scondy:So on what factual basis did you then first dream of a 5 man line up and then conclude that Imisi has outperformed Laycon under similar circumstances? |
Beorn:Actually I beg to differ. The best way I can illustrate this is with football since you follow the sport. It's like saying Arsenal who came second with 89 points in EPL 2024 season did better than Leicester city who won the league in 2016 with only 80 points. You can only compare with what's in front of you at the time. Lockdown season had the highest engagement numbers ever in bbn history, but generally people regard pepperdem and perhaps now this 10/10 season as the most interesting ever. |
scondy:Check my last response to you. Your statement about 5 man line up is also a projection which you cannot arrive at without projecting that 4 of the current final contestants would be removed to get a 5 man line up. I need kudos instead lol |
zero8zero:Nah, it's logic. |
scondy:You still don't get it Ma'am. This is not probability. You already have the actual numbers for Imisi's eight competitors in a 9 man line up- so this is not guess work. Question is if the line up were reduced to 5, what would have been Imisi's highest possible percentage? Since there are no additional external variables, the logic is that in a 5 man line up, the 6th to 9th contestants would have been evicted before the final. Since the 2nd (Dede) to 5th (Kola) contestant would still be on the final line up, it is logical to conclude that their voting percentages would not change from what it is now. So that's constant. Now assuming generously that all the actual votes of the 6th to 9th contestant were to go to Imisi that's 12% of existing total votes in total (since we now know the actual numbers in hindsight) If their voters all vote for Imisi, then she gets additional 12% to the 42%, making her attain 56% at the.maximum in a 5 man final line up. This is the logic and its completely accurate. |
zero8zero:The variables are the contestants and they are all represented in the 9 man line up. Remove the ones that would have been evicted to make a 5 man line up and add them to Imisi's numbers to get the ceiling of her voting percentage. In reality, her actual numbers would be lower than that in a 5 man line up. |
davodyguy:Wrong. Check my response to Scondy. Imisi's highest in a 5 man line up would have been 56% if all the votes of the 6th to 9th contestants went to her. |
carammel:Wrong. Add the percentages from 6th Jason Jae to the last person to Imisi's 42%, the highest she can get in a 5 man line up is 56% which is a stretch. |
scondy:No she didn't beat Laycons record. To confirm, let's assume all the votes of the 6th (Jason J) to 9th contestant (Kaybobo) are for Imisi (which is even an exaggeration). That's 12% additional votes for Imisi. Add 12% to Imisi's 42%, you'd have 56% for her in a 5 man line up. 56% is the best she can get and that's not possible cos all the other 4 contestants votes cannot go to Imisi in reality. Laycon remains the Goat. This is my first comment on this thread all season. |
raumdeuter: And the ara yen de san very well, lightning bolt from Caicedo! |
raumdeuter:Lol, I know say this one go sweet you well. Master Kodi kodi don give you another meme for the ages . Dance for me baby.

Silentgroper:The way you guys interpet facts dey muzz person walahi. Yes Messi scored only 6 Ligue 1 goals in his first season which was a huge drop off from his usual standards, but does it erase the fact that he made it up by banging 21 goals with 42 total goal contributions in his second season in same league? Obviously not! Why are you ignoring his second season success in France on the back of which, in combination with the World cup win, he won the ballon dor? You guys talk as if your same Pendu did not flop in his second season of return to the EPL. [/b] I mean Ronaldo had a measly ONE EPL goal in the entire first half of 2022/2023 season before he was disgraced out of England and shipped off to Saudi. [b] Looking at it now, this is even worse than Messi's 6 goal league tally. Why are we not focusing on that? Because it's irrelevant over a career span of mostly ups and few downs which happens to any great player. Ronaldo de lima scored a total sum of 4 goals in 2005/2006 season in Spain and 2 goals in 07/08 in Serie A. The point is Messi has had successful stints in Spain, Argentina, France (22/23 season) and the US over his career. These are facts that cannot be argued with. A single 11 goal blip of a season cannot brush off this unparalleled success. After all which great player has never had a dip in their careers. Shuo! |
surgical:Calm down and learn. Banks are not empowered by law to deduct taxes on customers accounts (except for withholding taxes on interest income you earn from them) . Only FIRS/State boards of internal revenue can impose taxes on your 'income'. And the way the process works is that if, for example, you have inflows of 5million naira in a year in your account and the tax man becomes aware of this, you may get a letter from the tax authority assessing the entire or part of the 5million to tax. But this doesnt mean you will automatically pay the tax assessment on the 5m. You would then respond formally to the same tax authority explaining why the 5m should not be taxed. They will give you the chance to explain yourself and if you can prove that some of the bank inflows are not income to you e.g loan or Ajo, they will adjust their calculations to only the part that is income which you will then go ahead to pay. This is how the process works. No bank will start calculating tax for you. |
OneCandleAway:Absolute bollocks! This isn't the case at all. |
Arostar2023:People are not even reading the tax laws. No where in there does it impose tax on cashflows or bank accounts. If you have inflows that are not income such as borrowings, refunds, passthroughs etc, they are not taxable. Don't understand why peeps are whipping up what's not over this issue. |
Baggiojephlini:Lol, you are just worrying yourself for nothing. The new tax laws do not state that bank inflows will be taxed. Only inflows that are income to your wife will come under risk of tax. So let your wife do her collections in peace |
All I can say is that the ignorance on this thread about how taxes operate is mind-boggling! I don't even know where to start from ![]() |
Valencia must collect their 7-kondo just like last season. It doesn't matter who played the game. |
That Yacht costs way more than 1 million dollars. The structural design is flawed. It looks top heavy, too tall and narrow, hence why it probably sank. |
Achor1111:The girl is obviously exceptional. But have you considered that her school is likely located in the South East? Which would mean a South easterner would most probably win the prize for Yoruba in any case. I know Igbo and Yoruba are subjects offered in secondary schools nationwide under WAEC curriculum. |
DenreleDave:Bro is this a joke?? What exactly is the issue as I see no correlation between the 35k and your intention to divorce your wife. By the way, why are you starving your family? |
oz4real83:I agree. Wouldn't also argue if I was being moved to a better seat lol. But then that emergency seat compliance is a non-negotiable rule due to the high safety risk so the passenger really doesn't have a choice. |
Artzdanielsz:People that seat by the exit door in airplanes must be physically strong in order to be able to lift the door quickly in case of emergency (the door is quite heavy). If an old man is seated there, he denies the other passengers the chances of quick escape in emergency situations. |
oz4real83:He could have selected it himself during the online check in process. As long as the seat is available, anyone can select it during online check in. |
Numerouno94:We are good bro. Thanks and wish you also beautiful things. |
OJEEMAH:Brotherly dey whine me with Venus lol. Happy for you man. We suppose video call one of these days. @Almiron I hail una too o. Pls show my bro here enough workings on how to navigate Obodo Canada wella. And keep peppering dem Pendu boys ![]() |
Numerouno94:Number one thanks for tagging me o. Be like I don come late to the party . Our gallant comrades Ojeemah and Almiron don jump ship no time Eze and Isak dey learn work for their side lol.Baba G go run our own package too amen. |
Pedriii!!!!!!!! What a rocket!!! Game on! |
OJEEMAH:I'm fine bro thanks. |
OJEEMAH:OJ man, those type of silly comments wey fit nauseate the dead to life ![]() Trust you ve been good bro |
