over their customers.
Whoever he is though, I suspect there is a commercial agenda behind it, as he was hanging on my every word trying to find tit bits to show me in a bad light.

Christ, I have finally found a sensible post by FAFH. It took some doing:

Lex
You sound like a right wimp.
Sorry but you do.

Gimme strength.
Get in touch with the real world, I would suggest to you.

Seems this guy decided to sign up for & post on the Betfair forums on Saturday after my mailer went out to warn those poor souls over there that some spam was coming soon.
Today he makes his second post having a pop at me for having a commercial agenda.
Talk about pot & kettle. No commercial agenda with him whatsoever.
I wonder which vendor he is / works for?
