Bitcointalk English Premier League pool betting Discussion Thread

[tokeweed]

Still down for me.  But the weird thing is I can see the Scottish Premiership predictor tab just fine, with all the leagues in the EPL one including BCT's betting pool league.

There's probably something wrong with the site.  I'll just wait for it to be back.

[Wendigo]

I tried logging in to the predictor with both Chrome and Firefox but nothing seems to load. I even logged out and logged back in but alas nothing changed. I think something is wrong on the BBC's end.

The same here, it doesn't work.

At least you can see something, i see this:

Probably hilarious didn't score well this week and bribe BBC to close predictor for everyone else except him 
Joke on the side, if they don't fix this before next round we can use topic in games and rounds for predictions and add scores later.

[Wendigo]

Scores can't be manually added to the BBC predictor post factum can they? Maybe this issue is just a weekend thing and will be fixed on Monday hopefully.

[hahay]

I just used BBC. I wonder if this is a common problem or not? this will be a loss for participants who have not made a prediction. But it's not a problem for me, I'm also not making predictions for this week, hopefully you will still be happy to be in this contest. Good luck all!

It's still working ok for me.

What do you mean? You can change them right up until kick off but people should get them in as soon as they can and not leave it to last minute.

Yeah there's no way to do that. I hope so too because of this i'm about to miss the last 2 set of matches for this round wasn't expecting this problem to happen.

It's still not loading for me too the only thing that loads up is the ads. Why miss your prediction every week? I remember you're at the middle rank of the table there's still room for catching up.

This is my personal fault, I forgot to make a prediction this week because of the bustle I have and now the BBC is down. I just want to know, is the BBC website often down like this? because as long as I'm using the BBC, I've never seen a problem like this on a site. this is not a problem for me because the league will still last until 2018.

[Here4Trades]

I confirm that the BBC predictor and table ain't loading at this moment, from bad to worst my scores weekly.... sad...

@hahay damn dude I've learned the hardway too ... check here... for future reference

Haha, tell you what, Here4Trades. As SOON as Sunday/Monday is over, logon to your BBC and enter your predictions for the following week. Even if you haven't made any final decisions, at least you can have your scores locked in - in case you forget to come back to do it. I predicted a 1-0 win, so only got 10 points - I thought this was going to be a low-scoring game with a separate under 2.5 wager on it (lost it of course).

hehe all credit goes  @waytress

I was referring to the guy in the above post saying that we could write the scores for the next round in the games & rounds thread and if the BBC site is unresponsive again we could add them later to the leaderboard which I think is not possible.

[hilariousetc]

No, that's not possible, but if the site is down people can still post their predictions in the games and rounds thread and we can make a note to add them at the end of the season.

[hahay]

Well, this is a good idea, it's just to anticipate if the site down again in the coming week and there are still participants who have not made predictions at the same time.

What I meant to say is we can add points when season ends.. I know we can't add points to predictor.

[buwaytress]

Phew. Terrible week for me, managed a paltry sum of 40 all from correct outcomes if I recall correctly, since, as most of you are experiencing, the BBC predictor is down. Not that I wish any of you ill but yes, I hope this week's results caught you guys offguard too.

Guys, just remember, enter your predictions early. You can always change them later. Don't wait till Matchday. I suspect BBC site servers struggle with traffic during matches. If you find problems, post in the Games and Rounds thread, so OP can add scores to final totals end of season.

Time for a bit of distraction for Tues/Wednesday's League Cup. My team's meeting Leicester. Hopefully a win will prove their panacea.

Predictor at BBC still not working for me...Anyone else have that problem? I know that i update my correct scores, but can see what i played and cant see how much points i got and biggest thing that i cant made prediction for upcoming games...

[hilariousandco]

I'm having the same exact issue as you do Bet, I've tried all weekend to get into the table and predictor with no success.
I will be doing as  I always do the predictions on thread just in case this keeps bugged on my side.

Still works fine for me.

Our thread prediction will be counted in case this problem remains right ? my predictions keep ongoing from bad to worst  

EDIT : Predictor and tables are working fine right now for me, I did log off and clear cookie then back log in and everything is working fine now.

Does anybody want to do a side bet with me just for fun?  Pick a player who you think would score more goals against my pick, Sergio Kun Aguero.  Bet will be .01 BTC.  First come, first serve.  If it's ok with hilariousandco, I prefer him to escrow.

[Wendigo]

You can play such prop bets on sportsbooks dude. Why do you want a peer from this forum?

Aguero agains't  Lukaku what you think about ? You want hilarious to escrow the bet or do you prefer a trust bet over all the champioship ? Ain't going to run for 0.01 but if you prefer to escrow it all the way I'm ok with it.
