⭐⚽⭐ BSFL's Newcastle CL Promo ⭐⚽⭐

[Trofo]

Hey guys as already mentioned in our BSFL thread here is Cro2 with new promo this time covering Newcastle Champions League Run. Most of this text is copy/pasted from this post. No need to check it again, I will mention all the important stuff here once again.

This thread will be used mainly to showcase the competition since our main BSFL thread is already quite cluttered with all the info. We will still use main BSFL thread for all discussions regarding this promo but it will be easier to have dedicated thread for the links, tables, reminders... Whatever we need and feel like it could create confusion in main BSFL thread.

The rules:
The competition will last for as long Newcastle is in the Champions League.
Initially the plan is to have 7 rounds - 1 round before the group stages and 1 round for every game in the group.
If Newcastle progresses from the group, we'll have 1 round before the knockouts and then 1 round per every following game again.
The questions will be only about Newcastle's CL games, 5 questions per round, the system will not be H2H but most points collected across all rounds.
The player(s) with the most points at the moment Newcastle's European challenge ends will be pronounced as winners.
There will be no Divisions, every player participates equally.
The side-competition is for current and future BSFL players - the ones that apply for the new BSFL season before the first CL game starts. We will also accept you if you are participant of any Sportsbet sponsored pool this season.

Prizes:
1. 2mBTC + 100$ freebet
2. 1mBTC + 50$ freebet
3. 0.5mBTC + 40$ freebet
4-10. 30$ freebet
11-15 - 20$ freebet
16-20 - 10$ freebet

Format:
You will submit the answers in the same way as you do for the BSFL.
It will be a separate form, and it will be measured in a separate spreadsheet.
It is easier to handle it like that - because the competition will span across multiple weeks.
The deadline for submission will be 2h before every game and you'll be in charge of checking the deadlines yourselves.

Small print:
Some rules might still be tweaked a bit before the start of the CL promo. If that happens, we'll let you know.

How to join:
Just answer the questions in our form and you are in automatically provided you are allowed to participate. Check the rules. Form with first bunch of questions will be live tomorrow. They are not time dependent and we would appreciate if you fill it up as soon as possible so we can judge number of participants more correctly.

Spreadsheet with your answers can be found here.

Any VAR ?

[LTU_btc]

I submitted my answers today. It will be very interesting to follow Newcastle in Champions league after 20 years. But group that they got doesn't really helps to answer questions. It's best example of death group where all teams have decent chances to reach next round.
Do I understand correct that this promo is for everyone or it's just for BSFL participants?

[slackovic]

I submitted my answers. I thought that we will have a new set of questions before every game in the group stage. Judging by the questions I guess this will be the only questions to answer and that we will have another set of questions only if Newcastle qualifies for the knockout stage of the UCL, right? And if they finish third and qualify for the EUFA Europa League the competition ends, right?

[cryptofrka]

Any VAR ?

Yep, 1 in the groups, additional 1 if they qualify.

Do I understand correct that this promo is for everyone or it's just for BSFL participants?

It's for people that are a part of Sportsbet's pools. Somebody from F1 pool can still join.
We will partially use this promo to introduce these people to the BSFL concept.

This is the first round of 7 guaranteed rounds.
Consider this round as 'general', and there will be a new round for each of their CL group games.
If they progress, we continue - if not, the competition is over - EL will not be a part of it.

OK, I understand. So we will have the result of other rounds before this one. That's not what we are used to in the BSFL but we will manage somehow :-) I like this kind of competitions much more than the pools so I hope that you and Sportsbet will organize more competitions like this.

There will be a separate sheet that will calculate total points - but yeah, the answers from this round will be settled near the end of the competition.
Other rounds will be settled immediately, but we feel that how they perform in general is also interesting to bet on so we inserted a round like this as well.

exactly 20 years ago, Newcastle didn't play CL

it was because Milivoje Cirkovic scored from penalty spot to secure first CL group season for Partizan Belgrade, on St. James park, at 27 avgust 2003 (still vivid memories on our celebration)

probably top achievement for our club so far

but I expect Newcastle to pass this group, TBH
didn't submit my answers, but will during weekend

Yeah, I had to say ''more than 20 years ago'' as it was 2002-03 season. When I started to follow football, I was surprised that there is quite big Newcastle fans community in my country. It was strange that people select to support them instead of Liverpool, MU or Arsenal. But it's probably from these old good times when Alan Shearer played for Newcastle.

Hey guys, I am sure most of you heard about BSFL but some of you are still not playing it. If you were curious to see how it looks now you have an opportunity to test it with bit more relaxed rules and less obligations. Still the experience will be similar to main thing.

Cro2 is proud to present our new Newcastle promo which will follow their path trough Champions League. All members of this pool are free to enter so go check the prizes and fill out the form with first set of questions. No need to sign up, just give us your bitcointalk username in the form and you are in. Any questions can go in our usual BSFL discussion thread. Please don't ask them here

Ok awesome, I submitted both the application in the application thread for BSFL and also the form for this promo.

[cryptofrka]

We have added the spreadsheet and the questions, you'll always be able to find them in the 2nd post of the thread.
We'll also post the questions in the BSFL thread.

We are horrible with timezones, so it's up to you to track the deadlines. The deadline for submitting will always be 2h before the start of the game.

[Trofo]

Questions for first Newcastle game are up. Deadline is same as for group round questions, both must be answered 2 hours before the game against Milan.
Only 26 people signed up so far, what are you waiting for

Nice and generous initiative once again from Trofo and cryptofrka.
+1

I hope everyone is joined into Bitcointalk's current CL prediction pool from buwaytress as well. 

Unfortunately, my time is far too limited to participate here, too, but as usual I'll chip in some Merit for Trofo and cryptofrka because organizing and maintaining all of this is a lot of work, I believe.
And I'll wish good luck and much fun to all participants here, of course.

somehow missed this answer
yeah, that would be more suitable
didn't meant to say anything bad, just used a great opportunity to revive good memories, and probably best CL result for Partizan so far

even created a some kind of meme at that time (it was a MySpace era, before Facebook, Twitter and other services), with #AjmoMilivoje (meaning let's go Milivoje, do it), that was used whenever you had to do something hard

[Omikifuse]

Here is the topic

[notblox1]

Trofo and cryptofrka I cant see my name in spreadsheet and I am sure I sent all answers on time day before.
When I visit question link it is showing that I already responded.
Do you know whats up with that?
