I think, he could feel the heat already...as he thought we were about to pin him. May be that explains the rush to come out in the open after the tournament! :)

Well I think we should ask him/her to keep his side of the bargain or his IP address goes to the media.

My credibility is at stake you know...because I did a diligent Cut and Paste and our man has altered the original post  ::)

I doubt anyone is suspecting you of that kind shiftiness.

Guys I think we are ascribing too much importance to this dude or dudess. I have not read any of his blog posts after I read the first one posted here and wont read any either because these are born out of pure malice and mal-intent except that it is couched in acerbic wit and supposed humour.

I don't think we need to fret too much about this individual and his inability to come for a live chat on here.

give his ip to whoever wants it..

I am still wondering how can we trust a guy to come up and share his identity while he is still trying his best to keep himself/herself away from the world.

I have been following this thread with much interest.

I think CV should out the "Fake" IPL player, given all that has transpired.
I do not think that CV (and the folks who acted in good faith on behalf of CV) should have any scruples in outing the blogger.

More than any live chat, I think this story (i.e. outing of the blogger) will give far more publicity for this site.
Besides, as I have already said, faking the identity  of a KKR player already puts the blogger on shaky moral ground (and perhaps legal too!). An outing would be just desserts!

Well, we know who is he not--he's a not a real KKR player. Beyond that, we'd be engaging in guess work as to who this person is; my guess is that it isn't a SRK cronie or a professional journalist.

Maybe a slight modification of the title "Fake IPL Player is in London" or "Fake IPL Player is indeed a fake player" may be better!

I'm not a marketing guy but I do have to come up with catchy titles for my reports.

I just thought this title is misleading & may leave some of the newer folks disappointed after they read through the entire thing.

Yes. Sounds like you promise something, only to backtrack. (Not a marketing person either)
