Since several users have expressed interest in joining the current bitcoin talk Premier League betting pool I have organised
here we have decided to try open up a new one for any others that may want to join in but missed out on the action at the start of the season. This pool will be run in exactly the same way as the original one but will start officially on Round 22 of the Premier League games on the 1st of January 2018. This gives us about a month to drum up interest. To join the tournament it will be a flat fee of £20 in bitcoin which will be collected nearer the time due to fairness. The competition is similar to Skybet's
SuperSix where you get 40 points for predicting the correct score and 10 for the correct outcome, but over all the games played that week. Points will be counted and tallied up throughout the season automatically via the BBC site and the person with the most points at the end of the league will win the pot. I will create a new league on the BBC's Premier League Predictor website and it will be separate but ran alongside the original.
What I'm wanting is for any players who are interested in joining to state so in this thread. If we can get 5+ players to pledge £20 in bitcoin interested before the end of the year then I will then create a new league.
Here is the current leader-board for the original and most seem to be enjoying it so far and there's a potential pot of of over 0.2 btc which will be split between the top five:

If you're willing to join and pledge £20 then please state so and we can get something up and running for all those who missed out on the original. I plan to do a tournament for every season so you'll all be able to join in the big league next year in the 2018/19 season.
