I think you also send everyone personal message in forum and this two things should be enough.
If some of the players miss the first match this wont be anything tragic as they can catch up later.
And it is not to late to get new sponsor for this pool Smiley

If anyone misses the first game I can just disregard those points from the total at the end.

If you know anyone who will sponsor it please let me know. Even just some free bets as a prize would be great.

Also don't forget to join the EURO predictor pool: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5498708.new#new

First game kicks off tonight.
Joined both competition and I sent my predictions for the first round.
I like UEFA Euro predictor better than Superbru, it has 2x booster and option of selecting first team and first player to score.
It takes more time to send predictions but predicting correct goal scorer can get you 8 points and change everything.
Good luck everyone and let the show begin.

I do as well. Quite bored of Superbru and this one seems more exciting. I only hope we can get everyone joined on there in time. If some people miss the first game we can just disregard the points from that one.

hilariousandco do we need to send anything to you after making predictions on UEFA website and share predictions?

I recommend tagging everyone who joined this pool so far, so they can get telegram notifications.


Nope just the bracket and join the the group via the link or code.

Hey fellas,

hijacking the thread one last time to notify you that you all have free entry to the Sportsbet's Euro 2024 Last Man Standing competition.
The main prize starts from 0.1 BTC and will increase as the tournament progresses, so check it out if you want.

If not, see you next year in the new PL challenge Smiley

If anyone wants to play there's still time. Just make sure your picks are in on Superbru and do the bracket challenge on the UEFA site: https://gaming.uefa.com/en/eurotournamentbracket

I'll allow a few days extra to pay but maybe up to a week max.

Edit. Oh I've just seen that UEFA also have done their own predictor: https://gaming.uefa.com/en/europredictor

It's a little bit different than Superbru where you get extra points for picking first team to score and player etc which could make it a lot more interesting. We did it this way for one of the last tournaments. Should we use this one? Might be a bit late but we could disregard the first game if not everyone makes it. I'm gonna message everyone to try get them to put their picks in on that. UEFA are offering some of their own prizes as well so it's worth doing anyway: https://gaming.uefa.com/en/europredictor/prizes-landing

88  Other / Meta / Re: Why are mod not locking long threads on the gambling board discussion anymore on: June 13, 2024, 01:57:55 PM
This isn't a rule. Threads are usually locked if they're reported and a mod deems them as run their course.

It seems that some members think that things on this forum take care of themselves, that is, that the moderators patrol the forum and delete posts, move/lock topics and ban bad users. If today we have less than 2000 reports per month, and a few years ago we had record months with almost 50 000 reports, then it is a little clearer why it seems to some that the moderators are not doing their job.

I think most mods will handle something if they come across it but staff only get paid for reports (with some other unknown factors involved) so if there's less reports coming in then spam is more likely to stay unless it gets reported. I barely browse the forum at all these days and tend to just stick to reports and the threads I frequent in my watch-list and I suppose that's probably true for many other mods. I think there should be some benefit for users reporting like badges that come with some special privileges etc as it's a thankless task and it's very rare we add new mods based on their reporting so that's another lack of incentive. Maybe we could even give some small BTC prizes to some of the most active reporters etc.

What I knew about gambling discussion board before was that if a thread is going more than 5 pages already, moderator will lock the thread. It was kind of fun at the time.



This isn't a rule. Threads are usually locked if they're reported and a mod deems them as run their course.

If anyone is considering playing please make sure your picks are in on Superbru and do the UEFA bracket challenge as the first game is tomorrow evening. I'll allow a few days after it starts but can't give too much time as it's a short tournament.

If I've missed anyone just let me know. If you've not done the bracket yet please make sure that's in before Friday.

Damn, my BTC transaction is still pending. Placed it few days ago already. Who could have though that tx fees spike this high right after I place my transaction.

Deadline is on Friday, right before the first match right?

As long as it confirms at some point then that's OK. I can give people a little extra time to pay as usual but given the tournament is only a month long it can't be too long. For those wanting to play just make sure your scores are on on Superbru and picks made on the bracket challenge and they will transfer over to the pool once you join.

We dont have a sponsor for this Euros? Also does anyone know what will be the prize(not exact needed).and how many members we have so far?

You can just divide the pot by the entry fee to get the number of participants. There are currently 12 so far. As with all pools I can't really give prizes until we know how many people are playing.
95  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: BitcoinTalk's Euro 2024 Predictor pool Sign up thread on: June 06, 2024, 07:37:19 AM
I am in of course, higher sign in would be nice but maybe we will have more players this way.

If it’s a smaller prize pot and we don’t manage to pick up sponsorship then I’d rather only the top 3 get a paid prize or something but that’s just me.

Go hard or go home Wink

If we don't get many sign ups top 3 will be good, though maybe we could even do winner takes all since it's such a short tournament.

I should have paid when I said I would, now fees have gone through the roof and I will have to wait it out for sometime before I can officially join in.

While we are on the topic of a higher buy in, I will be all for it too, except some people have already paid and should not be forced to make two transactions with two separate fees.

- Jay -

Just send the minimum fee possible. As long as it confirms before the tournament it should be ok.

Paid and sent my bracket. Details in PM as requested.

I see brackets can be edited, so I assume that is allowed to tinker before the tournament starts and hopefully, the link we are sending will have it auto-updated.

Yeah. I think it locks once the tournament starts. Last year I think they had group tables as well like Superbru but can't seem to see them right now.

Make it 0.001BTC and I'll join  Grin

Well I wouldn't have been opposed to that but there's probably too many cheapskates and there's less than two weeks to go so I thought I'd make it affordable to get more people involved  Grin.

For the past few years I've organised betting pools for the English Premier League along with the Champions League and the World Cup and now it's time for the European Championships which starts on the 14th of June and runs for a month until the 14th of July.

We will be using the www.superbru.com website again for both tournaments where you get 3 points for predicting an exact score, 1 point for a correct outcome (win/lose/draw) and 1.5 for a close prediction with correct outcome and the winner will be the person who gets the most points at the end of it. The fee to join is 0.0005 bitcoin and all the money paid into the pool will be split amongst the winners. Depending on how many people play will depend on how many places are paid out but it will likely be the top 5-10 places.

There will also be a smaller consolation prize for the UEFA Bracket challenge where you predict how the teams will finish and how they progress through the tournament: https://gaming.uefa.com/en/eurotournamentbracket

To join please send 0.0005 to:

bc1qw0ncz86vhavy2hvgafzha59s04h740lhtqcup3

https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/btc/bc1qw0ncz86vhavy2hvgafzha59s04h740lhtqcup3

Or scan the QR code:



Once you have paid please PM me with your TXID and url to the bracket challenge and I will send you a link to join the pool.

To share the bracket challenge click the link icon as shown at the end here:



Example:

If anyone is interested in sponsoring the pool to boost the prize pot or willing to offer some freebets to the winner please PM me. Thanks!
