741  Economy / Gambling / Re: CoinBingo.co | Free 1000 Bits GIVEAWAY | 75 ball Bingo | Realtime | Multiplayer on: July 22, 2014, 01:22:30 PM
I'd like to claim 1000 bits for username "jambola2"

Could you also tell me what "Beginner" , "Medium" and "Hard" mean in reference to the Bingo games ?

Secondly , it would be great if you could offer an option to change the unit to mBTC or Satoshi.
The "bit" unit is not used often and will not be familiar with the majority of players.

I don't really understand how a Fantasy League works , can someone explain it to me ?
Wikipedia doesn't help much either so , I'm kinda stuck.

I'll probably be up for it as long as the buy in is not too high.

Also, shouldn't this be in the Games and Rounds section ?
743  Economy / Services / Re: ➫ ➬ Lucky Bit Signature Campaign ★ Earn up to 0.1BTC every month ★ Closed - FULL on: July 21, 2014, 09:16:32 AM
Luckybit is my favorite casino by far, and I would love it for luckybit to expand. The site really shows potential and increasing space would allow more people to see it, so more profit in the long term. If I had the lucky privilege of owning the beautiful site, I probably would.

Not really.
45 people , each posting atleast 50 posts a month will lead to around 2500 fresh posts with this signature.
When you add on the previous posts that all these users have , there are atleast 4000 posts that are going to be read , with this signature.

Most of the forums would have heard of luckybit and expanding the signature campaign will increase the cost without really increasing exposure.

Hopefully in the next 3-4 years Bitcoin will skyrocket to a few hundred thousand...
If I get a couple of Bitcoin by then I could do the latter Cheesy

I'd most likely , as answered before , stick with the former until I could afford to live pretty well without working on it.

The question I would ask is : If you had a choice right now to do what you love or take a high paying job and cannot change your path ever later , which would you choose ?

A real case is Robert Frost. His parents wanted him to study Physics and Chemistry , in order to go the mundane path , but in the end he dropped them for Literature , as was his dream. His poem "The road not taken" is about this.

So, if you had a choice between a venture that may or may not pay out or a mundane , miserable job that would give you a comfortable , yet average life which would you take ? As Robert Frost said in the aforementioned poem , "Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back." Once you choose your path , it would be extremely unlikely that you would receive another opportunity to switch paths again.
745  Other / Off-topic / How many posts do you make per hour you are logged in ? on: July 21, 2014, 08:33:16 AM
Posts per hour = Posts / ((Logged in days * 24) + Logged in hours)

For example :
I have been logged in for 10 days and 15 hours and have made 918 posts.
That totals to around 3.6 posts per hour I've been logged in.

The lower your number is , the more you read posts and lurk in general without posting.

I've made this in order to help users ascertain how much quicker they are to post a reply rather than continue reading.

I'd generally assume that each user would post around 2-15 times per hour for the time they are logged in , and this would include 95% of the users.

In Dubai we have pretty good food safety regulations , so I don't need to worry Tongue

*continues eating Shawarma*
747  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your dream job? on: July 21, 2014, 08:17:26 AM
To work at Google.

Google is in my opinion , the best place an innovator can work.
Any idea you make into reality can be instantly broadcast to a literal audience of a billion people.

Congratulations Cheesy

Now that is funny. Make someone staff to cut down on the quantity of their reports and subsequently your workload.

That actually makes sense.
If he reports extremely accurately and often , wouldn't it make sense that he could handle the reports and do the job himself ?

You mean somebody actually wants my list :O

This is a list of all the dates upto September : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582736.0
If you check the link , it also includes a spreadsheet with all the dates upto 2060 !
751  Other / Meta / Re: Activity & new membergroup limits on: July 21, 2014, 05:25:08 AM
Why i've already 38 Posts, and only 14 Activity and Newbie status  Shocked Huh

Each two week period you post in increases your maximum activity by 14.
The next two week period is tomorrow (22nd July) at 9:06:40 GMT

A complete list of activity periods can be found here :- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582736.0
752  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcoin and the Poor on: July 21, 2014, 05:19:42 AM
Please tell us , why were you begging for Bitcoin ?

Most Newbie beggars are a bit more creative , they make lengthy sob stories on how they are screwed in real life ,how they bought bitcoins and lost them all gambling or how they are going to commit suicide because they don't have the bitcoins they need.

As mprep said earlier , there are a lot of legitimate charities active on this forum.
One prominent charitable cause is run by Dabs
There have been other campaigns for users to raise money for themselves , there has been a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for a DSLR for a professional photographer.

You need a legitimate cause before you can raise bitcoins and more importantly , you need to be well established in the community.
753  Other / Meta / Re: Activity on: July 21, 2014, 05:07:00 AM
One more thing is as long as you post once in a two week period , your maximum activity will still increase.

Example :

Period 1 = 2 posts
Period 2 = 1 post
Period 3 = 5 posts
Period 4 = 2 posts
Period 5 = 1 post

I will have 11 activity after these posts , but if I post 59 more times in the next day , my activity will instantly spike to 70.
This is because I have posted atleast once in each of the previous 5 periods.

Note: The periods do not start from when you register , they are arbitrary and you can find their dates here :- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582736.0
754  Economy / Economics / Re: Can bitcoin survive without the Internet? on: July 20, 2014, 12:02:52 PM
Of course it will, we'll just run really long RJ-45 cables from computer to computer and create our own Internet. It's a bit like file sharing, WAN connections only made it easier but if people really wanted to share files they would find another way around it no matter what, even if it means giving someone 5000 floppy disks with .RAR archives.

That would be "our own" Internet , but the Internet nonetheless.

Bitcoin can survive with any form of the Internet , but not without the Internet.

The Internet does not refer to it in its exact form , but to the idea behind it. Whatever happens , Bitcoin needs a global connection of computers to work.

The minimum bid has to be 0.5 BTC , as explicitly stated in the original post.

I've registered for it , but I'm probably going to only play freerolls for a while. (no rakeback for me Sad )

The freerolls from your site seem awesome Cheesy

Cloudbet, just for your information, it seems one of your participants "gofoter" has been perm-banned by mods.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=700811.0

That's not even the bad part.
He had been banned in the past for low quality posts and yet he managed to join this campaign.

Campaign owners need to screen past post record to make sure that they don't end up paying useless spammers.

I have completed my posts and it is now the 18th.
I am switching campaigns as I am unable to do over a hundred posts per month (the amount required for this to be more profitable than lump-sum campaigns)

I hope to join you again when I am able to make posts more frequently,
Thanking you,
Jambola2
759  Economy / Services / Re: Cloudbet Signature Campaign – up to 0.12 BTC per month for 50 posts on: July 16, 2014, 06:41:43 AM
I would like to apply for your signature campaign , however my prior campaign requires for me to use their signature till the 17th.
I have over 900 posts and none of my posts can be considered spam or of low quality.

I am willing to accept payment of 0.1 BTC for my first month provided I can start on the 17th.

I have sent a request for payment considering all posts that I have made before I submitted it (15th July and before)
Does this mean I can change my signature now ?

Thanks,
Jambola2
