83 hours left and counting. Anyone can win this with just a single entry. If you buy two entries, you'll have twice the chance of winning! (Aren't I good at math?)

Nope

with 100 participants if you have 1 ticket you get 1/100 chance. If you buy a second ticket you will get 2/101 which is not double. Tongue
Sorry but I had to contradict you. don't know why Cheesy

I said it tongue in cheek, but now I'll clarify with actual figures:

If you have no raffle credits and you buy one raffle credit, you in fact increase your chances of winning by 100%.


i thought going from 0% chance to anything would be much more than a 100% increase.

Again, I'll clarify:

Participating in this raffle versus not participating in this raffle, increases your chances of winning dramatically.

"In short, forget about 'Kony 2012'. World peace starts at home, not in an African nation controlled by Western governments. If you really want to make this world a better place, let's start 'Bush, Blair, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Obama etc., 2012'. Let's make them famous for their massive war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan, for the murder of up to 2 million Iraqi and Afghan civilians, and for the children who continue, to this day, to be blown to pieces by US soldiers and US 'drone' aircraft under the Imperial war of aggression known as the 'war on terror'."

My RSVP still stands. I will be there. I can't wait to meet you gentlemen.

You better be there.

No but they're really slow to deliver. I think they would've been better off keeping their mouth shut and not announce their product until they were capable of meeting all orders without 4 to 6 week delays. That and they also should not have dropped speculative performance hints. At least that's what I would've done if I was in their shoes.

Now that the trolls have been banished to their cruddy underground lairs and you've basked in the radiant glow of pure "I told you so" how about you close the thread Smiley

Oh gosh, drama. So this is what Matthew has done for the bitcoin community eh? I wondered what some troll in the Speculation section meant by that.

I don't quite get the "Matthew is to Atlas as ___________ is to Satoshi" logic though. (I only read back a few pages so far.)

-MarkM-


lolwut

If anyone wants to know what "I've done", they'll have to pry the information from the dead corpses of members of the DCAO, which by the way, is where the Bitcoin Magazine comes from.

Ok, you're starting to get creepy Bruno.
I think he was referring to the thread.

Thank God!

I hope.

Some sort of animated image.

No. Now go to hell while I continue hashing at 850Mh/s with a 5 minute plug-n-play cube.

You mean it's not up for more rational suggestions?  $12.10 USPS to Korea? Cheesy

Mathew N. Wright, millionaire. He owns a mansion, not in Nigger Creek, but in some White Haven. Cheesy

I find your choice of words revolting. I am a billionaire, get it straight.
4474  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitscalper back to business on: March 12, 2012, 05:36:40 AM
Matthew, I think you should release those chat logs you had with Bitscalper.

What's the point? The only thing in them is more evidence of his unprofessional and dangerous operations, his constant bluffing about his abilities, constant name dropping, and general scammy attitude.

People here are only concerned about the facts-- where is there money. The logs don't help them find that out.

Can you both be so sure you wouldn’t be at the top of the rankings list?

Social experimentation is the most entertaining of exercises. Who cares if I'd be on the top of the list. It'd be useful and entertaining, and that's what I live for.
4477  Other / Meta / Re: [Feature Request] "Ignored by # peoples" besides usernames (10 BTC bounty) on: March 12, 2012, 04:38:09 AM
The idea came from reading this thread : People paid by banking elite to troll this Forum? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=68309.msg796704#msg796704

I've noticed that I now have many speculation thread with ~90% of people ignored.

I think there are many of big posters who only try to raise their post-count to give appearance having some reputation.

I wouldn't be surprised if some 2000-3000 post account would end up being sold to the highest bidders.

SUBs such as Specu... and off-topic are very prone to non-sense postings.  I have no idea why off topic threads should be tolerated if off-topic post are not.

I am committing to a 5BTC bounty to develop the "Ignored by # peoples" feature besides usernames.


Matthew N. Wright is willing to contribute another 5BTC



Total : 10.0000000 BTC

Agreed and witnessed.

So Just now, I am committing to a 5BTC bounty to have a "Ignored by # peoples" feature besides usernames.

Awesome idea. I up the bounty another 5BTC, to 10 BTC. Make a new thread about this please (unless you ignored me too  Cry)
4479  Other / Meta / Re: People paid by banking elite to troll this Forum? on: March 12, 2012, 03:28:38 AM

oh my GOD. HOW DID YOU FIND THAT. Erase that immediately, it violates my copyright.
4480  Other / Meta / Re: People paid by banking elite to troll this Forum? on: March 12, 2012, 03:17:52 AM
I would have thought the "elite" would not deign to lower themselves to the level of bitcoin as it would be easy for them to be dismissive (arrogance or ignorance).  I don't notice an overt bias in the trolling against bitcoin, but then my own bias might filter that out (ref Holliday filtering how he reads things occasionally.)

They "lowered" themselves enough to prosecute a 60 something year old hippie for making silver coins, and bitcoin is more threatening than Liberty Dollar ever was.
Oh, you mean the hippie (Bernard von NotHaus) who ignored Article I, Section 8, Clause 5 of the Constitution of his own country that states that the power to coin money and to regulate the value of it is delegated to Congress, and went ahead and mixed Liberty Dollars into the current money of the United States since 1998 to try to limit reliance on, and to compete with, United States currency, which is illegal?

I love how you think the means justify the ends.
