^ Just to drop a note that yeah, I'm waiting for Saint-loup -- sent 2 PMs but maybe PM notification doesn't work with his (though he was online Saturday and Sunday, so he should have seen them). Waiting on you to send out prizes, or are you donating the fund to next season's pool?

He's a fairly active user, so I don't think there's any rush, for now...

Oh and as soon as Sevilla-City markets come up, I'm dumping money on the Spaniards. I'm already sick with the idea of City treble, just because...

Hey all, prizes were disbursed to the winners last night, when I received Saint-loup's message with his address. Had already edited the post on prizes, as well as OP to leave historical results, but of course, forgot to make a post here to inform.

With that, the Betnomi Champions League Pool (2022/23) is concluded. Thank you to everyone for your support, I hope Betnomi enjoyed sponsoring as much as we enjoyed playing. Don't spend your winnings all in one place!

Hey all, prizes were disbursed to the winners last night.

Thanks a lot @buwaytress! Really appreciate the smooth organisation and escrow. You did a great job! 

All focus were on KTChampions and we were planning to ban him but it looks like you escaped somehow. I will have an eye on you in the next season 😉

He's the pool GOAT. Basically running hot in every pool, will be pretty hard to stop him next season, haha.

And me.. yea I just got lucky I guess. 

[notblox1]

Congrats to all winners of Champions League Pool and thank you buwaytress for organizing this competition.
It would be much better for me if I manage to finish in top ten positions, but I did few rookie mistakes and I have only me to blame.
See you all next season in new competitions.

Lol I didn't get to the prize, but I was definitely going to squander it somewhere, whether it was on the beach with beautiful women, drinking away from home, or gambling with it.  Thank you for hosting; should we expect a better pool next season?

[KTChampions]

Can I participate in the next pool anonymously? 
Attention and kind words are nice (thank you all), but it puts a certain amount of pressure, and I would like to make predictions with a light heart without worrying too much about the results (this is the strategy that led me to success, I think  ).

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Can I participate in the next pool anonymously?  

You can but I think we all will decide to give you 30 points penalty if you take the lead of the table at anytime 😂
I may advocate for you and will try to convince everyone that it will be unfair only if you decide to share your selections with me before starting of every round. I will try to copy and paste your selections 😉

And me.. yea I just got lucky I guess.  

We will see in the next season. If you are anywhere near the top 10 then you will be in trouble 😁. An anti-bullbro campaign will be activated.

All jokes apart, you both especially it was a great watch to see KTChampions. I guess in one or more rounds I was just talking to myself that how this guy gets all those correct and exact scores. At some point I started to believe that he has some special skill of guessing results until in the last few rounds. In the last few rounds he was not phenomenal but just like the rest of us who struggled to get an exact score.

buwaytress, received the prize money brother. Thank you again and the sponsor Betnomi. My wife is happy and she already had a pair of shoes and a nice handbag LOL. I did not sell the BTC though but I had to give her equivalent cash 🤣

Thank you very much for the prize, I wasn't at home and I didn't think you will be so fast to distribute the prizes, I thought it would take one week at least to get all the winners btc addresses and to send them the rewards. So thank you very much for your perfect organization of this contest, thank you to the other participants and to the sponsorship and congratulations to the winners(I didn't realize the first prize was so big btw)

we are far from group stage, but next season of Champions league started few days ago with first qualifying round
interesting enough, four teams from lower end leagues are playing tournament to reach first qualifying stage, and Buducnost from Montenegro is playing against Breidablik from Iceland, on Iceland soil tomorrow, for a qualification spot

will be interesting season, onwards to it

As I predicted somewhere in othr thread, Breidabik was main favorite here and they had easy game against Buducnost. Game ended 5:0, but stats didn't show big advantage of Breidabik.
It's bad that there is no place to discuss qualifiers. In main megathread these things get lost in daily spam, that self-moderated topic seems to be dead and this topic probably isn't right place for such discussion.

yeah, this is off-topic here, but I don't think that thread about qualifications would be interesting to many participants, mostly to people from countries with lower quality teams, that are watching their best teams pushing through the summer just to be eliminated in final rounds before group stage

and yes, Breidablik won without many doubts, 5:0

although, Serbia now has direct placement in CL, for the first time, so Crvena Zvezda will skip qualifications

nevertheless, I am following it, and we can open a topic to discuss it, and see how it will go, maybe there is some interest

[buwaytress]

Dear friends, I'm just messaging everyone here to say I haven't forgotten about this pool. It starts in 13 days, but as you might know, our former sponsor is no more, and I'm yet to receive a hard offer from anyone. I've reached out to some brands, so let's see!

I'm sure you would all still like to play, so I'm tagging everyone to gauge interest. Worst case scenario, I'll sponsor a bit of bitcoin myself, like the good old days before mega-sponsors

Oh, and, I'm working on something to spice up the pool. I'm thinking of 50-50 prize split between two events:
- classic pool prediction on Superbru
- odds-based system, where everyone has a fixed # of points to stake on ML outcomes, winning points based on actual odds.

@buwaytress, what was the sponsored part last season and how was it structured? If there are details I can always ask around a bit too.

A quote can't hurt here so it rings the bell twice for everyone who's got the bot activated!

Count me in and maybe others can also confirm whether they are in. That might give a potential sponsor a ball park of what to expect here, so maybe some sponsor shows up once it turns out that there is a decent number of people willing to play.

The odd-based idea is definitely nice. It would be more of an experiment as it hasn't been done here before as far as I know, but I have been thinking about it from time to time as well and followed your suggestions in the BSFL, too. Maybe the Champions League is the perfect event to give it a try.

+1 from me for that suggestion.

[buwaytress]

@buwaytress, what was the sponsored part last season and how was it structured? If there are details I can always ask around a bit too.

It was 0.3 BTC last season and this went entirely to a single pot, distributed with a portion of fees. I reference OP:

======

➥ The pool fund consists of a sponsorship fee of 300 mBTC, (valued at over $7000 as of July 2022) and users entry fees.
➥ I act as Escrow on this address: bc1q3rrxzuknzfvlclprprjshqruvjhp5tettcthea
➥ There will be 10 main prize spots to play for.

Code:

The total pot [sponsorship + participation fees] will be distributed as follows:

🥇 1st place - 90 mBTC (30% of sponsorship) + 30% fees 
🥈 2rd place - 60 mBTC (20% of sponsorship) +20% fees
🥉 3rd place - 45 mBTC (15% of sponsorship) + 15% fees
🏅 4th place - 30 mBTC (10% of sponsorship) + 10% fees
🏅 5th place - 22.5 mBTC (7.5% of sponsorship) + 7.5% fees
🏅 6th-10th place - 10.5 mBTC (3.5% of sponsorship) + 3.5% fees

=====

Thanks for offering to reach out! I'm happy to discuss a different structure. The one I'm proposing now is more interactive and less passive -- I'll post details of that shortly!

+1 from me for that suggestion.

Appreciate the shoutout! I've worked on a template, but my formula skills isn't top notch so it'll involve manual submissions for now, but semi-automated tracking and leaderboard. I'll share by tomorrow and see if people are keen!

Dear friends, I'm just messaging everyone here to say I haven't forgotten about this pool.

I was looking for this pool lol. Have even posted in the EPL pool discussion thread. Count me in.

Oh, and, I'm working on something to spice up the pool. I'm thinking of 50-50 prize split between two events:
- classic pool prediction on Superbru
- odds-based system, where everyone has a fixed # of points to stake on ML outcomes, winning points based on actual odds.

That's interesting. Why though? I don't have a problem but that would be a huge pain for you I think lol. Regarding the sponsor, I may discuss it with a casino and ask them to sponsor it.

[cryptofrka]

I'm in of course, and would like to try this out:

- odds-based system, where everyone has a fixed # of points to stake on ML outcomes, winning points based on actual odds.

We spoke about it multiple times already, too difficult to incorporate into BSFL but a fun experiment somebody needs to test out soon. Who better than buwaytress?

[jayce]

I'm in! Any system works for me as long as it's UCL. And it's cool to see so many potential sponsors this time.

[darxiaomi]

Clearly im in, no doubts about it.

Last season i lost the pay positions in the semifinals, so i hope to do better this time. And i also hope to not see KTC walking away in first position so early.

We are gonna have a very good group to start, with Newcastle, PSG, Dortmund and Milan difficult to predict.

I am in, as in every pool here, for the matter
no matter sponsorship, we played without it earlier, we can do it again

expecting an interesting season, and wagering performance is also good addition, do we have some platform that offer that for CL matches, or you will do it manually, maybe we can look through what is existing for similar purposes
