Unfortunately, not everyone is that ambitious; there have indeed been cases of users scamming for less than $2 before.

But more to marjod's point, this does seem like an account sale; you even forgot to include how long you need the loan for, what interest you are willing to pay, why you need the loan, and so on. Further, can you perhaps provide a signed message, to prove ownership of that account (for all we know, scaryscar6 can be a hacked account)?

Oh, and I thought I was the only one still playing that.

Up until recently, I had been playing PipsTycoon - an online financial and economic simulation game, where players can withdraw the money they make in-game. Unfortunately, the amount of profit that can be made without much time and effort (and depositing your own money to play) has been steadily decreasing over time, so I'm looking for a new game, at the moment.

Well, a computer playing chess will typically go through every possible move (with some degree of optimization), and choose the one that yields the most profit. Now, although that process can indeed defeat human players, it's not really due to what most would describe as intelligence (not in a general intelligence sense, at least); it's just a brute force approach.

At any rate, unless some changes were made to the site (and it still seems to be offline at the moment), I think the idea was to allow PvP games plus bets, and not exactly player versus computer games (though that's what it would eventually become if someone were to cheat).

Well, if nothing else, I'm sure there are at least a few less murders, and atrocities in general, attributed to Anibal Cavaco Silva - you know, when compared to Saddam Hussein, or Muammar Gaddhafi, or Kim Jong Un.

Now, while the stated motives for this move are quite troubling, (in my limited understanding of the process) I'm not sure he isn't entitled to make this choice (though it's certainly questionable whether it was the right choice); at the very least, it isn't as if the Left-Wing coalition won the election outright, and the president went out of his way to stop them, single-handedly (as you seem to be making it out to be). So, the context is important here: initially, the incumbent conservative party came out first in the election (with more votes than any other party), though not with enough seats in parliament to obtain a majority, even when forming a coalition with their allies. However, although technically the opposition parties had the majority of the seats among them, they were too divided, and refused to put their differences aside to form a government. This left the conservative party with a minority government, and the task to find allies among the opposition (mainly, the larger party, PS), in order to be able to get (unpopular) things done - negotiations fell apart, however, and the opposition eventually got their act together and formed a coalition.

In this context, and even though I agree that the opposition should have been given the chance to form a government, the president's decision is perhaps merely an attempt to maintain the status quo, by keeping the incumbent party in power - which they aren't expected to retain, as the opposition is set to call for a no confidence vote.

Sim, mas imagino que esta subida recente esteja relacionada com a decisão do Tribunal de Justiça Europeu de há uns dias atrás - a decisão que diz que Bitcoin deve ser isento de VAT¹ - e n tanto relacionado com o "halving", se bem que isso deve estar sempre na mente de quem faz trading e especulação (imagino eu).

Hmm, it seems you didn't register for the competition, w40ut, and the registration period is over - but I hope you will join us in a future event (with the next one possibly starting early next month).

EDIT: oh, I see FrueGreads forgot to change that in the thread's title.

A new signature campaign opened yesterday: Bitroll.XYZ - might be good for users wanting to post mostly/exclusively in German. However, the campaign manager seems not to want to select one escrow to hold the funds for the campaign, but rather, make individual escrow deals upon request from participants, which is kind of unusual, I guess.

Bitroll.XYZ (Thread)
Payment period: Weekly
Payment method: Will be paid to your website account.
Minimum posts: 10 posts per week.
Payments: L/H/S: 0.001BTC per post.

By the way, perhaps "Maximum posts" should also be included in the Detailed Information section, much like there already is a place for "Minimum posts" (so that that information isn't relegated to "Miscellaneous", or omitted altogether).

I would like to take one of the Affiliate spots, this time (by the way, I wasn't added to the "Advertisers on cooldown" section, stingleword).

Why don't you tell us what you really think about it?

I got tired of the first series fairly early on, but is this one that much worse? Or just more of the same, repeated ad infinitum until you die of boredom?

I would like to see either Bernie Sanders, or Larry Lessig, elected.

Bernie Sanders seems to me to be the most progressive, and reasonable, candidate available - his policies, many of which he seems to have held since, like, forever now, are quite sensible and, looking at some of his interviews, he is pretty straight forward about what they are, and how he would put them in place.

On the other hand, Larry Lessig, if elected, plans to deal exclusively with campaign finance and election reform, after which he would resign; the reasoning behind it being that, until corruption in politics is addressed, it will always distort important issues, and prevent them from being dealt with in a manner that reflects the public interest.

Well, in addition to what was already mentioned (don't spam; participate in discussions in a constructive manner), which basically apply to all members, signature campaign or not, the next step would be to read the instructions for the campaign you are considering joining¹ carefully (you can usually find everything you need to know in the very first post) - they tend to vary a little, some of them restricting where in the forum you can post, sometimes with what frequency you can do so, the minimum number of characters your posts must have, and so on.

1 - you can see a list of the available campaigns in the following thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.

That's a bit unfair, isn't it? One could easily argue that most Gitmo prisoners should never have been sent there in the first place (and are admittedly innocent of any offense, having been jailed for no good reason). Moreover, it could also be argued that no one should have been sent to an offshore prison/torture center at all, and that that was only done in an effort to skirt US laws and regulations (to say nothing of the Geneva Conventions, or international law in general - we already know the US doesn't care about those, unless it's someone else it doesn't like breaking them).

Hmm, it's probably not true that the attack was carried out by Ankara, directly (though I wouldn't be terribly surprised if I was wrong here); but it certainly seems very likely that they had information on one being imminent, at least (with the attack occurring right in the middle of the capital city, and all), and choose to do nothing to prevent it - worse: they've been taking every chance they can get to escalate the situation further, probably in an effort to push Kurdish political parties out of parliament, and secure a majority government in the next elections.

You really shouldn't trust someone merely based on his forum rank - accounts get bought and sold with some frequency around here, although higher ranks less frequently so.

By the way, it's way past time for you to update yourself... I recommend Firefox.

No system is perfect idyu; there will always be users taking advantage of whatever they can, whenever they can.

With that in mind, of course you should still use escrow, when the situation calls for it - it does add an extra layer of security, when the system is working well (which has been the case, for the most part), and there might be ways to help avoid some of the problems when it isn't, such as, for example, opening the whole process, as much as possible, to public scrutiny.

No, it's not too late to join the competition; the late registration period closes tomorrow.

Welcome aboard panjul07, and good luck.

I'm sorry AMR008 but, as ACAB pointed out, you need to be a Junior Member, or higher forum rank, before you can enter this competition.

Now, as I previously mentioned¹, if you manage to make 26 more constructive posts somewhere in the forum, before the late registration closes (a little less than a week from now), you can still enter this event - if not, you'll have to wait for the next one.

Well, that depends on your bankroll, at the time you place the bet, much like FrueGreads wrote.

So, let's say you have a bankroll of 10.000 DOGE, and place a 1.000 DOGE bet at odds of 2; if you win that bet, you will profit 1.000 DOGE as usual, but for the purpose of this competition (and what you will see in the leaderboard is that), that bet will be counted as if it had been placed with a maximum of 5% of your bankroll - 500 DOGE, in this case, and that is what will be counted as your profit from that bet.

Hi Republikcoin.com - glad you could join us.

Please make sure to read the rules, and good luck with your bets.

Sure; you can edit a post to add in more bets, nickaizoku.

You can register to participate in the competition right here in this thread, soul-impact - just leave a post with your username, address you intend to use for payouts, and starting bankroll (as detailed in the first few posts of this thread). Please make sure to read all the rules, though, and post any questions you might have.

Thanks for joining sanerin.

By the way, I should have mentioned this before but, bets in "Direct Dice", and "All-In Poker", don't count towards this competition - only bets on actual events, or matches.
