im starting to wonder if DF isnt just trying to give us some BS and is trying to make herself feel bigger than what she really is in the poker world. Hell, honestly.... Ive been "cautiously optimistic" since BF happened.... who hasnt? Thats a pretty **** way to get out of telling us anything. I mean i think anyone who had money on there was feeling it too....

It's been said in this thread many times before, but people got Monday from this tweet:

This is really irresponsible reporting and is just wasting our time and playing on our emotions for attention. Whether she really has a source or just made this up, most likely she didn't have a solid reason to believe an announcement was coming Monday, certainly not solid enough to report it so confidently and tell us to book it.

I just hope nobody follows her or believes her after this, even if we get the announcement we've all been waiting for in the next few days.

You guys?

This is a really, really ridiculous argument.

"A few" is a phrase people use when they don't know how many there are of something, but it's small. It's a ballpark phrase used to give someone a general idea.

Insisting that x and y fall under "a few" but z doesn't, is just too silly for words. You can't mean a concrete number like "3" when you are explicitly using a phrase that denotes inexactitude.

Ya her twitter is a good read right now. I am explaining to her how reporting works and she is saying "omg not my fault etc etc". She also doesn't understand how this tanks her credibility.

Everyone who is currently losing their marbles needs to go back to Friday and read Hood's posts, and then calm the **** down. Or keep flipping out for no reason, that works too.

If you were getting thousands of hits an hour would you got to ANOTHER website and let the cat out of the bag or would you sit on it and let it ride out?

Nobody is flipping out. We are having a sensible discussion about the meaning of the word few. I guess Huskermoney is flipping out, but he doesn't count.

I was trying the same thing...seems she is not able to understand that...you just cant post big news and if you are right its all good and if it turns out to be a lie for whatever reasons your sources are to blame...mindblowing kinda

Thanks.

And I did read that tweet. Like I said a few post above, I simply didn't see the difference between what she said and all the other rumors that have surfaced in the last year.

Exact and wrong dates have been thrown around all year long.

Few has 3 letters = 3 days.

Post was made Friday

Does the weekend count? Or does few have off on the weekends? Does few include the day the post was made?

Too many questions, not enoufff answers!!!
