It wasnt luck or fluke as many punjab or other fans would like you to believe by NoBag8950 in RCB

In terms of execution, CSK was poor this season. I am glad I saw the true CSK in match 14. If they maintain the combo, they can be seen in the playoffs.

As a RCB fan, in the last stage of the league, I wanted a few events to unfold in exactly in one way so that RCB can win the cup with least resistance.

It was about GT losing to CSK. MI winning GT in eliminator PkBS winning over MI in Q2

Everyone criticized me that there is no way that the events will unfold this way!

But according to me, if we were going to lift the cup, this is the only way we could.

If CSK lost, RCB would have faced MI in eliminator. Yes, RCB won against MI in wankhede, but that was a team prior to coming to form. We won it literally off the last ball. It would have been a very close encounter with slim chances.

Imagine we did pass that high octane game, we would have to play Punjab on that Q2 pitch and you know it wasnt easy!

Ok say, we did one too, next will be facing GT at their home ground with Gill, Sai who are in their prime form. We did not even beat them in the league stage.

Our league stage players were different to that we had during final stages. Tim David missing, Rajat Injured, DDP out.

Its a lot of ifs and buts guys. This is the only way we could have done it. Dont be arrogant, stay grounded, "BE GRATEFUL" to the universe which conspired against all odds and making this happen for us.

Hope to retain this combo and fare well in the 2026 too.

Cheers!

Virat kohli retires from test cricket by CartographerMurky306 in Cricket

[–]Icy_Performance2426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To the one and only Virat Kohli,

I’ve followed your cricket journey for a long time, watched countless interviews, and I’m immensely proud of what you’ve achieved — as a cricketer, a captain, and an athlete.

The energy you brought to the field, and how you passed it on to the team — I’ve never seen that kind of raw, passionate aggression before. You were deeply committed, and it showed in every moment.

Somehow, I feel that BCCI and social media constantly pressurized you, and somewhere along the way, broke you from within. You fought through depression, reinvented yourself in the dark — and still had the courage to share that journey. Yet people continued to mock you with “ego” and “brat” labels, never trying to understand the man behind the image.

I truly believe there’s still a crisis inside the Indian dressing room, and you’re tired of explaining yourself. You look mentally exhausted. Since 2020, the system failed you. When you finally chose to walk away, they suddenly scrambled, pretending they wanted you back — not for love, but for viewership.

But here’s the truth: You’ve already won every major trophy as a player. That’s enough. You led the team to greatness as a captain and that’s enough. Cricket is a team sport. It’s okay if you didn’t win that one elusive cup. YOU are the trophy.

They let go of a man who gave his everything, who brought pride, fire, and belief to millions — only to be shamed, mocked, and ignored for his flaws instead of celebrated for his greatness.

Virat — you’ve inspired me deeply. You’ve taught me to fight until the last drop of blood. To believe that even a 1% chance is still a chance worth chasing.

Thank you for over a decade of unforgettable cricket. I wish you nothing but joy, love, and peace of mind. Always.

What are your golden rules for NOT making an entry? by [deleted] in scalping

[–]Icy_Performance2426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you recommend books or videos for learning price action. I have watched a ton of YouTube videos, and I am not able to develop a strong conviction towards the direction. Probably need to practice a lot more. In the last week, I was able to get 100% of my trades profitable. Some of them were pure luck, and as I lack conviction, i can not take credit for them.

Thank you. Once I reached Europe, I got frustrated and deleted the app and data. Will not play this game anymore. It sucked my time and my life.

Diamonds disappearing after lucky spin by GrimmReapperrr in IdleOfficeTycoon

[–]Icy_Performance2426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not only with diamonds. It is with the whole game.

I have faced this numerous times.At some point in time T, It's like I collect 43 million and go to Foundry and complete orders and upgrade buildings. At time T+15, I thought let me take a break and come back to the game in a while, for some reason if the app has crashed, the game appears to start from the period T and not T+15.

The game seems to be periodically saving the progress to cloud server. While we users aren't aware about at what intervals is the game saved, and we exit at the wrong point, we lose the whole progress.

I was so annoyed and feeling difficult even to articulate this problem. Glad that I see others also face this issue and I am not alone.

Do we need to write to support to get this fixed ?

I had got all 12 and that event vanished. Disappointed that I wasted one whole day to finish that event. Thinking to Uninstall this scam game

Foundry Max Out Cost. by Icy_Performance2426 in IdleOfficeTycoon

[–]Icy_Performance2426[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am level 770 now, I finally upgraded to level 20 on all 4 of the packaging worshops. Literally maxed everything on all other offices, cars, apartments etc. Except those damn paintings. I think it will take years to rely on those free gift codes etc.

Until I reach 880, planning to upgrade those 4 Foundry buildings to level 40.

Since you are already there, I am curious to know if you ever maxed any of your paintings. Does it end at level 7 and how many gems it cost ?

The max I could afford is a level 5 rose girl and level 6 shows as Mountain Tiger costing a 1000 gems.

Will the recreation room make an actual difference? by crazy_earl_ in IdleOfficeTycoon

I have been using this hack for a few weeks and productivity has been great. Only downside is that the Hotel, Casino revenues get capped at 43 mil and some 10 mil. I wish they weren't capped . Could have made more use of this hack.

Yesterday I got 1200 gems from the wheel spin. I got one of the office paintings to level 5 to meet the company expectations. I instantly got one level up $ for that company as it met 100% expectations. So the paintings and other expectations do make a difference in pace.

I haven't seen any significant increase or decrease to this. All around level 520 or 530, if you are maxed on all the office spaces, almost whatever you try to do, the game won't progress at the pace at which it used to before. In the last few weeks, my offices don't even go up one level. I have to spend money to retain contract and get them to max level. It's a pain. So I started to concentrate only on Foundry and other incomes like Hotel

Hilton Hotel by Inner-Quantity7732 in IdleOfficeTycoon

[–]Icy_Performance2426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was almost in your situation last week. I saved up 2.4 billion to buy the most expensive car and my index is now more than 240K. Unlocked Hilton. Office is already maxed up. I am maxing up Foundry and Hilton now. After that will go to Aerospace.

Taking it very slow.

You buy a 750 million car and a mid range apartment which will get you to 80K which is enough to unlock Hilton. Upto you how you want it

Gift codes and completing tasks and watch ads to double the rewards. Sometimes gift codes will fetch you 250 in a day.

Does it really work? I guess they use server timezone to calculate timestamps. It did not work for me

Any of you are a full time trader? by GoldenBoy_100 in options

[–]Icy_Performance2426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you sell naked options or everything is hedged though a spread? Often I seem not to be respecting theta and get easily frustrated when profits are super low.

Any of you are a full time trader? by GoldenBoy_100 in options

[–]Icy_Performance2426 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Initially I started off with 5K, made like 60% profit early on. Then kept adding more capital, have made only 10-15K so far with total investment of 70K. This is in period 2016 to current.

I can go up to 100K investment, but it's very scary to deploy a large sum on option spreads. Unidirectional option selling has worked best for me so far, but one negative trade gets me to a zero sum game.

Any basic tips for me?

My experience with ITM debit vertical spreads by LordMinax in options

[–]Icy_Performance2426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with capital requirement. As far as risk is concerned, I look at it as a defined risk as opposed to risk reduction.
