Sylvekzee: The mobile site always comes online a day to the start of the season. So right now, it's still not availableThanks, man. I wonder how I never paid attention to that in all my years of playing. ![]() |
Has anybody noticed that the mobile site for the game is no longer working, or is it just me? ![]() |
lekkie073: ur case remains the same with Liverpool wey manage enter top4 due to manutd's negligence.....where were u when I finished 2nd behind azpec in Carling cup and top25 in npl 2 seasons ago?Huh? Where was I? I took the Nairaland FA Cup home at Ritchboy's expense and finished in the classic league's top 20. I just don't blow my trumpet. |
lekkie073: make thunder draw tattoo for ya nyansh thereFor where? Ewo ko le wole. O futu fete. I need not use expletives to make my point. I speak better with my FPL managerial acumen. No show boating, though. |

ladywriter: @ U1, I understand your thoughts.I love your spirit, ma'am. The fact you don't write articles anymore says it all. I'm also looking for ways to diversify myself. Perhaps, you can show me where or how you acquired the other skills. |
ladywriter: @U1, I started writing articles at $1.00 and then $1.25, $2, $2.5, $3 and eventually $5. It really helped me to build my credibility and rating on freelancer and also polished my writing skill. For each project you complete successfully, you receive a feedback from the client and freelancer gives you a star. Most employers will check the number of projects you complete before they can hire you. When you have lots of reviews from employers, it will erase the fact that you are from Africa. You will be seen as a professional. I have seen people who started on freelancer and have their own content writing business today. It is a starting point. You need to start from somewhere because Rome was not built in a day.But I tell you, it's hard to break that cycle of low rates if you start at something like $1 per 500-word article. At least $1.5 is advisable, because there's still no guarantee that some buyers will leave you any feedback or a good one, if they did, after making you work for pennies. I never did that for my first wholly writing job. But this is the sort of rate that dominates Freelancer now. Users like "Mohd" with hundreds of reviews are ever ready to mop up better paying jobs, even those paying $2.5 or maybe less per piece. As if that is not bad enough, I suspect many unserious buyers have infested the site. You bid for several jobs without getting any response and, few weeks or months later, you are notified the jobs have expired without any hire. I think that site is just living on old glory, especially in terms of article writing and data entry/processing categories. If you are being paid $5 a piece, as you said, I still don't see you regularly earning more than $400 after fees each month, as article orders have a significant role to play in earnings. |
Three7Ty9: Babe, there is no definite answer to em, it all depends on how you think. The question's are meant to test your thought process and creative thinking.Abeg, how about McKinsey? |
gmacnoms: It reminds me of d oda day i was takin a test frm one of dis coys. Mehn d qstns brot dis tot in2 me.. " If dem no wan employ pesin y dem no js tell us. Which one cum b all dis kind qstn.Abi na. Small time dem go talk say they're trying to assess how you reason. Shuo! |
ladywriter: @Joeself1, you keep bidding until your bid is picked. On the average, if i placed 10 bids, I get at least 2 jobs. The more you bid, the more your success of getting picked.Good job, ladywriter! But I was about challenging the claim of making $1,000 a month writing articles on Freelancer until I read the above. It must have even been long when you used to earn $400 a month. The article writing section is a joke now, at least based on what I saw from my last few visits there. I can tell you now that it is very hard for an average writer to earn up to $300 a month on that site -- something that can only happen if you receive jobs worth at least 100, 500-word pieces each month. This is also given you are from Africa or Asia. You can go check again if it's been a while since you visited. Since I have yet to dabble into the other areas you mentioned, I can't comment in those regards. Don't get me wrong, people. I'm not discouraging anyone, but don't set your sight too high just yet. You shouldn't be surprised to see rates such as $0.75 and $1 for a 500-word piece. oDesk seems a bit more friendly and manageable for now, albeit not devoid of ridiculously low rates. |
It's questions like these that make me think it will not be a bad idea to have my own business. ![]() |
azpekuliar: Debosky is a Fantasy football euphemism for an also-ran or a filler i.e somebody just in the league to make up the numbers e.g Stoke City/Westbrom .. Just happy for the opportunity to be participatingGuy, wetin Debosky do you na? See as you dey take am wash. My man fit just be another Ritchboy this season o, but don't quote me. ![]() |
lalaboi: Hahah You don late.. Dude don use bearbear wash ground for us here. E don colet codeYou no mean am. |
I meant codes, actually. Classic and FA Cup especially. By the way, I hope Ibime won't enter the FA Cup through the backdoor o. He is not qualified to mix with the strong-hearted. ![]() |
Time for some fantasy business again! Muki, Muki, nack me the code abeg. Indomitables Lawa for last season. |
Happy birthday. |
To be fair to Airtel, I think they are the worst network in Nigeria currently, at least in terms of customer service and quality. I make use of lines from all GSM networks in Nigeria and I can tell you Airtel is the only one I have had damaged-SIM issues on -- about four times at that! The last time my Airtel SIM got damaged, I was at their office at Ilupeju about three times before being able to retrieve it as they claimed their network was down on those occasions. They eventually gave me a new SIM to insert in my phone after a specified time after they had collected N500 (for the SIM and N400 airtime). I was never credited the airtime, even after calling customer care. It's also more than three years ago that these people have bothered to respond to emails I sent to them, with no failed delivery notifications received. Just days back, they wiped my call balance while trying to use the 500% daily bonus they claimed to have given me. Nothing was done about it as their call agents preferred to end my calls on the two occasions I got through. Airtel is simply a nightmare! I don't even know if I'll ever recharge the line again. |
Somehow, I think I have snagged another win in the FA Cup, even without captain bonus. My first back-to-back wins in a while. Galacticos, you took a big risk there making 4 transfers against a team set up like mine, you know? Perhaps, you don even submit before the matches kick off sef. |
If you never get Coleman by now, you are wrong. ![]() |
Not even a single bonus point, while an opponent even dey get maximum bonus points for his two Man Utd defenders on top clean sheet. It's quite disappointing to even think the opposing team was worth just about £98m. ![]() |
Na wa o. See as Man City and Hull City change form so tey one come become the other. But because of the thing wey the two Manchester clubs do me today, make them no smell Europe at the end of the season, let alone winning the domestic or any title. No apology. ![]() |
[quote author=p_kasso]Team sheets are out! No Yaya Toure and Negredo for City.I don die today.Let the lamentations begin! [/quote]The lamentation don start o. But why I waste my transfer for Toure now? With captain not playing and vice benched, it wouldn't be bad to start looking forward to next game week. |
chamotex: You guys should be there analysing for other people instead of you to be helping yourselves to move up the table. ![]() |
Deiok: Phuck this GW, i regret not substituting mignolet, suarez worst performance, lukaku failed to score once again, shane long sitting on the bench once again, is anything worst than this.That isn't the mentality of winners, really. You are not the only one to be bundled out of the Knockout Cup at the first hurdle. Life goes on, man. Don't go doing another Ibime now. ![]() But I was happy that Chamo was paid in the same coin I have been paid times before. That has, hopefully, bought me time until the January wildcard kicks in. |
Just can't wait for the January wildcard to kick in. This team needs to be refreshed for the final push to defend our title. |
majalisa: I left u some screen shots on d oda thread,I know exactly wat am talking about d way u know exactly wat u r talking about...I repeat myself for emphasis "is a scam to me" unless when the do somthing about my case...come to think of it ur surname na GLO?Shuo! You never know as e dey go? E don tey wey I don dey observe say our man na Glo customer care rep and I'm over 90 percent sure about that. At least, it's good they took time out to address complaints here. |
Damn! Over-rated Spurs defence at White Hart Lane and took the armband from El Pistolero. The rest is history. This Suarez na terror o. I wonder why Man of the Match honour was given to Henderson, by the way. ![]() |
[quote author=A-40]Remy oloriburuku! See chance wey the mutulla miss sha[/quote]That guy, I no go talk say I regret allowing point deductions to get him only to get about 8 points over four gameweeks in return. Guess he has seen the last week in my team, at least for now. ![]() |
OAM4J: ^I actually gave you till January end. But shifting goal post is disallowed, after all its fantasy football ![]() |
lalaboi: I underestimated the power of a Ghost team!. . I am ashamed to have lost to a certain Deleted person. .It happens, bro. No biggie. Ghost teams tend to be banana peels sometimes, more than teams being managed actively. In other news, I hope to get one over Route Clearance next week, as in the case of the Disvirginators, even though these past couple of weeks haven't been good in the NL leagues. |
The week didn't quite turn out as I expected. Seemed like everyone and their dog gave the armband to Suarez. ![]() |
If you don't have Suarez, you don miss plenty. This is certainly my best captain pick of the season, probably the best since I have been playing fantasy football. Ha! I can't shout. ![]() |
