honouring a promise

[teaulc]

as some of you may or may not know i was a moderator for a forum owned by Alex Ross,i set up a premier football fantasy league for them and put in a prize fund out of my own funds,Alex Ross promised to match the prize fund i offered if i got 20 people interested,another member promised the same. we duly got 35 people signed up. now a couple of months ago i decided to leave as i was getting tarred with the same brush as him and posted why i was leaving,i got banned,which i dont have a problem with. now i am quite happy to pay out to the top 3 as promised but he has (through someone else) told me no way is he honouring his promise. what should i do now?

Re: honouring a promise His actions shouldn't affect yours. If you're prepared to settle what you owe that's all that should matter to you.
