Zimbabwe 90/5 in 13 overs.Zimbabwe didn't give any chance to people who placed on it to recover their losses.This is what happens when you relay on unpredicted teams like these both.
Two low rank teams mostly unpredictable and recoverable but today Afghanistan show real class and give very hard punch which was completely unrecoverable this team is going to be some extra ordinary in near future some players need some experience then they can challenge any team  

But Afghanistan batted like a top ranked team and their Shahzad hit top 5 highest score world T20 matches. I luckily bet on Afghanistan and made a profit.

It was best team work from Afghanistan team, they were top in all departments. I thought Zimbabwe may give some surprise today but Afghanistan batsman didn't allow for that. I won a small bet on this match. Afghanistan slowly becoming a more matured team.

Yes they are but let us wait and see how they perform against bigger teams in future, you can't judge a team's performance when they're playing against teams like, Zim, Kenya, Hong Kong etc.

The next big match is tomorrow, Ind @2.85 vs Aus @1.35, and I agree with bookies on this one.

Writing a description for this thing for general audiences is bloody hard. There's nothing to relate it to.

This one is my favorite.

It also gives us a clue that he is from a country that would use the phrase "bloody hard"

Good point, for the most part I have heard this "term" used by british people, so maybe he was/is from england but that doesn't tells that he was in england when he invented all this.

I think its flagging that the electrum server your connecting to is using a self signed certificate. Nothing to worry about as all servers do.

Something must be wrong because it started doing that recently, it is asking to add an exclusion while it did nothing like this before. I'll see from now 'manually' which servers are doing this and avoid them.

nothing to worry about probably , it happened to me as-well several times while using Bitcoin Core . As the user above stated it's related to the server you are connected !!

It probably is nothing, maybe I am being paranoid but just for safety sake I am avoiding servers which ask to add this exclusion. I wish there was a way to remove them from my electrum but don't know how to achieve that.

Here are a few in a thread similar to this one:

I just spent a couple hours reading through Satoshi's 1,000+ posts and plucked out my four favorites:

    1. (I’ve been working on bitcoin’s design) since 2007. At some point I became convinced there was a way to do this without any trust required at all and couldn’t resist to keep thinking about it.

    2. Lost coins only make everyone else’s coins worth slightly more. Think of it as a donation to everyone.

    3. Sorry to be a wet blanket. Writing a description for (bitcoin) for general audiences is bloody hard. There’s nothing to relate it to.

    4. I’m sure that in 20 years there will either be very large (bitcoin) transaction volume or no volume.

I've got a couple dozen more here: http://crypt.la/2014/01/06/satoshi-nakamoto-quotes/

You'll find more in that thread. The current one which suits him, although not said by him would be:

"I am not complaining, nor am I protesting either. It is sometimes advantageous to be unseen, although it is most often rather wearing on the nerves."

wow good nesw. but emercoin now

I saw the news a day later (4-5 days back) I think and at the time the price was around 42k Satoshi, now its dancing around 30k Satoshi on bittrex, how is it doubled?

I for one am not on Facebook, I don't like that place. Also, does that account on fb stays updated? People usually tend to follow those accounts more on social media which remain active.

Sri Lankans were able to put only 142 on board, would that be enough against the very strong NZ team? I don't think so.

Its very difficult to beat NZ in NZ and they're looking like one of the team we can expect to see in finals if not winners at T20 World Cup although its not taking place in NZ.
608  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Getting Started with small Budget on: January 10, 2016, 03:48:23 AM
Mining is costly these days, it requires a lot of investment to make something and even then it is not sure that you'd make ROI, why don't you buy $100 worth of Bitcoins instead and try day trading them to make some profit. Or just hodl them and wait for the price to go more up.

But if you just want to do this as an experience then you can give it a shot. Maybe you'll be able to mine some altcoins and make something if they go up miraculously.

610  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does this happen to you? on: January 09, 2016, 09:11:21 AM
That happens with me all the time but I rarely play casino games anymore, it just seems as if winning on these games have actually become more difficult, which wasn't the case earlier. But since they're provably fair, it must be that our luck has gotten worse.
611  Bitcoin / Electrum / Is this something to worry about or not? on: January 09, 2016, 08:51:57 AM
I am getting this warning lately while using Electrum from my AV and was just wondering if it something serious and what exactly is causing this and what can be done to stop this?

This is what it says:




Of-couse I did not add the exclusion but would like to know what's going on?

Just find something you're good at and give it your full attention and effort, the money follows sooner or later. If you run behind money you will rarely get it, but run behind making a career and money will come automatically.
613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: January 09, 2016, 08:39:43 AM
It was a good match, both teams are almost equal to me, Zimbabweans were really down at one point but then they fought back but unfortunate for them they still came short of 187 and these are the losses which hurt the most. Their top order batsman need to step up.

2nd T20 between SL and NZ is tomorrow, lets see if SL can do some magic and make a come back.
614  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: blockchain wallet - disappeared coins, addresses, 6 months transaction history on: January 08, 2016, 05:44:06 AM
Hello, is anyone experiencing the issue i have? Blockchain.info

I cant see latest transactions and addresses i owe created after 07.2015

You should contact support, if you're in an urgent need of your funds then use the back-up which you should have previously created to get hold of your funds by importing the keys from it to another wallet such as electrum.
615  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as a way to avoid corruption on: January 08, 2016, 05:35:44 AM
So far bitcoin has achieved quite the opposite. Never has a currency had so high crime rates per total market cap. Volume and percentage of bitcoin transactions that are involved with crime are bigger than any other currency.

Anonymity has its side effects but if funds are public and known to be in custody of someone then it just becomes more difficult for them to spend it and not declare where they spent it. So in a way it can stop corruption but not crime until it loses anonymity.

I say solve some cases of scams over scam accusations section or maybe you can find some of the Ponzi owners who vanished with a lot of people's money and then that would serve as vouches for your service.
617  Economy / Gambling / Re: Dice - Chances of rolling the above or below consecutive times on: January 08, 2016, 05:03:28 AM
Anyone know the percentages on rolling Hi/Low consecutive times?

first time is 50/50 but as you keep getting the same result, the odds have to go down right?  I mean i know its always 50/50 for 1 roll but how do you calculate off of multiple rolls?

Every roll is independent from its previous one and hence there is no way to calculate it. Toss a coin in the air 3 times, if all 3 times it comes as Heads then that doesn't mean that the 4th time it will come as Tails. Its same with Dice.
618  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: January 08, 2016, 04:52:25 AM
Today is the first T20 between Afghanistan and Zimbabwe and though they won the ODI series, I am going to go with Zim today, I think they're going to fight and make a come back in today's match.
619  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: need some help for a newbie bitcoin purchase on: January 07, 2016, 05:05:55 AM
I am sorry, but from what we see here with his activity, there is a strong chance that he may have been hacked or someone was claiming to be him when they were not.  It is hard to say not to be worried, but I would do some research before you choose to this next time.  An escrow would have been a great thing here.  Did they collect the money from WU yet?

I have heard that before.  Roll Eyes

I would stop advising that, instead just say trade carefully or trade at your own risk because you never know when someone so trusted decides to do become untrusted.

If you're doing illegal trades with or without using BTC then sooner or later you'll get traced and prosecuted, period! because all criminals make mistakes, so in the story above, both Alice and Bob will go behind bars one day.
