⭐⚽⭐ Sportsbet's Bitcointalk Sports Fanatics League (BSFL) – 10000$ rewards ⭐⚽⭐

[Harkorede]

No matter we aren't doing that well, we know we are better then those guys fighting for Div 1 title, they just got lucky  

I somehow missed this statement from Trofo, I hope you can take back that statement now, Division 2 would be a walk in the park for any of the top 3 Division 1 users, and to know how competitive the Division 1 is. take a look at the number of losses by each team, and take another look at the average SA for each players too. Division 1 is the league of legends, whether or not you like it

Can someone else send this Tuesday reminders instead of you?
Guys we may need to hire some cheap slave labor to send us this important reminders.

Yes, I can help with the reminder twice weekly Monday evening and Tuesdays too, but you'll need to pay a subscription fee of $5 fortnightly, or I could do $25 for the entire season per user, I hope I can get at least 10-20 user needing the subscription to my new available service.

@igebotz : well it seems you are pretty lucky, so whats next should we bet on? We both got decent number of freebets to use so Im expecting some parlay tips from you. Lets lose together LOL  

You were greedy and messed up your ticket, I staked three times and made a cool $140+ for the team transfer. Tickets worth $500 are still open for tomorrow and the weekend.

Now you owe me a couple beers mate!

It's like you got a decent salary budget to work during your division 2 stay, I hope you don't spend them on Maguire, Onana, and Dembele 

[ralle14]

The strict rule changes for next season will be interesting, and I wonder how many will break it this time now that it's an instant loss. There's also the looming threat of disqualification if you miss out on one too many rounds.

With season 3 starting next week, I guess it's expected to see a few esports questions appear in the early rounds since two of the biggest tournaments will start around the same week until the end of October.

Most definitely, and there would be some International matches too, I would rather not have international matches prediction honestly, and I really hope we'd get to see quite a number of NBA questions quite often too, because the NBA regular season is just around the corner and the pre-season has already started which has been very exciting to watch judging by the games I've seen so far.

It may have been much more if I had used all of my freebets, but I'm delighted with what I got because this is the first time I've used my freebets sensibly. Already in contact with Jackson and Palmer in order to bolster the team's attack. I'm also considering Saliba because I heard he hasn't dribbled this season and his pass distribution is better than Onana's. Giroud s also on the list since he is the only GK with perfect save accuracy.

If the active $500 becomes available, I may as well acquire Trofo and two teams from the third tier and co-own them.

[Renato297]

Thank you very much to the Cro2 team for the reward of the second division, already waiting for the start of a new season that will be more exciting

[slaman29]

Very well done once more to all sponsors and organizers! May I also say that the prizes are really very big, and there's no other place that gives that big freebets nobody even comes close.

I think the other "benefit" nobody realized is we are now experts at getting non football sports right lol

Good rest to everyone, so excited to be in best league again, I hope I don't yoyo!!

[Trofo]

accident.

There is 1 significant rule change, though. Late submissions will mean automatic loss – so please don’t submit in the last seconds.
We also won’t be sending reminders for submission on Tuesdays.

It is not a case of we don't want to do it, it is a case of we want dedicated managers to do well and have bigger advantage.

Most of you are now playing 2 whole seasons, deadline has been the same for every single round. Really shouldn't be a problem to visit a thread on Sunday evening or Monday, see who you are playing against, skim questions and decide when to answer.

Do you think Premier League clubs get notifications to make sure they will not forget to appear on game?

and Euroleague too, it already started, and becomes really interesting with all new additions from NBA, hope to see some questions from time to time

in Premier league no, but League One or Two are probably having some system for that
kidding, agree that reminders are not necessary if you have same deadline for 2 seasons, it is over 30 rounds with cup, one should make a habit

and now I will probably miss first round deadline

[goodpunt]

Thanks for the free bets.

Almost forgot that Sportsbet is offering british horse racing too.
So had a "good punt" with the free bets on the horses yesterday and thankfully former champion jockey Oisin Murphy and Phone Tag won their race.

Can't wait for Season 3!

You were greedy and messed up your ticket,

Lol yeah I was greedy but I havent messed my ticket up. All I need would be Wolfsburg W to win tonight. Well to bad that they dont allow to cash out on free bets betting, otherwise I would be cashing this out as I got my own hunch that Wolfsburg W is going to mess this one up

Business Name: Harkorede BSFL notification company  [/size]

LOL this is actually a pretty good business idea 

Giroud s also on the list since he is the only GK with perfect save accuracy.

Giroud > Onana so far . thats a fact and it was a pretty good save from him

[Strongkored]

Confirming that I have received the rewards for the second season which has ended smoothly.
Thank you very much to all parties involved in this event, Sportsbet for its sponsors, and also Trofo & cryptofrka who always provide good questions every week which of course is not an easy thing.
Waiting for the third season to run, with changes in the rules, hopefully, this will make this competition even more interesting in the new season.

[Igebotz]

Do you think Premier League clubs get notifications to make sure they will not forget to appear on game? 

Nope, They aren't notified unless there is a match postponement or a delay in kick-off time. And, unlike a certain Div 2 club, they stay to their word.

I didn't realise your last game was today; I assumed it was for the men's team. I also didn't realise there were CLW league qualification matches today, danm it! Wolfsburg W will cripple the Paris Ladies. You're taking this with you, man. I'm making another game today, and if you're interested, I'll share the ticket.

Giroud > Onana so far . thats a fact and it was a pretty good save from him

Giroud has a better saves % this season than Allison and Onana combined. No way Onana was saving that !

[slackovic]

I'm also fine with automatic loss if someone is late to submit their answers. I'm sure it's a real pain in the ass for Trofo and cryptofrka to keep track on who submitted and who didn't and to hide their opponent's answers in the table.

[Woodie]

Welcome to the 3rd Season of the BSFL!

There's also a slight change in how we'll calculate the freebet round winners.
First criteria will be total points, and only the best answer in the league will be able to claim the H2H point.
Second criteria will be all the H2H duels in that round between the tied players. If the player already claimed a point for the best answer in the league in a H2H question, that one will not be counted.

These two changes of First criteria and Second criteria in regards to best answer kind of contradict each other and disadvantages whoever gets the best answer correct

Perhaps my question should be what is the best answer here ??


Otherwise great rule changes for the competition

• No reminders
• Automatic disqualification

Btw with the automatic disqualification, this also means spreadsheet will be open much earlier correct cro2

And no mention of VAR

No, the spreadsheet will be open as it was opened in the first two seasons. When the deadline passes.

And yeah, what about VAR? I hope you will keep it with the same rules.

Yeah, VAR stay on with the same rules. That was just the post where we wrote what changed and what we believe you should be notified about. That post will get incorporated into OP but this way those that are with us from the beginning don't have to reread that.


Notifications lost any sense in second season. Most players waited for last moment anyway so we had to notify 75% of the league every time. That is plain stupid. You are all capable enough to know when the deadline is, to make tactics that suit you and to suffer the consequences if you miss it.

It is also more fair to engaged managers who can only profit from these changes.

[buwaytress]

Ooo that rule change could turn out to be a lot more significant than we would imagine. Don't recall Div1 ever having late submissions, has it ever?

I'm always on board. I have always submitted close to deadline when there are games anyway and Tuesday is a routine now for that. So can only blame myself if ever late. No reminders,  that will be interesting ha.

No more easy points either now that Ige has left us...

Nah, you misunderstood.
The rule just says that if you already won a point in the H2H question (not against your direct opponent, but against the whole league in the freebet competition), you cannot claim that point once again.

Imagine it like this - there's a H2H Dota question. You have the best answer in the whole Division.
Your round opponent had a worse answer and you win a point in your H2H duel.

You have 5 points in total for the freebets, which is the best result in the league but another player has 5 points as well. Considering that you won a point already with the Dota H2H question that brought you up to 5 points, when we compare your H2H questions, we won't take the Dota one in consideration - because it already brought you 1 point there.

____________________________________________________

Regarding the tagging - we have to plan to be at home on Tuesdays afternoon to do that - which is not always easy. We did it for 2 seasons to make the competition fair and engaging, but now we feel that you should already have a feel for it and simply set up your own reminders.
Make a recurring weekly Tuesday phone alarm at 3 PM called BSFL and you'll probably never forget to submit.

From the organization standpoint, it's also more fair to write it as an instant loss. It's the same for everybody, goal difference won't be affected, we don't have to hide people's answers etc.

We hope you'll be submitting on time, the competition rewards are really good, freebets are always an extra incentive so there are a lot of reasons for you to do that. Now you're even incentivized to submit early because it gives a small edge for the freebet win.

I still have two $20 freebets so hit me up if you have anything, either by PM or post it here lol. I dont know anything good to bet on, I tried horse betting earlier in the morning by betting on favourites then turned out that horse lost  .

So its halftime for Paris W - Wolfsburg W, score is 3-2. Im pretty surprised with woman's football lol, its pretty volatile 

Ooo that rule change could turn out to be a lot more significant than we would imagine. Don't recall Div1 ever having late submissions, has it ever?

Well as much as I hate to admit this, I was late 2 times last season so yeah I paid the price for being relegated to division 2 now  . Well thinking back, I think I would have survived this if only I didnt submitted those two late as I would have gotten 5 extra points from that ( 1 time win and I would not get -2 points reduction )
