We talked about rewards distibution a lot when we started with BSFL. If you award only the top spots, a lot of people will lose interest.
In BSFL it is even more important that everybody plays - here not so much, but there's always more interest when more people are in the prizes.

I'm supporting the 'top 10' distribution that's being mentioned, the top prize still looks very attractive and almost half of the people get more than their buy-ins back so that's great as well.

Yeah, that's what happens when you're too defensive and give your opponent the whole court to use against you.
Doković struggled even in the round before - against Vukic.

Tommy Paul will fancy his chances now, I can see him getting to the final. The lower part of the draw is more interesting anyway, Sinner is my pick ahead of Alcaraz.

Ugrađeno je, naravno. Mislim da je najveći driver cijene to što nema BTC-a na prodaju, ETF-ovi su prva gigantska lova koja se legalno može sliti u kripto i sad počinjemo biti svjesni one scarcity priče koju smo svima pričali.
E sad, zamislite još kad GBTC završi dump. Ovo što se slijeva u BTC sad su promili ozbiljne investitorske love, zato i vjerujem da nam uskoro slijedi i odobreni ETH ETF.

Ne bi me uopće začudilo da ovaj put nema onih divljih 30% dropova, već da BTC ko SP500 lagano kroz 2 godine došeta do 300, 500, ko zna kolko tisuća dolara.

Došli smo u situaciju u kojoj doslovno nitko ne želi prodati svoj BTC. Nakon halvinga će prodavati samo mineri, ali potražnja će kad se još pridoda retail biti prevelika.

Where were you looking, my man? There's a question for the Cup fixture at Old Trafford.
No way we're not winning that one though, so your usual answer will be the winning one

OP is mostly updated, I'll go through it one more time tomorrow.
BTC price is all over the place so I'll just wait for sponsorship money to arrive before doing the rewards - whatever I do now will probably be 10-20% different.

You were tied only for the 10$ freebet, but your opponent gets it because he submitted earlier. We did change how the freebets calculations work a while ago - I linked it in my previous post.


Makes more sense to have current pairs with new set of questions - where they currently are.

I will be uploading the current round fixtures list in the same post in which I send the questions as well.

Well. I'm one of the biggest LFC supporters on the forum and I'll tell you that I think it would have been a soft one to give. I did see them given though - and I think the ref should have checked it himself.
I'm leaning towards it not being enough for a penalty, but would have liked that the procedures were followed properly.

That being said, it was such a good performance from LFC overall. We bullied City around the pitch 75 out of the 90 minutes and should have won the game before that penalty appeal.

It really is a shame that Klopp is leaving, what he's doing with this team is remarkable.

The questions for Round 2 are here!

The deadline is the usual one, Tuesday March 12th, 18:00 GMT.

It's the CL week so most questions are football of course, with some golf and tennis thrown into the mix.

Remember, we tagged twice only for the 1st round. This is the only tag for this one so set your alarms

Yup, sorry about this. I have a horrible week both at work and at home, will be fixed soon I hope. I'm aiming to do it tomorrow.

_______________________________

The spreadsheet has been updated, nothing's official yet - we need some time to doublecheck. The questions for Round 2 will be posted in 30 min - 1h max.

Freebet winners are (considering it's the 1st round ,I'll explain a bit):

Division 1
Trofo - 40$ freebet

all clear here, highest score

Division 2
cryptofrka - 30$ freebet

5 players are tied on 5 points (Hhampuz, Ulven, cryptofrka, imarios, arallmuus)
Considering that some of them already have highest score in Q10, it does not count for H2H duel
Q4 does count and cryptofrka has the highest score
Damn, if this isn't mafia at its finest, I don't know what is.

Division 3A
B1g4udge - 10$ freebet

B1g4udge and execijutiere are tied on 6 points.
Q4 does not count (B1g4udge already received a point there).
Q10 does but it's tied between them so earlier submission wins.

Division 3B
goodpunt - 10$ freebet

6 players are tied on 4 points.
Q10 does not count but Q4 does.
goodpunt, MAAManda and Spack17 have the best score, goodpunt was the quickest to submit so he wins.

The rules for the freebet calculations are here:

This would probably be one of the worst bets I've ever taken. And I've taken some really, REALLY bad ones.
I know I'm not making Top 5 here, but I've got another league I'm playing - and that one is for food and merch. I'm 2nd there, which means I'm losing that one too if I join the second chance one with -32 points.

I will probably join, but with my current team and without half of the chips (considering that the next one is the one where Free hit needs to be used).
On one hand, I don't really care about 1mBTC, on the other one I like winning and I know I'll probably be shit in that league. It's filled with bad players though - that's the attraction for me

I really wish it came a week or two later, we're not in a good place at the moment.
Starting GK, CB, RB and CM (Alisson, Trent, Konate, Jones) are out, and starting CM, RW and ST (Szoboszlai, Salah, Nunez) are returning to full fitness.

One bench will be full of kids and the other filled with elite senior players.
Still, if anyone can win these kind of games, it's us. This time I'd be thrilled with a draw though.

The criminal octopus is spreading its tentacles to F1 as well.
Pay me out now and save us all some time in the process.

I have started to get a lot of these freebets, I should really try to win something with them. I usually just toss them at the first @5 odds I see

Probably will - if I do, I'm in it to win it so I'll probably go -32 a week before.
How many players are there? If it's like 10 of us I'll play for sure, if it's just 3 or 4 I'd rather aim for the top5 in the current one. Can't play both.

It's always nice to start the GW with your captain missing a penalty
I assume most of us have him as captain though.

Good that I kept the transfer - I would have spent it on another Bournemouth player.
Will be a bit easier now to navigate through GW29.

Caught the last 10 minutes, it was intense, yeah.
Cardiff's comeback gives me a win already, a nice start to the season in the lower leagues.

Can't wait for the LFC - City game tomorrow, and I'm glad it counts for nothing because I picked City to win and I wouldn't be able to cheer for that

Odluka je odgođena, vjerojatno zato. 23.5. je datum kada bi se moglo dogoditi da se odobri - eventualno mogu odgoditi, ne vjerujem da će odbiti.
Blackrock je predao zahtjev, njihov Bitcoin ETF je (osim Grayscalea) najveći, sumnjam da bi predavali zahtjev da nemaju info da će biti odobreno - isto i za Fidelity.

Čudi me ATH prije halvinga, al zamislite kakve nas 2 godine onda tek čekaju. ATH, halving, ETH ETF, ETH ATH, nećemo znat kamo s parama.

Uz sve to, ne bi me uopće začudio neki konkretniji dump. Sve do sad je bilo dosta brzo pokupovano, jedan pravi je neminovan. Tad prodajte organe, rodbinu, šta god imate - kupit ćemo sve novo i bolje za 2 godine.

Sretan vam ATH day!
Malo odzumirajte chart, pogledajte monthly, weekly.. pa uzmite u obzir da još nije bio halving i da nam slijedi ETH ETF, koji će lako moguće biti i značajniji od BTC ETF-a.

Slijede nam ludo dobre 2 godine, ajmo ovo odradit kako treba i svi skupa u penziju.

Hint: spot is your friend. Bit će svega, manite se leveragea.

Yeah, if we start the Second chance league from GW30, I'll give myself some more time to decide.
Might be easier to beat those noobs there than hunt the Top5 spot - but it's kinda unfair to play only 8 rounds with totally different set of chips available.

This round will be another interesting one, I thought about picking more Bournemouth players but there's basically nobody to pick.

Yeah, I fell asleep mid-game and then marked incorrectly.
Going through the thread now to see if I messed something else as well, seems that this was the only thing.

We would have seen this eventually though - we always make additional checks.

Sorry for the general absence as well - this and next week are crazy tempo for me. But you've got Mini Me lurking around ready to assist.


PAOK was horrible but fair play to Dinamo as well. Looked like a routine win, let's hope there won't be any surprises in Greece.

_____________________________

Durant was the obvious NBA pick for me, shame that Jinetics1111 had him as well. I am a goal up and the worst I can do is draw, it's all in Ipswich's hands.

Yeah, they did have some decent attacking moments but are overall a bad team. Their defensive game is simply not good enough for a team of Liverpool's calibre.
I expected this to be easy and am glad it turned out to be, we need all the 'free' games we can get in our busy schedule and this one is taken care of already.

Nice to see Salah on the pitch again, he'll be crucial for our game vs City. I still don't expect him to start though.

S obzirom da pričamo o Etoru na kojem sam odabrao 5 likova i većinu love stavio na copytrading, ispis tradeova je trenutno (ne zajebavam se, upravo sam downloadao dokument) na 1848 stranica.
Koji kurac da ja sad radim s time? Dođe mi da to isprintam i bacim im na stol.
