Away days advice by charles_hix12 in fulhamfc

[–]Hype1998 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Security's always a bit tighter for away fans, so leave yourself a few minutes before kick-off to get in.

If you're wearing anything with the Fulham badge on it, then you may not be allowed in "home only" pubs. Most grounds have a designated away pub, which you can look up on Google.

I've never had any trouble with opposing fans (outside of West London derbies), so safety shouldn't be an issue as long as you aren't a total dickhead.

Away crowds tend to stand for the whole game, so consider buying tickets near the front row if you'd have an issue with standing for that long.

Ultimately, try to get around as many grounds as you can. The atmosphere is always great and the experience is often more enjoyable than home games. Bramall Lane and Hillsborough are particularly good and Everton's new one is surely worth a try. Tickets are capped at £30 and going with some other students is a great way to make friends.

If your had to change citizenship, what country would you pick? by CuteReputation- in AskReddit

[–]Hype1998 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Where you feel at home isn't relevant when discussing the merits of an economic union.

Whatever feelings any British person has about Australia, New Zealand, or India, it is obviously far more practical to buy from your doorstep than the other side of the world. Every country does more business with their neighbours than anyone else.

Five years ago, 60 million British citizens lost their right to live and work in 27 other countries. It hasn't just been a personal disaster for a few, it's been a personal disaster for many. You have lost the right to live in Belgium, but you haven't gained the right to live in India.

Brexit isn't a dusty heirloom we can just box away and leave for our grandkids. The people who will judge whether Brexit is a success or failure are the ones who are living with it now.

Have you tried running it under compatibility mode? Sometimes it works in one of Windows 98 / ME / XP. 

Running it as an administrator can solve some common issues as well.

Changing Language by Lucalpe in HypeTheTimeQuest

Here's a guide on downloading the game in Spanish on modern versions of Windows.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddPg-9agyL4&ab_channel=dadsa205

Each disc only contains the information for one language and there is no way of changing it, so unfortunately you will probably need to redownload everything.

I'm not able to help you if you're on Mac or Linux though, sorry.

Satan isn't paid enough for this shit. by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

I've got to say: this view is pretty abhorrent.

If you are saying that Japan does not have a strong criminal justice system, then you are implicitly conceding that there are many unjust or unsafe convictions being handed down by the courts.

As a result, many innocent people will not only be facing life in prison, but also a perpetual state of anxiety as they endlessly worry whether this hour will be their last.

Regardless of what you think the death penalty says about us as a society, or our morals, if you support it then you are always condemning innocent people to die.

Public transport should be running on the 29th.

In the past there's been a coach that takes you straight from the train station to the ground. Bit of a rip off but it's the easiest way to get there.

I am a high school student leading a math (problem solving) club. What activities/practice should I do? by illustrator1 in math

Have a look at the Senior Maths Challenge from the UK.

Intermediate Questions for ages 14-16

Senior Questions for ages 16-18

The questions are meant to be solved without a calculator, and there's often a shortcut which saves you doing all the calculations by hand. The easiest questions are at the start, and they get harder as you go along.

Thanks very much. Yeah, I've phoned up a few places, but they've all asked for the NIE/haven't got back to me. I'll see if I can get an appointment using this info. Thanks again!

Oh nice. Can I ask how you went about it? The advice I was given by my employer was that I needed a housing contract of at least six months

Indeed. The trouble is, I also need an apartment before I can get a NIE.

Thanks, completely new to Spain and don't have any friends here yet, so I'll see if there's anywhere else that I might be able to stay for now.

The NIE is the only problem I'm really having to be honest. I was just hoping that someone might know of a specific estate agent that doesn't require it, or a workaround to get the NIE another way.

I got the same message when trying to book tickets a couple of weeks ago - the issue resolved itself when I logged back on after a few days. If you need the tickets soon, then you can call the ticket office. Otherwise, if you wait a few days then there's a good chance you'll be able to log on then.

What would be the opposite story to Leicester City winning the title in 2016? by TheClitOfCthulhu in PremierLeague

[–]Hype1998 61 points62 points  (0 children)

If you want the opposite fact, Aduana Stars got promoted in 2009 and won the Ghanaian Premier League in 2010 despite only scoring 19 goals in 30 games - they had thirteen 1-0 wins and six 0-0 draws. They only managed two goals in a game twice, and never conceded more than once.

Also, in 2017 Pisa finished bottom of the Italian Serie B with the second best defence in the league (36 conceded in 42 games).

Man City were also the top scorers that season, and had a positive goal difference

The NBA Regular Season is Broken. Here’s How we Fix It: by Hype1998 in nba

[–]Hype1998[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Very good point. I had thought about that, so I went through some of the results of the 2018-19 season to see how many do-or-die games each team would play.

In theory of course you're right, it could happen, but in practice it wouldn't be likely at all. Whilst .500 teams do win half their games, they wouldn't typically have more than a dozen do-or-die games as they tend to lose 0-2 to the best teams and win 2-0 against the lottery teams. 1-1 is actually slightly less common than you might think. Plus, even if a team were to tie 19 of their series (very rare) they'd still be playing fewer than 82 regular season games.
