I'm assuming its an unofficial site, as there seems to be quite a lag on information. Maybe they got bored with the wholed freakin' thing. I have never seen anything from durrrr on a buyout, but who knows...............

Sorry, no challenge action... more of an update... hope that's acceptable.

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/19...7/index12.html

Reading from here onwards makes some interesting reading, regarding the state of the durrrr challenge, including posts by Jungle and durrrr.

^^^ Part of the discussion.

FoxswoodsFiend asks Jungle about how diligent he has been in trying to restart the challenge.

"I have been very diligent. I have tried basically everything except an aggressive route. I am trying to get moderators to work on it(should I reveal them?) but durrrr is not being cooperative.

I did escrow originally out of pocket, with only one player escrowing for me. Durrrr told me that he escrowed 500k and that Ivey guaranteed rest, but in fact he never escrowed and Ivey took a long time to return mine. However, he eventually did. Right now, neither of us have escrowed."

parts of their replies

durrrr: [Jungle, for a long time i wavered on whether you were a scumbag, or just socially awkward..] [..some friends had convinced me he was just socially awkward/dumb..]

jungleman: [..I started thinking you were a pathological liar/sociopath but I really do think youre more likely just very apathetic based on talking with others about you, etc]

lol i enjoy this more than the challenge

It seems as though durrrr is simply trying to start a war of words as a smokescreen. Hope his fanboys take his side so that he can say "I'm not playing and I'm not paying". Its pretty transparent. His excuses and rationale are pretty ridiculous. Just a lot of BS so he doesn't have to pay the man his money. Play him or pay him.............

In all the back and forth, here is the comment that seemed problematic. It was durrrr's response to a question about completing, forfeiting, or buying out of the challenge:

Gotta side with jungleman. He doesn't seem like he is being unreasonable.

And wasn't the idea of a challenge like this to shut people up by outplaying them?

God, reading poker analysis in NVG is like watching ******s trying to figure out how the washing machine works. Just stop. Youll never be able to do it and your mom washes all your drool stained clothes anyway.

You have to put JM on a bigger pair or a set. Is JM gonna re-raise with Ax, a lower pair, or air? Doubtful. He may call in that spot, but he probably doesn't re-raise in that spot and risk being committed to the hand. With a weak or marginal hand, JM can simply call in that spot and hope to hit something on the turn. With a re-raise he commits himself to the hand. Durrrr should think that his top pair isnt good and hes a big dog if up against a bigger pair/set. What value does he get with the shove? Yet he doesn't get away from it. Instead, the shove. He fires all the clips and gets rewarded at the end with a split..............

This is one of the greatest posts I have ever read on 2p2. No joke...seriously top 10 if not higher.

Really wish durrr would respond to this...

i think this thread should be closed soon enough, since from the looks of it,Durr isn't willing to continue the challenge or pay the man his monies. Its pretty sad for us railbirds, after waiting for 2 years.

Durrr,

How many months have you dodged your obligation?

Part of being honorable is paying what you "owe." This goes for money, or the timely completion of a bet that you will most likely lose.

Messing up your life a bit to complete The Durrr (that's you) Challenge is not such a wild idea.

regarding that thread in hsnl: it is amazing to see how durrrr just talks about how he did not lie in the past and other stuff that can't be verified, yet he should give a hands/timeframe or an idea how this could be resolved finally.

he currently is also still banned from games in macau, or did I get that wrong?
