Some of you paid and didn't join the leagues yet, don't know if you guys seen it but there is code in the OP so go for it. You can auto-select players for first draft and then make as much transfers as you want before first game starts.

I'm extremely unlucky with fantasy competitions but I'm joining.
I will be able to make my payment in 2 days, I think I will make it before the deadline?

It seems to me that for Germany this home Euro is more likely to be a failure than a triumph (but randomness, of course, decides), and most of all I doubt Neuer.

[buwaytress]

I've set my team, used up every single bit of my budget. Need to ensure I pick the right team though, haven't cycled through the first batch of games to see who starts.

And now just signed up to league. Trofo's got a really nice team name.

I'm Already on a side bet with Hhampuz, I may take few others from very terrible players like buwaytress, Teher and the rest...

I know that I still fall into the category of terrible players, I am bold to keep playing with the pool, but not yet bold enough to take up any side bets. Taking up any side bets with anyone is almost the same as just sending them the money.

It's one thing to be bold, it's another to just completely enrich you guys, which is what I'll be doing taking sidebets at this point haha. I need to at least give some competition. Perhaps in the middle of the tournament, like me and Igebotz do -- match by match.

I don't usually trust my balls like Ige, but I really like Portugal -- and if they have the balls to leave out Ronaldo of the starting 11, they have my money.

[Harkorede]

Apart from being an absolute shit in fantasy lately, my biggest concern is my availability and if I'd be having time to even set up my squad frequently let alone be able to follow match days, and unlike the FPL this match days are much more dynamic, it could happen midday on Monday or Sunday at 8pm. It's supposedly going to be a really busy summer for me, and but where is the Pool and competition integrity If I'm going to miss out on this one ? Damn! such a tough one ngl!

[Harkorede]

Apologies for double posting, I’d rather this post is unedited.

I’m in for the Euro Fantasy, that’s basically an extra tip for the guys that win though 🥴

I spoke with Trofo and rather than complicate the pool fee, He’ll help take care of Euro Pools payment, a total of 2.5 mBTC.

Thanks for the calling my awareness to this @icopress, I probably would have missed it, still could, However, I hope my mock team can stand a chance or I could perhaps borrow @Igebotz BSFL autopilot machine 🥴

Quoting to make it official

We will gladly accept your donation  That is the spirit, no matter our obligations pools must be played.

I will be the first to share my team. 

Like the team, especially faith in my croatia, my current one is quite similar. No point sharing since it is changing for sure before the start.
few questions for you:
Is Lunin 100% nailed as first keeper for Ukraine? I believe he should be, but the other one played much more in qualifications.
Do you think Palmer has any chance of playing more than 30 minutes for England? He had great season but I don't see him taking place from Foden/Belingham/Saka trio. Isn't it better to take someone like Jorginho and hope for penalties?

[Rruchi man]

I don't usually trust my balls like Ige, but I really like Portugal -- and if they have the balls to leave out Ronaldo of the starting 11, they have my money.

Ronaldo really complicates the team selections for Portugal; in the World Cup, they played better without him. We will see if it is different in this competition. He was the top scorer in the Saudi League, but I do not have enough confidence in him to have him on my team.

Another donation from me as well , I have sent Icopress a message on payment arrangements. The pool will make watching the games more exciting.

Havertz, Lukaku, and Mbappe have been on a goal-scoring spree for their national sides. Good choices, @Icopress.

England is almost like Manchester City in the Premier League; you are never too sure of any player playing full-time.

[Hhampuz]

Seems like I will not get a fantasy bet here easy so let's try this one instead. I think Portugal will do well in this tournament despite being shamed by us today. Is anyone willing to back Germany or Spain to do better? Spain has similar odds and Germany is much better priced so you could have an edge there

England and France are in the league of their own, mainly because of incredible squad depth.

I'm down to back Germany to do better than Portugal, just hoping the draw won't screw it up, haha. How much were you thinking?

The bet is who will get further in the tournament. In case it is a draw we deposit the money in one of our accounts and play a ticket for it then split the profit since it will be winning one for sure 

Friendly bet, anything from 1 mBTC to 5 mBTC or 100USDT to 300USDT. Quote this and choose the amount and we are on.

@CLS63

Let's do 5mBTC! If both are knocked out in the same round of play it's a "draw" and bet is void.

Oh damn we have exactly same forward trio lol. How did you change the icon of your team on the league?

I haven’t looked at the prices yet (how expensive it is to put him in the lineup), but if you don’t take this factor into account, then Ronaldo, in my opinion, is a reliable choice. Portugal have an easy group and he must score points, another question is that after the group stage he will need to be replaced, and this will be expensive in such a short tournament.

[Igebotz]

Really, you believe that? Then you have free money across all bookies. Odds for Germany not qualifying from their group are from 10 to 15 depending on which site you use while those to qualify are around 1.05. Be my guest to wager something on that.

From now on I am calling your let's call it "let's stir some shit" opinions to see if you are willing to back any of them with some money. Feel free to do the same any time I share my unpopular beliefs  Talk is easy put some money behind your words.

Aside from Musiala, Gundogan, and Wirtz (don't mention Kai and Sane), I don't see anything spectacular about their front, midfield is old and defence is only Rudiger. Neuer and others are frauds, and they will almost certainly be crushed by the teams pointed out earlier. Taking the odd easily...

I lost more than 8mbtc the last time I put my money where my mouth was; now I'm just going to believe in my balls and enjoy the game with fewer side bets. As the game proceeds, I will most likely engage in an in-game side bet with you and Buwatress.

Without a good DM for ball recovery points? Do you want to die?

Is there a better pick than Rodri for ball recoveries? You still want someone who can score and assist goals as well.

Not a bad option but I'm looking at it from another other angle - Spain keep possession of the ball with less ball recovery time. No? A less possession based team do more of ball recovery and tracking.

I'm looking at Daclain Rice ( not sure about Kante starting). He ticks the boxes for me.

[CLS63]

I have made my payment even it is late. It is much more difficult to create a team in Euro 2024 compared to the Premier League. I don't think that I'm going to be able to be successful in fantasy this time very much. When it comes to the side bets topic I have created a spreadsheet to make you follow them easily.

[NotATether]

As I mentioned earlier, I will not be joining the pool. However, I am interested in designing a site that will show the pool leaderboard in a more sane manner. It's going to be sorta like the leaderboards that Ulven used to make. Hosting and everything will be on me. What do you guys think about this?

Declan Rice seem like a good choice, but I'm certain Rodri will likely play more minutes and have better chances at scoring than Rice would considering the options both team have in attack, I don't see Rice being heavily involved in attack a lot for England, and with Spain style of play the number of Passes and Ball Recovery that will go through Rodri will like be the most than any of player in position in the tournament. Kante might only be worth a punt if he ticks the boss for price valuation, I've not seen him play recently and would believe in not wasting the chance for having 3 French players that would be much more of attacking threats.

He only cost €6m at the moment, but I don't trust him to start or play more than 20 minutes. I haven't seen him since he left us, and he's not the player he once was, so it'll be difficult for him to play more minutes than Carnivinga and TChouameni, but we never know; Kante, on a good day, would shift Carnivinga to the LW.

Am I the only one having difficulties joining with the code?

Too many euros, don't even know how to keep track.

And now for something completely different, I am gonna trust you all and put code to join the league right here in the post. You are gonna pay the buy-in fee, send me PM with your tx id and Fantasy name, and only then proceed to join the league. I really hope we are big boys and we can play nicely but in case someone tries to misuse this, I will simply create a new league, and send links over PM while putting problematic people in my black book. Considering this as pilot pool  


~

I paid the fee (I was pleasantly surprised by the normal size of the commission) and sent a PM.
In order for the option to join the pool to appear, do I need to create a team first? It seems that I checked the entire interface (from the browser) and did not understand where I should enter the code to join.

It would be nice if more players showed their teams
