Enjoy the cup and maybe we'll meet there again and get this solved once and for all, no draw in the cup

I'd be nice to face each other there, seeing the draw that would mean we both reached the semis.
I am open for friendlies too, if you have coins to lose in the future tag me Grin

The cup is not a competition where I get good results, if I'm not mistaken the best result was only the quarterfinals a few seasons ago but hopefully this season can go further, and this season got a bye in round 1 because of top standing, but round 2 will definitely get tough competition from the winner of round 1.
Already submitted the answer, good luck guys.

There. I submitted my answers. I don't have high hopes about the cup. I'm up against darxiaomi in the first round and I see he is doing pretty good in the division 2. Also I don't do well in the cup games, but maybe this time it will be different. It would be fun to beat a team from the upper divisions.

Trofo gave me a hard draw, not like there are hard opponents but if I beat goodpunt, I have to face imarios or dbshck, and I don't remember getting good results with them Tongue

Not gonna complain tho, I somehow managed to win the round with @leea-1334 after Tottenham gifted me a win. Imagine winning Arsenal pick when they just won 1-0. That's life for you.

I didn't waste time, submitted already. Goodluck Goodpunt Wink

Trofo I see that we will meet in Round 2 off Cup, if we pass both our first steps. Grin

Cup questions are a little bit harder than usual may I say.

Thanks for your words man, but i had very poor performance in cup so you can have a very good chance to take me down. I dont see yet the questions so i dont know what to expect.

The first win of the season for team Rikafip, and it couldn't have come at a better time. After Arsenal won only 1-0, I thought my chances of earning a point from that question were slim. When Villa scored an early goal, I thought its over and its yet another loss. GG un_rank, this time I was the luckier one.

I lost some money on hedge betting, but I haven’t felt this good about losing a bet in a long time. Grin

Don't count on it. I am notoriously bad in cup competition. League and LMS I am doing usually ok but cup competition is reserved for my under 18 team so board feels less inclined to sack me after exiting once again in first round.

Very interesting questions and difficult answers, I'm curious to see if the football gods will favour me a little more this week, last week was almost a disaster. But this week is also the Cup and not a normal round, so good luck to all participants.

I got tired in the 8 penalties per round, it's not easy when you train to shoot 5 goals...

the cup is the tournament where the divisions are only circumstantial. Roll Eyes

Good luck to all the teams in my division 3

ILuckyGuyI this was another great round for you, seven correct answers I think that deserves it. If I wanted to counter that, I would have needed eight correct answers! Grin

That's not quite what I average per round this season. Maybe I got some more luck in the cup now. Was looking forward to it already. chi20, please try to not get 100% of the questions correct Grin

good luck.

Thanks mate. Grin

It was a really wonderful round for me. I didn't expect to predict 7 out of 10 answers correctly though. That was a little surprising but not complaining about it!

Good, now I'm in 3rd place and still unbeaten. Hopefully I can keep up this form in the league. But now it's time for some cup games...

Let's look at the questions. Nearly all of them are related to European competitions in football which is nice. Only the handball one looks tricky for now but I'll do some research and see what happens.

Good luck, el che!

submitted pretty early since this is just cup round so I can sit back and enjoy my 'free week'. Questions are literally straight forward so its pretty easy for me to submit those answers even without checking much. Well yeah since I am so bad in cup round, I guess I dont really have to put extra effort on this as I can totally imagine myself losing on either 1st or 2nd round

Anyway, I hope I will be getting point from the handball question this time as the last one screw me up so bad.

@general_bitcoin : good luck on the 1st round

I probably have the weirdest draw for both this round and the second round as well, I'm up against players I've never played against before and the fact they're all from lower division is having me really worried, because of how well players from the lower division have always tend to perform in the cup.

Quote from: ralle14 on January 27, 2025, 05:00:06 AM

It was good while it lasted, even though we couldn't get the draw from the final question at least we're still sitting at second in the standings.

Our defense against Slissy's team was non-existent as we conceded six points and got held down to just one goal in the second half.

Good luck with your cup match and congrats on claiming your third win.

A really good match 😁 I was really lucky this round and everything went my way on saturday 😁 When I saw that Spurs lost and that Villa led 1-0 I was sure that this would be a draw 😁 But luck was on my side in this match 😁 Good luck for the rest of the season😁

I have already submitted my answers and I have done zero research 😁 The Cup is not my first priority this season 😁

Cup! No research needed, I think I died early last season so I'm gunning for guts and glory here. Opponents be aware.

Quote from: Rikafip on January 27, 2025, 04:00:45 PM

Ordinarily Arsenal would have been my pick but I thought a Spurs turnaround was sure to happen. Slightly worried they're in such a bad run of form as we need to overcome them in the EFL cup second leg. Hate playing wounded animals in KO tournaments.

Seems like a lot of us are hedging BSFL with pools and bets. We're such predictable creatures, aren't we?

I am currently very busy and raced through the questions so confidence is not very high.
But that is of course no excuse for maybe a bad performance Grin

Wish you also best of luck for our match.

Same here, just submitter, no research at all and there is high possibility I submitted penalties wrong Grin

Though to track them properly when answering, we will have to find some better ways to represent them in form.

YOLOed the Cup as well, never went into 2nd week I think. Don't expect to this time as well.

Tagging those that still did not submit:

Code:

Dump3er
el che
HomieAllDay
Igebotz
kokee44
Omikifuse
Ozymandias_DZ
Pulsar77
Renato297
Saint-loup
SATWAT
shogun47
Spack17
un_rank

There's no extra penalty for not submitting the Cup, other than instantly losing the draw.
Also familiar to most but worth to be repeated - there is no LMS during the Cup rounds.

Good luck fellas, survive this week and you're really close to the rewards.

I know it's late but since we all are YOLOers, how about a sidebet with the cool bois cryptofrka and Trofo? No need to be anything big, just an LMS rebuy's worth on the line each (0.5mbtc)? I'm actually a choirboy this year, not been betting much at all so my week's campaign sig is calling out to me. Tonight, I even have an unexpected free evening to watch the magnificent Milwall take on Portsmouth at home.
