BTW, I started out that semi-long post I made a few minutes ago with the intention of presenting arguments for both sides.
I was surprised that I couldn't come up with any good arguments for the post-April betters... but it is what it is.
Try reading the title of the bet and see if you may figure any "intent" of what people might be actually betting on. When I do that, it talks about a product "shipping".
The title seems to suggest an intent of referring to the product being with customers - that's usually what "shipping" refers to.
If the title were on its own, I would agree completely with the post-April position.
However, the details specifically elaborate on the definition of the bet, and that definition seems to have been met.
I would tend to agree with this defintion:
Shipping - The process of transporting an item, usually through the mail. Shipping is a very basic, common way of getting an item from one place to another, or from one person to another.
Also, you are not with your unit. Also, you are not a customer, you are clearly a independent contractor or consultant, even if you ordered a unit. Being that the bet laid out conditions about non-BFL employees, you can make the argument that you would not count either. Now if you were at home and it arrived, that would be another story, but you were at their facility and left the unit there.
