And the winners of this round are great Qarabag and mighty Bodo/Glimt 

Not bad result for me after all, and I got more points than I hoped to get after wasting some stakes for nothing.
22.05 points was not enough to get me on higher position but with 212.90 points I am not far from the top or from cryptofrka Mafia.
Next week we have another round of Champions League, and this is when I attack with full force.

Damn I wish I took the risks here. I knew it was gonna be one big upset but who would thought it was gonna be Manchester City right?

Mafia @cryptofrka is getting strong here, I didn't do so bad but didn't do too great either, if you get <10 points then its a bad time in this pool.

Damn me for not choosing Barca over goals I thought it was too hard to happen but it did

Gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I announce myself as the winner of Matchday 7, edging out a few people with a rather low score of 27.35. I suppose it makes sense that the lowest scoring MD is the one I excel in. Interestingly, since I'm talking about how great I am, I also have the highest lowest score of the competition (on MD1, 23.90). I'm really good at being average!

For the final MD of group phase, I'll wait til Monday to post the questions, let's try and make it a little more special, eh?

I guess I am worse of the worse in the pool right now with 3 consecutive almost 0 points and now there is a -72 points in brackets which I assume will hit me hard if I don't get any points again from the staked 6 points available to all of us. Yeah you can wait till Monday so glad that we have another match day this very next week so let's have fun now trying to get that yellow cap as the only thing available to play for. I know now that people who are doing good are placing their stake at relatively low odds so they are not getting any penalty at all, I got for the biggest odds and the result was this catastrophic 3 almost 0 points consecutive match days.

Arsenal were rated at 5.0 heading into this round. By the way, does anyone think that City being in 3rd place is some kind of nonsense? It's clear that the group stage is a warm-up game, but City also look unconvincing in the Premier League. If City are so high, then why aren't Chelsea, Newcastle, Tottenham close or at least at the same level as Liverpool?

You mentioned Chelsea and Tottenham which is much more unconvicning than City. Not really sure about these odds, but bad playoff draw can very significantly

But their odds are not just worse, they're significantly worse. I don't see the point. The only thing that came to my mind is that Chelsea play Napoli in the last round, and Newcastle play PSG (both away games), while City play Galatasaray at home. And Tottenham are playing away against Eintracht. In general, bookmakers apparently assess the probability of City being in the top 8 as very high, and for those clubs as low.
But still, City in third place is complete nonsense.

I feel like they use a lot of "historic" data to made their odds so Manchester City weight on that can be "heavy" against other weighters in their algorithm, all this is just a suposition by me since i dont really know which model they use to calculate it, but i agree with you in what you said.


About Napoli..... maybe we can have the first big hit or big shame of the tournament with them out of competition.

They maybe consider that Manchester City has more experience in UEFA Champions League than some other clubs and with Pep Guardiola, he will be able to lead Manchester City to top 8 even with not too good conditions now.

Only one more match day, the last day in league phase, we will know which clubs finish in top 8 and whether bookmakers are right with their given odds to Manchester City.

We might never know everything behind bookmakers and their operations as well as decisions, while we can not control what will be done by head coaches and players on the pitch. Pep Guardiola is a coach with habit of making weird changes and choices in important matches so we can not exclude any weird decisions he will do for Manchester City in the last match.

Can someone explain why I only got 0 points on last MD6 and only 1.65 MD7? Is it because I have penalty to cover from last matchdays?
Sorry I got confused because I see some users when they have penalty I see it already deducted from its total score.
I'm not sure how the computation works here.

[buwaytress]

I made a mistake on Real match, thanks mafia for catching all my foibles. This round was horrible for me, travelling and doing everything hard to check. I ran through quickly but I'll make an official count on Monday (sorry).

Short answer yes. The points you earn are after penalty deduction. I believe in your case the "0" is actually a negative number. You earned fewer points in MD6 than the penalty applied. I'll message joker_josue to show the negative score here. Guess we didn't foresee this scenario. The total score shows the cumulative points you lost from penalties. The MD score shows your nett points for that particular MD.

It will get even better in the next upgrade so you'll understand better.

Didn't even try to catch those, now I am wondering how many more are there 

Gave you a merit just to ruin your rounded number. You didn't deserve it with such shoddy grading

I learn it the hard way but penalty is a bitch here and its reducted from your TOTAL score and applied to the all upcoming rounds. Since its applied to every upcoming rounds even if you dont have penalty on that round, its basically stripping your ability to win the free bets especially when the numbers get bigger

In the end, the total number of points reduction will still be the same by the end of the competition e.g if you have 10% penalty then the whole number of points reducted throughout the entire competition will be still 10% based on your total score in the end

edit : did a rough calculation I guess its way more, not sure and Im having headache crunching this numbers lol but atleast I got it right on the 1st part of my explanation

Mafia @cryptofrka is getting strong here, I didn't do so bad but didn't do too great either, if you get <10 points then its a bad time in this pool.

This competition is my playground. I won a big prize last season as well - CL is something I actually watch a lot of

I saw that the bookies are placing Arsenal as the favorites - I don't really agree with that.
They performed strongly in the group stage but as a team they don't really impress me like they do the others this season.

[buwaytress]

JK guys, I'm sending the freebet to the next best score that's not me. But allow me Monday to confirm, alongside the final group phase MD questions.

Re: Arsenal, favourites to win this? Nah, you need swagger and buckaneering marauders.

Turns out I graded Qarabaq wrong too. I'll make results official on Monday when I can actually look at a page on my computer. It's impossible to do things right now. Might do it late Sunday but suspect I'll be too sleepy.

[notblox1]

Damn I wish I took the risks here. I knew it was gonna be one big upset but who would thought it was gonna be Manchester City right?

I would never imagine this, but they didnt like Norway freezing weather.

Gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I announce myself as the winner of Matchday 7, edging out a few people with a rather low score of 27.35.

Congratulations on very good result Buwa.
Can you please remind me what is the reward for round winner?

They play boring but they have rock solid defense and they can score goals and win, that is what counts.
 I dont think they are winning Champions League this season, my favorite is Bayern.

I'm going all out on City or Barcelona to lose in the next round.

As long as the odds are great, it should be a nice one.

I am not suprised if both lose (even bigger odds if multibet).

Haaland forgot to tell them what it was like there? IIRC Norway also didn't like VAR and stopped using it, maybe without VAR Manchester City and other teams who feel the favor of video have less edge.

But the real story must be about Bodo and how we have to start respecting them. This is not their first time to pull a big result!!

[buwaytress]

Leaderboard is confirmed, and it is, indeed the lowest-scoring one so far. Not a lot of upsets, but I guess everyone went broke going on small teams that didn't do a crazy upset. Personally, the most value bet was Ajax BTTS (7/1). They've been picking up clutch wins of late.
