If cricket wants to grow in to a global sport, then it needs to adapt with the changing times. Test cricket is definitely not compatible with the current circumstances. Earlier people used to have a lot of free time, and it was possible to devote 5 days to watching a test match once a month or so. But life has become more hectic now and we need to popularize the shorter format of the game, if we want to attract more people. LOL, you're late. It's already beginning!  2019–21 ICC Test ChampionshipThe 2019–21 ICC World Test Championship is the inaugural edition of the ICC World Test Championship of Test cricket. It will start from 1 August 2019 with the first Test of the 2019 Ashes series, and finish with a final at Lord's in England in June 2021. ...and: Lord's set to host World Test Championship final, may lose 2021 Afghanistan Testhttps://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/27295406/lord-set-host-world-test-championship-final-lose-2021-afghanistan-test |

Anyways, what do you say about the usage of the sum of both the rankings divided by 2? For example, if Binance has an Alexa ranking of 752 and a SimilarWeb ranking of 958, we can just consider it to be (752+958)/2 = 855?
I still think that it's unnecessary to add such a ranking (as it's mostly based on traffic), even though the formula you're suggesting is pretty simple. IMO, it'd be quite cool as we'll get to know which exchange has the most traffic. If an exchange has a lot of traffic and has a very low ranking, it's a sign that the exchange is wash-trading. CoinEX exchange has been added to the comparison. Moreover, I'm trying to keep a track of all the exchanges-related scam accusations in the following thread, so that I may include its column in the comparison: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5168200.0Regarding this list, the thread is locked so how can users submit the scam accusations? Well, that thread isn't for all the users and it's only to keep a track of all the scam accusations previously (or newly) posted on the Scam Accusations section. You're not supposed to make a scam accusation there. |

engaging argumentative noobs and r0ach doesn't make for the best WO
Regarding the user you mentioned, I am always surprised that we can let him deliver the insanities/outrageous opinion he has been uttering here for so long. Some of his writings are punishable and even if this part of the forum is not moderated or very little, some things are not tolerable. (And I'm not even one of these people he seems to hate sooo much.) My 2 cents, I had to say it  TBH, I'm fine with r0ach. It's good to have at least one active troll around who you can bash when BTC pumps tremendously. |

-Coin: HUSH (HUSH) -Price: <0.0000050 BTC -Target: >0.0000065 BTC -Exchange: Graviex -Risk level: HIGH
~snip~... moving all my trading stash into ADA (currently at 735 satoshis), and leaving it all there for at least the next 3 days. Till then, no trading!
It was a bad decision as ADA visited about 500 satoshis a couple of days back. However, a nice breakout is visible on multiple timeframes after today's jump to 600 satoshis, and because of that, I'm increasing my current ADA position. Still in ADA trade. |

Can understand why many people feel that Australia can win this Ashes series especially after watching England collapse in their 1st innings against Ireland, but the manner in which they fought back proves how fearsome they can be.
The current England lineup is something else thanks to the selectors focusing on strike rate primarily which is why my bet is on England to win the Ashes this year.
Ireland would not rank among the top 15 teams in cricket (if all of them had test status), and bowling them out for 38 can't be taken as a measurement for the ferocity of the English attack. You should not forget the fact that the English bowlers conceded 200 plus during the first innings. I am still mad at England for robbing the world cup from a more deserving team. I just hope that the Aussies will teach them a lesson and show how to play ethically. Heh, I'm waiting for Ashes very eagerly as well. IMO, Australian players are more Test-ish than ODI or T20; Steve Smith, David Warner, Usman Khawaja, etc, like to first stabilize themselves on the crease and then make an inning. In ODIs, they don't get enough time to establish themselves on the crease and they're forced to go for the big shorts before they feel more comfortable. However, in Test matches, they can play at their best. Is this the first time that Steve Smith and David Warner are playing a Test-format match after their ban? |

If you look at football then you will see that they have different topics for different leagues. Like for EPL, CL, Serie A etc. Plus they have these pools in the separate thread. When we will have specific topics then it's more useful to discuss in dept. Everything in a topic most of the times miss important conversations.
Thank you for responsing. This is how I think- This is the main thread for cricket discussion. We can get all the discussion here. On occasion like world cup, ipl, champion trophy, we can create a thread and discuss there. Now that we have 3 threads, people will discuss the same in at least two of the threads. One in main thread, another in t20 or test (depends on format). It will increase spam in the long run. Now, people can say locking this thread which I would not agree. It's an old thread which must be kept alive. Would be happy to hear other people opinion. My focus is to reduce spam. Well, we can always use the "Report to moderator" button if we find someone spamming or discussing the same topic on multiple threads. IMO, we can keep this thread for general discussion of cricket and use the remaining three threads to talk about the relevant format series in them. I don't see any issue in it TBH. |
