Nath, my will to bet is genuine and my wording is reasonably meeting your
challenges:

(1) Since you wanted to measure my success with some figures and quoted the
following to prove my failure:

> What *results* do you have to show us? Does any international or
> national mahjong authority adopted your house rules? Not a single one.
> Did your house rules spawned international regroupements of players? Not
> a single one. Does anyone play with your house rules internationally?
> Nobody. Are IMJ sets sold in the world? No. Where IMJ sets manufactured
> in the world? Nowhere. Who with international credibility cited IMJ as
> an influence in mahjong trends? Nobody.

Would you consider I win if I could give an answer of YES to any of the
above questions, *by June 30, 2005*?

(2) As to a bet based on the visions I posted on my website
(http://www.imahjong.com/g3mbs.html), that is, to test the degree of my
belief and faith in my visions, would you consider I win if any of the names
INTERNATIONAL MAHJONG, INTERNATIONAL MAHJONG RULES or IMJ RULES is ever
associated with any international tournament of mahjong, *by the end of
2006*?

What your attack/assumption are simply not in my mind and I have not and
will never have such dirty intention of meeting your challenge that way! On
the other hand, like I said, I won't bite back if you want to drop your
challenge for whatever reason. And, as I mentioned before, no matter how
your attack, I'll continue working on my visions.

Keep your authorization to yourself as I have no intention of publishing the
messages on my website - Google is a better place to keep the records, I
believe! And if I ever want to publish any messages from the Usenet I guess
I don't need your permission or authorization, right?!
