I was curious to know how many smerits can a merit source have per month?

sMerits allocation isn't equal per merit source. Anecdotally I know some merit sources have 1,000 sMerits per month, while others have a wide range of numbers down to 40 sMerits.
This means that there is a factor that theymos uses to measure the amount of smerits allocatable to a merit source. It could be how effective one is in spreading merits among wider range of members. If that be the case it means the likes of DdmrDdmr and yourself should have the maximum. Though 1000 is a way high to distribute monthly, unless the smerits roll over to the next month.

Gaming bots to make predictions... Bots have not been able to solve common recapcha not to mention doing some actual prediction that could make me loose my money in entire. I won't try that for any reason! I think both have no place in gambling (maybe to place periodic bets at particulate ocvurances and with a definite stake amount but nothing more than that). They are not capable of sme real predictions and depends on preprogrammed popular opinionated sites and can't accurately validate what to follow or not. I won't risk my money on that and don't plan on using any gambling bots at any point.

Everything is about programming and algorithm, if there is a clear prediction of the algorithm a site is using, it is possible to have bots place bets and win bets. Then it is not a guarantee for profits because anything could happen and your portfolio would vanish. My experience with bots is that even if you are using bots, there is still need for human intervention to maneuver or correctly manipulate the process. Everything is possible and knowing to do things without putting 100% is a cool feeling.

actually ? they MUST be entertained because it is losing what awaits us in this  field so best to check your  funds and time and of course try not to be disappointed when you gamble.
remember that gambling designed for happiness and not for richness .
we are just making it complicated when we desire to win.

Gambling is a part of the entertainment that can provide pleasure for us but not for those who lose in gambling because they will be disappointed when they lose. If you are aware of it, you will not try to gamble just to buy pleasure because you will be able to find other things to get pleasure in living life. We don't have to gamble just to get entertainment; we can even get entertainment by spending no money. This will be how we can find it.
Gambling is more for entertainment than money making. I remember when. I was actively betting on soccer. Most weekends I wouldn't feel like betting, but to get motivated to watch the match and to remain excited during the match. I will purposely sacrifice some money to bet on the football match. After the match I will be happier if the bet goes in my favour, otherwise I won't be sad. But assuming I didn't bet, I might end up not watching the football match because of lack of interest.

Manchester United seems will get positive results again for their pre season match because currently they were lead 3-1 from Crystal Palace playing at Melbourne Cricket Ground since the beginning of match Manchester United has very dominant and Martial playing as Ten Hag expectation even can score goal on that match and the match still on going on the second half and if they win Manchester United will get 3 winning streak under Ten Hag and next match they will against Aston Villa and i have a feeling they will win again
I have to give Manchester United the credit this time, they are really improving, the team plays better football than what we saw last season. Erik Ten Hag is really doing a good job since his arrival at the club, a lot has changed that we can see and so far they have a 100% success in their pre season games and their attack looks balanced also. It is most likely they can keep the momentum when the season starts.

I was involved in one argument about Manchester United players form and the contribution of Erik Ten Hag to the club. I had to remind my arguers that there was when Manchester United was winning Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool with Martial, Rashford and Lingard combination. It's not that the boys played better football them. It was because the boys were willing and determined to play. The spirit of social media and laziness was not in them as of that time. The coaches Manchester United had were all lazy and could not correct the big boys. Those guys play opposite of what coach instructed. They wanted to try it with Erik but Erik was calling their names during training as they make mistakes and told them that he is the boss.

According to the news on AS, Atletico Madrid have already contacted Ronaldo's representatives for a deal. He is getting closer to Atletico Madrid day by day. This is going to make Manchester United fans really disappointed because they must be waiting for him to stay at least one more season. I was also expecting this to happen but he suddenly changed his mind after not qualifying for the Champions League. I don't expect Manchester United to make difficulties for his transfer either.

https://en.as.com/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-insists-on-leaving-manchester-united-and-keen-on-atletico-madrid-move-n/
Based on common sense, there are some transfers I consider that will not happen. It could happen with an ordinary player but not with a player like Ronaldo. Just like when the rumour came that Ronaldo was going to Chelsea, I said it will not happen, he cannot go to Manchester United closest rival.
Today I am.hearing that Ronaldo will go to ATM, I am also considering it not workable, though Barcelona is the closest rival to Real Madrid, not ATM. Let us watch how it will be.

Me I just want say our govt just dey make the portable guy dey more popular as them go dey invite am about the allegation of forming a cult group, one million gang but the guy don change am for dem say na one million fans lol. But forget our Nigerian police, na him case dem want look when we get people wey dem still accuse to be leaders and sponsors of boko haram, dem still dey carry ticket for election give dem. Dis na our naija for now.

We no need another person to tell us again say our country naija na cruise nation, imagine IGP dey invite zazu mad man  wey call himself Portable for questioning unto dat em careless yarning. Dem leave important matter dem wey dey give us headache na person wey em brain knock na him matter dem dey discuss now chia who we offend like dis?

Inviting portable over his statement that he is the founder of 1 million boys cult group is a wise movement by the government. I don't see the reason anyone should kick against it. Portable is not a mad man, portable is a millionaire, portable is not a mad man, portable is a celebrity, portable is not a mad man, portable is a brand ambassador, portable is not a mad man, portable is one of the most popular musicians in Africa.
There are millions of people whose role model is portable. He shouldn't be ignored for making such an unguided statements.

A lot of summer joy spread all around the forum!

About what happened on 15th, I  needed explanation till I remember I saw this thread once and skipped it, now I came back to read it.
I logged in my account on 15th and noticed some merit spray in it, as usual I had to check the profile and see why I earned the merit. I was surprised when I was scrolling down, down a down, merits sent on 15th couldn't end. I said "shebi na my eyes dey pain me?"
I wasn't bothered much about how fast and accurate he sent the merits, because all the merits landed on quality posts. I was curious to know how many smerits can a merit source have per month?

I propose a title for DdmrDdmr. I'll call him "The merit sprayer or the joy giver of the forum"
1788  Economy / Economics / Re: Avoid loan apps, a word of advice. on: July 17, 2022, 09:39:09 AM
Getting loan from loan apps or loan customers comes when two things happen.
1. When the need to get the money is absolutely necessary.
2. When you cannot get from trusted friends and relatives.

Some of these loan apps are not regulated and they do not have regards to privacy. They can assassinate character. Even when the borrower have settle the depth they will still go ahead to call or message anyone close to the victim, advertising him as a debtor.
If you want a loan, go to the bank and with collateral and get a loan.

I don't think Ronaldo is a player to go to Atlético. He won't do anything for money, all he wants is a Champions League success. But I don't think there will be any thought of doing this in Atletico Madrid, if it will play in Madrid, this team will not be Atletico Smiley
Transfer speculations seem to continue for a long time. The situation is still uncertain, almost the whole world is wondering where Ronaldo will play
Until now there is no clarity from Cristiano Ronaldo's side with which team he is close to. Only a few rumors mentioned and even then confirmed actually not like what was rumored, ranging from Chelsea to Bayern Munich.
And for now I have not seen the latest news from the Portugal captain. Surely all parties are waiting for confirmation from Ronaldo what decision he will take.
Ronaldo is mute and even his next move is not clear to himself. I believe he is watching the ability of Manchester United to change and bring in new players that would make a good team, then he could remain in the club. But some people are saying that Ronaldo cannot play in the europa league, I don't know if it's a mere thinking or what Ronaldo has said himself. Personally, if o were Ronaldo, I would stand by the club at this time and play the role of the legend. Another factor is since Erik has said that Maguire will continue to be captain, it is not a good sign or respect to Ronaldo. If Ronaldo will play for Manchester United this season, he should have the captain badge.

I read where the president of Benfica was mocking or making jess of Liverpool for over spending in Darwins. In his word he said when he heard that Liverpool was interested in the player, he was expecting a 40 to 45 because the guy did well but was surprised when 80 offer came. They were shocked and laughed, they then pushed for 100 and it happened.
He said football has gone crazy and they popped champaign. He also said he has no worries because he has a better striker in the feeder team.

Do you actually think that Darwins was over bought?

I don't think members of this forum will opt to use theh picture as an avatar on the forum, as that will expose their identity. Bitcointalk users are Anonymous and we are all known by our user names since we have high respect for privacy.

I have read in the forum that during the early days of the forum, people were actually using their pictures because yhe avatar space was actually for profile picture. The day I was researching the forum, I discovered that those old accounts had pictures on them, maybe their owners have left the forum or are dead.
Privacy was not a big issue for the early people of this forum. Even the famous bitcoin for pizza man had his picture displayed and his address he made public for delivery of the pizza.

It seems that the forum members have lived with this notification style for so long to the extent that everyone has been adapted to it. This is because no one is winning to recommend or push for a change, rather everyone is suggesting a third party bot to do the notifications.
What are the possible reasons of not having the kind of notification recommended by OP. Will it lag the software or the software will not be compatible or is theymos avoid anything that will lead to hack of the forum?

Personally, I do have much problems with the notification since I always use the last replied option and click on "new", it will take me to my own last reply and from there I trace down.

Who else is closely observing how things play out in the Osun State Gubernatorial Elections wey dem dey run today. From the developments e dey be like say na PDP Candidate (Ademola Adeleke) go win ooo even untop say na APC person (Gboyega Oyetola) wey dey rule still dey contest. Many people believe that this election is going to be a "litmus test", na the word wey dey use be that for the Presidential election wey dey come. How una una see am?

I nor too hear about LP candidate (Lasun Yusuf) for the polls, e be like na only PO get weight for the party. I sincerely hope the general elections don't turn out like this osun state own is playing out where it becomes a real race between PDP and APC alone.

Election for Nigeria don dey monetized, na who him money long pass dey win election now. This na the serious mata wey wey need to understand and have peace. Starting from primaries of delegates to main election na money mata e be.
Adeleke prepare well unto money things, even him Davido put body wella. Me I even see Adeleke son for video dey brag say him prepare come, say as him dey yarn $50k dos dey him pocket. So the people collected money from both and then they were tired of Jagaban dominance. Na em make the election dey tough

I don't think Manchester city need any other player right now, cause with their recent squad they can be a tough opponent in every competition, -snip-
I don't think so. If Nathan Aké will move to Chelsea, Man City needs 1 new center-back at least. I think 3 center-backs aren't enough for the whole season, how if they got injured? It will be a big problem if Man City has no good substitution for center-backs. Having good midfielders and front liners will get nothing if they have a weak defense. Man City must think about this seriously, they should have a plan to anticipate if Nathan Aké really leaves the club in this transfer window.


Manchester City actually needs a center back. Manchester City is not an average club that want to get just one trophy for a season and will be OK with it. Manchester City is a club that will contend seriously in all the competition and would want to win all the competitions. So all the positions needs two players one active and the other outstanding in order to avoid fatigue and stress when. The season becomes too tough.

Manchester City is a clubd that has a very good team depth and they actually want to maintain that for the next season which I percieve would be as tough as the one that ended.
1795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: July 15, 2022, 11:24:45 PM
now Ronaldo has many choices, there are several top European teams who want him like Chelsea and Bayern but no agreement has yet been made, if Ronaldo stays at Manchester United it is because of his own will and because of his love for Manchester United even though this team does not play in the Champions League stage next season , and I still believe that next season Ronaldo will be able to do better at Manchester United under the tutelage of coach Erik ten Hag.
I don't understand what you are saying with so many options for Ronaldo at the moment who is struggling to find a new club.
Now Manchester United are starting to act and will not let any club bring Ronaldo and the clubs you mentioned like Bayern didn't even have an interest in Ronaldo from the start and that was confirmed directly by the top brass there.

Ronaldo is a very great player no doubt and he has the ability to play well in any team he finds himself and moreover he is very hardworking. It many coaches are afraid to get him for technical reasons. But for business wise it will be a good business. This maybe because for a start, money from sales of Jersey and increased match viewing time would be able to maintain Ronaldo, but if these money sources reduce, maintaining Ronaldo would be expensive.

Again, Ronaldo is a big fish and his presence could spoil or alter the ecosystem of any club. If I were coach, I wouldn't be so fast to go for Ronaldo at his age.

What wrong with Mesut? I had almost forgotten about him, but I read some news about him. As a result of mutual consent, Mesut Ozil's contract has been terminated by Fenerbahçe, Turkish professional football club. He has joined Istanbul Basakshir, a rival team. Ozil is a man of bluntness and truthfulness. Supporting oppressed groups and speaking out about them was always a part of his life. There is a lot of respect and love I have for him.
At the time of Mesut Ozil at Real Madrid, football games in la liga were slower with less intensity. Now teams play fast football, high tensity and high pressing football which Mesut Ozil cannot keep up with. At Arsenal he was kept on the bench, then it was as if he was being punished for nothing, now everyone can see him for how slow and dull he is. Playing him now in a league with so much competition is not advisable and will be problem to the team.

Ozil problems are majorly out of football playing. He is too blunt, bold and truthful. For goodness sake, Ozil isn't as slow as a snail and he wasn't that slow as you described him.when he played alongside Ronaldo.
Any team that loses ball much doesn't need ozil because they will need a more physique and fast guy to do the marking. But on a very balanced team that is possessing football, Ozil is the perfect man to complete the passes.

I still respect him till date, though he might not be the legend we want but he has made significant impacts in football

Manchester United first game under Erik Ten Hag was a good one, the club is off to a good start. They won Liverpool in the friendlies, this victory is a boost to their morale though I think  preseason result doesn't determine a club's result in the season. You can start the preseason on a high note and still finish bottom of the league. Preseason matches are experimental games to better understand the fitness of your squad and your opponents as well.

That big win for Manchester United against Liverpool has a very great meaning to the fans, to the players morale, to the coach confidence and to Manchester United as a whole. Assuming there was no win, or there was loose many hopes would have been down by now.

The team was able to play ball and make passes from defence to opposition eighteen box. What the club needs is to reinforce the defence by signing one more, get a defensive midfielder and then a striker to follow up Martail incase Ronaldo will leave.

Instead wey him go even try mak d history of the first Nigerian president wey resign frm office him dey still wait till him tenure go finish. I sure say nigerians go take his resignation as good news but him still want stay till next 10 months.
Well, the matter no suppose cause too much wahala for our mind, na only few month remain make the man go rest, even though he will be handing over a Nigeria that has completely degenerated, wetin matter now na make better person succeed am, the person go inherit a terrible country with plenty plenty debts, but with hardwork and determination the person go fit bring Nigeria on track for better things, and the only person wey fit do this in my opinion na Peter Obi.

Nigerian politicians dey resign?
I no know where we get am wrong. But make God try forgive us shaa. For Nigeria our leaders don come humanity for mind use ethnicity, religion and thievery full the mind. No body fit stand up for good.

Buhari on him own fit resign, but based on say make power remain for North and remain with Muslims he will not. If he does he would be called a betrayer.

Even Tinubu eey dey waka upandan to become president, even if he wins, him go still tire. You no go fit cheat nature .

The Voters card sanitization and awareness campaign this period make sense wella, I like the fact that the youths are now fully involve in politics now. But my issue me say no be to register for PVC come keep am for house oo, I know say most of the youths nogo gree come out to vote that day due to fear of oppression from political thugs. INEC must still provide voters some kind of security I think that's the only way to get maximum result.
D awakening way com dis period eh, e no dey lik anytin way 9ja don xperience b4. Dis na 2 shw complet trust 4 INEC nd d voting system. Our hope dis time be say, mak INEC no con betray us bcus na dere hand e dey 2 decide who win despite our vote.
But, on a serious note, I lik d way tins dey go nd dis day born out of d sufferin way we don endure for yrs. I no doubt say, we go see youths plenty 4 polling unit dis time, after all, dem thugs na stil youth kwa nd d diaspora wth some pple way want change dey ready 2 join bodi wth INEC to ensur security of polling unit nd credible election.

Men dey remember wetin don sup. The spirit of Endsars and Lekki Killings dey alive. We are not giving up. Men are into this seriously.
I no dey talk say Peter Obi na messiah, but wetin I dey talk be say the other two options no go well for us.
For sure say everybody get choice but this time around, I feel like everybody wey mean well for Nigeria, no be only youths, go vote Peter Obi. Wetin these men wan tell us again wey we never hear?

Dem go work road for us abi? For this 21st century our leaders still dey campaign with road and electricity. Mehn! We have been raped.

Today, Wike son graduate from UK University with 2.1 for law why some bright stars here dey wait for ASUU.

Ekweremadu dey fly UK to save daughter while millions of our daughters dey die for poorly equipped hospitals here without making headlines.
