I really think you need to answer this question yourself, but first I'll give some hint, what is a gamble, its a bet on a outcome that you feel would happens it guarantee? No, can you lose your money? Yes, so with this you shoudl understand that this is no no investment at all it is more like trying your luck on something cause you would never know no matter how much you try to get it right.

It's up to you to decide how much you can stake in gambling, but I'll rather have you change the perspective of allocate cause you shoudl only invest what you can afford to lose, more like a spare money or something that you feel okay to risk.

If you ask me how I do my own, I mostly stake high, but don't get me wrong, I stake what I can afford to lose and its only once a week during weekend like today I gamble cause there are enough games to pick from, when I'm done with my week expenses and investment, with whatever cash I have left that I could use to get some enjoyments or maybe at times not enough to go out I just use it to gamble away, and this is okay with me and I don't how much of a gambler you are , so my advice is se your spare money not some allocation cause if you consistently lose those amount to gambling at some point you might start to regret and all that, so most preferable use yoru spare money and try your luck. It's what it is mate.

How are y'all doing, it's weekend and I think going swimming after I hit the gym today woudl be the best idea I've got, I managed to get some of my friends to buy the idea of intensive workouts then the chill pill in the pool Grin.

I think we all need to take our selves our today do something cool, besides we have been working out, it's not too bad to show your amazing body today, remember eat healthy, avoid junks and high fat foods.

After rounding up excerise today, I broke some records although there were not pushups inclined, it seems that if you start to develop a part of your body the others parts might also develop without your knowledge, I can't seem to know where I got today's abdominal strength from, I did a total of 500 sit ups this morning and I went a total of 14 minutes in plank at a go, that's  exceptional for me, my pushups went as usual. I thank everyone that gave me advice when I wasn't feeling well, I guess it was just the weather cause I'm all right now.

My report.

I'm really hoping Arsenal wins this encounter against Bournemouth because I know how troublesome they were before Arsenal were able to defeat them last season.They are always so composed in their pattern of play,and with Solanke inform and infront of their attack,they are very dangerous,but I just believe the gunners will have a way of holding him from causing an upset which will have a way of affecting their tittle charge.
And at thesame time, Mancity are also going to have problem winning Wolves today,according their their Statistics and head to head,Wolves have been the winner in their last two meetings,so City have a problem here too.
Arsenal against Bournemouth it will be a bonus for us and i have all the confidence that Arsenal will win, and the last two games that Bournemouth played was a win they won against Brighton and the Wolves, so with this record it might go as easy as we all think but arsenal will win that is what I know for sure is that arsenal will find a way to defeat them. because at this point we have gotten to the premier league we can not afford to lose any game. arsenal really need to be mindful of this solanke, and we need to close up well to avoid easy penetrations because underestimating them will just be another big challenge. I don't think Manchester City will have a problem with Wolves but it is almost half time and we are already finding it difficult to score goals, there is still enough time to know the outcome.
Arsenal was able to open the score line on exactly 45mins of the first half before the extra time with a penalty kick to put his club on the lead. Havertz was brought down inside the 18 yard box y Bournemouth goal keeper Mark Travers.

The first half is over and Arsenal managed to take the lead after missing so many chances which was suppose to give them at least two goals. It is 1-0.

Yeah currently watching that match myself, but yet my confidence in arsenal taking the league title is still not firm cause as we know it man City still has has outstanding match and arsenal still tops with 1 point, so I prefer to consider them equals, man City has not been on the best goal scoring form and I personally think its since all their goal became so dependant on one man, they still touch the ball perfect but you would find them not getting those large score line like before.

No one seems to be looking at the championship league, what's the faith of leads now that Ipswich has well given them the lead, would they survive the playoffs, right leads and Southampton are the only real contenders of the playoffs, its been a while since Ipswich came to the Premier League but I feel it won't last unless they buy some players just like Brentford did during their time, lots of old league teams are trying their best to get out of the league and into the spotlight, I believe that we would see more competition in the Premier league next year.

Girona will have an advantage in the match against Barcelona because they will be playing at home but that doesn't mean they will win the match because their opponent is Barcelona. Even though Barcelona has not had a very good performance recently, Girona themselves are also not at their best. They did manage to win in their last 2 matches but before that, they lost to Atletico Madrid and Getafe. So I think Barcelona also has the same big chance in this match and they should be giving Girona a very tough fight.

Girona currently only has a difference of two points from Barcelona in standings, so surely they will not waste the opportunity to be able to eliminate Barcelona from second place later, Girona in the first meeting managed to beat Barcelona in home with a score of 2-4, in the first match of course at that time Girona's performance was in good condition and very consistent so they could easily beat Barcelona especially at that time Barcelona's performance In bad shape, but for the second meeting of the season, of course, the performance of the two teams is in good enough condition so it seems that the factor of playing at home cannot be a reference for us to say Girona can win over Barcelona.

Currently Girona and Barcelona are in pretty good form and will also certainly present a game that will be fierce in the match later, but to be honest, if you look at Barcelona performance which is starting to be quite stable, of course it looks like Barcelona has a chance to bring home points from Girona home, even though Girona plays at home but still in that match Barcelona will be the favorite in my opinion.

Sincerely you may be right but i doubt that Barcelona would have the upper hand against girona in this match, I know that girona may had slacked for a while in their performance especially considering the form they were on at the start of the season but that doesn't Mean that it would be such an easy battle for Barcelona, considering there first match girona held the game at an offensive 2:4 against Barcelona at their home and i don't think we would have a less thrilling match today, I hate to be the speculator but I am still expecting girona to still come out on top on this match and more over they gave a lot to lose than Barcelona coming out 3rd after all the struggle they had to go through this season.

Lower highs and lower lows means a negative trend in place right now.   Check whether we can exceed 63k or are held back by a ceiling that will lead lower or not.

Daily bars with 50 day moving average in blue.
Thats my rough sketch, if we can break the back of this downtrend then expect todays 6% rise to be matched similarly in future.  Ideally we need to confirm this first for best confidence.  Until we are above the blue line and also its rising again I dont have full confidence in the moves that appear, alot of fake outs can appear that will not last.

A lot of squigglies. not sure if they mean much of anything.. and yeah of course, we had a correction and we have been a little more than 7 weeks into the correction, and we are going into a weekend.. when volumes tend to be a bit lower. .but still I cannot see this as any point in which it is make or break in either direction..

Well if the dip continues, it would be good for those that are already prepared to had some cash somewhere that they wanted to put in bitcoin, i believe that this might be the last buying opportunity in the bull run and it should serve as a means for us to take advantage of it especially those in their accumulation stage. I'm not really a technical guy or chart reader but I believe Waiting any longer for more price decrease or expecting lower price than what we are seen now may never come and I wouldn't be surprised when people cry in regret that they failed to take advantage of this price and it even possible for this to be the last time we would ever see bitcoin below 60k, who can tell where the bull run would land us or what awaits bitcoin in the future.
8  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy Buy Buy or Sell Sell Sell? on: May 03, 2024, 09:10:52 PM


The bull run is set to come starting this year but it may peak on next year. And that's why those that haven't bought yet, still have got a lot of time to accumulate.



Yeah, we can keep accumulating, but your pointing your idea to be limiting within this bull run to utilize any profits made. Newbies Coming into the market shouldn't accumulate in order to sell, but hold. Not being clueless about the benefits of holding, like for me am still in my early phase of accumulation,am not selling but am accumulating more applying DCA approach following through with ideas shared in this thread. The time of the pump isn't predictable as price can still dip more or do whatever, the consideration is us relating to how far we have gone in our Bitcoin phase.
You can buy as much BTC as you want without waiting for the bull run and it will inevitably happen what you are looking for. Your success in extending the long waiting period above deposit method - long term investment. Along with the recommendation to increase the size of your pile, it is maintained and uninterrupted. If you are accumulating BTC by following DCA method it is recommended to increase as it is now sitting 20% below the last ATH though it may drop further so you should be aggressive in accumulating. Here if time gap and accumulation strategy can cross the stable level then it is better to be focused enough to continuously raise the level of DCA strategy.
when I make my research on Bitcoin I find out that people that invested in Bitcoin the time the price was low did not invest in Bitcoin having the man say to that the price will enter to bullish market the invested on it because they have a target and after the price of Bitcoin started increasing in market so they made them different profit for the investment so that is how I supposed to be when you are investing in Bitcoin do not feel bad or they not feel bias make sure that you invest on it with your target and you will make it

If that target is short term then you are not investing but rather gambling, it's a gamble to come into bitcoin with the notion that the price is low now and I'll cash out when the price comes up, how are you sure that they would be any increase, that price you bought could well dip even further, the truth is bitcoin remains unpredictable and its best approached that way, since we know this we approach with a better way that has been tested by history which is the long term approach that is more guaranteed to give returns without risk of volatility, bitcoin is still an early asset and we can also view it as an asset that is still growing, so it's better to approach it with a mindset that I need to accumulate a good amount of bitcoin and let some time pass over it and if it does well or they is price increase after that time then you can now think of selling.

Think of those that started bitcoin 5 years ago and have been DCAING since then, right now their portfolio would be green with lots of profits from the past, although they isn't any guarantee that past performance would repeat, it still has a better odd of happening than not to.

Had a few worths on this auction and like to expand the discussion...

What do we think about it and are there many other moments which created a historical piece that could provide high prices in BTC or FIAT terms?
And with what kind of others pieces can we compare a piece like this one..


https://x.com/BTC_Archive/status/1783424287438713334


I've not bought paper in a while, if it were only priced in dollars, so about $1,000,000.00 I just would have thought inflation was just bad.

But 16BTC seems a bit much for a bit of paper and some writing on it.

----------------

"Scotland's power-sharing government collapses as SNP and Greens end deal"

Who would have guessed two camps of crazy left wing communists not agreeing with each other eventually?
One camp is led by someone who literally hates the indigenous people, the other hates that the last 200 years of technical advancement happened.
 Roll Eyes




would it be worth more as this Einstein note over time?

https://edition.cnn.com/style/article/einstein-handwritten-notes-auction/index.html

*In terms of FIAT not in terms of 16 BTC ...

I mean in terms of FIAT stricktly, would it be a good investment comparing with a paper like the Einstein one or compared with a Football, Pokemon card etc

It seems to be a historical collectible just like the newspaper where BTC was mentioned for the first time...(I do remember an auction for the paper was held on this forum, but can't find the link anymore, if someone can add it in this thread its merit worthy imo...)

Could this BTC outperform a lot of them? It could act like a cool piece on the wall, but better like some famous paintings etc??

Pieces with historical mentionings got value, but whats the correct price or how can we value a specific paper like this one and which will follow this Buy Bitcoin paper in the future?
There gotta be more of them...

Personally I think I was more about sending a message to the public to impose some kind of thought to buy bitcoin, unless so I don't see a reason worth spending a million dollar on a piece of paper.

Compared to Einstein note I think this piece of paper could one day be sought for as a memorable historical art of bitcoin from its early days and it could be some kind of relic that bitcoin enthusiast would want to have, maybe to hang on
a wall or some collectibles etc, the rich have this habit of buying stuffs out of passion.

Thigns are priced by the amount of value given to them by a person or the public at large, so yeah it's possible to continue to grow in value as long as people continue to view it that way.
10  Economy / Speculation / Re: Road to 100k? on: May 03, 2024, 08:39:21 PM
We have seen Bitcoin reach 70k USD and it even reached a point of 71k briefly. We are seeing history being made right here with the new all time high being set once again and it is happening even before halving.

I have high expectations that bitcoin will reach 100k but will it reach 100k without any major decline in price? Does it seem realistic that from 70k, bitcoin will continuously rise up?
maybe we can see ROAD TO 50k for a while mate till the bull comes  Grin Grin at least in our moment now this is more realistic than 100k (of course just for this month and the next) because i believe that this is the late effect of halving that supposedly dropping before halving that each 4 years have shown us , but totality of my answer believes that bitcoin will break that 100k but not in our short time now.

You think that the odds for $50k are very high?  greater than 60%?  I am not even sure if they are that high... but hey, I tend to be someone who bounces around with 50/50 predictions in regards to up versus down (and personally it seems to me that we are still in no man's land, which means (from my thinking) that the odds for up are greater than the odds for down.. especially in the zone of $55k-ish to $82k-ish), but yeah, I will admit that we did end up getting into no man's land quite soon (quicker than expected), but that should not invalidate the no man's land thesis.. at least tentatively that there is ongoing UPpity tendencies and pressures within this zone.. , and currently it seems that the price is bouncing back from the so far low of $56,500 just from yesterday.. so sometimes folks get too worked up about believing corrections are going to keep going, but then maybe the momentum is going to change.. I am not claiming to know.. but I would not be that confident that $50k has high chances as you seem to be presuming from some more or less normal correction levels (so far).
I disagree with the assumption that the odds of Bitcoin dropping to $50k are extremely high exceeding 60%. And market predictions are inherently uncertain I believe likelihood of downturn is lower than that. Currently we are in neutral zone ($55k-$82k) where upward tendencies still persist. By the way we entered this zone sooner than expected it does not invalidate idea that there is ongoing upward pressure. The recent bounce from $56500 suggests that corrections might not be as severe as feared. I am not claiming to have certainty but I would not be as confident as others seem to be about the high chances of $50k drop based on typical correction levels so far.

While you may be right or wrong I think it's better to stick with the fact that bitcoin can't be predicted, while many were expecting an immediate upward movement after the halving the opposite happened and this kind of events mostly put short term traders in panic and not long term trader, what do I have to panic about, price decrease is only an opportunity for me to aquire more but for a lower price and what's with all you guys so bothered about where bitcoin is headed next, shouldn't you be more bothered about how to get more bitcoin, the question and topic should be what's your preparation for the up ?, It's even possible that some guys merely have little bitcoin, IMO what's more important for everyone is what they plan on doing than panic about price decrease.
11  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My decision on bitcoin on: May 03, 2024, 07:17:44 PM
One thign I noticed from your post Is that you don't have funds and your most likely relying on the money you would get from that phone to buy bitcoin, but you know that you would be better off fixing the problem of a steady income so that you can properly chase the dream of been a long term holder, the money from the phone can only give you the satisfaction of having some bitcoin but you know you if you must be successful it requires quite the amount invested so you would have made good stash in bitcoin.

To be sincere if you haven't also considered that you need an emergency funds set up sooner or later to insure that you don't sell your holdings soon cause if panic or some unexpected events, so yeah I think your major problem now I getting a steady income if you don't have one.
12  Economy / Speculation / Re: 100 Push-Ups A Day Until Bitcoin Is $100K Challenge on: May 03, 2024, 06:57:54 PM
Good morning Gamers,

I hope you all are enjoying this game because its full of fun. Today i went to work and my colleagues were asking if I have been gym ing  That my chest and muscles are getting bigger and I simply say No,that am only doing Push-Ups. They is always a reward for hard work, Just see your Day to Day Push-Ups as a game and enjoy the fun and  rewards it brings.

I really think you might have an already well built body before you started this excerise cause I still remember it's not been up to a 2 weeks since you you made your first post here to already have quite the visible results but that's by the way.

I woke up sick this morning and was unable to do any push up, I thought I was just a mild feeling but it lingerd even after my morning run, so later in the afternoon I decided that I shoudl try doing something more intensive to get myself fit and to sweat out a bit, after doing some pushup for about 3 hours straight plus my rest and spread time in as able to do 200 pushup although the feeling didn't leave at the point, right now I'm feeling well. I guess thai is to show how doing excerise can help keep you healthy and strong at times when your body may be sick although it's not a medicine but I can give you strength to still be active throughout the day.

My report for today

I'm very heartened by the numerous replies and encouragement to do some pushups.

A friend of mine is a personal trainer, I'll be seeing her next week and will ask her to show me how to do both push ups and sit ups (the former I really can't do while the later I end up moving in a walrus lurching style from one end of a hall or room to the other and look very dorky doing too)

I have a walking app to track my daily walking (usually a min 1½ - 2 miles (2 - 3Klm) per day) so push ups might become a thing I do, too. (Just as an aside, I got advised to "walk up all flights of stairs briskly" for a very short burst of exercise which I've been doing for close to twelve months now).

I'm happy to see you motivated by our replies and effort, but you know there are several apps that you can learn how to do pushups from and can even act as a personal trainer or you can consider watching a YouTube video, it's not as hard as you think unless maybe some complex pushups that requires some experience from trainers, it's just an opinion advice it's also cool for you to meet a trainer.
I would have lived to share a link to an app I normally use but I dont think it would work in your location, but you can just search homework out on Google play store and you would see it HOME WORK NO EQUIPMENTS.

Today didn't go as expected for me, I was already feeling that I was well st 200 pushups but I failed to reach that threshold today, I got so weak at 180 and the last 20 seemed so impossible, even when I considered resting for a while I couldn't continue, I was only able to do 6 out of the last 20, so I'm not adding it up cause I was kind of disorganised, right now I'm feeling so sore and I guess it's because I'm rushing to much to stay at 200 pushups a day. Anyway I'll be fine in the morning.

My report for today.

Before we get to 100k we should be worrying about 50k first.
  BTC price action right is seriously challenging the walls its stayed within for the last few months.

Breaking out of range downwards is going to quickly put 50k pricing on the horizon.  Im used to BTC doing whatever it feels like so even a spike down to 30k is on my radar and I accept that volatility as part of the game we're in.

  If people want 100k be ready to handle the storm that comes challenging us downwards also, both are possible and right now you want to put these dreams higher away safely for another day because a rough pullback is not indicating us higher any time soon.  I reckon rough and uneven ground is where we tread until autumn tbh.

In general the topic seems a little to short term and has a lot of FOMO in it, that's why it's good to invest for long term you would have less to worry about price decrease and for someone that's just starting out like me I consider it an opportunity to acquire more bitcoin for a lower price.

But mostly I love your second paragraph as it points out that it's good to be mindful that while expecting that one thign might happen in bitcoin we should also be prepared for the opposite as a smart investor, many people were only prepared for bitcoin to increase in price and probably left no reserves to buy but now that it is dipping or maybe even over invested more than their disposable funds to much to bitcoin because they felt that it would hit 100k sooner and would be in so much panic now they are seeing other wise.

IMO  we should always maintain a balance In our investment and be prepared for anything, one thing that we can be sure of is that anything can happen in bitcoin.
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy Buy Buy or Sell Sell Sell? on: May 02, 2024, 05:36:50 PM
Proper buying time is when market goes to correction mood. Or after end of bull runs, you can check market was down for long. That was the time for investment and pick your Listed altcoins. Even in 2023, we also have opportunity to buy with lower price. But in 2024, everything is already overpriced. So buy is risky. But if someone didn't buy anything yet, then Market correction could an opportunity for investment. As like yesterday when market was down. But don't sell if you are holding btc ether or others potential altcoins. Cause these coins are doing be huge in upcoming days

You have a very wrong perspective relating to bitcoin and I think that's because you mess around with shitcoins too much, every time is a good time to buy bitcoin irrespective of the price or market condition, the question I should be asking you is what is your plan or what level have you gotten to in your bitcoin investment?, if you are just starting out buying bitcoin then you should be more concerned about accumulating enough bitcoin to be ready for price increase and yeah most folks have already been into bitcoin for long and already have a sizable investment for more than 5 years now and if they want to sell that's fine but that should be the though of someone who has had enough bitcoin.

16  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: May 02, 2024, 03:07:38 PM

I think what he mean is all of their money since its not really advisable to do since instead of you will be fine even if the market collapsed you will get panic about the situation since all of your money is there and get afraid of certain possibilities that you have a chance to lose. Much advisable to invest only the amount you afford to lose since any situation that will occur for sure will be tolerable to the investor since this is just the spare money used for investment   and they can focus on their goals since there's nothing to worry about on some situations currently happening in the market.
How will you be able to increase the quantity of your stack when your plan is to invest an amount you can afford to lose? It doesn't sound right that you're buying an asset like Bitcoinwith the mindset that you might loose your investment in the process and giving you the idea that it's best you invest so small such that if you loose in the process it wouldn't affect you. That mentality is only going to hinder you from attempting to invest above 5% to 10% of your income and that in itself means you're just gambling and don't understand what's the prospect of Bitcoin. Investing into Bitcoin isn't gambling that's a 50/50 thing and that's why Bitcoin entosiast like micro strategy still buys the amount of Bitcoin they are currently buying. Do you think they are buying at such pace and with such amount because they want to loose as high high $13.6B worth of Bitcoin? Once you're talking about investing with the fear of a possible market collapse  then it goes to show you can't invest inti bitcoin for the long run and that any correction you see with look like a threat that will tend to give you the impression of pulling out your asset.


Your wrong @maverlokg, it's right to invest the amount that you can afford to lose even when investing in an asset like Bitcoin and that does not mean that you are expecting something bad to happen to bitcoin, what this means is that you are aware that they is a possibility of your bitcoin investment to go to zero or not generate any profit throughout your time of investment, yeah no one invests and expect to lose all his investment along the line but when dealing with the future we still try best to retain the fact that anything is possible and to be prepared we must act alike and what you decide to do with the information of that possibility is up to you, if your response to that is to have a more whimpy investment and that's how your risk tolerance allows you then its okay and no one would force you or should tell you that to get more of the other possibility that bitcoin may increase in value and to get more out of it you should also invest more aggressively.

Yeah some people would rather think of a way to diversify into other asset as means that incase their investment in bitcoin doesn't do well then the other may do well. And at times it's better to have a well built investment in bitcoin then you can comdiser diversifying into.other asset at least 80% in bitcoin and 20% in other asset and if something happens you have back up and it still depends on the investor.

Diversification can be a tricky idea for newbies making them feel that theu have better luck for progress or to be rich by putting their eggs in several basket but also making them forget that the more you invest the more profit you should expect if eventually the asset does well, when it comes to bitcoint its has become so obvious that if you don't have a good stash or have not accumulated enough bitcoin then you should bother less about any price increase.

I am not sure if you are saying that correctly... because sometimes for newbies diversification is a kind of security blanket of not really knowing what they are investing into, and so yeah, sure most people don't know, and even people who invest into bitcoin, sometimes do not really know, so even though some of us might say to stop fucking around with shitcoins, there can be a perception that the bitcoiners are biased and we are merely pumping our bags.. .. so there is some kind of need to build some kind of a conviction in regards to the asset in which we are investing, so frequently if there is doubt about bitcoin, then there is going to be receptivity to both the shitcoin talking points, but also shitcoiners will also frequently be pushing the benefits of diversifying just in case bitcoin does not work or that some of the shitcoins might perform better than bitcoin and/or various other talking points, which frequently will sound convincing to a newbie.. including the "need to have an open mind".

Your very right, ideas of early diversification usually sprout up from uncertainty or disbelief on the asset they are investing into and in this case bitcoin, many people might not even know what bitcoin is or even have a sence of worth for its Value or be able to differentiate it from a shitcoin and approach it likewise so there could be this snece of wanting to diversify into other asset to be safe incase bitcoin doesn't do well or to also use shitcoins as a recovery incase bitcoin doesn't do well.

The best way to fix this kind of mentality If for newbies to come to have a conviction on bitcoin themselves and the vest way is to get started accumulating bitcoin and get to understand how bitcoin works.
Why this is important is cause if theu remain prone to disbelief they would always be open to shity talks about bitcoin and to invest in bitcoin and also they would not not be able to have rest investing in bitcoin cause they would always want safety or even consider using ETF vehicles or if they can't afford diversification they start to panic under small news or keeping close eye on their investment and this could also hinder how much they can invest in bitcoin.

Yes.. Join us, and try to do at least 10 pushups per day, otherwise no one is going to take you seriously and you might not get included in the table.. ..

I would suggest starting out with 5-10 per set and 5 sets per day and then working your way up to higher number of pushups in each set.

You can also do modified pushups, which would be from your knees or perhaps standing and leaning against a wall.. and of course hopefully with the goal of improving your strength, fitness and ability to do more pushups... which might even contribute to a better physique, too.



As far as my personal pushups go, yesterday I was on a streak for a record day, yet I ONLY ended up doing 3 sets for the day which I had right around 64 days of a streak of doing 5 sets per day, and I even had time to do two more sets yesterday, but I kind of got caught up doing some other stuff and I just forgot to fit in the two more sets of pushups.  Oh well that's o.k.  I still had 190 pushups yesterday, and yeah only three sets which was 69, 61, 60.. could have been a record day for quantity.. but too bad.

I am still potentially on course to be able to get an average of 200-pushups per day by my 100th day of pushups, but I would have to do at least 243.08 pushups per day for the next 13 days... .. So that is more than possible, even though I surely reduced my yesterday's amount by around 100 push-ups, and I also have so far preferred to limit the number of my sets to 5 per day (at least so far).  There is a bit of stress to keep these requirements upon myself.


Noted... Thanks big

Bayern ended the match 2-2. This is considered an advantage out of nothing. After being undefeated in the rematch, it is necessary to talk about the possibility of taking the match to extra time and penalties. The match between Bayern and Real was really enjoyable. At least we watched a match worthy of the semi-finals.
Bayern Munich just lost their chance of getting to a UCL final. This was the same mistake that Arsenal made that saw Bayern Munich into the semi finals, with Arsenal missing a chance to beat Bayern Munich in a home match, came up with a draw only to later lose to Bayern Munich in there home.
This is going to be the same for Bayern Munich. They just lost there chance to beat Real Madrid, it was surprising when they got in front after loosing in the first half but, they still lost their advantage by committing a penalty offense and Vini Jnr was sure to convert it.

At this point we can all guess the winner of the champions league, but yet the battle doesn't seem quite over to me, if history is a thing to look at, I remember how tuchek almost removed real Madrid with cheese some years back and same thing is happening again, despite coaching a better team the zeal and passion I'd really Madrid can not be quenched so easily, they did well today and gave us a match worth of a semi finals, although I'm quite disappointed that bayern would give off a penalty at that end minute of the match, to me the battle us still fresh and anything can still happen from here, but my bet is still placed on Madrid.

One

since it seems that 2 would put the UTC date as of the date of the post, which is likely going to screw up your system, since 1) you are not going to stop members from quoting other members and/or their reports. 2) members might still end up submitting two different reports on the same date.. but I suppose your system would always pick the latest report by any particular member.

We have been doing 1 so far, and doesn't 1 already work?  or are you saying that currently you are having to do too much fixing of the substantive details of the report before it prints.

I am not sure how 2 improves anything.. but whatever, I don't see any reason to vote.. .. you just tell us which system works best for you, and we just change how we submit our reports based on what you tell us to do. then if we change the way we do our reports, then you have to re-teach us the new format.

I am not attached either way, but I did vote as you instructed.

If the new improvement would mess thigns up a bit and stop people from quoting each other don't you think the thread would be a bit boring if we can't have conversation between ourselves, although I don't understand much about how you do what you do but I know it requires dedication to do something like this for everyone, so if this new pattern would reduce your stress then I think we have to comply with what us best for you.

If you are having much stress updating the table everyone due to everyone reporting daily then I think we can use try doing it as @ og nasty does to report once in 3 days or two days that way you would have lesser work to do daily and we can all still be active here having normal conversation and your workload would reduce.


It's been 3 days since I last reported and I have awesome new to share with everyone, I'm now able to do 200 pushups consistently, although it's not been a week yet since I first broke in but from my recent form I think I can well keep up with it, i would normally do more I the morning when my strength is fresh and would do a total of 25 pushups per set and up to 5 sets in the morning although I tend to do more like yesterday and the day before, then I do 2 sets in the afternoon and finish up in the evening. I'll be giving a cumulative report for the past 3 days.

My report
