Blag!
Blag!
What's the best example you've got of someone trying to blag information out of you? My favourite has to be the time someone started a rumour that I was emptying Vivid Bottle Banks, and after fending off several enquiries a well known (and well respected) kent based player, who posts on here rang me out of the blue to try and prise the 'info' off me.
The conversation went something like this...
RING RING.... etc
ME...Hello?
PLAYER... Hi Rich, its ****
ME... Errr... Hi mate, how's things?
PLAYER... Yeah not bad mate...
A few pleasantries were exchanged at this point, but I was waiting for him to cut to the chase, after all there must have been a reason he was ringing, as I very rarely spoke to him. Maybe he wanted my advice on something, or maybe he had something to share with me, who knows.... Anyway he continued...
PLAYER... Anyways i'm out of the game now but I was in the bookies, you know, having a bet and that, and this geezer walks in and starts playing the fruit. Wasn't taking much notice cos as I said i'm out of the game now, (which is bollocks...) but after a while he starts collecting the money out and, well, he took the lot out....
ME... Oh right, what game was it?
PLAYER... Errr... Bottle summink... err.. Bottle Bank? Made by Vivid I think... Haven't heard anything on it have you? Like I said i'm out of the game and don't really speak to anyone but thought you might know...
Now at this point my eyes started rolling around...
ME... Err, no mate, I've not heard anything on them to be honest (Which was true, because no empty existed)
PLAYER... Oh right, err... yeah okay mate, not to worry, be lucky!
ME... yeah you too mate, take care.
Now I had to laugh at the speed at which this rumour had got about, but I was a bit disappointed that someone of this persons stature thought he had to resort to lying about whether he was still playing, thinking that it might persuade me to clue him up. It was a bit cheap, and as a result he went down a bit in my estimation. Wonder if his memory will be jogged when he reads this...
Another time, 2 or 3 months after I started doing Connect 4 some cunt from Bournemouth, who is known for being all take and no give, rang me up to say he'd heard from someone that I was emptying quizzers off that game. I asked him who had told him that and he said he couldn't say. I thought to myself two can play at that game. He than asked me if I'd like to show him how to do it. I played dumb and denied I was doing anything and rang off. I was fuming at his cheek, so texted him saying if he could give me 1 good reason why I should give him anything then i'd tell him.
I never heard from the greedy prick again.
I wouldn't have given him the sweat off my bollocks.

I read one thread saying "e-mail me the details to prove you know the empty!!", yeah, alright mate. I came back online a few months back and mailed a few different characters from the past, some of which I had helped myself, some where as solid as ever and others told me they hadn't played much blah blah blah. I believe more than anything in getting to the point and being straight with people and this would be our conversation.
You: Hello
Me: Alright bollox! I hear something is going for bottle bank! I don't know it, but I have a few round here and will see you well for it if you fancy doing business. I have been playing loads lately but lost a fucking fortune so could do with a boost!
You: Aaaaaaaaah, my heart bleeds for you but............. FUCK YOU!
Me: He's a tight fuck that McStreak!
