In that case it might even affect next season, if current one drags for too long. What NBA could do to shorten the playoff season once it starts is to reduce amount of wins needed. So maybe go for best of 5 series for all games except the final. It wouldn't be something that we didn't in NBA before, as from 1984 till 2003 that's how first round of playoff was sorted. Or maybe even introduce best of 3, as it was before that, for thr first playoff round. There is one even more exciting idea, albeit completely unrealistic: single elimination tournament. So something similar to NCAA and "March Madness". For me that is sometimes even more exciting that NBA playoffs, but I doubt that NBA is ready for that kind of experiment. It is hard to plan anything though, since no one knows how and when will all this end. |

Agreeing with your findings and the good news is it seems like the OP of their ANN thread has locked their thread because of the negative tag you have given him.
Their Ann thread was locked even before i tagged them, as they probably wanted to prevent people mentioning plagiarism. But by the way where does exactly Monero stated this directly? I can't seem to find it in their cryptonote whitepaper where they talked about Ring signatures but it is not exactly where you have based it.
Thanks for pointing that out. What they copied is content from Investopedia about Monero, and not Monero whitepaper, gonna fix that in the first post and add original source. Sorry for confusion, here is the link, majority of Morelo website content is taken from that article https://www.investopedia.com/tech/introduction-monero-xmr/ |

Iako ja osobno imam dosta sumnji oko cijelog Ethereum projekta i dosta sam smanjio njegov udio u svom portfoliju u korist Bitcoina kojeg preferiram, ipak ne bih isao toliko daleko nazvati ga shitcoinom. Keljit "shitcoin" etiketu svakom projektu oko kojeg imas sumnji je kao keljit "scam" etiketu samo zato jer ti se ne svidja neki projekt. A to se danas redovno radi, pa samim time ti termini gube znacenje. Ajmo recimo vidjet definiciju shitcoina sa Investopedie: Shitcoin is a pejorative term used to describe an altcoin that has become worthless. Shitcoin value may disappear because interest failed to materialize because the altcoin itself was not created in good faith, or because the price was based on speculation. Kad gledam ovu definiciju, nikako ne mogu Ethereum svrstati u tu kategoriju, unatoc svim problemima. Mozda na kraju i ne bude nista od svega toga, ali na temelju trenutne situacije ipak ga ne bi svrstao u tu grupu. Naravno, stvar se uvijek moze izbanalizirati do kraja pa onda ubaciti i Bitcoin u tu kategoriju koji takodjer ima svojih problema, a to mi bas i nema previse smisla. |

Of course anyone objective knows that, but that wouldn't stop their opponents making fun of that title. And I believe tomahawk9 has forgot about united fans who would also have something to say about that  That's just football fans being football fans, they will always have holier-than-thou approach. Presented dilemma was declaring season void or making Liverpool champion. And for me that's no dilemma at all. But i somehow doubt that it will come to that. I really hope the league is just delayed and all the games will play out at later date. Winning at the green table is not the same.
That would be the best solution indeed. They could even schedule those 9 games that are left in 1 month period sometimes in the summer, and be done with it. Especially since EURO will be most likely postponed/cancelled, so summer might be free. Here is one pic i find fascinating, in regards how England continued with football even in toughest times. It is from the football match between Charlton Athletic and Arsenal in 1940, for the ongoing Wartime League (substitute for English Football League that was suspended from 1939-1946). They had spotter, who was watching out for German air raids.  |

That's it, some professional leagues are already ending the season and declaring champions. First one was Lithuanian Basketball League, they declared Zalgiris new 9 (old) champion for season 2019/2020 Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL) Board has decided to take all the necessary safety actions regarding the spread of COVID-19 virus in the country.
World Health Organization has declared an outbreak a world-wide pandemic. Due to Force Majeure, LKL Board has decided to end the 2019/20 Betsafe LKL season and crown current regular-season leaders, Zalgiris Kaunas, as the champions of 27th Betsafe LKL season. SourceAfter Lithuanian, same thing did Belgian basketball league In consultation with Basketball Belgium the Pro Basketball League has decided today to cancel the EuroMillions Basketball league in first division due to the coronavirus. This decision was made in order to protect the health of players, clubs and fans and to halt the spread of the virus based on the government’s recent decisions.
FILOU Oostende is proclaimed champion and the current standings will serve for the allocation of the European tickets. In order to allow our clubs to prepare for next season following this decision, the granting of the licences has been postponed until 15 May. SourceI think that we can expect similar thing in some other sports too, especially if some team has huge lead and is almost certain that they would win the title. In European football a lot of things will depend on decision whether European Championship is cancelled or not, and if postponed, when it will be. Some rumours on Telegraph even said Euro might go on during December. |

 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-8111151/Liverpool-set-given-Premier-League-title-season-ended-coronavirus.htmlNo football means time to talk and discuss some controversies..anyone up for this? I'll start: Liverpool fans, what would you choose? - "Winning" the title this way and have your rivals tell you, until the end of times, that it is a tainted title? (you know The Toffees and the Citizens are preparing the chants). - Not "winning" it at all and accept the FA's decision of voiding this season (it could happen, you never know)? This one means all the records will go down the drain, but at least your rivals won't make fun of you for the next 100 years. I am not some huge Liverpool fan, but I don't see any dillema here, as no one in their right mind would call it "tainted title" in case EPL ends and title goes to Liverpool. And who cares what some ignorant fans think anyway. I know I wouldn't. Everyone knows that Liverpool would win it anyway. To be honest, i didn't see many people asking for season to be declared void. That delusional West Ham vice-chairman Karren Brady doesn't count, as she wants that only because West ham could be relegated if season continues. |

Možeš li napraviti neku od onih tvojih analiza, da možemo znati koliko precizno imamo članova to rankovima na našem forumu, ako je ikako moguće?
Budem ovih dana nesto napravio, da imamo neku okvirnu sliku koliko imamo clanova i kakav je sastav. Samo nece biti 100% precizno jer nitko ne vodi nikakvu detaljne logove o tome kao za recimo postove i merite. Čini mi se da ću morati odustati od ove ponude jer izgleda da među newbie, junior memberima i memberima nema nikakvog interesa za ovu akciju.  Mislim, zaista ne razumijem, po cijelom forumu novi članovi ''kukaju'' kako je teško dobiti merite i napredovati na forumu i onda im sve ponudiš ''na pladnju'' i..... potpuna tišina, ni glasa. A cuj, i nemamo mi previse aktivnih clanova do Member ranka, imamo ih cca desetak. A i ovo je ipak malo zajebaniji natjecaj od proslog za koji ipak treba vremena smisliti a proslo je tek 4-5 dana. Mislim da je bio otvoren i za sve rankove ne bi bas bilo neka prevelika navala. A ovo za newbie merit giveaway threadove je svakako istina, jednostavno ima manjak aktivnih novih clanova na cijelom forumu. Em je bear market, em su forumi sve manje i manje popularni, pa tako i ovaj. Ako bi vec radio natjecaj, mozda recimo neki natjecaj da se svaki mjesec bira top post ili recimo top 3? I to otvoreno za sve clanove, ukljucujuci i Legendary. Mozda bi to vise animiralo ekipu. |

Dude basically suspended the league all by himself by being infected as well, maybe the league would have suspended anyway for couple weeks later or maybe just a few more days, but it was him that broke the barrier and caused the suspension.
If you look it like that, then it is not such a bad thing after all. Led by pure greed NBA team owners didn't want to stop the league, therefore they endangered health of players and fans way more than Gobert did. By pausing NBA sooner than later, way less people will get infected in the end, therefore it could have been much worse if league was suspended few weeks later. It was just matter of time anyway, so whether it's Gobert or someone else, it doesn't really matter. Italians ignored the disease, and we see what they have going on there, this should be lesson for everyone else not to screw in situation like this. Actually I would rather see NBA being played without fans in an arena than cancelling the whole season, I think that's the decision they'll make when they resume.
Problem with this is that basketball is contact sport, and even without fans, players could spread disease among themselves easily, and that could hurt league way more in the long run, rather than some break. NBA survived lockouts and crises, and so will this as well. |

Mozem ja? Dosta posla u zadnje vrijeme na scam busting sceni, evo 2 slucaja od neki dan 1.Ovaj MTCore gledam vec neko vrijeme, mjesecima neometano shillaju svoj ann thread ali nikako da malo prekopam da vidim sta se skriva iza. I naravno, ne da su scam, nego je organizator osoba koja ima dug staz u tim vodama, medju ostalima je bio ukljucen u USI Tech, poznati ponzi oko kojeg se dosta dosta pisalo 2018/2019 te koji je pokupio milijune USD od naivnih investitora. Ako vam se da, supportajte i flag tamo na topicu. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5231987.02.Mjenjacnica koja ima slicno ime, vizualni identitet te naravno kopiranu hrpu sadrzaja od Bitfinexa https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5232252.0 |

Dokle god je cijena iznad $0, ima prostora za pad. U vrijeme ovakve panike dovoljno je da objave da Trump ima koronu i ode sve u kitu opet... Vidjet ćemo. Ja sam pripremio nešto keša i čekam. Noćas sam prespavao ETH na $86. Valjda iduću priliku neću prespavati...
Pa pustis open order na nekoj niskoj cijeni koja se tebi cini predobrom da bila istinita i trljas ruke ako prodje. Naravno ipak moras malo pogledati suporte pa stavis ipak solidno iznad onog za kojeg mislis da nema sanse da padne. Open order mogu imati samo na Binance na kojem nema fiat parova. A ne želim lovu držati u nekom od stablecoina u vrijeme ovakve panike. Istina, lova nije velika ali ipak ne bi htio da mi se prepolovi zato jer je Tether konačno puknuo ili zato jer MakerDAO nije uspio srediti probleme s DAI. Ja zbog toga, koristim USDC... na Binance barem... A zašto misliš da je USDC bolji od Tethera ili DAI? Da budem iskren, nisam uopće do sad proučavao taj USDC ali sam ga koristio da bi lovu prebacio sa Binance na Coinbase jer ga obje burze podržavaju. Osim toga, Tether ima puno veći volumen od USDC-a. Koliko znam, za razliku od Tethera USDC ima redovne audite, i nije imao prošlosti punu sumnjivih tvrdnji koje nije mogao potvrditi, pa su ih kasnije mijenjali. Tu prvenstveno mislim na onu tvrdnju da su pokriveni sa kešom 1:1, koju su kasnije malo prilagodili, znači svojevremeno su vjerojatno lagali. Al jebiga, većina i dalje više koristi Tether da li zbog veće likvidnosti, ili zbog navike. Uključujući i mene. A to je navika koju bi trebao promijeniti. |

Adam Silver announced that they opted for 30 days break minimum, and after that they will reevaluate situation. This was expected really, it would be foolish to keep on with current situation. The NBA's suspension due to the coronavirus outbreak will last at least 30 days, NBA commissioner Adam Silver announced.
The league told its teams that the 30-day mark is an "aspirational timeline," per Arthur. The suspension of the 2019-20 season remains indefinite.
According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, the NBA has informed all of its teams on a number policies effective immediately and through March 16:
All players must remain in market of team
Players remain home as long as possible
No group workouts or practices
Team physicians and trainers speak to each player once a day SourceI speculate the NBA commisioner will declare that the regular season will not be played in full to let the playoffs begin on time. The present top 8 on each conference might be the top 8 by the end of the regular season with only a small difference on the bottom 2.
This is definitely possibility, since most teams already played 64-65 games already, and almost all playoff spots have been basically secured. In the East Orlando Magic is at the 8th spot with 6 games advantage over Hornets at the 9th spot, so it would be very hard for Hornets to catch them.Situation on the West is a bit more complicated as Grizzlies are 3 wins ahead of Blazers and 4 wins ahead of Pelicans in the race for 8th spot. Aftera all, those lockout seasons weren't any longer either. 1998/1999 season had only 50 games in the regular season, while during lockout in 2011/2012 only 66 games of regular season were played. |

The EPL will be suspended soon, Arsenal but also some Leicester players are infected. Both teams should be quarantined, i guess after this weekend games the decision will be made to postpone it 3 Leicester players so far have Corona virus symptoms, and are in isolation but they are not confirmed positive yet. After Arteta being first confirmed positive, only reasonable thing to do is suspend all games, as it won't end up just with him. Most likely some other team members will be positive as well. That's how it goes. Similar thing happened with Gobert in NBA, soon after him being confirmed positive, same thing happened with his teammate Mitchell. |
