Distribution of the prize: Top 4 win, 1st - 40% of prize pool: 2nd - 30% of prize pool: 3rd - 20% of prize pool and 4th wins 10% of total prize pool

Let me know if you are interested. Please response this topic with the following information:

Code:

I am thinking as follows:
~ Convenient entry fee for individuals: 0.005BTC
~ Are you in? Y

Looking for feedback.

Cheers :-)

Interested users:
1.

Superbu is the most popular one I know of. If we can work around this and make it like the Champions League one, I'm definitely in. Update the thread once things are finalised.

Good idea but I am afraid we cannot have such discussion on this board.
Most probably this topic must be belonging to Investor-based games.

I think this is the right board as I can see a global moderator is doing the same in this board. Here:  Bitcointalk's UEFA Champions League Football Preditor Pool £25 in btc to join

So, I think we are fine. Another thing is that this is specifically for gambling so I think we are fine from this point of view too.

By the way, I would appreciate your feedback on the thoughts in my OP.

Cheers :-)

Why it must be belonging to Investor-based game? It is just like a the other two Football League prediction where I involved in and managed by one of the forum Moderators. The difference is that it is about cricket competition so it is OK to be in this board.
Good luck Royse777 with the idea, sorry I cant join it because I do not understand cricket at all. Probably you can advertise this idea on the cricket discussion thread, afaik there is a thread for cricket prediction.

Thanks panjul07 for your input.

I think since this topic is about sports betting, it's in the right place again. May be ricardobs mixed up with normal investor based games and sports betting types. I do not blame him.

Anyway, I am doing my best to advertise this thread in several cricket threads we have.

Nice idea, it'll be a long tournament to follow. I personally feel that we should have a points system of grading just like Bitcointalk's UEFA Champions League Football Preditor Pool £25 in btc to join

~ Convenient entry fee for individuals: 0.005 BTC seems good
~ Proposed escrow: Any trusted escrow on the forum, my proposal will be minerjones
~ Distribution of the prize: Top 4 win, 1st - 40% of prize pool: 2nd - 30% of prize pool: 3rd - 20% of prize pool and 4th wins 10% of total prize pool
~ Are you in? I will wait until we decide on final terms

Thanks for the feedback.

Sure we can do like the Champions League one. I will need to see if superbru will have the tournament. If you have anyone else in mind then please let me know. I will check them.

We can easily do the top 4 wins and the price distribution

Yes you can use Superbru as I know there is cricket prediction pools as well. I'm not a fan of cricket game but maybe this is the cricket game that you are working on http://prntscr.com/mpehtr
A little suggestion, perhaps you can talk with all the available sports betting sites to be sponsor of this proposal. It will give benefit for both the tournament and the sports betting site who is sponsoring the tournament.

We will go with Superbu. I just created an account and figured out that it is possible. However the tournament is not available yet. Once it will be available then I will create a pool and send the participants the link of the pool in their PM.

This will be an exciting one.

Edit:
Please check this list: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5113733.msg49895124#msg49895124

This is a nice suggestion. Thank you. Let us find the participants then I will try to find an sponsor too so that we can have a bigger prize pot.

So this is a site where you can bet on cricket games or? Could someone explain this better please.

[AB de Royse777]

No, this site will give you the tools to predict the match output and will manage the point system. This will determined our result.

I suggest you create an account with https://www.superbru.com and then join a cricket tournament. I hope the below explanation will help:




Again my suggestion is that create an account with them and just join PSL tournament. Use this tournament to practice you picks.

By the way, if you give me feedback that I have asked in my OP then I will appreciate a lot.


Cheers :-)

[peonminer]

Thanks Royse777 for the explanation. If I understood cricket better I would give it a go. Looks like a good platform though. Best of luck 

[Little Mouse]

That's a good idea. IPL is one of the hot event in cricket world and we should have some competition here. I am not in right now just because I am not sure during IPL eill I be able to make some predictions because of my real life works. I hope I can enter later if I wish.
Escrow is better. MultiSig can also work if the amount is not too much. If it is, people may manipulate it, you know after all it's about money. I recommend Hhampuz if he is well known about cricket.

I will need to ask them if they have cricket knowledge however it may not be necessary because in superbru they can see the point table of the participants. Which will be easier to identify.

Pretty neat site. Easily understandable and I might just check this particular website out soon. Regarding IPL, I know a ton about cricket and IPL in general which is why I am pretty interested in this particular thread.

If you pull this off successfully op, you can count me in. I have been watching IPL since its inception and have gained a lot of knowledge regarding various players and their strengths and weaknesses.
