Of bribery and toys

Post by vash3g »

I just picked up an android tablet to augment my need for toys. Now I just need to figure out a way to bribe wms to send a free code for KGS to me. I tried his trusty sidekick many a time for bribes but she was like stone! I wonder what he takes for bribery?

Sweety is tough as nails! She'll give you nothing and make you glad to get it!!!

As for me, I'm not usually into quid pro quo but I can be blackmailed. If you ever manage to take a photo of me in a compromising position (e.g., playing chess), then you may have a deal.

Pick a number, pay him. If you get no response, it's not enough.

I haven't seen the photo myself, so I don't know exactly how embarrassing it would be. But I do know the one you are talking about. :)

Perhaps a suitably salacious description of the photo is in order?
