The train is 1001 wagon long,
It also has 2 levels (sometimes 3).
One level where people live and one technical level below with all the machinery and stuff.

... And for the sweet golf cart express lane. I'm about 7-8 episodes in now and they just said it was 10 miles long.

Sometimes it seems way too wide to be an actual train. Like the "night car" for example. But I'm willing to suspend my disbeliefs for the sake of the show.


Doesn't show up in my Netflix. Maybe its a regional thing.

I've been watching Penn & Teller: Fool Us lately. You're going to love it if your into magic tricks. The host is funny as hell too.

Yeah its a bit campy but worth watching from time to time. Penn and Teller are indeed amazing. They've been at it forever.

I told you side chain has to be an old timer here.
My mind goes towards one-above-all.

In their posts, Side chain does mention CH's various alts as having been wronged a suspicious amount of times, but I think this person is even more nefarious than them. CH is just a giant shit talker, incapable of hiding who they are. This person, on the other hand, committed a criminal act. I hope they are identified and removed from whatever campaigns they may currently be in, and at this point, I'm thinking its probably more than one.
4303  Economy / Reputation / Re: BitcoinGirl.Club hacked? on: August 03, 2020, 01:58:36 PM
I'm leaning towards yes he was hacked.

In the video, he exposed way more information about his PMs than was necessary, including PMs that have nothing to do with the situation. And taking time to highlight lines of text that are clearly visible anyway? Lingering on points that really only mattered to the troll(s)?

Another thing that makes me think he was hacked is this (from the video):



BitcoinGirl.club quite often uses these non-forum smileys... On some browsers they show up fine and on others they show up as gibberish. Since we are looking at a video that was supposedly taken from BitcoinGirl.club's computer, why can't he see his own smileys?

So the next question is, who is Side chain, and then how did he get BitcoinGirl.club's password?

This is probably a decent clue:

Quote from: Side chain
I don't want to be blacklisted by yahoo of course.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5220203.msg53727618#msg53727618

He's also somewhat technical minded, having inquired about installing Epochtalk.

Well, Mr. Moron2067, it's not me.

You mean your first instinct after making an alt account isn't to quickly give it some merits so it can level up? Which sig campaign are you planning on entering it in eventually? Hope its not Chipmixer.

Kind of unbelievable. Unfortunately none of the new releases have helped the price of WAX as people are selling to buy BTC. I still hold out hope for its long-term future, however. There's a lot more to come.

Don't feed the troll please, he doesn't deserve serious answer for that drivel. Thnx.
IIRC this has already been discussed, LFC added Rohang to his trust network after this account countered Royce777's negative feedback and then he removed account from his trust network because account "wasn't reputable enough". Since then, account made exactly 1 post so they probably become "reputable enough"  Roll Eyes

No, c'mon. He made a mistake and corrected it. If he hadn't recognized it as a mistake then it would be a problem. But he did, well before OP made this post. Show's over.
4310  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: JETWIN CASINO HAS OFFICIALLY REFUSED TO PAY ANY OF MY 25,000 DOLLARS IN WINNINGS on: August 01, 2020, 03:21:27 PM
JEWIN HAS OFFICIALLY LOCKED  ME OUT OF MY ACCOUNT WITH OVER 25,000 DOLLARS NOT CASHED OUT. NO ONE WIL RESPOND TO ME THEY ARE STILL OPERATING I AM CRUSHED I JUST LIKE TO PLAY AT CASINOS I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO DEVESTATED OR FELT SO UNJUSTLY TARGETED. I DONT KNOW WHERE TO GO OR WHAT TO DO BUT I AM OPEN TO ANY SUGGESTIONS  Embarrassed

That really sucks. Still hard to believe the support would be such a scammy a-hole to you. Well, 2 casinos that I like and have never had any problems with personally (mind you I never bet big or won big) are:

betchain.com
bitcoinpenguin.com

The second one I'm sure allows U.S. players, the first one just maybe.

People are gonna say, "oh, but they also have bad reputations," and my answer is all casinos have user complaints about them. I don't gamble at casinos anymore but when I did I played at both occasionally over the course of a few years and nothing bad ever happened. So, make of that what you will.

Can you do me one small favor before you go? It would be good to put a warning flag on the account that opened the Jetwin thread here on the forum. That way people who visit the thread from here or anywhere on the internet will know that they are scammers. You can do this by first clicking here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;addflag=174244

and then choosing the middle option, "This user violated a casual or implied agreement with me, resulting in damages."

After clicking "Next", enter this thread as the flag reference:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5264451

Leaving the year/month is probably fine since you didn't assuredly get screwed over until August 1st. Then just check the box and click "Confirm". Thanks. This will help to warn others not to deposit money here.

yes this was done using my name on discord and on telegram and on gmail

I only escrow via pm here on bitcointalk.

I only use philipma1957 legendary account.

Thanks for clarifying. I was reminded of this thread when I saw you interacting with this guy. I think he is going to try to impersonate you on Telegram to conduct a mining equipment scam, so its good that you stated you only escrow through PM on Bitcointalk.

They threatened to close my account but have yet to do so I can still go on there and see my money I just cant touch it. I have lost hope and given up hope on the matter but if anyone had any suggestions please let me know

That's because you weren't actually speaking with Jetwin on Telegram, it was just some rogue scammer. I think the scammer was doing what is called "email spoofing" to make it look like you were receiving an email from the official Jetwin support but in reality you were receiving email from the scammer. That's why this guy was asking you to send him bitcoin and then your login credentials -- he obviously doesn't work for Jetwin.

I know it doesn't look good but just keep at it. I would try to contact them directly through the website if that is at all possible, it looks like they have a Live Chat feature. Perhaps they will one day allow you to withdraw something. Sorry we couldn't have been of more help.
4313  Other / Off-topic / Re: Recommend me something on Netflix on: July 31, 2020, 05:12:00 AM
The series is (in my opinion) much much better.

I'm 5 episodes in and it certainly does draw out the main premise in significant detail. You're right, its a good show -- there's a lot more at stake than with the movie as there is all this advanced plot and character development going on. I think the train is much bigger and longer than in the movie, which is cool but hard to fathom a train being a few miles long.
4314  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: REMINDER: Do NOT use "forum escrows" off-forum! on: July 31, 2020, 05:07:31 AM
A friendly bump of this topic as escrow scams continue to take place.

Never assume somebody you are dealing with on Telegram is the same person you are dealing with on the forum until after you receive confirmation on the forum. Better yet, just don't use Telegram to make escrow deals, or any deals at all, actually.
4315  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM] Sportsbet.io (Withholding funds) on: July 31, 2020, 05:05:20 AM
The exact criteria for a red tag comes down to this:
Quote
You think that trading with this person is high-risk.

No it comes down to this.
The system is for handling trade risk, not for flagging people for good/bad posts/personalities/ideas.
~snip~
 - Leave negative ratings if you actively think that trading with the person is less safe than with a random person.
 - Unstable behavior could very occasionally be an acceptable reason for leaving negative trust, but if it looks like you're leaving negative trust due to personal disagreements, then that's inappropriate. Ratings are not for popularity contests, virtue signalling, punishing people for your idea of wrongthink, etc.

I would not consider drawing conclusions from the ruling of an arbitrated dispute to be unstable behavior. So again unless these posters are simultaneously acting in bad faith regarding Trades/Services, I advocate for neutral tags to note  opinions on their behavior/opinions/posts.

That or we could start tagging people for typos and grammar. They could mess up the terms which makes them a risk to trade with.

That's my piece and the more I wrote I feel I needed to end it with this. I try not to tell people how to do things and seem to be having a harder time of it lately. This is my opinion, take it for that.  It's your feedback use it as you will, but there are guidelines.

What I quoted and what you quoted signify the same thing. You're leaping to conclude that the ratings would necessarily be based on personal disagreements when this isn't the case.

Stretching out the argument out to include red tags for "typos and grammar" serves no purpose -- you're headed down the straw man path which is counterproductive to discussion of the issue at hand.

The actual disagreement between us is whether or not the trust system should be used proactively. You're entitled to your opinion on that matter, but to assume contrary opinions necessarily fall into the basket of wanting to use red trust to punish people for disagreeing with them is a stretch.
4316  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][XCP] Counterparty - Pioneering Peer-to-Peer Finance - Official Thread on: July 31, 2020, 03:29:58 AM
I'm pretty sure the BTC on the Counterwallet DEX exchange is just a token with the name 'BTC' and not actual BTC.

Trading of BTC in the web UI version of Counterwallet was once possible but later it was disabled (github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterwallet/issues/560). BTC/XCP trading wasn't as simple as trading XCP assets, basically because XCP has no power over BTC and someone thought it would be too confusing for users.

It is the actual BTC. Reading through the github report you can see that the change was never actually implemented. The reason why BTC trading was up for removal was because you must keep the Counterwallet browser open during the entire exchange process or the order won't properly settle and gets rejected or hung up. This is counter-intuitive to how things work on every major crypto exchange, so it was deemed to be "too confusing." Ultimately, though, the change was never made.

I haven't tried to do it myself in several years, but that is the real BTC listed in the BTC/XCP pair. The last trade was made on June 26th so its probably still possible. What's not real is the token named "Bitcoin."

I'm not as nice as Royse777. Since both neymarjr12 and Sportsbet.io agreed to mediation this dispute is essentially resolved once the mediation concludes, one way or another. So anyone still fanning the flames will probably get a nice red note. Don't be that person.
Come on. You know that's a neutral at best. It's a comment on them as an individual and their posting/trolling.

The exact criteria for a red tag comes down to this:

Quote
You think that trading with this person is high-risk.

This definitely could signify somebody posting with less than honest intentions. Not sure why anybody would trade with an obvious throwaway sockpuppet account in the first place, but that doesn't preclude the warranting of a tag.

Buying XCP..
Selling Rare Pepes..

Bamp!

I just noticed there are sell orders of XCP for BTC on the Counterwallet exchange, starting at 0.00009 BTC. Its actually cheaper there than on its one remaining exchange, Zaif. Not sure what you're gonna do with it. Transacting is hella expensive right now.

At least the devs keep the Counterwallet servers up (most of the time).

Imagine some random lurker who doesn’t normally hang out here and landing on this page and reading that.
They’d be like “good lord, these bitcoiners are a nasty bunch!”
Lol

That's a scenario I used to envision more frequently when roach was still around. Now that silver and gold are up he'll probably be back to tell us how dumb we all are. Hope I didn't just cast some sort of reanimating jinx spell.
