No, there wasn't any welching. I changed my avatar to one of Tony Adams. The fact that that avatar wasn't as humiliating for me as you clearly wanted doesn't alter the fact that I honoured the spirit of the bet.
No way was I going to be bullied into accepting an avatar that had been forced upon Luvvy by the mob. If everyone had left Luvvy to his own devices, there'd be no argument and no where for me to hide, but that is not what happened.
This time round, the rules are explicit. It is accepted, by each of us, that whoever loses the bet is going to be completely and utterly humiliated for one calendar month. Clearly, we each feel that the other is going to suffer that humiliation, which is going to make for a very interesting season!
Stop making excuses HIAG. You agreed to the terms of the bet and you welched it. You even admitted that you bottled it because I'd 'goaded' you.
Just make sure you don't do it again this time
