"Nowhere in the initial post was there a caveat saying *unless OOO stealth patches, then imma renege."
From the OP:
"This thread/offer is valid until any changes occur to the drops."
The point of this is that drops were patched out of the game for a while, perhaps on purpose or perhaps not. If OOO updates the game and puts item drops back in then yes, there will be item drops. This fact is insignificant.
If it turns out that I was wrong, and that the drop rate is very low (lower than the next to nothing it once was) then I'll mail Feon the crowns. The static edge dropping has proved very much significant to this issue, but if time passes and no one else finds anything, Feon gets paid. She has that going for herself. Until then, I'll edit item drops out of the OP and continue onwards. Everyone else, barring the people that sent me crowns, is free to do whatever they will with their money.
Regardless of whether or not OOO stealth patched it back in, Feon did in fact post proof. Nowhere in the initial post was there a caveat saying *unless OOO stealth patches, then imma renege.
*edit: to put my money where my mouth is, i'll match every crown Fehzor gives over. So far, pot was at 175k. Assuming that's what gets given to Feon, that's what I'll give as well, so long as everyone pays up.
