I would have understood if Arsenal played much better but just got unlucky, that happens in football, just recently City had 25+ shots and scored only once, that type of unlucky situation could have happened and I would totally understand that.

But Arsenal didn't even play all that well, it didn't become all that obvious for that and that's the trouble for me, why didn't they played that well and I think that should be the most important part of it we should consider the situation to be a little bit different in this case. I understand why people would have trouble with it, but that doesn't mean that we should be considering Arsenal as unlucky, they just straight up played terrible and that's their problem, they should fix something next time.
I did not view the match between Arsenal and the porto but when I checked up in the social media, Arsenal fans were being trolled that they played 90 mins without recording a short on target. Honestly that is so ridiculous to behold. Was it that Port defence was too formidable or Arsenal forwarders were just weak.

I had checked that the line up and discovered that all the forwards played except Jesus who is injured. Saka and Marttineli were there but did nothing so serious to change the narrative. I was surprised to see Harverts at the top 9 throughout the match while other strikers like Nketiah who is more energetic was on the bench.

I have just looked up for the Europa League fixtures tomorrow and discovered that no English club is there. What really happened, are they all eliminated? I have not been active following Europa League and as well as Champions League since matches United got eliminated.

West Ham, Brighton and Liverpool are already classified in Europa League, you'll see them in the next round  Smiley
Thank you for this information. I have thought how all the English clubs have suddenly been eliminated from the Europa League. I was literally sad Grin


The odds for over 2.5 goals seems too low, over 3.5 goals is more worth to bet.
If you put much attention to odds, you will definitely make a bad bet. Just because the odds for 2.5 is low, you are now forcing him to pursue odds rather than make a natural bet. It is not nice to alternate predictions, if the odds are not favourable, you could just forget that bet.

Your telegram notifier is great if it does those jobs you listed in OP. I haven't used them because I am not that kind of a forum popular guy. I could go all weeks without being mentioned by anyone. But if someone quotes me, I have a way to know about it. For merit notification, I don't think that I need that. I can always check who merited me whenever I come online.

Would you use a website, setup email or browser notifications, etc... for all the stuff I wrote above?
Email notification might be spammy.
Website might be expensive to maintain.
Browser notification could be the second nice option after telegram notification.
284  Other / Meta / Re: Icopress ' Merit Source Application 🚩 on: February 22, 2024, 04:47:11 PM

Honestly, I don't doubt Icopress's objectivity because he is an old member who has contributed a lot to this forum, but with him as a merit source there is the possibility:
Objectivity has nothing to do with forum age. A newbie can just arrive the forum, read the rules, understand them and be more objective than someone who is here for 4 years.

~ As a selling point and perhaps sending more merit to the client's account
Most of his clients are project owners who does not make posts day in day out. Even if he sends just a merit to enable his clients upload images, that's not a problem.

~ Send merit more often to campaign participants because he see their campaign participants' posts every week
If the posts he will send merits to are quality posts, there's no problem. Besides, those campaign participants are still members of BTT and deserve ranking up.

If I look at campaigns that have merit source participants, usually those client accounts get more merit and rank up faster compared to campaigns that are not participated in by merit sources.

This is also not a problem, in as much as their posts are quality. The people that benefits from The Sceptical Chemist post review rank up than others, they are just lucky and it shouldn't bitter anyone.

Just checked the site out and it looks pretty dull and boring just like the ANN itself. You and your team should have put more effort into creating a great looking site frankly speaking op.

It's really tough for decentralised gambling sites to prosper in the crypto gambling world due to liquidity issues etc. Just my 2 cents.
I will prefer for any project owner to set their website in order, have a good marketing plan before launching a project. The Ann thread should have a nice imagery designs to attract people. There's competition everywhere, so they need to stand out. Although, about web3 (decentralized) casino, it is not that popular as I consider it still growing and this is the more reason better efforts must be put in place.

I join others to welcome you to the forum and do enjoy your business as you interact with like and unique minds to prosper your business.

I'll place this multi:




It's not my usual bet (on goals under or over), but I'm confident that Sporting is making a lot of goals in this season and will play at home, while Qarabag vs Braga first match ended in a match with 6 goals
Let's see if I'm lucky haha
Total odds: 2.83
Nice selection and it is likely gonna play. I know that young boys used to score alot and also concede alot in their local league. I have not studied them in the Europa League. But if you have tracked them from their last matches, it is possible to happen.

Napoli Vs Barcelona 1st leg
I just looked up to the flash scores today and discovered that there is a very nice fixture in the Champions League between the Barcelona of Spanish la Liga and Napoli or serie A. I tried my best to come up with a prediction but it wasn't actually an easy thing for me to do. But then I still have to make an attempt.

It is understandable that both teams are not in their good form this season. While Napoli is troubled by the exit of their last season coach, Barcelona is troubled by a the history of non performance of Xavi in the European competitions. Barcelona has a more stable team but Napoli has more threatful players and have more courage about the Champions League. I might not be able to predict tonight's score but I will predict that Napoli will qualify above Barcelona.
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you won a bet with your last cash? on: February 21, 2024, 01:50:42 PM

Although, I had more money on  my account that I can use for transporting my self back to my house if incase I lost the physical cash, that was why I wasn't afraid to stake with it.
This has just made the narrative different. I had thought that you have gambled with your last money whether in account or physical cash because that is what the title suggests. Meanwhile, no one should gamble with their last cash for whatever reason. Always gamble with what you can afford to lose.

Assuming you made this post with a pictorial evidence of the $10 lost bet and the $1 won bet, it would have been more believable. I have to option than to treat this your post as the everyday generic and made up posts.
289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 21, 2024, 01:24:19 PM
Do you really think Manchester city would be punished?

I am waiting for developments in this case. I read the latest news about their case awaiting trial in court. So far, the news only ends there, they don't say when the court trial will be held. This case should be revealed openly, including court proceedings. This has to do with the EPL and its credibility. There should be no different process for fellow EPL clubs. Everyone must have the same rights and obligations. The Man City case seems to be going on behind closed doors and not many media are reporting this news. In fact I read the source from January.

Source: https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/39379562/why-secrecy-man-city-ffp-case-damaging
Did Manchester City commit another crime or it is the outstanding one that we all know about. I am asking because if it is the outstanding one we all know about it means that it has delayed for a very long time. Although I have not followed the media recently to know if there is another case. But then what I really need to say is that Manchester City is not above to be punished. Earlier this season Everton received their punishment which reduce their point to the relegation side and they are still struggling till date. In the serie A, Juventus faced such punishment and they took it in a good faith. So, Manchester City and the English football league management should not be a difference. If Manchester City is found coupable I think their English Premier League title of that season would also be retrieved. I do not believe in media trial, whatever be the outcome, we will all know.

Nearly all of the responses I get to nearly everything that I say is incredibly offensive. This is because the people here are braindead sickos. Bitcoin attracts sickos because Bitcoin has a mining algorithm that was never designed to advance science. This means that nearly every response to everything I say needs to be looked at by a moderator because the garbage people on this site are horrible.

-Joseph Van Name Ph.D.
How do you know that you are always reported, is there a kind of notification from your end anytime you are reported?

If I were to be a moderator, and 100% of the reports against you are correct. I'll just bookmark your profile, whenever I'm bored I'll login my account and start deleting your posts that are substandard or controversial... weird? Grin
Op, just do the right thing, here is big enough to accommodate everyone from all crannies of the world.
291  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcointalk rules and gudie for newbies on: February 21, 2024, 01:02:10 PM
Thanks to all, I have seen the rules i never knew it was so easy
to get it, and I have never enter some places in bitcointalk that why I want to know the rules so that I won't make mistake, so thanks guys.

I hope you got an answer to your question. Therefore, I recommend locking your topic to avoid further repetition of the same thing in users' posts. If you have more questions on this topic, you can always open a topic and ask your question on the theme.
Just needed clarification. If OP locks this topic and later run into confusion and wants to ask questions related to the thread he already locked. Will it be wise to create a new thread because the first thread was locked, or he will simply unlock the present thread and bump it with his question? I asked because you are a staff, and I don't seem to clearly understand the bolded part of your post.

I am not even sure that OP will come back to read these answers given him.
That's often the modus operandi of this set of users. They open threads and disappear without engaging in them.
Surprisingly, Op returned to read the answers.
292  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can we act against scammers, hackers and criminals? on: February 20, 2024, 05:57:13 PM

We need to find solutions how to stop scammers, hackers and criminals
But the sad reality is that we cannot stop scammers, criminals as you have said above. Generally there are hackers in the internet and hackers have been in existence before they advent of cryptocurrency. But the existence of cryptocurrency has aided the job of hackers such that it does not appear difficult again for them to hide the funds when they succeed to steal it. Cryptocurrency is characterized by scam, the best we can do is to learn how not to fall victim to scams. But stopping scam is something that is unachievable, no matter the level of security and enacted laws.
These scammers are most times smarter than their victims because they are innovative, looking for new ways to scam. What we really need to do is to learn how to counter their strategies as they invent them.
293  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcointalk rules and gudie for newbies on: February 20, 2024, 05:35:54 PM
Am new to bitcointalk for some time now and I have been searching for the rules so I don't know where to see it, please I need rule and guideline as a newbie
You were too lazy because you even don't want to use Search to find answers for your question.

Look above your thread, in Beginners & Help board, you will see Newbies - Read before posting that has almost all you need as a newbie.

Did you spend some seconds to look at it before creating this topic and after making about 30 posts in the forum?
Still better he asked, some would play ignorance until they are eventually banned. Being late doesn't really hurt more than being a victim. Again, Op might also not know how to use the search function of the forum. Most times that I assume that people know how to use every forum or website, I was wrong. You will be surprised to see someone who finds it even difficult to scroll the mouse. The world is fast developed, but many are behind. That is the reason we need to be dynamic in order to accommodate every kind of people we meet online.

I am not even sure that OP will come back to read these answers given him.
294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: February 17, 2024, 03:54:27 PM
If gambling is all about luck only, I would tend to agree with your friend partially but now it is not about luck, there is some kind of skill or experience needed. Even if it is only by luck, even if you don't gamble everyday, you could still get lucky and win. He presented the story like there's a number of luck associated with a particular day and when you don't gamble everyday, your lucky stance reduces. This is wrong.

Another thing is that, if you do not analyze your game very well and play anyhow you want daily and depend only of luck, the person that analyzed very well will win more than you gambling carelessly everyday.
295  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you beleive in the concept of "Luck"? on: February 17, 2024, 03:34:12 PM
Hello everyone!

Recently, I was thinking about the concept of luck in my life and how lucky I am. And I wondered how other people, especially gamblers, perceive this concept.

It would be interesting to read your thoughts.

You can answer these questions, for example:

  • Do you believe in Luck? If so, how do you describe your perception of this concept?
  • How lucky do you think you are from 1 to 10?
  • Does your sense of luck in regular life correlate with your luck in gambling?
  • Do you believe that some special things or actions can increase your luck?

And do not hesitate to share any other thoughts about it. Let's discuss!
This is a story of an imaginary gambler who believes in luck but does not know how lucky he is or will be. He resorts to saying if Mr. A is lucky, why won't I be lucky? This will make them lose big money and if possible become addicted. If Mr Bob can gamble and win, I am more intelligent than Bob and I am more exposed than him. If he should gamble and win $1k, it means I can win much more than him if I gamble. Things doesn't happen that way, but the sad reality is that, this is why many people gamble more than their expectations.

For the question of what to do to increase luck. Is this why some people go spiritual in order to win? Maybe to increase their luck. But, does this really work?

I bin wan create this post after I read am for politics and society. My mind tell me to check weda person don already create similar thread before I come see this one.

Tru tru, the way wey our newbies don dey demarket Nigeria no good. E no start today but e don dey worse. Which kind wahala be this. I check the person profile and see say him don already post for local board, why him no open the topic for the local board. E dey bad. Our name no good for online, abeg make una no spoilam the more.

after this na reporting I go start to dy do,
You no suppose report that kind post, no be spam. For the fact say you no like am or e dey spoil the reputation of Nigeria no mean say na spam.

What I meant is that you people have no right to create a post that newbie is painting the country bad when the economy is not good. Go to the thread and make valid points instead of bringing it up on the local board on another thread. You people can also talk about the solutions. I do not have time to post anymore on this thread that is not useful for me to discuss. This thread is not helpful. Go there and make useful posts that are helpful.
For the fact say freedom of speech dey, we suppose use our head. People from US dey defend their country till the end and one person wey no use him head dey dey paint us black more. E no go well abeg. Just read the title only see how e sound

297  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Are most scammers from Nigeria? on: February 17, 2024, 03:06:50 PM
You stated it right. It looks like the Government over there fucked up it's citizens and therefore there are high unemployment rates. If I am right, Nigeria is the highest populated country in Africa. If you add that to the fact that Government does not care about its Citizens, what you get is youth who have given up on looking for employment and instead resorting to scamming and stealing.
We can see similar cases in countries like India and I think Bangladesh.
In response to your post, I have two things to say;
  • You are correct about the government an economy of Nigeria. The country is a blessed country with mineral resources but due to gross mismanagement, those resources are not used to take care of the country and her citizens. This has made some Nigerians venture into illegal means to earn a living but not more than some other countries
  • I am a Nigerian but I have witnessed more than twice where other country men will commit a crime and claim they are Nigerians in order to preserve their country name. Yes, I am honest about this. They claim to belong where is already trending for crime 
298  Economy / Reputation / Re: A clear change in airfinex's posting pattern. on: February 17, 2024, 02:50:28 PM
airfinex is obviously an alt account, which until now had been characterized by playing a role of "vigilante" so to speak in forum issues. Most of his posts were written in Reputation and he was the first to draw attention to Ratimov's plagiarism, for example.
Firstly, everyone knows that airfinex is someone's alt. The problem is knowing whose alt it is. I do not think that the account changed hands because you have already said the kinds of posts he makes which he has not deviated from. For instance, his most recent post is a vigilant type of post and about forum issues. This shows that his interest hasn't changed. The recent post was made in reputation which also is his favourite board. The only new thing is that he is trying to enroll in signature campaign and has not been successful. Then, he decided to create some drama about campaign so that he would likely be accepted when next he applies for a campaign.
When I discovered that airfinex was the first person to call out Ratimov for plagerism, I knew a very respected forum member is behind the account.

I was not able watch the champions league meeting between Bayern Munich and Lazio. But I was somewhat disappointed by the result. Seeing Bayern Munich loss was not comfortable with me. I have thought that they are going to win Lazio in their own home but the reverse became the case. Many of us are saying that Bayern will win in Germany even with larger goal margin. But what I can say is that nobody can predict football excellently. There could be a problem with Bayern and they will end up to play a draw with Lazio and if that happens, we will understand that they are ending the season trophyless because Alonso and his guys are not giving Bayern a chance to settle.
300  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 17, 2024, 02:27:20 PM
The home team are doing very well but making use of the little opportunity is the problem with Liverpool doing everything they can to get more goals just to be comfortable is what Klopp is urging the visitors to do. Second goal and they (Liverpool) are still pressing to get more and I find out that the confident of Liverpool is growing in every touches they make.
Brentford need something special to get a goal and ones that happens Liverpool will reduce their pressure, I still see this game ending in a draw despite the score line being 0-2 in favor of Liverpool.
As I said before, trailing 0-1 in the first half will make Brentford take the initiative to play attacking football, so they will have more opportunities to score a goal back. But in return, it will make their defense more open and make it possible for Liverpool to have many gaps to launch counterattacks. A consequence that Brentford must take because that is the only way for them to get points. Even if they fail to get points, at least they have tried their best.
Without being told, I had already known that every club that Liverpool will face from henceforth will receive it very hard. Liverpool has clearly seen the pressure that Manchester City is giving them. So, they do not actually need anyone to tell them to sit up for the challenge ahead.

Besides, Brentford of this season is not the Brentford of las season that we all know can do wonders. Having 2 goals against Brentford is a big disadvantage to them. They can obviously not fight more to draw because they are dealing with a bigger team.
