BC.Game 🦁 Fantasy Premier League Pool ⚽ Discussion Thread

[icopress]

This thread is geared towards the hardcore Premier League Fantasy fan base!

• Pool Prizes:

➥ I act as Escrow to this address: bc1qm86ud3gmzu5vwgm3sactrfp9264rrqhg07au0a * Note.
➥ Exact information will be published when we learn the final number of participants (There will be 6 guaranteed prize).
➥ Free bet of 0.001 BTC to the highest scorer in the GW. (Weekly Prize).

Code:

🥇 1st place ~ 40% ~ 70 mBTC*
🥈 2rd place ~ 25% ~ 43 mBTC
🥉 3rd place ~ 15% ~ 26 mBTC
🏅 4th place ~ 10% ~ 17 mBTC
🏅 5th place ~ 5% ~  8.5 mBTC
🏅 Best overall GW ~ 5% ~  8.5 mBTC

Notes:
*above rewards come out to 173 mBTC, which leaves almost 1mBTC for tx costs, everything that remains will be added to 1st place award or taken from it in case mempool is totally over spilling at the time competition finishes.
*there is no sharing of prices, we will use official tie breakers implemented by official FPL page, in other words, ranking from the game itself
*Best overall GW will be proclaimed by me, following all standard FPL practices, chips are counted, extra transfers are worth -4, etc...
so far the person to beat is goodpunt with 107 points score from GW6.

I think that covers it all, and we are set until PL finishes. These rewards could be worth so much more by the time they get distributed. Good luck and most importantly have fun

• How to Join?

➥ Send 2mBTC to Escrow address
➥ PM me your Fantasy name, Sportsbet nick and Tx id (August 11th inclusive).

Hopefully, by the time the FPL season comes to an end, BTC will be worth a lot more, which means we'll have a lot more satisfaction in winning.

Trofo and I will be glad to see new faces in our party!  

GW winner free bet rules

GW winner is a person with most points in that round. Chips count and your minus points from transfers are substracted from total. As per official rules.


We have a couple of people that did not yet pay and some of them are in the league. They are not eligible for free bets. If you don't pay before the official game deadline, you are not competing for free bets.

We accept new entries until end of month at latest, after that whoever did not pay gets kicked out for good and goes in my personal blackbook. That is only for those that got league code on our trust, if you were just thinking about joining and talking with us that is perfectly fine.

➥ Five secrets, tips, hints for fantasy football managers.
➥ Free app or website for statistics and projections.

Note: FPL has gifted each manager unlimited transfers between GW16 and GW17 in a bid to help them work through the disruptive World Cup schedule. Therefore, there will be four moments during the season – excluding the Free Hit - when managers can make unlimited transfers.

• Pre-season (before GW1)
• First Wildcard (between GW2 and GW16)
• World Cup Wildcard (before GW17)
• Final Wildcard (between GW18 and GW38)

Note: Managers are given a free transfer every week to help manage their squad. If they choose not to make one, the transfer rolls over into the next week. The maximum number of free transfers a manager can hold at any one time is two, unless a Free Hit or Wildcard has been played.

I'm very happy that there is going to be a Fantasy League. I'm going to join it by making the payment to the address in the topic tomorrow. Therefore you can add my name also to the list.

Welcome! I am very glad that you will be with us!

Last year I participated in the FPL for the first time and I really liked it ... even more than in the pool of predictions  

[el che]

does betnomi have its own fantasy platform or are you using the FPL platform?

We will be using the official fantasy platform.

It was about time we get a Fantasy pool as well. I feel like there isn't many Fantasy lovers here on the forum but I am sure this pool will help convert some more people. Fantasy is hell of a fun and once you get hooked, there is no going back. This will be my 7th season and it is getting better and better.

Looking forward to fighting it out with you guys

will probably join, since I already play fantasy, and follow Premier league
but, doubt that we will have more than 10 participants here, there is a lot of pools at the moment, and close to zero new users

this season should be better than previous in fantasy, and hopefully Everton will fight for Europe, not to avoid relegation

[Hhampuz]

I actually prefer fantasy over just plain old prediction pools so, count me in!

@icopress, Thank you for organizing this fantasy pool and securing a prize pot that is more than decent.

I'm curious to see how many people will join and how much interest there is in fantasy sports in this forum.

I find FPL and Fantasy Sports in general not to be beginner-friendly, since you always have to be on top of recent events/news and go over a ton of stats before every gw, that's of course if you want to play competitively and win your mini-leagues. My personal goal this year is to get OR 10k or better, i was not that far away last season, just have to clean up a few things.

Anyways, i've sent out the entry fee and a pm!

Hey fam, @icopress, I received your invitation. I just wanted to clear my mind with some questions before making a decision because I can't see it on the OP; please let me know if there is a side attraction such as weekly/monthly prizes or free bets. Personally, I've signed up for EPL fantasy football twice in the last three years but have only played for about 2-3 months each time. I get bored easily.

Well, this pool differs from the rest in that it is intended for a narrow circle of people, a pool in which we make joint decisions. So I'll talk to the betting CEO and I think he won't mind adding a couple of extra free bets (but this feature will only work from September).

So .. addition to the rules ... whoever scores the most points in a particular round can qualify for a free bet (40$).

That is very nice addition to the pool since there probably won't be many of us.

Just to make things 100% clear when you add this info to OP also add something like "after transfer points deduction". That is how official site counts points and only right way but there is always somebody who forgets that you have 1 free transfer and every other costs -4 points.

Thank you for the invitation my friends! However,,, I have never played fantasy and I looked and it feels quite complicated for me

I do watch football but know very little about individual players, I guess you can call me a very surface fan in that sense only good for easy 1x2 gambles and very bad for anything extra

Good luck however, maybe in future when I am more confident!

[Ulven]

Thanks for the invite, in fact I've never been to an event like this before, so I'm going to share in this pool, I will pay the entrance fee later.
In fact, I don't know how the fantasy site works, is it similar to superbru?

Not at all, create account on official premier league fantasy page and then start asking questions.
 
When you create account you will have to enter your team. Don't worry at this stage, you can change players for free until the first match starts. So have fun and try to come up with your team. Then post it here and we will tell you some obvious mistakes you made and there will be quite a lot of them if you never played fantasy.

Fantasy is all about players, you don't care about match result as long as your player scores well. For instance Fulham losses the game 8:3 and you are super happy since you have Mitrovic who scored 2 goals and assisted one even though they got destroyed.

I'm in

I like fantasy football, but I usually lose interest along the line but hopefully that'd not be the case this time since I'm not competing with millions of players. I'll pm fantasy username later today.

[Hhampuz]

Took me several days to try and figure out my premier league site issues, had some trouble with the password and then when trying to reset it just wouldn't let me (I entered a new password but the site just refreshed each time).

I'm in now though! Sending pm with txid + uid, thanks again for hosting!
