What a super strange feeling is check the spreadsheet on thursday and still only one question is ended. Im the  only one feeling that?

Odd for me too, I am thinking maybe the bulk of games are yet to be completed and only today did some get finalized. I have gotten used to Cro2 making tents in the spreadsheet and updating it within split seconds, so this is a change. You guys got to continue with the same energy you won me over with 

Damn Panathinaikos game SMH.

Did not see a single goal game coming in any world. Lost all my bets cause of that fixture.

Damn bro that's unfortunate, Pana had a few goals cancelled too but it is what it is.

Lets goo Serbia!!

@cryptofrka and @Trofo, what will happen if two countries have the same number of gold medals? Are you going to use the official table that then ranks according to the number of silver and bronze? I just noticed that from 4th to 9th it looks very close and it's not unlikely that several nations will end up with the same gold medal count, but the question doesn't specify any further. Is it that both answers count when say country D and county E have each 15 gold medals but D is 4th because of more silver?
Maybe now is still the time to set things straight.

We are counting gold, so both will count.

Example: We finish with USA and China on 50. Whoever has China, USA wins 2 points, whoever has USA, China wins 2 points. We won't take other medals into account.

_______________________________________________

Lyles didn't lose on 200m for 2 full years so this was a huge surprise. I was sure he'd win, but with a bad time.
Serbia had a near loss vs USA so the basketball question is still close going into the final, although I feel they will hammer France.

_______________________________________________

Medvedev out makes Sinner a huge favorite to cruise to the final in Canada. Overall not many questions settled before the weekend, but still a lot of action in BSFL.

Things are not looking good for me in this round of BSFL, I made some mistakes and I was feeling sick the day when I answered questions
I am already down 2:1 and I think I lost in last two questions, but I hope to win more points in next few days, every point can count in the end for better position.
This designer derbies are always hard for me for some reason

I was thinking that Lyles would break a new record. But he was a big disappointment to me. The biggest suprise of the Olympics was nearly going to happen tonight. If USA Men's Basketball team didn't make a big comeback in the last quarter, they were going to say goodbye to the gold medal. This loss was really heartbreaking for Serbia. They were very close to do what Greece did in the past. I don't think France have much chance in the finale.

Damn Panathinaikos game SMH.

Yeah Damn that match to be honest, I hate BTTS as an option and every time I go for No as my answer it comes back to hunt me, but now here we I went with a yes and it's a lone goal affair.


I didn't watch the game anyway, but looking at the stats, I think BTTS should have been an easy result to get.

I didn't watch either just tracked it on Flashscore, and I saw big chances for Pana a few times with no goals. Was disappointed because at least a btts would've gave both my opponent and myself a red, instead he gets a green sigh.

Still a lot of questions left to go.

Well, you still have one point on the second question so we are tied 1-1 at the moment. I can't read the answers on my phone but I'm glad to have that one point. I have no idea how many different questions we have, but I expect a good round.

I think we have 5 different, and it's definitely a good round, glad I have a point too with LMS gotta stay above. May the best man(me) win.

This round feels like one couldn't have done much differently in order to reliably perform better.

- Rangers tie the game in minute 94'
- Lyles caught COVID on Monday
- Quite a back and forth Panathinaikos - Ajax game, but only one goal (different day, different goal count maybe)

Literally for every question there was an event that may or may not have had major impact on the final result and hence on our answers. Rangers equalizing gave the few who went with a draw a huge edge over the rest of us in regards to LMS and in their respective BSFL matches.

Those are the outcomes where you can't really say that going with a Kyiv win was the wrong decision although it seems that the draw wasn't undeserved. It was quite an even game.

I don't know whether Lyles performed badly all the time because of his infection, but I guess at that level a COVID infection would certainly impact performance. 

The set of questions was difficult to research because for the gold medal count question, you would have to go through all the remaining events and then find out who is the favorite. From what I gathered, China could still have a chance due to team sports and some fighting disciplines I think whereas the US has all these athletics events in hand. I have no idea where this is heading.

Some days are like that where things are up in the air and not based on how much research you do, that inherently is the nature of sports. If it was always down to what is expected a lot of people will be very rich from gambling, but the way the wind blows that day or the mood the ref wakes up in has a bearing on the final outcome.

I was undone many a times in the EUROs competition by the slightest of margins, it adds to the excitement of the competition too.

We are counting gold, so both will count.

Example: We finish with USA and China on 50. Whoever has China, USA wins 2 points, whoever has USA, China wins 2 points. We won't take other medals into account.

There is still a lot to do, there have only been 242 out of 329 competitions, I have also included Japan in the TOP 5, they have now caught up a bit, the first place is in any case between China and the USA, I would have to check again now, but I have completely forgotten Australia and included France instead, it remains exciting because there are still so many competitions.

Medvedev out makes Sinner a huge favorite to cruise to the final in Canada. Overall not many questions settled before the weekend, but still a lot of action in BSFL.

Since I've bet against Sinner, I'll probably have to hope that Zverev wins the tournament.

Guys, check whether you can see the answers on mobile now.

I did some changes, however it is some weird change from Google I guess. I will have to do it manually every round, so for some of these rounds you'll have to remind me

Yep. It's all good now. I checked and I can scroll trough the whole text in a cell. Thanks for that!

Are you sure you can't do it for the whole spreadsheet? It's strange to be able to do it only for a certain sheet.

I can only do it for the whole spreadsheet.
The 'problem' is that it now also allows you to download the spreadsheet.

This means that I have to disable this option before every new round (so you cannot downlioad before answers go live) and then remember to enable it again when we show the answers.

If somebody has another way, I'm all ears - but seems like the 'copy' option is now tied to the 'download' one as well.

Oh, I see. We'll, I think that someone will always be there to remind you to disable that option after each deadline.

This was supposed to be the toughest game, so if we expect them to win the next 2 easily, then they only need narrow wins

Dunno, when I was trying to figure out whether USA goes over 52, I considered game vs Brazil being the easiest one. Having said that, I hoped for maybe 25 points difference so 35 was a pleasant surprise.

Speaking of the toughest game for USA, I think tonight's game vs Serbia won't be as easy as many think. Sure, they easily beat them in the group phase but in that game they were excellent while Serbia didn't play as good as they can, especially when it comes to 3 pts and if they can change that, we might see an interesting game for a change. Hope that I am wrong though so I can count that point tonight. 

Damn you were right about Serbia. Now USA still looks safe for a gold, but now our 52+ points selection doesn't look as easy as I thought too. If it wasn't for S Curry, we'd already be out.

@cryptofrka seems to think US will hammer France. I can't decide now. Maybe should bet on France as a sort of consolation if US don't make it

I'm quite surprised that they beat Germany. Whenever I watched (and I did more than I thought I would), they look weak and onedimensional.
They played great defense vs Germany but both teams don't have really wide rosters so it is possible. They can't play such defence vs USA who will be really careful after their hard win over Serbia.

The bookies have placed handicap margins at around 15-16, in BSFL it is 12,5. I think those with 52 or more take this one easily.

I thought we will at least be 40+ points up by now after the Brazil match. With how France played against Germany and the home crowd cheering them on to a gold, I do not see USA hammering them with 11 points or more.

I also have France to win more gold than Australia, so the more finals they lose, the lower my chance there. If the USA aint hammering them, they should not win at all

The bronze medal match at women's football ended with victory of Germany and Spain couldn't win any medal in that event.
Now, we don't need to wait for men's fooball final match to know the correct answer to the question number 6. The correct answer is NO and only 12 people predicted that correctly.
