The thing about it all is it depends on who or what you know...thats the real issue here. You don't just get to 115 at an ungodly hour and just come up with that...there had to be some contingency in place. That's the part where people are betting and don't know all the stipulations. A little history here helps...
Once upon a time there was a bug ahead set played that everyone was sweating in one hole here. I can't remember if it was a Tony and Scott match or Scott and Alex ...but they changed the set after a while. When that happened everyone scrambled and tried to figure out how to adjust, that's when people started betting differently for a long while here. They would say "whatever they do is fine if anything changes or prorate the way they do."
From my perspective that's a given here now, that's just what we do. So you ride with your horse until the end. So if Chang said he wants to go to 155 then his high water mark changes with it. Thats the only logical conclusion in all of this that precedent has. NEVER has anyone paid off something before its conclusion here and it sets a very difficult path forward if this thing is being settled based on pre match stipulations. Obviously no one will care if it finishes within 8.5 games but watch what happens if it finishes outside that margin. Even if people don't say anything that's going to significantly reduce action in the future or people will be sounding like lawyers trying to book a sweat.
You have to consider a worst case for this to make sense which is, what if one of them can't show up and finish after this...you essentially have no action now.
