Please post the contact details of the players at Everton and Watford Football Club?
I don't think they will comply with your request. There's no good reason for them to do so. You could probably do a little work and find the information for yourself though. Google could be your friend.

I've always thought that posters should consider posting in a company's announcement thread or topic but knew that managers could not pay them for doing so or ask them to do so.

More particularly, this rule only rules on Alternate cryptocurrencies[1] board and its sub boards not on gambling related boards. Although maybe @theymos and global mods (@hilariousandco) can enlighten us about this as well.
Also here are one of the cons breaking the rules.
That is very much not allowed. The threads are trashed, the poster is banned for 60 days, everyone who participated is banned for 3 days, and everyone who participated cannot display a signature for 30 days.

[1] Incentivising posting within one or more threads is not allowed

Well put. I'll message the manager to make sure they see this topic.
2083  Economy / Gambling / Re: What sort of Weekly & Monthly Bonuses do Bitcointalk members want? on: January 02, 2023, 01:00:37 AM
My question is, if/when you start offering these bonuses will the RTP change? From my understanding sites can get the RTP changed, but i'm not 100% positive on that. If the RTP doesn't change, that's a huge +.

I personally like making a few extra pennies based on wager amount.

Happy New Year. Still a few hours away for me but a decent portion of the world has celebrated the new year already. I wish you all the best for 2023 and remember to get health checks throughout 2023 so nothing creeps up on you or your families.
Quite right, health is wealth is a very popular axiom, and it is true; we cannot use Bitcoin if we aren't healthy, we can do prolly nothing if our health fails us, so health checks are very important in detecting problems early and finding possible solutions to them.

Yahoo our hearts are definitely solidly with you, get ready for a fun-filled 2023 because soon i believe everything will be over and you will be fine and healthy. Happy New Year to every bitcointalk user, in sound health and wealth.
Maybe 2024 will be fun filled. I had open heart surgery in 2021 and it took at least 6 months to heal up where I could even sleep on my side, let alone go out in public feeling ok. I am assuming this surgery will be 6 months or longer as well. So depending on when the surgery happens, it'll be late 2023-end of 2023 before I'm feeling healed up.

I went to the dentist for 1-2 teeth I was having an issue with and they recommended full extraction to avoid future issues. I really felt like I didn't have a choice. So, I said fuck it, let's get it done.
I heard or may be it's a saying that most of the celebrities (Hollywood) go for smile makeover which involves extraction of their teeth, teeth capped, edges the teeth all in a complete straight line, triangle at the base of the tooth and many more dental makeover. It's not a big deal. You will live long without it.

How is your health overall now?
You can google and see a load of celebrities that They don't stop there though. Facelifts, nosejobs, chin tucks, breast implants, botox, and more. That's why they're referred to as pretty people I guess, but I'd rather not spend $250k to look fake as fuck.

Far as overall health, with my heart in the shape it is in I am not very active right now. All my body works fine, I just don't have the energy to be up and about. Lot's of resting until the surgery.

>snip
There are lots of people wishing you well now, yahoo62278. I also don't want to miss conveying my sympathy for what you are experiencing right now. May all the prayers that have been conveyed come true, and may this new year be a good stepping stone for your recovery.

I don't expect your story to end here, I mean we really hope you keep going through all the health issues and have a longer and bigger story of healing. Happy new year to you, yahoo62278.
Thank you

Oh Helena Yu, you big sweetheart, you!  This thread is obviously supposed to be a highlight reel of bitcointalk in 2022, and my name change is trivial compared to most of the other things on your list--but thanks for remembering the details of how it happened.  Theymos wasn't rewarding me for doing post history reviews, though.  Hispo and/or Power Glove contacted him unbeknownst to me, and they really did me a solid on that.

Preev going down really sucked, because I use it to check bitcoin's price almost exclusively.  And there's even a silver round produced by Anonymous Mint that has a QR code linking to their site.  It'd be a shame if that particular round suddenly had a useless design (but it's still a cool BTC collectible).

Memory fails, as does the motivation to search.  Was that charity fiasco involving three forum members in 2022, or was it last year?  I think that ought to have made the list, because those members were otherwise trusted and went down in flames as a result of the mismanagement of the funds entrusted to them.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5376475.msg58687880#msg58687880 The charity fiasco was Dec 2021. Technically 2021 but so late in the year I wouldn't say it shouldn't or couldn't be included in 2022 review. 1/3 members involved reputations had been salvaged and I had hopes for the other 2 to do the same but that didn't happen.

As some of you know, I have been dealing with a lot in my life over the past 2 years. Honestly, I have been dealing with it a lot longer, but the last 2 years have been where it has gotten a little scarier than the rest.
~~~~

I am very sorry for what happened to you
I also hope two things
- that your intervention goes well
- that many others learn to monitor their health

Yesterday I queued for 12 hours at the hospital to check if I had broken a finger (locked in the car door)
checks are always good to do

Thank you, I hope it goes well too. Was the finger broken?

fine thanks
nothing compared to what you will get dear yahoo
in the past maybe we had some arguments, we didn't hang out much we talked about it a lot
I don't write much in international zones
I'm not writing to +1
I don't write to say "Christmas" phrases

I really write to wish you all the best


and to urge anyone (as you said) to do checks
Thank you

bacteria possibly living on plaque which could cause problems for the heart via the bloodstreams.
Yeah, that was the first thought I had when he mentioned getting the extractions but I didn't want to bring it up--and I also assumed yahoo62278 informed his dentist about what's going on with his heart and that the dentist would take that into account.  But at this point I think the risk of infection has diminished (maybe Dr. Leo could weigh in on that, because I haven't researched it).

Hope your holiday was good, yahoo62278.  Still sending positive vibes your way!
I went to the dentist for 1-2 teeth I was having an issue with and they recommended full extraction to avoid future issues. I really felt like I didn't have a choice. So, I said fuck it, let's get it done.

That was a hell of a read, literally...

Despite the fact that the cause of your story is shocking and saddening, it also goes to show what kind of place this forum can bein a very positive way thanks to your openness and your very touching and plausible words about how things can go in life.

Too many people tend to take too many things for granted, at times me included. Reading your text made me think more than twice. You probably take nothing for granted anymore as you are constantly confronted with your physical problem(s) and I can imagine what you must be going through mentally.

My feeling is, and I can only speak for myself, that when things go well for a certain period of time I forget to remind myself with reasonable frequency that health and luck is temporary.

Your words come with maximum transparency and seriously, I thought my life is fucked when I had a toothache a while ago over night before I was able to see the dentist the next afternoon. Reading that you got 28 teeth extracted slightlyput things into perspective again...

There aren't many things to say here for me I guess as I haven't experienced anything concerning heart diseases so far. One thing is for sure though: I truly thank you for your openness as it proves that sharing such personal stories should become more of a status quo within our society. People are thankful for it, people benefit from it, especially those who might be concerned with similar problems. But also those who find themselves in an overall comparable desperate situation.
And the very few who might abuse honesty and transparency to stigmatize someone as weak will only lose the battle against empathy when more people open up about all kinds of problems.

@yahoo62278, I sincerely hope everything turns out the best way possible for you and I would be more than happy to keep reading your posts here for many, many years to come. Despite these difficult conditions, I hope you can still enjoy NYE with a sense of bravery and the ambition to consider the race for health started, to win it and to make 2023 a positive turning point in your life for the better! My thoughts are with you!

All the very best wishes!
Thank you, I watched college football for nye. Fun day right?

As some of you know, I have been dealing with a lot in my life over the past 2 years. Honestly, I have been dealing with it a lot longer, but the last 2 years have been where it has gotten a little scarier than the rest.

I had made it to almost 40 years old and had started to make a name for myself here on the forum. I also started feeling a little different as far as health went. I had noticed my heart was always racing without anything to make that happen. Wasn't doing drugs, wasn't drinking heavily, nor was I abusing any pills. I decided to go get myself checked out. I was diagnosed with heart failure myself. At the time I had piss poor insurance and I feel like some doctors treat patients differently based on whether they do or do not have insurance and the type of insurance they have. If you're a rich person with great insurance or cash, you're gonna get the best treatment. If not, well I feel like you get shit on.

After reading your story, I was reminded of the story of my grandfather, whom I love very much.
This is almost the same as my grandfather's story in 2015 in July, my grandfather's disease was also heart failure and our situation at that time only had the lowest level of insurance, namely class 5 in the hospital, while the care my grandfather needed was level two and one, in the end, we just relied on the money in our savings and sold almost 80% of my family assets to save him, but in the end, we couldn't save him because the operating costs for my grandfather were not enough and the insurance didn't want to cover it because it was very expensive, 1 week after that my grandfather died.


Hopefully, you can be healthy and live your daily life like when you were young, may God always give you health and 2023 will be a bright year for you.
Thank you

Not everything goes as doctors hope, but it's great that they don't give up. Thank you for posting but you'll have to have the wine alone. I'm no longer allowed to have alcohol, even after a transplant.
You also have to be optimistic, the doctor will try to do his best for your recovery. Do you believe in the power of prayer? We are here always praying for your safety.
You are not alone, forum members are always supporting you so you can get out of the operating room safely. God will hear the prayers of good people and will give healing to good people.
Thank you. Not a prayer person myself but I don't mind if others are and want to pray.

Hello yahoo62278! I don't really know you as I'm new here but from what I've read about you speaks volume of the kind of person you are and how you've affected lives positively on this forum. I know you're going through a difficult time right now but I want you to know that God has your back and the ugly situation in your life is just a bend and not an end. There's going to be light at the end of the tunnel, and you're going to pull through this. From the bottom of my heart, I pray that you have a smooth and successful surgical operation. We'll keep praying for you.
Thank you

We all hope that You will come back strong.

The new year is here and I wish you that this year brings you a lot of health and happiness with you. We wish that during this year 2023, you will live a healthier life and forget about that last painful year.

Life is filled with up and downs, happiness and sorrow and i believe now is the time for you to get all the happiness and healthiness in life.

Happy New year to you, Yahoo62278 !!
Thank you and Happy New Year

I don't see that coming too. I was in the impression that Hawks will protect their home court crowd, but LeBron comes out and bring
the challenge in his shoulder.

What a nice gift to himself in his 38th birthday, I see in him that he's really aiming to break Kareem's record and that's not by far with
how he is playing the game.

Stat's wise he's really capable in breaking that record.

It's worth noting that many players his age no longer have the health or desire to perform so well. So the outcome of this game is just another proof that LeBron is a phenomenal player. As for Kareem's record, LeBron only has 527 points left to break it. That means if LeBron continues to perform as well as he has in recent games, it will take him less than 20 games to become the all-time scoring player in NBA history.
Lebron will break the record no doubt. Doesn't matter when, but I think records should be broken down by decades or changed when new rules are introduced. Kareem had played 3/4ths of his career by the time 3 pointers were added in the NBA not that he would have shot many, but Lebron has shot and made a ton.

Newbie registered an account on the forum and he writes about his casino account in the first post. I think the OP wants to attract the attention of forum members and then sell them a casino account. I don't trust the OP and I urge caution. You risk losing your money by buying other people's accounts.
Ya think? What was your 1st clue? Of course the guy is looking to sell his account Mr Obvious. Hopefully noone is dumb enough to inquire about the price as they will just be wasting their money when bc game figures it out and closes the account.
2092  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling For Fun - What Does This Mean To You? on: December 31, 2022, 10:04:35 AM

Here Is What Gambling For Fun Mean To Me
To me, gambling for fun simply means - gambling, with hopes of making profit, but with the consciousness that if the profit does not come, I choose not to react negatively to the loss, or allow the loss way me down or make me feel bad, I just focus/put/fix my mind on the fun I had playing the game rather than focus or fix my mind on the money I lost.


This is a great way to look at it. Whether it be live or online you want to focus on having a good time. Not feeling cheated. If live, maybe have a few drinks and enjoy the scenery rather than focus on whether you are a big winner or big loser.
2093  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: December 30, 2022, 09:55:51 PM
The Nets have been really impressive lately, and it looks like the new head coach is doing well, but I'm still skeptical about this team. The problem is that no one knows what will come to Irving's mind in the future. Don't get me wrong, Irving performs well at the moment, and he's a significant contributor to the Nets' wins. However, we should keep in mind that he did some irresponsible things before, and there is no guarantee he won't let his team down again.
Unless you're a fan of the Nets, any letdown that happens shouldn't bother you. I think it's a positive thing to see the team performing so well. Ben Simmons is a surprise lately as well. Noone even knew if he was ever gonna play for the Nets. Averaging over 8 points a game with 6 rebounds and 6 assists, not too shabby honestly. Not much more needs added for him to be averaging a triple double nightly.

Nets are a shocker in the NBA currently.
I feel like they are not a shocker because if you looked at them on paper you will see that they were actually a much better team, and right now they are clinging to the last ounce of wins they could hopefully get.

Normally just at the start of last year they had Kyrie and Harden and KD at the same time, and that was an insane team that could have been champions, what happened? They traded away Harden! Which was a bad bad move, and now we are talking about a guy who did 8-6-6 stat line as "good enough" when the alternative was Harden, who could have scored 20+ and assisted 10+ at the same time. Bad situation for them all around to be in this position to begin with.
Harden had more bad games than good games while he was a Net IMO.

I say they're a shocker with all the off court bs surrounding the team. Kylie and the antisemitic crap. Then Simmons and his mental health. For them to get past that stuff and work so well as a unit is surprising.

Thank you, I hope it goes well too. Was the finger broken?

Your story will be a great testimony.

sir @yahoo62278, I'd just love to quicken your mind with a few words of faith taken from the holy Bible, in Luke 8:43–48 and John 11:1–44.


Our God is a good God; he did not allow you to die after you lost your mother at age 17, you did not die after going through surgery that resulted in cutting out most of your aorta to replace it with some medical tubing, and you did not die even when water surrounded your heart. Sir @yahoo62278, your case may be hereditary, but I pray for your healing; your life shall not be cut short. According to Luke 8:43–48, "a woman had been subject to bleeding for twelve years, and no one could heal her." The day she encountered Jesus, the bleeding that she had suffered for 12 years stopped. I don't know about your religious life, but I pray that the healing hands of the Lord God come upon you. You are healed, you are favored, and you are blessed, Amen.


John 11:1–44: So a man named Lazarus was very sick, so his sister sent a message to Jesus Christ, telling him that the one he loved was sick, but Jesus said, "The sicknesses will not end in death." Sir or ma'am, your illness will never end in death, in Jesus' name, Amen.

Going further, before Jesus could get to Lazarus, he had already died, but Jesus prayed, and power came from above and awakened Lazarus; after that, he lived for more years.

@yahoo62278, Your case is different because you are still alive, and you will continue to live, fulfilling your heart's desires. I pray for you; your system will respond remarkably to every treatment you receive. Through God's miracle of good health, may he deliver you and give you good health, amen.


  Dr. B_S
Thank you

Yahoo62278, you have told something which no one ever thought. No one could have imagined what could be going on with you and also it shows that human being is helpless against nature.

I do hope you get better after your final surgery early next year.

What you have been going through is something that only you can feel and understand. Once you will be back to normal life and this phase of life is over, what changes will you want to make in life?  I am asking this because I know people who are in such situations knows the reality of life and their advice/words mean a lot as they speak from the heart.
Thank you. Far as changes go, with a heart transplant life will be completely different. I will have to eat 1st, I cannot go to buffets anymore, I have to ask to make sure but I may not even be able to eat out, along with tons of medications for the rest of my life.


@Yahoo62278 Sir I couldn't stop my tears after seeing your life story. If man does not manage his youth properly then he has to face some sufferings in later life.  It is normal for germs to nest in the human body.  But there are certain rules of food at the speed of people's movement, which if followed, the body will be very fit.  But @yahoo62278 used to consume alcohol, smoking and other drugs from his youth which are very harmful to health.

@yahoo62278 mentions caution to people here.  Because he told people to stay away from this drug by showing his life story even in great pain.  Because here he didn't mention asking for money he said I can cover my treatment with whatever assets and insurance I have.  But if I live a decent life while I'm on treatment, I may be in a crunch for gas, food, rent, etc.  And he has a life insurance from which he will be silent on a large scale his insurance will play a large role in the treatment.

And when I read your life story I started joking myself.  And every morning I run 3 km road.  Exercise is a very beneficial health strategy that keeps health away from disease.  And I keep myself away from smoking and drinking and advise other people to stay away from drinking too.

 finally, I want to say a little more, if Yahoo sir is in trouble, then we will help by failing little by little.  We will allocate some amount of wealth from whoever has the wallet for Sir.

Health is wealth.  We will take care of our own health.  Smiley

Thank you

How about the Nets winning 10 straight. That seemed like a pipe dream a few weeks ago. It seems like they’re starting to get it figured out....
Yes impressive streak after all the drama and toxicity around the team. It's probably the result of players being happy with their current system. I guess credit must be given to head coach Vaughn as well.

The Nets have been really impressive lately, and it looks like the new head coach is doing well, but I'm still skeptical about this team. The problem is that no one knows what will come to Irving's mind in the future. Don't get me wrong, Irving performs well at the moment, and he's a significant contributor to the Nets' wins.

I'm not knocking the idea but 1 would assume everything on your site is available by doing a little work. Researching all past results etc. Now, at 10$ or euros per month, you definitely save the consumer a lot of the legwork, so I agree that it is not too much to ask potential customers.

Will all sports be offered or only a couple?

What drives me to gamble isn't the I want to win big money, but rather i'm bored and gambling gives me a little boost on the day. Very few people are going to get filthy rich gambling due to the fact that they are scared to death to take a big risk. Scared money doesn't make money is a true statement.

Sorry to ask boss, but how long will this loyalty program last? And does it mean the campaign will no longer run?
