I never tested how close you can go before the first ball to be bowled for the match but yes they lock it once the game starts and in Cricket the toss event happens I guess half an hour before the match to start. So yes, you can pick/change your team/prediction after the toss. This is why I do not lock my pick LOL

And thanks for the shout out for the cap. I hope I get into a campaign where they don't need me to change my avatar :-P

Here are some hilarious comments,






Bangladesh fan deserves the fun. It was indeed a great win.

This was an unpredictable win for Bangladesh. Only two out of sixteen pool members got it right. Have a look



Only 2% were able to pick the outcome LOL

By the way, for todays match my initial pick is England - comfortable but if England bat first then I may change it to easy win because I believe in that case England has very much possibility to win this match by 50 - 99 runs margin.

So, after seeing the toss result I may change my decision.

Note: Guys check my avatar. It's SICK, ins't it? Thanks to Homer.

I got your PM and thanks for the response. Good to know that there were no issue from the mixing side. I had no idea that tx timing could be a pointer to find a tx. I though it's hard to find a specific tx in a block :-P

F**K aye!
I knew it! Thank you again Homer.

Unfortunately I am out of sMerit, I know you don't need it but I owe you some bud.

Love the design. :-)

And here we have result. Bangladesh won. The South African team should be disappointed. Very few people were siding Bangladesh and eventually they won.

pffrt and webtricks got one point each and we got nothing LOL

Congrats Bangladesh team.

This is our standing after 5th match:

From this stage Bangladesh should win. South Africa needs 93 runs from 54 balls. Unless they start to hit some fours and sixes now, they will have very less chance to win. Still this match is exciting for me, not sure what about all of you.

Well Miller is capable to turn the match around. Still the match is not safe for Bangladesh. If they can manage to take one or two more wickets in the next 50 runs then there will be a good chance for them.

If Bangladesh win then only pffrt and webtricks will be able to get some points in the pool. This will be a great shock for rest of us who picked South Africa LOL

This is the current standing now:

Okay unfortunately yes this is the address where I received the coins. This means I owe you (00127571BTC-tx fees) BTC.

Now my question to [banned mixer] (MixTum_Bitcoin_Mixer) what went wrong? If this can be found then I believe MixTum is not doing that they were suppose to do.

I have no idea about the technical knowledge Thirdspace have, but if he can find it then for the big corporations/agents it should be very easy.

I am looking forward to the answers.

Bangladesh did some miss-fielding although I think they are a good fielding side. The captain needs to be more aggressive so that South Africa feel pressure to take runs. They need a wicket as soon as they can.

Let's see how they do.

By the way, everyone please do not forget to pick your winners for tomorrows match.

Thought to post it again just to get your attention.

Cheers :-)

Since this is a self moderated topic I think advantage is in your hand. I would really like to see some analysis to back up the picks :-)

Bangladesh really did well in this match and guess what I have risked some BTC for them. Got the odd @2.24 so could not resist to favor a team who scored 330 runs :-P
Although for a team like South Africa this should not be hard to chase.

Mushfiq gone. This is what I have noticed for Bangladeshi Batsmen, they can not convert the 50 to 100. All of a sudden they lost 5 wickets where should have more runs in the bag. I too believer that they will score 300+ runs but I doubt if it will be 320+. 320+ would have been nice.

Well yes, we can confirm that there were no issue from the forum side. It must be the email client. I am using gmail which I guess most of us do. I think it could be the same email subject. My setup was the same from long time and those post notifications were working all those days except yesterday. Although I have manually marked all these emails as Not Junk and since then I am receiving them in my inbox again.

Anyway, since it's not forum issue which we can confidently say, I am locking this topic.

Cheers everyone.

Well I still believe South Africa can even win a match chasing 350+ runs. They just need to stay calm. Come on South Africa, get a wicket, break the partnership. :-P

I am also started to believe it. South Africa will easily going to have a 300+ run target. They have good record to chase high scores but remember Bangladesh has good spin attack. If Bangladesh somehow manage to win this match then South Africa will be in trouble.

This was a wired experience. I found the emails in the junk folder. It was wired because all the emails to notify a post in a topic were going to the junk folder but board notification (notification for new topic posting) were working fine.

I checked the incoming email address and both were noreply@bitcointalk.org but it was behaving different for two different features (Board notification and Post notification).

Any explanation?

Well then South Africa is in need of some wickets to restrict Bangladesh under 300 runs although I believe 350+ runs are not even safe when South Africa is chasing.

This match is going to be an interesting one. I am enjoying it.

I gotta say this is very good showdown from Bangladesh. I personally did not expect that. I knew this team has ability to play good cricket but I never expected this level. Seems like they are giving very hard time to South Africa.

Does anyone have any idea about their lower order batting strength? If they have good batsmen in the lower order then they will easily cross 300 runs I think and in that case I see South African are in trouble.
