No, he was too dumb to keep from agreeing to the bet, but I don't respect him less for backing out in this case. Carl pushed him into agreeing to a no-win situation on false premises -- that is, conned him -- and therefore I think Wii_Master has a good enough reason to justify backing out.

But I do have low respect for him in the first place for being dumb!

I didn't con him, i just took the really dumb bet he gave for people, and turned it around on him. And as you can see, he didn't like it.

I agree with you on the "dumb" part though.

And backing out from the bet now means i will take nothing he ever says, seriously.

You successfully, but falsely, made him believe that his challenge of 'ok, change anything but the games and I will take your bet' allowed you to make the bet you did.  He wouldn't have agreed if he didn't believe he'd already promised to, which he didn't, because your claim that your bet was in compliance with his terms was wrong. 

Therefore, if you did it on purpose (maybe you didn't and honestly thought you were within his requirements) then you conned him.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
