I had my suspicions, I was just giving him enough rope for him to hang himself - he obliged.

I'm not one of those in the know (have read a lot of it, though). But his use of language, from the start was very strange indeed. Was that part of the sherade or is he just a bit... special?

Not one other forum with Bigman as a member has picked up on this, so they are happy having a fraud on their forums are they, in fact this is a disease so he is probably doing it on other forums. It is a problem with small manufacturers trying to promote themselves on forums using glove puppets to do it. There is record of it happening and being found out on Wigwam and PFM (not Biggy) in the past. It has involved people having two log-ins and talking to themselves promoting their product and dissing competitors. It makes you wonder what has been going on at AoS with the Spotfire interconnect reviews and loans.

So in the NVA Phono 2 thread Biggy/somethingfunny says about the AOS bake off "I don't see obvious manipulation...." While obviously manipulating the Phono 2 thread itself :snooty:

It was becoming obvious that he was a plant to support Firebottle, the trouble is deceit is very difficult to keep up indefinitely.

They will try to pretend this didn't happen and hope it goes away. The same was true after Bigmans lies after the Uddersfield Bake-Off, they weren't going to allow that to happen again, hence the banning of NVA for Stoke Bake-Off. Bouyed up with that success they played this scam and dissing game with the Phono 2, sadly it seems Bigman is even a bigger eeediot than he seems and gave the game away. I can assure them we will not allow it to be forgotten.

The next game for them now is to try and get out of the August Bake-Off in Uddersfield they have commited to. NVA will be there without me, as I really do not wish to share their company. I can do this because I completely trust Dave and Nick to make sure everything is fair.
