Readers beware. The summarized drama is filled with graphic descriptions of men's buttholes and feces, and the linked drama has images. Such is the untold chaos that exists at the end of the manscent fetish and the beginning of scat.
https://www.justusboys.com/forum/threads/124255-MERGED-All-things-Scat
So where to even fucking begin? I don't know, and any text I so dare to think might capture its essence is a deluded simplification of the pure shit chaos that is this thread. There is no beginning. There is no end. There are merely farts, shit, skid marks, manly smelling buttholes, and the unknowable erotic distinction between them.
I suppose it all starts with the JustUsBoys.com, The Original Gay Porn Community, and its mod team, coming to the touching realization they need to do something about scat posts. Their solution, apparently, was to merge all scat threads into one giant megathread / containment zone. This, however, did not bode well for the musky butthole sniffers, who are absolutely NOT INTO SCAT.
Observe the visable discomfort of Musky Butthole connoisseur saymyname, when confronted with his new scat acquaintances.

Shitstaine69 said
Yup, sex and shit go together!

saymyname said
Totally disagree. I draw the line between sweat/musk/funk and outright shit.

newbie_69 said
try drawing (the line between) vanilla n kinky too ;)

saymyname said
This thread isn't about scat. That doesn't make this thread vanilla. What the majority of people in here are talking about is still kinky. But you scat people can make your own thread.

shitstaine69 said
ok but if not for the scat the smell would be too bland shit and sweat mix and air the the smell we want

saymyname had no response to this and I truly feel lost without him.
Fortunately, PocketAdonis is there with saymyname, but jessicahurley20 has a different opinion:

PocketAdonis said
I love smelling a guy's butt when it's not exactly chlorox-clean, but not visibly dirty - just that nice masculine butt smell. But I've cum across some pix online of guys with dirty buttholes, and it's a big turn on. I (probably) wouldn't lick these guys' butts, but I like looking at them. William Higgins especially seems to get a lot of these backwoods Czech boys who are too dumb to wipe before spreading their butt cheeks for the camera. I have quite a collection now, wondering if anybody else likes these:

saymyname said
Hmm. I agree with Pocket Adonis' last post. Visually, the pics kind of gross me out. If I can actually SEE something, like in the pics, that's taking it a bit too far. But I like it when I'm rimming a guy and I can smell his natural smells. As long as it wasn't 5 minutes ago... I like it somewhere inbetween funky and clean. If it's too clean, the act of rimming or even being around there feels sterile and censored. I don't want to see shit like in those pics, but I like it when I can smell a little muskyness. That's really hot. I love just smelling a guys asshole through his briefs too.

jessicahurley20 said
this nasty

paulstud interjects with an olive branch. Scat and dirty buttholes are gross and he never wants to see it or interact with it, but watching a guy poop is hot.

paulstud said

I agree, Tyler, about the eating, licking, smearing, etc. That's the trouble with those sites. Just watching guys on the toilet is different -- and hot.

RationalLunacy, the oldest Pokemon Go player in Pennsylvania, whose name is pronounced as DUMP T'RUMP, wishes to inform you all:

Now this is a poop thread!

And finally, GoldenShowerGuy teaches us that India's caste system is absolutely fucked up.

GoldenShowerGuy said
On the subject of scat & pissing, the gym in my high school was in the basement and the water from restroom and showers drained into a deep sump that was automatically pumped out when the water got about 3 feet deep.
One time, I stripped naked and climbed down in the pool. It was pretty hot sitting chin deep in all that filthy water with a few turds floating around. BTW, freshly dropped turds in water don't stink like sewage and there was a hose to rinse off all the crud after I climbed out.
Interestingly, in India, they have a lot of naked waste water divers who work in filth. Go to YouTubeDotCom and search for "Probably the dirtiest job in the world". The second or third result shows a couple of Indian guys working butt naked cleaning out cesspool and the photo in this post is another one from India.
It's pretty hazardous to actually do something like that, but this video is a turn on.

The full thread has more diamonds in the rough, but fuck and I mean holy fuck is it rough.

Every year I forget my friend's Birthdays. Not just one friend all my friends. Since I don't use any social media it's really hard for me to remember my friends birthdays.
I have no facebook to notify me about my friends birthday. Also no whatsapp so I can see status of my friends putting party pictures or others birthday wishes.
I never wish people on festivals too and we have so many festivals here in India.
But then I got this idea -
I also have a Video explanation or you can read text.
Script - https://pastebin.com/HZrUYynw

Step 1 -

First my college group is on telegram so almost all my friends use telegram. So by using Telethon library I create a simple tgsend python script to send messages on telegram from my account by using terminal.
You need to get your telegram API ID and API HASH from telegram website but it's really easy. Not like Google API.

tgsend username "Sending Happy Birthday using Username" tgsend +00123456789 "Sending Happy Birthday using Phone number"

Step 2 -

After this I created a csv file which contain my friends - name, contact number, birthday. My list is huge because I included almost everyone I know - old friends, new friends, all classmates, people I see daily.
File is something like this -

$ cat contacts.csv Jimmy, +1234567890, 02-May Emma watson, +1231231234, 09-Jan Hannah Montana, +1233123123, 21-Sep ...

Step 3 -

We can use simple grep magic to know who is having birthday today.

grep $(date '+%d-%B') contacts.csv

Here by using date command we can print today's date in exact format we have in contact.csv
Now to get more information we can use Simple cut command.
For example -

name=$(grep $(date '+%d-%B') contacts.csv | cut -d, -f1) # for name phone=$(grep $(date '+%d-%B') contacts.csv | cut -d, -f2) # for contact number

We can also use awk '{print $1}' to just get first name.

Step 4 -

Now we Generate message. I am generating a very simple happy birthday message.

msg="Haaappppy Birthday ${name} .. Many Many happy returns of the day."

But you guys can go creative and make list of variety of messages and use shuf to get a random message string. Also It's good if you add name in your messages.
In last

tgsend $phone "$msg"

Step 5 -

Create a cronjob at random time in mid night .. don't set this to exact 00:00 (24 hours format) otherwise this will look fishy. Also run this on your VPS server or somewhere online. like PythonAnywhere. You can also create a log file for yourself. If you want.

Conclusion -

This idea was very simple but it changed my life. Now I wish all my friends on their birthday automatically and when they reply Thank you. At that time I realize ohh.. She is having birthday today and this way I don't have to worry about forgetting birthdays.
Also I use this to wish people on festivals .. Now I am just doing it with telegram but you guys can find some whatsapp libraries written in javascript. I know there are some. Also There is a way of sending messages from phone numbers too.
I will highly recommend doing this .. You can save so much time of sending these stupid messages to people you don't really care about.
I know this is Autism at its peak. But I am happy like this.

World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen will be out for revenge against Champions Chess Tour leader Wesley So when the first Major of the 2021 Champions Chess Tour kicks off on December 26th. The 12-player tournament runs until January 3rd and has a $200,000 prize fund, with the winner picking up $60,000 and a guaranteed place in the grand final next September. Airthings, who produce world-leading radon and indoor air quality monitors, is partnering with the Tour and will measure the air quality in the players’ homes as they play.
The Champions Chess Tour will, for the first time in history, determine the world’s best chess player over a full competitive season of online chess. Beginning in November 2020, the Champions Chess Tour will feature monthly tournaments culminating in a final tournament in September 2021. The best chess players in the world will compete in a total of ten tournaments of rapid chess.

Participants
The lineup includes the eight players who qualified as the top 8 on the Champions Chess Tour after the first event, the Skilling Open, which was won by Wesley So after a thrilling final victory over Magnus Carlsen. Those players are joined by Spanish Champion David Anton, who was voted back into the Airthings Masters despite finishing outside the qualifying places, and Russian 3-time World Blitz Champion Alexander Grischuk, who won the second public vote among Chess24 premium members.
They’re also joined by two wild cards, Russia’s Daniil Dubov, who was the only player other than Magnus to win an event on the Magnus Carlsen Chess Tour, and India’s Pentala Harikrishna, who has been ranked as high as world no. 10.

EDIT: RT released a subbed version of the full interview.
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZX4Lt1IpZsU)

Khabib did a press conference where he answered questions about going 30-0, Tony fight, Conor rematch, his meeting with Dana, his recent acquisition of the Eagle Fighting Championship, etc.
Below is a summarized account.

About EFC
- Khabib bought and renamed GFC promotion to EFC
- Majority owner and wants to become 100% owner
- Got TV deal with Match TV (the BT Sport of Russia) and sponsorship deals including Kazakhstan and UAE TV.
- Got big plans and wants to make promotion one of the best in the world
- Gonna make investment on new generation and young fighters
- Difference between GFC and EFC is when it comes to fighter's contracts
- Khabib gonna be involved in recruitment and scouting of talent
- Will not compete vs MMA Global. MMA Global is for US market. EFC doesn't have plans for US market. Also MMA Global, gonna be streaming online.
- GFC champions gonna automatically become Champs in new league, only new belt design
- Before in GFC, best didn't fight the best. Khabib will strip people who refuse to defend the belt. Gonna make it fair. Gonna give people who deserve the title shot.
- Khabib not gonna treat people different depending on favoritism
- EFC have no goal to make money at the moment. Goal for now is not to lose money.
- Plans to expand to India, Middle East and former USSR countries in future.

About Dana White talks
- Want to make a contract between UFC-fightpass and EFC
- Wanted to make M-1 type of deal to get best fighters to UFC. But will make a deal so that fighters must have a certain number of defenses before coming over to UFC.
- Also want to make a deal that EFC are going to manage the fighter in UFC instead of agent
- Don't want to compete with UFC, but to cooperate and manage fighters who succeed in UFC
- Khabib hasn't met Dana yet. Gonna meet Dana 23 January when Umar and Tagir will fight.
- He will probably offer money. Can't offer good opponent, no one left to fight.
- Conor vs Poirier? I choked both, so what?
- It's only about money, it doesn't interest him from competitive standpoint.
- There's an Avar saying, that the stallion does not compete against donkeys.
- If they offer me a 100 million, then I'll have a problem in front of me (smirk)
- No sporting interest in that fight.
- Several of my guys gonna fight in that tournament, potentially Khabib can meet Conor there. But Khabib says that whatever happens happens.

Middle-East Plans
- Gonna open Khabib gym
- Gonna be pro gym and raise pro fighters but also commercial project
- Gonna be a big project one of the main centers for Khabib's gyms.
- Gonna have gyms in Abu-Dhabi, Dubai, Malaysia, Indonesia, former CIS. Khabib gonna visit and have masterclasses.
- Gonna co-promote with UAE warriors promotion and EFC- First tournament fight card on January 16th.

About title - why Khabib doesn't let go of the title - Can he return?
- Let me enjoy the belt, why you want to strip me? (joking)
- Thinks Dana will strip him after they speak in January.
- Khabib doesn't have plan to return, wants to focus on more serious business.
- Thinks when you say you quit, then you quit. But never say never, you can reevaluate these thing later.- Very few people knew about my retirement.
- Except for money, big challenge might make me return. I still want to fight, when I visit tournaments I get urge to fight.
- Khabib keeps training just like before. Staying in shape. Doing to relieve stress and because he enjoys it. After Gaethje fight didn't train for 2 days.
- USADA will keep testing Khabib for 6 months after Gaethje fight.
About Makhachev- Makhachev just need to be active and fight.- Needs to not think about title, but just stay active and take fights now.
About Tony Ferguson- If Tony wins, we'll see.- Let him win first, his last fight he was destroyed by Gaethje- I lost interest after Gaethje fight.- Let him win first.

LW main title contender except Islam
- Poirier, lost to me, but had good performance before me and after me. He has a little higher chance than everyone else.
- Chandler left best years in Bellator. Many wars and took lot of damage. Got KOd by 145-er 2 fights ago, don't think he has a good future in this division.
About Conor- Doesn't think Conor gonna provoke him, since he has his fight with Poirier to worry about- Thought Conor was gonna be tougher mentally in their fight, but understood he broke him when he said "It's just business".
- It's like a son getting a beating from his father and tries to calm him down with excuses so the father won't beat him so hard.

Full Interview in Russian: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ze-SaTd7RXQ)
Translation credit: ( shoorik1987)

My takeaways:
About EFC
Khabib had a very difficult time getting into the UFC, since Russian promos and management companies often make the process untenable. Fedor is a notable case where the UFC couldn't get a deal done. And Khabib himself had to fight 7 times in 2011 just to run out his contract, and even then the promo filed lawsuits to prevent him from going to the UFC.
Khabib wants to set up a reliable pipeline to get Russian fighters into the UFC without dealing with corrupt managers/agents.
Khabib's also still salty about Dana sending him a fake contract for UFC 205, and treating Conor like a favored nephew. Hence his statement about "not going to play favorites".
Also salty about Conor having a UFC Belt for 3 years (1FW+2LW) with zero defenses. Hence his policy of stripping Champs who refuse to defend their belt.
About Khabib
IMO, Khabib is serious about the retirement, and said that he would only fight with his mother's permission. Since it took 3 days for Khabib to convince his mum to be okay with the already booked Gaethje fight, it would take something extraordinary for Khabib to be able to win an argument with his mum. That would either be continuing Father Plan (Ferguson fight) or enough money to bring forth lasting improvements to Dagestan.
Since rematching PoirieMcGregor does nothing for his legacy, it would simply be a money fight for him. Dana would need to offer an outrageous amount, for Khabib to even consider it. He knows Dana hates paying fighters more money, so is fairly certain that Dana will finally accept his retirement after their meeting.
But in the 1% chance that Dana agrees to shell out the cash, Khabib is still training and keeping tiramisu consumption to a moderate level. Also explains why he's still in the USADA pool.
Khabib thinks Tony is no longer elite after the Gaethje fight. So he's waiting to see if Tony still can pull out a vintage Cucuy performance in his next fight. Unlike PoirieMcGregor, Ferguson will actually add to his legacy, so I'm stoked to see what Khabib does if Tony dismantles Oliveira.
Khabib also thinks Poirier is the best LW in a post-Khabib UFC. No idea why he rates Dustin so highly.

One day one of my female friend got angry with me and stopped talking to me because I forgot her birthday and she never forget my birthday. So I was feeling very bad.
and this is not the first time. This happen every year. Not just with one friend with all my friends. Since I don't use any social media it's really hard for me to remember my friends birthdays.
I have no facebook to notify me about my friends birthday. Also no whatsapp so I can see status of my friends putting party pictures or others birthday wishes.
I never wish people on festivals too and we have so many festivals here in India. This way I am getting out of the group they start forgetting me to inviting in parties etc.
So all of this made me very sad.
But then I got this idea -
I also have a Video explanation or you can read text.

tgsend username "Sending Happy Birthday using Username" tgsend +00123456789 "Sending Happy Birthday using Phone number"

Rant -

I hate this society .. I don't understand sending meaningless strings on birthdays/festivals while not talking entire year. WHY DO PEOPLE TEXT? Because they ignore real conversation face to face of phone. But I am glad I have my computer to do this for me.
I know this is Autism at its peak. But I am happy like this.

Rant -

This post is a response to farhaniqbal1 (Farhan Iqbal) Sahib's response comment on a previous post of mine. It's Part 3 of my posts on the topic. You can also read posts for Part 1 and Part 2.
Normally, I would reply inline on that last post, but due to the length of my response, I have elected to place my response as a post on its own. It's also a good opportunity for me to write at more length on some of these topics.

An Imperative to Engagement?

Hello again Farhan Sahib. In your latest reply, you opened with:

Hello again Sohail. First of all, I'm sorry you felt hurt. That was not my intention nor the intention of my friend, Shahrukh Abid. When you say it was done "blatantly" I take issue with that.

Further down, you quoted this from my earlier reply to you:

As for the "lost your cool" bit, I do find that statement and the "you seem angry" statement you made on Reddit highly condescending, in addition to being inaccurate. It's the disappointment I have in you and the integrity with which imams of the Jama'at are now lacking in how they mischaracterize their critics.

I appreciate that you followed up with the statement and gracious apology, which was very kind of you:

It appears I misunderstood you. I'm sorry about that. That was not my intention.

However, do you see how your latest opening repeats the same pattern? You start off with the assumption that I'm "hurt":

First of all, I'm sorry you felt hurt.

Can you point me to where I've expressed being "hurt" by what I am relaying as mischaracterizations? Perhaps you're inferring this because I'm following up on this issue. I actually find it important (useful) to establish a level dialogue before tackling content. Otherwise, we're often not hearing one another.
It seems to me, however, that officials of the Jama'at have some kind of ideological imperative to characterize those who disagree as "hurt", "angry", or "losing their cool". For the record, I'm simply trying to foster an environment of dialogue and exploration for all that doesn't involve straw men or mischaracterizations of each other's work or positions.
While I'm human too, I generally don't take this stuff personally. If anything, as I've relayed, I'm just dismayed because I expected more from trained missionaries of the Jama'at. It is with Ahmadiyya Islamic personalities that I'm generally encouraged regarding the potential for dialogue with ex-Muslims like me, and with ex-Muslims in general. I'd like there to be some viable Islamic apologists left in the eco-system of religious dialogue.
Regardless, I do appreciate you expressing that nonetheless, this wasn't your intention.

Disagreements on Mischaracterization

Regarding:

When you say it was done "blatantly" I take issue with that.

I use the word blatantly because, from my perspective, the mischaracterization is so off the mark. I don't think many sincere, believing Ahmadi Muslims who've carefully read my book from 1998 in full and who watched my 2019 Coming Out video in full would find the synopsis by your colleague of "I hate the culture" as representative of those two pieces of content.
I appreciate that, once again, we're going to have different opinions on this.
Regarding:

If you believe that those people who review your material would find my rebuttals "less compelling", that is your opinion and you are entitled to it.

Yes. As with many points raised in your latest response, I agree that we'll see things differently on many of these topics.
Similarly, as you state:

In terms of opinions, people have appreciated my work greatly and feel that it fully refutes your arguments. It is up to you to disagree with that.

I'm sure there are people who appreciate your work greatly. I do believe we can easily please audiences living in echo chambers—this applies to both of us. The presence of such people on either side of the argument doesn't really adjudicate anything.
Some people who are questioning but who already believe will look to anything to help them retain the comforting belief with which they grew up. Likewise, people can be motivated to agree with that which confirms their doubts or their disbelief.
The real metric of interest for us both is gleaned from those who change positions: in which direction are more of them moving?
Note that it's typically a gradual process, not a single moment where one changes their own beliefs.

On Methodology and Pointing out Mistakes

In regards to my asking for examples where you allege I have made "blatantly inaccurate" statements regarding Prophet Muhammad, Prophet Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, etc., you mentioned that it has "been pointed out to me" before.
In response, I had stated:

Why don't you point out an example of such a "blatantly inaccurate" statement I have made that needed correction? My statements and positions may be counter to what you believe to be true, but are you going to tell me there are objective facts I got wrong and ignored? Most of my criticisms come with citing embarrassing hadith or quotes from your own religious texts.

To which you've responded:

Actually, I won't be doing that because I don't like this form of debating. "You have lied!", "You are a liar" - is not my form of apologetics. I like to have healthy conversations and dialogue. I try not to get emotional (the best I can) and I don't like to find ways to insult people. Where I found problems in your methodology and in some cases "objective facts" that you got wrong in your argumentation, I did point it out in the book.

I am not asking for us to sling "you're a liar" accusations at each other. I don't think you pointing out an example here would do that. I mean, if you claim to do this in your book (point out something I objective got wrong and didn't correct when it was pointed out to me), why not give us one example here where I can address it more directly?
I'm going to make a prediction here about what you have in your book:

What you think is an "objective fact" I got "wrong" is going to be a subjective opinion of yours on a point of theology, philosophy, or history where there exists differences of opinion beyond just you and I.

This isn't going to be that different than two interlocutors in a debate saying, "My opponent is wrong" about each other's positions.

On Critiquing Theology and The Morality Argument

In an earlier reply, I had stated:

The truth is, I am critiquing the theology using scripture, whether you like the arguments or not. Whether they convince you or not.

I didn't think that would be too controversial for you. Just as you can use arguments about theology and I may, and often do, find them unsatisfactory and not very convincing.
You stated:

I beg to differ. I don't think you understand the scriptures very well.

I don't subscribe to your understanding and interpretation of the scriptures. However, many orthodox Muslims today who are native Arabic speakers would claim you don't understand Islamic scriptures very well either, and that you and the Jama'at are sugar coating Islamic scriptures with mental gymnastics (the 2:1 female to male witness ratio, a tribe of humans called ants, etc.). Alas, we'll all have our critics who think they understand scripture best.
I do believe that by considering the possibility that the Qur'an is human authored, I can make far better sense of the scripture and its self-serving passages than an apologist for Ahmadiyyat who has to jump through hoops of mental gymnastics to claim what people took literally in the early days of Islam is somehow not what Allah "meant" all along.
Regarding the short twitter thread I reminded you of, where I outline a simple response regarding the morality debate, you responded with:

This is the utilitarian argument that Richard Dawkins also makes in his book, The God Delusion. I have responded to this argument multiple times, and more thoroughly, in the book.

It's been a while since I've read The God Delusion, however, I actually believe it's the case which Sam Harris has made as the entire focus of his book, The Moral Landscape, which I find far more compelling than religious morality.
I do look forward to seeing if you've expanded on this in your book as you indicate. Your earlier response video on the topic was, in my estimation, quite simplistic and presented a straw man for where you feel utilitarianism as a foundation, would fail. I'm saving the details of my argument for a response article to your article, but suffice it to say that if you had any meaningful training at Jamia on philosophy, you would have attempted to answer a steel man presentation of non-religious morality instead of the straw man that you did. You wouldn't need for me to take up writing a response article to point out the basic gaps in your case.
Utilitarianism is yes, a great starter foundation. As humans, we layer in other concepts to cover the situations where higher order principles would be violated if we followed a strictly reductionist utilitarian approach in all matters. I'll expand on this in my response article on morality.
In employing divine command theory, your morality informs us, however, that if God tells a believer to kill their child, the believer should be ready to do it. Hey, whatever your deity wants is automatically "justice" because he said so, right? A willingness to follow through with such a murder is a moral act on your moral framework. We only need to look at the story of Abraham to know this is true.
From my perspective, this is the depravity of religious morality. It's not only rooted in mythology and fable, it can be dangerous and arbitrary.

Sharing Your Book, The Folly of Atheism

You mentioned:

A PDF of the book will eventually be available in the not so distant future, Insha Allah. Meanwhile, you can choose to buy a copy on www.BooksonIslam.org. The first 5 people who reach out to me via Redditt (and are ex-Ahmadis) I will arrange for them to receive a free copy out of my personal expense. I don't get paid for any of these books. I write them for free. And would be happy to pay for anyone to read it who is sincerely interested, even to refute it.

I realize you don't get paid with book royalties, but I do understand it's your full time job to work on projects for the Jama'at. I do think most people here understand that this is part of your role as a missionary.
As for your offer, since most non-believers in the Jama'at still interested in apologetics and counter-apologetics are closeted, you're unlikely to be contacted with a shipping address. However, for folks local to Toronto, I've mentioned to our mutual friend that I don't mind being the go-between.
I'm asking people privately who may want a copy to let me know, so that I may be a physical go-between for anyone interested. I'm encouraging everyone else not closeted and who isn't local to Toronto, to reach out to you directly with a mailing address for you to send a physical copy to.
I am also looking to ensure people who ask for a copy are sincere in wanting to give it a full read, since you are graciously offering to provide complimentary copies.
I will always encourage people read both sides of the argument from the source, instead of one side "presenting" the other side of the argument, as is the Jama'at's typical MO.
Now, regarding your book The Folly of Atheism, I do anticipate that when it's available for free on alislam.org you'll get better engagement from former Ahmadi Muslims.

Encouraging People to Read Arguments from the Source

In response to this question of mine:

Tell me, do you even encourage your readers to read my book in full to get the context of my argument, and not just your re-framing of what you think the argument is?

I found your response quite revealing:

As far as I could, I haven't reframed any of your arguments in your book. I have even quoted you directly where I thought necessary. As far as encouraging members to read your book, I will not be doing that. Not because I'm afraid of your arguments. It's because I encourage members to read the books of the Promised Messiah (as) where there is spiritual insight and spiritual upliftment.

You haven't reframed any of my arguments, you say. And where you "thought necessary", you even did me the gracious favour of quoting me directly!
Through simple deduction, we can conclude that there are places where you didn't think it necessary, and so haven't quoted my argument in responding to me. I mean, why even bother, when you can represent my argument so much better than I can? I mean, what could possibly be suspect about that?
This is the difference between you and I, and more broadly, apologetics and counter-apologetics in the Ahmadiyya apologetics scene today.
When you look at my book, even back in 1998 and in my blog articles more recently, you'll see me providing references to my sources; Jama'at as well as non-Jama'at. It's basic writing etiquette. If one wants to be taken seriously, they cite their publicly available sources.
I believe people can make the most informed and honest assessment of the arguments by reading the original work and then the criticism of it.
Contrast this with Jama'at literature that claims to address my work. The material is almost always stingy on references. Conversely, I make an effort to reference every quote and every occurrence of it, and where there's a hyperlink available, I include that too.
You can characterize it as "spiritual insight" for the believing flock, but to me, and I'm sure to others, it seems like a tactic rooted in fear and insecurity: you need people to read your framing of my arguments, lest they read it as I have presented it and not how you want them to see it.
Think about it: by not encouraging your readers to read both our works in full from the source, you're asking readers to trust your subjective and biased take on my content. You're asking them to trust you that you've accurately represented the crux of my argument, and not omitted anything of significance from my argument.
I, on the other hand, would never ask readers of my material to be so credulous. I want them to verify, and hold up the original presentations side by side in full, to decide for themselves.
I have never suggested you censored or forbid anyone from consuming my material or talking to me, but then you continue with this straw man:

Having said that, if anyone wants to read your book or your online posts, I have never stopped them. I have never actively censored any Ahmadi from reaching out to you. One of my close friends is in touch with you and you can ask him: Have I ever asked him to stop contacting you?

I've never argued that you've "stopped" people or "actively censored" them from reading my work or reaching out to me.
The point I'm making is that in the spirit of fairness and objectivity, the right thing to do is to have confidence enough in your work to openly encourage people to read both sides from their respective sources, and in full. This, however, is what you're apparently unwilling or unable to do.
Further, having one of your friends who is secure in their faith reach out to me as a friendly gesture is not something I'd consider as you being vulnerable with your flock, as seems to be the connotation with which your example is framed.
I think at a human level, we must all stay connected socially and on friendly terms with those with whom we will often disagree, as regards religion.
Our friends and family are shared. We can maintain a decency and dignity in our interactions and relationships, despite our spirited theological differences. We (the broader we) have too many shared life events to be a part of—births, marriages, funerals, and the like—to be cut off from one another over religion.
I do hope that it's a given with you, as it is for me, that asking people to refrain from staying connected or reaching out to people like either of us, is a manoeuvre that both of us would completely take off the table. It should go without saying that social censorship of that sort would just sour the waters for everyone.

On Culture

Regarding culture, I actually agree with you here:

In some cases, religion and culture are different. In other cases, they are aligned. There is nuance.

I often hear the religious attempt to defend their religion separating the two, and that's why I asked the rhetorical question. As you'll recall in my book from 1998, I posit that some religions like Islam can and do strongly influence culture.
I had remarked:

At the end of my book I comment on the Jama'at and community, but it doesn't make one hate the culture. It conveys the deep seated problems created by the religion, which result in the unfortunate pain, grief, and disillusionment for many.

Now this next statement of yours in response, I did find really grasping to try to defend your colleague's essentialization of my work as, "I hate the culture":

So you do admit that you critiqued the culture. Right Sohail sahib?

Actually, I critique the culture in my book far less than it seems you do in your new book (i.e. how much you reference culture), judging by your introductory podcast listing out the topics covered and the motivations for writing.
I have 11 issues I raise in my book:

Issue 1: Two female witnesses for one male witness
Issue 2: Polygamy and slave wives
Issue 3: Women as deficient, as gifts and as objects acted upon by men
Issue 4: The right of the husband to beat his wife
Issue 5: The Qur’anic inheritance ratio
Issue 6: The difference in divorce protocol
Issue 7: The marriage of Hazrat Aisha and precedent
Issue 8: The Jahilia period and change—then and now
Issue 9: Administrative institutions and the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at
Issue 10: Youth and the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at
Issue 11: Marriage and administrative policy: a double standard

I'd say the last three deal with aspects of culture, but even then, they are primarily rooted in administrative policies of the Jama'at which themselves are rooted in theology, as covered in many of the earlier chapters.
In Issue 8, I explore the rights and role of women contrasting Jama'at literature with that written by academics like Professor Leila Ahmed.
I don't deny that I cover aspects of the Jama'at's culture in my book and even less so in my coming out video. What I take issue with is Shahrukh Rizwan Abid's essentialization of this as, "I hate the culture".

Turning the Tide and a Tajneed Challenge for You

What will be interesting to observe are those who are no longer Muslims buying into the arguments for Islam/Ahmadiyyat, as well as how many people born into Ahmadiyyat move away from it, whether officially or as "ghost" tajneed members fading out of Jama'at (rather than formally resigning, since few people do given the social repercussions).
Regarding my statement that people are increasingly moving away from Ahmadiyyat and Islam generally, you remarked:

You have tried to inflate your numbers in the past, and here you are doing it again. There is no evidence of this whatsoever.

I don't think you realized the irony in that statement when you wrote it. You represent the Jama'at that once claimed 200 million adherents worldwide including one year alone in which 40 millions converts allegedly joined from India!
In the countries where you have individualized tajneed records, and if you shared the tally of all of these, regardless of whether they pay chanda or not, or are man, woman, or child, I seriously doubt that your worldwide number would even cross the 2 million mark. And this is after 100+ years of the movement existing; with high birth rates for most of this period too.
It's really rich hearing you talking about an "inflation of numbers". Tell me, have you ever written or talked about the fiasco and scandal of the ridiculous ba'ait numbers published and enthusiastically announced by your fourth khalifa?
Now, as for my claims, can you point me to a statement where I quantitatively "inflate" the numbers of people leaving Islam generally or Ahmadiyyat specifically? Perhaps you make an attempt to address that point head on in your book?
It's obvious from the sermons given by mainstream Islamic preachers today that Muslim youth in the West are leaving Islam in significant numbers.
Given the many reasons Muslims including Ahmadis are less likely to make leaving official with a resignation letter sent to their National Amir, I'm unfortunately not going to have statistics for you on Ahmadi Muslims who no longer believe.
I can, however, extrapolate from gauging the decline in religiosity of people I've known in the Community for over 30 years. This includes some people who were once in very senior roles. The amount of questioning is proportionately far higher than what I saw around me when I was a teenager. And it's not just me. I'm privy to these stories from all over the world, well beyond this subreddit. And those people relay the same thing taking place in their circles.
Given that you're speaking from the Jama'at that once boasted 200 million adherents and was too embarrassed to ever issue a formal public correction because it would shake the faith of many of your members, I do think your assessments are going to lack credibility here. But there's hope yet. You can address how the Jama'at is thriving by providing non-birth tajneed growth in countries that maintain computerized membership lists. I'll let you start with Canada, the US, and the UK to get the ball rolling.
You can make it happen, Farhan Sahib! Release the numbers!
Certainly, we'll see the religious continue to have children outpacing the replacement rate, and with ambiguous membership figures, the Jama'at can certainly continue the obscurant "tens of millions" line for at least another couple of generations.
Here's a friendly challenge for you—and please, no death prophecies in response as your prophet was quick to issue—there are too many nut jobs out there who will take it upon themselves to "fulfill" the prophecy. This is a friendly challenge from me.
The challenge is simply this, using our local country of Canada as a start:

Part 1: Tracking paying members over a 30 year span

Tell me what percentage of people who were on the tajneed in 1990 paying chanda aam have paid chanda aam in 2020.
We can and should of course, remove people who have died or moved out of the country in that period.
I know how modern the Jama'at's membership system has been since the late 1980s with the AS/400 system in the basement of Bait-ul-Islam, so this data has been captured for a long time.

Part 2: Active Converts who joined prior to 2000

Here's another aspect of the challenge for you:
In the same 1990 to 2020 data set, let us know how many converts who joined between 1990 and 1999 are still active members of the Jama'at today. I don't expect them to have paid chanda when they first converted, but 20+ years on, if they're not paying chanda members, I suspect their conversion didn't last.

Part 3: New Converts in Last 5 Years

Tell us how many new converts the Jama'at in Canada has received in each of the last five years:

2020
2019
2018
2017
2016

Part 4: Converts who haven't married an Ahmadi Muslim

Tell us how many converts to Ahmadiyya Islam joined in Canada in 2018 who have not (yet) married a born-Ahmadi Muslim. You and I both know that a large proportion of men who call up the mosque to convert are doing it to appease the family of an Ahmadi Muslim woman whom they love and wish to marry. However, I'd like you to share the convert count of those who do it for the religion itself, without other mitigating factors.
In fact, a break down of this number from 2018 (those who are single converts vs. those who are recently married) will be quite revealing, I'm sure.

Part 5: Bonus Round — USA and UK Jama'ats

Repeat the same exercise in parts 1 through 4, but for the USA and UK Jama'ats, since they have computerized tajneed and chanda records too.

Critics are Not Your "Enemies"

On who is turning the tide, I can't speak for Africa, but for the West, I'm quite confident people are questioning and increasingly finding the apologetic answers to be unsatisfactory to retain their devotion to the faith. The very fact that the tagline for your Conviction Project podcast is, "Leaving you with no doubts about Islam" is to me, evidence of that very necessary damage control in progress.
You state:

I'm still waiting to see this "tide" of people that you have been talking about for the last 2-3 years. There is no evidence of this I have seen, and I regularly interact with a large number of membership in the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. I'm still waiting for this tide?

Why would the people you interact with be representative? People who find religion suspect are often going to do their own research. They're not going to "check in" with you.
Is it not true that in many parts of Canada, the USA, and the UK, that often as little as 20% of the tajneed comes out to a monthly meeting or an Ijtema? What if a large bulk of that 80% whom you don't normally see have gone from nominally believing Ahmadi Muslims to more consciously disengaging ones? How would you even know?
Regarding the landscape of people doubting, you state in your closer:

But let me be clear: You will not be able to harm the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at in any way whatsoever.

I don't have to try to do anything here. Your Jama'at does that all on their own, going from an alleged 81 million converts in 2001 (see very last page) to now a figure of 205k in 2019.
That said, I do think you're still coming from a mindset of "enemies of Islam" and pitched battles between claimants to divine office. That's not what this is.
I'm just a regular guy pointing out what I see, and commenting on the false bill of goods, as I see it, which I've been sold by accident of birth. I'm certainly not your enemy and I think by virtue of being a community like other communities, there are a lot of good things Jama'at Ahmadiyya does, including things which I admire.
I also believe that people empowered with good arguments about theology to reflect upon, will leave all on their own. It'll be peaceful, and increasingly, it is my hope, dissent will be normalized so that people are truly free to choose their religion without social boycott and the implicit and unconscious emotional manipulation of their wailing grandmothers seeded by fear tactics rooted in the Jama'at's theology, administration, and ethos.
I don't expect people to remember me in 200 years (or even in 20 years, for that matter). I'm not creating a new religious movement with my counter-apologetics.
It's rare that critics are remembered. Rather, their arguments live on, and every generation sees a new wave of critics take up the mantle.
Many arguments have been around for a long time, as have their counters, and the counters to the counters. What's unique today is that disbelievers could rarely reach a wider audience. Access to the flock has always been protected by gatekeepers. But today, this is changing.
We can also more easily cross reference contradictory scriptures, statements, and speeches—all of which require a mess of apologetics to try to reconcile. At the scale of what's possible, that's relatively new in history too.
Activists like me speak up because we're quite tired of being gaslit regarding our observations on why the religion we were been born into just doesn't hold up to scrutiny.
Most of us wouldn't even bother if we didn't find NRMs to be so emotionally abusive when people contemplate living authentically and actually voicing this to the believers around them.

May You Be Guided to the Right Path

As for:

I pray that Allah guides you to the right path. Ameen.

I appreciate the sentiment, but I want you to consider how such closing statements come across as passive-aggressive. If you want something more neutral and which has a chance of coming off as sincere, try something like, "I hope we both keep an open mind and converge on what is true."
Until then, I'll share my own "counter-rejoinder" as an example so that you can understand the connotation which accompanies the closer you and many of your colleagues often use. Here it is:

I hope that you're able to reason yourself out of your childhood indoctrination, and also the indoctrination you have received at Jamia Ahmadiyya. I know it's difficult and I don't believe most Jamia students have other educational qualifications to fallback on should they realize they've made a mistake in their choice of vocation.
Should you or other missionaries in the Jama'at ever require assistance upon leaving Islam to transition out of your jobs as murabbis, please keep in mind resources like The Clergy Project. Cheers.

UPDATE JAN 16, 2021: Edits made for grammar, fixing broken links, and to correct markdown formatting.

Section 1 - Assets and Debt

Retirement Balance: $43,000. I’ve ebbed and flowed in my contributions because some jobs simply had no retirement savings plan options (or I was woefully uneducated about them—everything I know about money is self-taught from books or the internet after age 22), let alone matching. This current job has been the most generous. My spouse has his own 401(k) at about $25,000 for the same reasons.
Savings Balance: $5,000. We had to use our emergency fund a few times when spouse was out of work in 2018 and again in 2019 with government shutdown. Aaaaaand, we may have to use it now. More on that in a bit.
Checking Balance: $3,000 today. Some bills need to go out. Sometimes we get as low as $300 before payday because I’m chucking it at debt and paid rent.
Credit Card Debt: $17,500 remaining from well over $65,000. A lot of it was spending beyond our means for some years, mostly dining out and two vacations, there’s also some medical bills from a toe injection, MRIs from when we were very underinsured and my spouse got a disc injury, and there’s also two tax return bills in there. We were very aggressively paying it down for a good while.
Student Loan Debt: $12,000 for a BA in Creative Writing. I barely graduated. Earlier this year we paid off my spouse’s, who borrowed far less than I did (same degree, 3 years ahead of me).
Car Loan: $19,000 remaining on a 2015 Persona Prius. I fully admit we got a little screwed on this loan/car purchase and I hate it and want it gone.

Section 2- Income
Income Progression:

In college I was always working about 10 hours a week of work study for $5.15, and then I didn’t want to go home during winters and summers so I found what work I could on campus. Barely saved, I knew nothing about money other than spending it. Oooof.
I graduated in 2003, floated between food service and retail and customer services for 3 years, including a horrendous stint in newspaper advertising. When I started my corporate career, I was an administrative assistant in 2006 making $11.15 an hour in a MCOL town in Illinois for 6 years as the recession stomped any chance of raises.
In 2012, after years of going above and beyond my expected duties, I got promoted and started my project management career in earnest as a scheduling/budget analyst for $45,000.
In 2014 I was training other schedulers enough that I asked to be promoted to mid-level analyst at $55,000 and it was approved.
In 2015 I was regularly sharing work from my team lead, and I asked for another promotion to senior-level analyst. After it was denied (they said I needed my PMP), I was recruited to work for the competition as a scheduleproject coordinator at $70,000.
In 2016 my spouse got laid off from his $45K job at the same. The first job offer in 2 months came from Chicago and then I got the same job in a different team as project coordinators at $60,000 each. Both of us study for and get our PMP designations, which change the game for our job applications.
In 2018 I was recruited by the competition next door for $90,000 as a contractor in a PMO (project management office) team.
Currently: After 18 months I was offered to cross over as an actual employee with PTO again (after years without), and at $110,500 a year plus a bonus based on company performance that was $6,000 last year. I’m not counting the RSUs I also receive since I can’t do anything with them yet but likely I’ll sell them to pay off the debt and boost my retirement.
Main Job Monthly Take Home: $2,750 twice a month after taxes, insurance, retirement, and additional federal withholding (I loathe having a big surprise at tax return time). This is going to change by the time this diary publishes because…
Important Note: Just before I started this diary, my spouse got laid off from his contracting job (details withheld for privacy purposes). He was making $87,000 a year and taking home about $2,280 every other week after insurance, taxes and retirement. He is filing for unemployment while he cashes out 70 hours of unused vacation, and that means either 1 or 2 more paychecks of comparable size. We’d normally chuck those at debt, but we’re going to shore them up to make sure we can still pay bills and rent.

Section 3 - Expenses (monthly unless specified)

Rent: $1,925 for 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, washer and dryer in unit, and a gated parking spot. We have roughly 1,300 square feet in Uptown, which isn’t quite as popular as the others, and therefore a little more affordable.
Utilities: $100 for electric and natural gas since we started working from home. Natural gas is $45 in the summer and will reach at least $180 in the winter due to poor insulation. Internet is $97.85 for 1 GB speed.
Cell Phones: $132, includes our Netflix.
Renters’ Insurance: $20.
Auto Insurance: $167.
Savings: $500 automatically plus little round-offs based on daily transactions.
Subscriptions: Mine: Apple iCloud $0.99, Spotify/Hulu $10.89. Google Drive $50 annually. Spouse’s: Patreon $46, Audible $120 annually. Ours: YNAB $45 annually, Amazon Prime $119 annually.
(Before the layoff we averaged about $200 monthly with all our annual and monthly subscriptions to Spotify/Hulu, Patreon, New York Times, Apple News, YouTube Premium, Audible, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Office 365, Qapital, and YNAB. We share and swap logins for streaming services with some friends and family.)
Debts: Minimum payments come to $1,000. Before the layoff news this month we were throwing about $4,000 each month to aggressively pay down the debts and had paid off 4 credit cards this year.
Pet expenses: $500 average for food, one grooming, preventive medications, and one physical therapy appointment. We’re still figuring out the average monthly cost of his second arthritis medication.
Memberships: $250 average annually for our professional designations. I’m going to ask if my work will cover my costs when it’s time to renew.
Gym: $55 with a locker in my office building. I haven’t been there since March 13 and it’s been on hold.
Mass Transit Pass: $105 for unlimited Ventra card, deducted from my paycheck pre-tax. This is also on hold.

Day 1: (Mon Nov 25)

5:15 a.m. – First alarm goes shhhh. Fifteen minutes later my real alarm goes off. I get up, wrap up warm and coax the dog out of bed to get some relief outdoors and feed him morning kibble and meds. While the Nespresso makes my first cup of coffee, I take him back to bed and he aggressively snuggles my spouse.
By 6 a.m. I’m logged into work and answering email/Skype questions from the European desks. My job is mostly checking for compliance documentation and educating people on required processes.
6:30 a.m. – Spouse’s alarm goes off. I start the drip coffeemaker and shower. Eventually he stops snoozing and goes out to the nearby Jewel for some things our curbside pickup order couldn’t find: garlic, parsley, eggnog, eggs, frozen veg, pork scraps for fried rice, and he gets some more things including gingersnap cookies, doughnuts, some add-an-egg breakfast cups and a freaking ribeye. We have a talk about our future food budget when he gets back, the ribeye and doughnuts (which weren’t even very good?) shouldn’t have happened. $73.31.
7:30 a.m. – While I wait for a Jira extract and Excel macro to do their thing, I browse my go-to job sites and find 5 listings my spouse could apply to and put them on the Kanban board I made in Trello. He’ll log in later and click on the ones he likes and applies. I’ve been doing this every day since we were told of the layoff, but I’ll probably be doing far less of this next week when his work officially ends. It helps keep my anxiety busy.
11 a.m. – Spouse makes some spicy ramen for himself for lunch. I warm up a packet of seasoned rice/quinoa mix and fry an egg over it.
3 p.m. – After some more meetings and mostly a lot of email about the new 2021 changes, I’m done, and start picking up the kitchen and around the house. I find I have little desire to deep clean 9 months into staying at home, but I still try. Mostly that means doing laundry and sweeping.
4:30 p.m. – Spouse logs off from work and applies to a handful of jobs I listed.
6 p.m. – Fuck. The chicken we were going to cook smells … off and nothing’s defrosted. We do find some rice and porkchops that we can thaw for tomorrow, but not right now. We call this hitting the Fuck-It Button and order C’est Bien Thai delivery (lard nar for me, veggie spring rolls to share, and panang for him). It’s …. okay. Not worth a repeat order. Hopefully this is the only time we order delivery this week, it’s one of our biggest habits. $55.
After some TV (including His Dark Materials), I wind down at 9 with my skincare routine and relaxing music and turn in at 10. I am the world’s lightest sleeper, so having a specific routine and a set time to get ready for bed is important to me. And I love sleeping in our comfortable bed.

Total spend:
Food - $128.31
Day 2: (Tues Nov 24)

Morning: Same as before.
11 a.m. – I have a nice quiet morning of mostly email and a few meetings, but nothing annoying (yet). Spouse’s job—the one he’s losing—treats him to lunch in the form of $20 Caviar credit because they can’t bring the whole team together to do a holiday meal. He gets two shakes and a burger from Shake Shack, I pick one, and we ask the person that delivered it for their Venmo info since we couldn’t add tip on the app. $10.
1 p.m. – Sometime after I walk the dog in the rain, I decide to send an email to my boss about the news, because there’s a chance we may have to move to follow the work. An hour later I get a kind reply, but a clarification: I can’t just work from anywhere when offices reopen, I’ll need to be able to work out of some specific company locations. Okay, sure, that can be done. My spouse starts making garlic confit.
5 p.m. – I logged off an hour ago (a bit later than usual but every other week my team meeting runs late), my spouse stayed later for a team meeting, then strains the garlic for storage. It tastes alright but we had it on plain bread, and I feel like it wants toast and salt instead?
6:30 p.m. – Dinner is pork fried rice with some old cooked rice in the fridge. There’s even leftovers to put under an egg for each of us tomorrow. Score. We watch the latest His Dark Materials, then move on to Elf, which we’ve never seen. Eh.
8:12 p.m. – Spouse walks the dog. I clean up the kitchen and wash the large cutting board. After we towel the dog off from his walk (he’s a low-rider corgi, we have lots of old towels for this purpose), I start winding down at 9.

Total spend:
Food - $10.
Day 3 (Wed Nov 25)

5:45 a.m. – Took some effort to get out of bed this morning from a strange dream. But it’s easy to shrug off and I’m logged in by 6:10 a.m. There are some questions on documents from the QA team in India, and I try to answer them but unfortunately, they still need to be sent back to the project team. Ugh. This will impact some month-end metrics.
6:30 a.m. – Ooof. My calendar shows 6 back-to-back meetings in 3.5 hours. I need to shower now or hold my peace until after lunch. I hurry through it and manage to get another hour of email in before the first meeting. Ireland’s connection is crackly but I manage to understand them. The rest are easy.
7:21 a.m. – I do NOT need a fifty-dollar Milk Bar pumpkin dulce de leche cake. Dammit. (I blame the Girls Night In newsletter and their gift idea list.) But fuuuuu it’s 20% off and I’m not done stress-eating. When my spouse wakes up, he showers and heads out for parsley, guess he couldn’t find any yesterday. I ask him to also get a frozen pizza. $7.14.
11:30 a.m. – Last meeting of the day complete, and I inhale my half of the leftover fried rice with a crispy fried egg. It’s the perfect thing to warm up before walking the dog in the cold damp. Because I’ve got the time, I let him take as much time as he wants and sniff around while I multitask and find some more jobs for my spouse to apply to.
12:30 p.m. – I put my headphones on and try to get as much e-mail cleared away as possible.
3 p.m. – Here’s a good stopping point for me. Poof, no more work for 4 days.
4 p.m. – After I pick up around the apartment and start a load of laundry, I download some videos I need to stitch together for a greeting for my hobby group, then make Smitten Kitchen’s baked pumpkin and sour cream puddings. My spouse logs off work and takes the dog to the vet for a growth we found on his leg.
5:45 p.m. – I didn’t get conferenced into the call with the vet, and my spouse ordered a needle biopsy now instead of going straight for scheduling removal and a better biopsy. $285.
7 p.m. – The dog is still hangry when he gets home. We heat up the frozen pizza for dinner while we sift through the freezer for tomorrow’s protein and write up a timeline of what needs to be done when.
8:30 p.m. – I let the dog out for relief, pick up after, and come back in to snuggle on the couch. He’s a little grumpy about the bandage on his leg. We finish watching Elf and then I keep watching West Wing while my spouse starts some games of Among Us with friends. I gently tap him on the shoulder when he gets a little too loud.
11 p.m. – I turn in.

Total spend:
Food - $7.14
Pet - $285
Day 4 (Thu Nov 26 – Thanksgiving)

6:30 a.m. – I get up to take care of the dog and then we come back to bed.
9 a.m. – Oh yes. We usually are in Wisconsin for the holiday with my in-laws, but that’s obviously not happening. I’m sad to not see people (and buy all the cheese and New Glarus) but I also don’t mind being home. We have coffee and the omelet-in-cup things my spouse got 2 days ago. Then I finish a video project and send it out.
10 a.m. – Mise and cooking begin, starting with braising and then chilling the short ribs we found in the freezer. I’m also making the green bean casserole I wanted, and my spouse is making mashed potatoes for a non-dairy friend to come exchange later (friend ordered a dinner for one but it comes with potatoes au gratin, we’re going to switch spuds). I’m glad I made dessert yesterday.
2:30 p.m. – After the gratin arrives and we exchange spuds, we call our friends in Seattle and hang out for a little bit. We’ve had them over for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners in years past and miss cooking for them so damn much, but this is still pleasant.
6:30 p.m. – The timing is almost perfect, and everything’s ready at once. The short ribs are phenomenal. My spouse passes out on the couch afterwards, I walk the dog in the evening and turn in at 10.

Total spend: $0.
Day 5 (Fri Nov 27)

6:30 a.m. – Spouse’s alarm goes off. He’s working today (his last day of work), I’m technically not but I do have a meeting I need to attend at 8. I get to snooze a little even if the dog is mildly grumpy about ‘late’ breakfast and I am still in my robe with coffee in hand when the meeting happens.
7:30 a.m. - I had such plans to raid some online Black Friday sales and stock up on things or upgrade some staples. But now I’ll just enjoy window shopping. I do have some e-mail for my volunteering I need to get done today, so I get on that, and I check that all upcoming bills are scheduled/paid and there’s cash available for it.
11 a.m. – I’m craving some snacks, though, and we have a small amount of money on our Qapital debit card that I need to use up before we can close it and stop the membership fee, so I go out to Aldi. Sometimes I shop like a 6-year-old there. I get chocolate cookies, seashell chocolates, a pumpkin cake roll, prosciutto, popcorn, a buffalo chicken flatbread pizza (do not recommend, so salty!), a fancy tub of yogurt, and mango. $26.
11:30 a.m. – I take a 5 mg gummy and after it kicks in (some 90 minutes later) I run a hot bath with a Lush snowman bomb, a cold Diet Coke and a cup of the various chocolate snacks, and ahhh. The tub is actually big enough for me to submerge in, and my spouse scrubbed the tub yesterday for me. It’s exactly what I wanted.
4:30 p.m. – After he’s done with his workday, the spouse and I sit down and watch the new Mandalorian episode (‘The Jedi’). My only complaint, even if it’s a big one, is Rosario Dawson. Otherwise, damn, that was good.
6:30 p.m. – Dinner is a variety of Thanksgiving leftovers. I have no complaints. In fact, I kind of want to make another casserole.

Total spend:
Food, $26.
Day 6 (Sat Nov 28)

6:30 a.m. – I wake up, take care of the dog, and it’s back to sleep.
9 a.m. – Coffee and contemplation. I have a bowl of Cheerios since the milk needs drinking. Spouse doesn’t eat until 12 – a frozen pack of tamales. I scramble some eggs.
1 p.m. – Spouse tells me he’s grabbing a game from Steam’s sale, something about space salvage. We usually set about $100 a month each for personal spending, but that too gets clamped down until further notice. His game is $18. I tell him I’m wanting a pair of fuzzy slippers, he asks if that means my feet won’t be as cold at night. I cash in a number of rewards and points and get a pair of LL Bean’s Wicked Good slippers for $55. That’s probably the extent of our Merchmas shopping. (Lol no)
2 p.m. – The vet calls and says the biopsy is inconclusive; the mass was too small to get anything off a simple needle sample. We schedule a removal surgery for what will be Day 8 for this journal. The estimated cost will be anywhere between $1-1.5K. Thank goodness for 0% APR on a CareCredit card we’ve kept open.
6:30 p.m. – Dinner is some found pork chops from the freezer and roasted brussels sprouts. The evening is mostly spent doing our own thing. I try to read a Kindle e-book called Romeantically Challenged but my heart’s just not in it. I’ll try a little more later before I return it.
10 p.m. – Eh, good enough to go to bed. All this dark, I stg.

Total spend:
Entertainment - $18
Clothing - $55.
Day 6 (Sun Nov 29)

6:30 a.m. – Spouse wakes up to take care of the dog for once and also get his bread proofing and ready. I try to sleep in a little but don’t succeed. It feels a little bit like anhedonia.
8:30 a.m. – After coffee we find a box of Trader Joe’s pumpkin pancake/waffle mix in the pantry and the spouse makes some for breakfast. I check our accounts and see that my paycheck is in, and I budget out the next 14 days of bills with it in YNAB. My spouse has at least two more paychecks coming (one of them will be his vacation days payout), and we’re going to make it stretch.
12:30 pm. – After the loaf of sourdough cools, lunch is a very tasty ham and cheese sandwich on fresh bread. We talk about what he thinks he wants his days to look like (some online training, some cleaning, some chores), and that I do want to grab a few things from Target.
1 p.m. – After a good long walk with the dog I place an order for pickup: Comet powder, Barkeeper’s Friend (a must for our kitchen cleaning), a bottle of toilet bowl cleaner, Honey Bunches of Oats, and Versed’s retinol. I blame Hyram and Cleaning TikTok, but have no regrets, really, I’m glad to get any of these cleaners with the holidays and Second Lockdown. I also get a gallon of milk while I’m there to pick up my order. $35.
6:30 p.m. – At some point I doze in between TikTok scrolling and the spouse watching Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. After the movie he gets up to make dinner (the last of the pork chops and brussel sprouts), and then he gets ready for the last session of a friend’s short Alien RPG campaign. I scroll around YouTube to get my productive brain spinning a little better (it works, I write up almost all of my Money Diary), walk the dog, run the dishwasher, and start turning in early to unwind without screens and try the new retinol.

Total spend: $35
Food - $2.55
Beauty - $22
Household - $10.45
Day 7 (Mon Nov 30)

6 a.m. – I tell myself that I’d still have fun only window-shopping. NOPE. Then again, the more I think about it, the more likely I’d still not buy anything because I was really eager to pay off all our credit cards first. But I did notice that we’re down to our last roll of poop bags and I’ve been meaning to get some wireless comfort bras for continuing to work from home, so I grab a thousand bags and 2 bras from Amazon. $55.
9 a.m. – It’s my spouse’s first day of unemployment. He finally gets up and warms up his coffee from the carafe, and sits down to his game. I admit I have to try hard not to get distracted and (wrongly) jealous of his newfound free time. Most of my email and meetings today are from people who are scrambling to get year-end documentation and processes done in time. I’m grateful for good headphones and CHVRCHES.
11 a.m. – I cook up a pack of ramen and get back to work in time for a lunchtime meeting, and more attempts at calming frantic people.
3 p.m. – I’ve had enough of it, and get an email that my hold for a digital copy of Tiny Habits is in, so I download it and start reading. Maybe I can steer myself to being more empathetic. I run two loads of laundry, empty the dishwasher, scrub the stove (kinda satisfying, should have done it after Thanksgiving) and clean the bathroom sinks. I leave the vacuuming and kitchen floor to the spouse for another day. Then I spend some time running the dog’s favorite toys around and reading.
6:30 p.m. – Dinner is grilled cheese and tomato soup. It's 19 degrees out after windchill and our apartment is drafty, so we put in a small fire and I watch some Kitchen Nightmares. The cold season ahead makes me raid Old Navy's sale on a whim, and I get two pairs of fleece leggings, two pairs of flannel pants for my spouse, and two pairs of cozy socks, all for half off. $70.
10 p.m. - Before bed, the dog gets extra kibble since he can’t have food tomorrow before surgery. There are few things that show betrayal as accurately as a corgi denied his breakfast, I'm not looking forward to the confrontation.

Total spend: $55
Household - $18
Clothing - $125
Section 5 – Reflection

We've seldom bought this much clothing in six months, let alone a single week, but between sales and the desire for cozy, I couldn't pass these up.
It’s not uncommon for us to make multiple runs for groceries, though this is a little high for unexpected impulses. We were pretty good about cutting down on luxuries and nice-to-haves (like Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams) when furloughed or out of work, and I feel okay on that front.
I do hate that I am bored and frustrated that I can’t do the holiday shopping I think I want to do, and that’s something to work on. Hopefully I take it out on the house and clean a lot instead.

On the 4th of February, we hosted an AMA with Verasity Founder R J Mark. Thank you to everyone who joined, we answered a lot of community questions in depth (39 in total!). If you missed it, below is the complete transcript. Exciting information in this, make sure to read it all. 👀
Hello Verasians. I am Bhav, the marketing manager at Verasity and I’m joined by R J Mark, the founder of Verasity. Thank you for joining us for this AMA! :smile:
Mark: Hello everyone.
We will be answering all of the pertinent questions that the community have sent in throughout the week. Once these questions have been answered, I will open up the chat so you can ask further (non-repetitive please) questions, the chat will then close once more for Mark to answer. The transcript of this AMA will then be posted on our Medium.
Let’s get straight into it!
Q1) There will be no deadline on the swap so there is no rush and no fear of losing your tokens. They can be swapped at any time. Is that right?
Absolutely right. There is no deadline on the swap For more details read:
VRA Token & PoV update
Q2) Regarding the ERC777 Token Swap, you don’t need to withdraw to VeraWallet on the day of swap? Can I do it later?
Correct, take your time, there is no rush. You can do it at any time. There is no deadline or end date for the swap. We are making this as seamless and easy as possible for everyone.
Seamless and easy. That’s the way forward ✅Q3) Will we see more movements from the Foundation wallet. What is this about? The Swap?
That is correct. In anticipation of the swap company wallets’ tokens are being swapped via VeraWallet. See the article about this:
VRA Token & PoV update
New Foundation wallets will be created to replace the old ones.
Q4) Any plans to keep staking beyond the 31/12/2021 deadline?
We have not made a decision yet but liquidity mining is very much in play and could replace staking after Dec 2021. We will announce mid-year.
Q5) All the tournaments are free to join. How does that help the company to generate revenue? Is there a place or example where users/players are actually using the VRA token to get a product/service?
_Great question!_The tournaments are free to join since we are focusing on adoption and scaling the number of users we have globally. Bringing as many people to the platform is our priority right now. As we expand and offer user-generated prize pools we will take a commission on the total jackpots as a revenue stream. In addition, other revenue flows will become available to us as we build our user base and launch our video player this Q1.
We will monetize our esports content through our video player within Esports Fight Club by serving ads from our ad partners:
Advertiser Partnership Update
Esports Fight Club will require players to use VRA to purchase subscriptions via several payment systems: VeraWallet, PayPal and Credit Cards (although some tournaments are free for promotional purposes). Winners receive VRA for winning tournaments. Soon players will also be rewarded VRA for watching ads. Verasity profits from the purchase of game credits, subscriptions, tournament prize pools and ads. This is an entire ecosystem all within Verasity.
See our revenue forecast here:
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
Adoption and scale are key to the success of Esports Fight Club. We’ve made a lot of progress on the platform and are confident we will continue to see further growth in terms of users and a ton more exposure to the platform, and our token $VRA.Talking about adoption and scale… the next question will answer that!~Q6) What is the current Marketing Strategy? How do we differ from other tournament websites?
After creating mass-scale events around the world, we are focusing on adoption and community this year. Spending $10,000 on a big one-time prize pool to attract 1000 teams sounds good in theory. But, after careful planning, forecasting and testing, the results show that the best way is to spread the tournaments out so we reach a larger number of audiences. This consistency and large reach will attract much more than just 1000 teams over a period of time. The best place to do this is by sponsoring streamers and influencers, who each have thousands or even hundreds of thousands of fans.
For the past week, for example, we’ve been running a Valorant Community Tournament with Esports Fight Club’s first partnered streamer, Mika Daime. The turnout has been massive! Qualifier 1 was filled up with the max slots so quickly, that we had to create a Qualifier 2 just to fit all the teams in.

Most streamers we aim to partner with can easily bring in 64 or 256 teams to a community tournament hosted by Esports Fight Club, for a fraction of the price
With the same budget as a big tournament, of the $10,000 we would have spent on a single tournament, we can obtain approximately 540% more users by repurposing that budget for the influencer and streamer tournaments.

For a full list of upcoming features such as the Marketplace and VoD section read our full Marketing and Adoption post:
Marketing, Adoption, Tournaments 2021 (Updated)
It’s key for people to understand what we aim to do with the tournaments in terms of marketing. We read a lot of comments about the “low prize pool” when we announced the Mika Daime tournament, hopefully the answer Mark provided sheds light on that!Everything we do at Verasity is calculated. 😊Do check this out if you wanted a full read on our Marketing and Adoption post for 2021. 👍🏼If you think you’re good at some of the games we have available on Esports Fight Club, join in! The partnered streamers we have will be hosting a lot of community tournaments, such as Mika Daime!Q7) How often shall the revenue estimates (status update) be updated and is there any new estimation?
We will update the community every six months on revenue forecasts. There are no updates from our last announcement which can be found here
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter with notifications turned on, so you can get all the updates as they come through!https://twitter.com/verasitytech
Q8) Have you changed your business model? Because at the beginning it was mainly about publishers.
Our fundamental model has not changed: Video publishers attract audiences to watch video content and ads. Users are rewarded for it, thereby increasing engagement and monetization.
This model has not changed. What has changed is the type of video publisher we are pursuing. Prior to COVID-19, we pursued traditional publishers. With COVID-19, we saw the opportunity to pursue gaming publishers and more specifically esports publishers. More importantly, we created our own tournament platform: esportsfightclub.com. This allows us to control our own environment, launch our own proprietary video player, own our video content, run ads on our player, and charge subscription fees as well as take tournament fees.
But actually publishers and content are publishers and content whether it’s gaming or news.
It’s great to see how Esports Fight Club will have it’s own video content up on the website so that users will be able to watch the content to earn $VRA by using our own video technology, then use the $VRA to join tournaments, or buy hardware from trusted partners 👀Exciting stuff!Q9) Where can I find info about the Founders token unlock schedule?
Tokenomics and Founders token unlock schedule can be found here:
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
Q10) Does VeraWallet speed handling withdraws scale up painlessly when user amounts boom? And shall there be enhancements to user experience if we for example have tens or hundreds of small reward withdraws daily?
We are adding automated withdrawals for small amounts to the roadmap but first have to complete the swap and add the security protocols. We won’t risk our users’ investments.
We simply don't want to risk our secure environment.
Q11) Are there any plans for compounding rewards for the VeraWallet staking?
No, absolutely not. The simple interest we are paying now is already high.
Q12) Bit confused about the VeraWallet staking rate after March. Can you clarify?
The staking reward rate is 0.1% per day (36.5% per annum) until 31 March 2021 when it becomes 0.07% daily (25.55% pa) until 31 December 2021.
Q13) When can I instant stake with BTC?
Good news, BTC is already available in VeraWallet for Instant Stake together with ETH, BNB and USDT.
Try Instant Buy and Stake out for yourself here:
VeraWallet - Official VRA Wallet
Instant Buy and Stake has been a really popular update to VeraWallet. Great to see the community loving it. 👍🏼Q14) With the recent developments on Cardano, and the ease in which ERC-20 tokens can migrate to this superior to Ehereum platform, are you considering following suit of great projects like Celsius to move VRA over to Cardano? I know we are still a bit hurt with Binance VRAB. I understand it is not an easy decision. Just interested in what you think about the future on Ethereum.
We gave this a lot of thought and investigation and as the community knows we have experience with token migrations :)
Please see our latest update on the VRA token swap to ERC777 and Proof of View:
VRA Token & PoV update
As to Cardano — the liquidity is really small compared to ETH alts. For example on Kucoin it’s volume is less than $2m per day. Even on OKEX it’s only $3m. 50% of Celsius’ volume is on Uniswap which is the majority of the liquidity and is not on any Tier 1 exchanges. Aside from the lack of features that we need for PoV, after our last experience, we are very reluctant to join with mainnets that are generally illiquid. Celsius’s solution is to provide the liquidity themselves through Uniswap which is limiting in our view. We believe sticking with Ethereum is the right way to go and the market seems to agree with this as well.
Q15) The new VOD platform, when is it going to be finished and in use?
We are working on it now and expect it to meet the roadmap target of Q1: see verasity.io for the roadmap.
Can’t wait for it to be released! 🚀> Yes, this is a huge milestone for us and opens us up to so many possibilities.Q16) Is liquidity mining still in play? Will this replace the staking rewards after December 2021?
Good question. Yes, liquidity mining is very much in play and could replace staking after Dec 2021. We have not made that decision yet but will announce as soon as we do.
Q17) Are there new partners/publishers in the trend of gaming for the ad stack?
Yes, FB, Google and others. Please see:
Advertiser Partnership Update
In total 17, many specializing in gaming.
I don’t think today there are many ad networks that are not into gaming. It's such a huge audience sitting at home during Covid.
Q18) Micro tournaments: could you arrange tournaments yourself, like a national tournament for example?
The Esports Fight Club platform is fully self-managed, so yes, you could set up large tournaments and be the admin and sponsor. We would definitely like to see this happen by our community members. This quarter, our admins and developers are focused on A/B testing different tournaments with multiple communities to see if we are missing any critical features demanded by gamers. An article will be coming next week about micro and partnered tournaments. We will explain how these increase platform adoption which benefits both influencers and Esports Fight Club.
If anyone does host some tournaments, message me! I’d be happy to join a few… dust off my skills. I heard Rob (Our Finance Director) was a bit of Counterstrike wizard in his day… 😂Q19) Why are the tokens bought via the instant buy taken from a pool which dilutes the total supply? This is like raising new capital for $VRA at every buy instead of us token holders getting a price increase.
These are not purchased from a pool. If you mean that Foundation tokens have been transferred to VeraWallet, see the article:
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
In the Total VRA Supply, line 9, this VRA is already taken into account as part of both total supply and circulating supply. It does not increase either. I think this is really clear.
Q20) Asking about the “Instant buy and stake feature”. If someone buys $VRA using this system, there is no transaction on the blockchain. You say you buy directly on exchanges but no proof.
Buy backs of VRA do not happen instantly and we don’t announce buy backs in advance to avoid speculation. We don’t share our VeraWallet addresses as we have stated before. We are not going to provide speculators with tools to make a margin on each purchase.
Q21) Do we stay on the Ethereum network?
Yes, see the article:
VRA Token & PoV update
We are swapping our current ERC20 tokens to ERC777 which is essentially an upgrade to a more modern and fuller feature set Ethereum token.
For anyone just joining the chat, make sure you read the article above! Tons of important and exciting information.Q22) From the Foundation wallet tokens have been unlocked in the last 50 days and added to the circulating supply. How is our token deflationary?
If you mean that Foundation tokens have been transferred to VeraWallet, see the article:
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
Foundation tokens are not locked and the article clearly states they are unlocked. In the Total VRA Supply, line 9, this VRA is already taken into account as part of both total supply and circulating supply. It does not increase either. We specifically provide for ALL Foundation tokens, allocated and unallocated, as part of the current circulating supply so this is NOT adding to the circulating supply.
Q23) Asking about adoption figures. You claim to have had 8M people looking at your gaming videos (mostly fakes views as the counter earned millions in hours).
The adoption figures were not fake or exaggerated, it is important to understand that this number is a combination of different metrics, all of which ensure one thing: People viewed our live tournament page. This number includes:

Unique gaming viewers landing on our page to be able to find the stream in their native language (English, Korean, Hindi, Mandarin and Nepali)
Social media followers and curious gamers who landed on our page after subscribing to our contests, looking for airdrops or just by following our different marketing campaigns. These account for the steady and regular growth of our landing page as we ran these campaigns all-around the globe and 24/7 at the end of the tournament. The livestream was embedded onto the homepage of the website, so everyone who visited our website was also able to watch the tournament
Lastly, the contestants, productions and influencer’s traffic from sharing our streams was what mostly caused big traffic, especially during the play-off and later stages of the tournament.

Although it was difficult to collate all the viewer statistics we believe them to be accurate and fair.

Hope that clears up some FUD! 👍🏼Q24) Asking about partnerships. You say you have partnerships with
Stripe, Tencent Games, PayPal. The truth is any website can integrate these payment/connexion modules without partnership. You just need to read their website and implement it on your website.
Of course, you can add Stripe and PayPal to any website, but try adding them to a crypto-based website and see how far you get. There are no crypto products websites or related services (other than specific financial services) that are supported by Stripe and PayPal because they are not allowed. To obtain these payment services, you need to have special permission and follow a rigid protocol. And Stripe expressed interest in working with Esports Fight Club to reach out to video publishers with EFC to give us access to video publishers worldwide.
As to TencentGames, you need to get their specific permission for certain tournament events and follow their rules. We would be unable to use their logo and name in our marketing material without this. It’s not simply signing up for them. So yes we consider this a partnership because they plan on additional events with us which they now support.
Working with major brands including PUBGM, Tencent, Athena Gaming and Warmania gave us the clout to include major esport teams in our tournaments who will participate in future tournaments as well: FaZe Clan, Orange, T1, Elementrix, Nova, Onic and others. And now because of the history, Blizzard is prepared to provide licenses for all their major games.
We are also in discussion with peripheral manufacturers to support our marketplace launch later this year. As soon as agreements are reached, we will jointly announce sponsored product peripherals that will be rewarded in our tournaments.
Q25) Some things on your roadmap get pushed forward. Why did do you do this?
Our development team has been together doing projects for over ten years. This is normal in large scale development projects. For example, we decided after the large Esports Fight Club tournaments we put on that we needed to finalize and launch the Video sharing platform prior to some other features on the roadmap because without it we would not be able to take advantage of many opportunities including monetization opportunities of the exclusive VOD content that only we could re-publish and add ads to. This pushed certain product features into Q2. Another example is PoV. Initially we thought we would go with proprietary blockchain because there was no other solution that would allow us to support PoV. That changed with the release by Ethereum of ERC777. As a result PoV timeline targets changed so that it corresponds to the release of ERC777 as well as the ability to use it for the Video sharing platform. So in effect, the video-sharing platform came in _much earlier than expected_which pushed out other features/products to accommodate this change. Business decisions and external events impact on the roadmap and it would do Verasity and the community an injustice if we just blindly followed a roadmap that becomes slightly outdated every quarter and greatly outdated every year. It is this flexibility that allows Verasity to take advantage of new information and technologies in real-time. And to push out new products earlier in the roadmap such as the video-sharing platform.
Q26) Proof-of-View™️ so nice!
When will it be a Patented POV?
The average time for a patent to be granted is 3 years. We’ve just started our third year as a pending application so we hope it will be in 2021, however our patent lawyers have told us to expect further delays due to covid. Fortunately this won’t stop the release of Proof of View which can go ahead with ‘patent pending’ protection.
Update: The patent was granted a few minutes after the AMA ended!

Q27) Will there be an app for download on your phone soon? For Staking. Feeling a little insecure have it online on your website
Actually, our mweb and web applications are much more secure than a mobile app. Mobile apps are much easier to hack. Although we have not been hacked, some users have been hacked via their mobile phones but because we have a manual delay, we were able to stop the loss of tokens. The good news is that now with the swap to ERC777 we can disable any wallets that have stolen VRA and return the VRA to the original user. We do have mobile apps on the roadmap but won’t likely support staking because of the security issue and it is not a priority for us.
Q28) Not try to fud here, but would like to get an answer in AMA to suppress all fud in the future 😁
Financial status company. There have been coins sold for listing on an exchange (still to come?). Was this something that was not planned (like extra opportunity to get listed) or are funds becoming empty?
Current resources held by Verasity fund the project roadmap for the next 12 months. We forecast reaching profitability in 2021 which will finance the continuing runway thereafter. As you point out not all listing opportunities were included in the forecast and we stated that: “In the future, additional listings and expenses may require sales of VRA from the Foundation Reserve”. See the funding update here:
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
Q29) The VoD update is a little bit unclear for me. Maybe you can tell some more about it. To the looks of it, it is a mix between YouTube and twitch but with PoV to earn $VRA.
PoV on VODs is a key feature for us and for our large ad-stack network. While we are growing our partnerships with community tournaments and adding more games and influencers on EsportsFightClub: we want our reruns to be monetized, available at all times on our proprietary platform and browsing page. Think of it the way Twitch highlights previous streamer’s lives automatically but on a larger and customizable library for viewers to earn VRA and for Verasity to monetize via its ad stack.
And we own several terabytes of gaming and esports video content which will launch with the new video platform in Q1. This is actually massive, because on launch we will have a ton of video content to monetize!
Q30) You seem to have many products but I don’t understand how they work together?

The Esports Fight Club platform — lots of features already available including global and tournament chats, user created tournaments, detailed tournament customization options
Proprietary video player — in internal beta for launch Q1
Proprietary ad stack — in internal beta for launch Q1
Our own esports content — all the content rights from the tournaments and other gaming content owned by EFC &Verasity — this VOD will be monetized on launch of the video platform in Q1
Our belief that we can drive large streaming numbers via esports tournaments
Rewarded Video for these users to watch our content and ads on Esports Fight Club and not on YouTube or other platforms by utilizing VRA to engage and monetize
A large number of ad networksthat include Google AdMob — Signed on
Proof of View smart contract view verification (on-chain) — now a reality with the swap of ERC777 to fully build out PoV with all its features on the network.
VeraWallet as a payment system (together with Stripe &PayPal) throughout the Verasity network.
In Q1’2021, we will put many of these parts together to start scaling our own video player with our ad stack, producing ad revenues in addition to our other revenue streams.

Q31) What games does Esports Fight Club support now?
PUBG mobile, Free Fire, Counter-Strike GO, Valorant, PUBG and Ludo is about to be launched.
🚀🚀🚀 Great game selection, so far.Q32) Any near-future plans to expand your marketing?
At Verasity, we have a large marketing team that devotes itself behind the scenes to increase our awareness in the cryptocurrency community and reach as many people as possible.
Although we have community groups in more than 10 languages, our local group managers translate all the news, updates into their own languages and publish them in local forums and groups in real time. Thus, we significantly increase our chances of reaching communities that do not speak English. Verasity Spanish, Verasity Korea & Verasity India are already large groups and growing.
We will continue to use media sites, influencers, and all other advertising sources to spread our news in the future as in the past. Gamification marketing opportunities are very important to us as can be seen in LunarCrush.
In return for these efforts, we have gained a great community support that grew slowly but surely. Our marketing efforts will continue to scale. Our goal in this regard is to continue without stopping until every individual in the cryptocurrency community speaks about Verasity.
Our social media metrics have seen a consistent and phenomenal increase over the past year due to our marketing efforts, read here to find out more in detail:
Verasity Social and Adoption Metrics
For us the most important metrics to see how we are doing in socials is LunarCrush:
VRA - VERAsity Insights | LunarCRUSH
LunarCrush Altrank is the best stats measure of Alts social marketing success out of 2100 popular Alts. We tested many marketing ploys to rank highly. When something works, it’s clear in LunarCrush. Competitions like AltWars simply work. This is the meaning of crypto exposure when the Altrank increases in LunarCrush which measures all social volume, % change per 24 hours, and social score. Even with our volume which only ranks 550 out of 2100 Alts, our Social Volume pushes us in front of much bigger tokens such as OMG, DOT, LINK, CHSB and others. Clearly our marketing is working.
The community support has been phenomenal. It’s been great to see how supportive the Verasians have been. We wouldn’t be anywhere without you guys! So thank you from the team.Especially during the AltWars contest recently… we owned! 👍🏼 Power of the Verasians. 🤝Q33)Have you heard about gaming projects Exeedme and Crowns and how can you compare them to Verasity?
We did! Exeedme is an exciting project revolving around gamers personal skill and players betting against themselves (user-centric) that is just at its very inception. They are not competitors as our model (Community, content and tournament centered) has broader purpose and we dont and wont support betting because it will be rejected by many of our partners.
Crowns Token, from Seascape, is a DeFi economy blockchain made for developers building their own online games but who cannot/don’t want to focus on the technical transactional side. Although they are very promising for simple browser and other types of games, they are just not targeting the Esports market and offer, at best, support for upcoming indie-browser games studios.
We would not be able to partner with Exeedme because of betting restrictions but Crowns could be interesting if the games developed are popular with our viewers.
Q34) Are there any plans in the near future (next several months) to list on an exchange that allows full KYC trading for US citizens (e.g. Coinbase, Kraken, Gemini, Binance US, etc.)?
This is hard for us. The regulatory environment in the US is not friendly. Since we are not regulated in the US, the risk of listing on a US exchange and the SEC bringing a claim is quite high. At this time we are avoiding this. Lets see what happens with the new SEC Chair who is quite familiar with blockchain. Should he articulate straight forward rules that can be followed and which will not be changed every couple of months, we will consider it then.
Q35) What is:
1. Business structure
2. Marketing plan for next year
3. Customer acquisition costs
4. Execution plan on tech side to deliver
Business structure of Verasity:
Development team structure is flat with these functions:
Blockchain developers, Backend developers, highload & security developers, Full stack Developers, web/mobile frontend developers, mobile only devs, Testing & QA, Finance.
For more about the Verasity business model and forecast see:
Tokenomics , Forecast, News Update
Marketing plan for next year can be found here:
Marketing, Adoption, Tournaments 2021 (Updated)
Customer acquisition costs
We will provide CAC when we are profitable.
Execution plan
See the roadmap on verasity.io
And finally. the last question on the list…🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁Q36) Do you have an update on exchanges? The one that was hinted end of last year and more to come?
Very important issue for us and the community. We fully appreciate the necessity for additional volume and liquidity. After the last exchange hack and issues with OKEX, we were thrown off balance but had expected to list on a new exchange by now. Mistakenly we announced prematurely and then ran into the necessity of completing the VRA token swap before we list on a new exchange. Obviously, we want to now avoid having to swap tokens on a new exchange. So right after the majority of the current exchanges we are listed on complete the swap (this month), we will continue with our listing plans. We are well on the way with 2 exchanges but don’t think it’s prudent to provide more information until they announce the listing themselves. The expectation is still for at least one exchange in Q1. Please bear with us on this. We will get there.
Been a great AMA so far. Cleared up a lot of questions and hopefully made you all as excited for the future as we are. Tons of great new updates to Esports Fight Club coming this year and a prosperous year for Verasity is definitely ahead.Thank you Mark!Will be now opening the chat for the Verasians to ask some additional questions.Will be closing the chat shortly after and we can get some more answers out. The gates are opening! 😁
Additional questions
Q37) When the Verasity Game Jackpot price will be held again? We are waiting for so long.
New jackpots are coming onto the platform but for upcoming games like Ludo which will be announced later this month.
Q38) Is it possible to create something like a create your own tournament where I can play a 1vs1(or 2v2 5vs5) against another player(s) in any game anytime (like in 30 minutes) and where I can set for example a winning price of 100k VRA. and both players have to send 50k before the game to a smart contract and afterward it automatically gets sent to the winner?
Esports Fight Club allows users to create their own tournaments choosing from the available games list. We are constantly working on expanding the list of available games and are open for suggestions. The players deposit VRA to the Esports Fight Club account and use these funds to send money to the prize pool. It's quite simple to set up and you can do it for any amount and any number of players and as admin, you have complete control of the size of the pot, how it is shared in % for winners when to start, etc. Its a fully self managed platform that works now. Just go in and set it up today!
Q39) Hi Mark, regarding the plans for in-game advertising and in-game rewards this year, could you describe your vision on this? Is Verasity currently discussing this topic with certain game companies, and how exactly would it work in practice once achieved? Any details you can share with us would be highly appreciated!
The way we view in-game ads is our ability to provide our logo or some other image that would be part of the game interface, such as the floor or walls. This already exists and is popular. We are in discussions now with game developers to add Verasity/VRA. This is a high powered marketing tool that will get our name into many gamers’ faces. These are native images in effect. For advertisers that want to use native images inside our broadcasts or VOD, they get stitched into the ad server in parallel to the stream and we get paid for the ad inventory. In-game rewards are still in development but the vision is for users to be able to click on an object in the game and get rewarded for doing so, not dissimilar to clicking on an add and getting a higher CPM.

Our recent swap has been a success so far. At the time of writing this, the majority of the exchanges have resumed deposits, withdrawals, and trading. To see the current status, click here.
VeraWallet has an ongoing swap with no deadline. MetaMask and Trust Wallet have completed their swaps and are now available for VRA tokens.
Please note:
MetaMask is not endorsed by Verasity. There are other ERC wallets out there that you may prefer to use — please make sure you do your own due diligence and research. MetaMask is an application that allows users to access a secure Ethereum compatible wallet directly from their browser.

How to set up your MetaMask wallet

1) Download the plugin
In order to install MetaMask visit the Chrome web store:
MetaMask
Click “ADD TO CHROME” and agree to add the MetaMask extension into your Chrome browser.
2) Activate the plugin
When the Chrome extension is installed you’ll see the MetaMask (fox) icon in the top right corner of your Chrome window. Click the MetaMask Icon and a new page will open which will prompt you to “Get Started”.
3) Create your account and Password
Now you need to create a password for your MetaMask account — this is what you’ll use on a daily basis to log into it.
If you have a seed phrase already — you can import your existing wallet using a 12-word seed phrase. If you are new, then click “Create a Wallet”.
Now set yourself a password using a minimum of 8 characters.
4) Save your seed words
MetaMask will now provide you with a list of “seed words”. Seed words are also known as a Recovery Phrase. You’ll use this random list of words if you lose your password and need to recover your funds and wallet.
It is highly recommended that you write these words down and keep them in a safe place or save the seed words as a file and then password protect it.
Many people skip this process and end up losing access to their wallet entirely.
Ideally keep multiple copies of your seed words in different places. It’s not advisable to take pictures of your seed words or make digital copies of them.
You should not store them in your email, cloud storage, or your phone’s photo library as if you are hacked you could lose your wallet and funds. If you must keep them in email or cloud storage make sure they are encrypted with at least an 8 character complex password.
5) Congratulations! You’ve made your MetaMask wallet.
Once you’ve confirmed your seed words are saved securely your wallet is ready!
6) Adding VRA to your MetaMask
With the account screen open, click “Add Token”, then “Custom Token”
Input the Smart Contract Address that is listed below, the rest should automatically fill out — however if it does not, it is provided below also.
Smart Contract Address: 0xf411903cbc70a74d22900a5de66a2dda66507255
Decimals: 18
Token Ticker: VRA
7) You’re ready to receive VRA
Once the token has been added, you will be able to see VRA as a token within your wallet. You will now be able to receive VRA with ease.
8) How to receive VRA tokens in MetaMask
Click “ETH”, then click “Buy” and click “Directly Deposit Ether”
The following screen will pop-up, with your Deposit Address. Use this as your VRA deposit address when sending your tokens.
After sending your VRA tokens to your MetaMask, they will appear shortly.
And that’s it! You now have your VRA tokens on MetaMask.
