Guys, are you ready for the final round? This time it will all be over today because all the games are scheduled to start at the same time. I hope that I can defend the 1st place and win this pool. It would be a first win for me in any of the competitions on the forum.

Congratulations on your win. I had no idea you'd never won anything, have you been playing long already? Quite a feat, I would say, especially when you only really came into the equation midway into the season (if I am recalling it correctly). Enjoy the prize, it's enough to pay for every pool for the next 10 seasons!

KTChampions, well, I did all I could. We who both fought hard for 1st and 2nd end up 3rd and 4th. Consolation prize for me. And I'll always remember the missed pick that cost me 4 points!

Yes, forgotten picks are remembered. For example, I forgot about two free bets this season (2x50 dollars) and I won't forget them anytime soon, as if they were a million dollars, haha.
By the way, this round was very good for those who wanted to play against the favorites, there were a lot of unexpected results (Mönchegladbach thrashes Hoffenheim, what?!), but no one took advantage of it.
Overall, I'm happy - in three seasons I have gold, silver, and bronze 

Congratulations to everyone (we're fighting for respect, not prizes). Thank you, cygan!

[LTU_btc]

Congrats, @slackovic! Very well deserved. Can't believe that we ended with same number of points 3 weeks in a row. And this week we were really awful - just 4 points, very similar predictions. But offcourse, it worked in favor for you.
Don't know when it will be next time when I will have real chance to become winner of any league pool, but I'm still happy with my season - it's my best result in Bundesliga pool so far.

And I'll always remember the missed pick that cost me 4 points!

Oh yeah, this season once I missed whole 3:30 PM slot, potentially I lost lot of points. And unlike Superbru, Kicktip don't have default picks. Don't know about you guys, but probably I never had 100% submit rate in any pools so far.

[Harkorede]

Congratulations to @slackovic for winning the first position and to all the winners, I saw @buwaytress finding himself in the 4th spot as well, congratulations mate!

I was buried deep into the mid of the table after showing some promising run before the end of the first half of the season, that proves consistency is always required, see you all next season!

[slackovic]

Thank you guys! Yes, I was around the middle of the table pretty much until around the middle of the season. Then I slowly started climbing up and thing got interesting for me. Then happened that weekend when I got outc9mes of all the games correct and earned 29 points. That weekend propelled me to the first place where I stayed until the end.

Yes, interestingly this is the only pool that I have been a part of this season and I managed to win

[cygan]

the final matchday has now been played and we had three matchday winners with 1r0n1c, bullrun2024bro and Fantomaz!
our new pool champion is slackovic, who, with 463 points and a five-point lead over LTU_btc, can celebrate his very first title in his first season - congratulations!!! 
KTChampions, buwaytress and morvillz7z also secured the important spots 3 through 5. to all the winners - you totally earned it and it was super exciting right up until the end!!!
Unknown01 managed to rack up the most matchday (yellow cap) wins, but (as you can see) that doesn’t mean much...
slackovic, LTU_btc, KTChampions, buwaytress and morvillz7z please send me your BTC addresses via pm so i can send you your winnings. i'll close this thread only once everything is finalized!
just noticed that slackovic’s 463 points now also set the new record for a single pool season... the previous record was 454 points in the 23/24 season, set by morvillz7z!

[slackovic]

Oh wow! I didn't realize that I managed to score a new record, event though I was so bad in this last round. I can't believe that I got only two outcomes correct and earned only four points. I'm happy that LTU_btc was also as bad as me so I kept my advantage.

Thanks for organising the competition cygan!

EDIT: Prize received! Thank you!

[buwaytress]

Thank you cygan for organising this one. One must appreciate even winning 4th/5th place as that returns the entry fee, and means a "free" one for the next haha.

Curiously, most of us got 20 points from the bonus section of kicktipp. I tried something a little different with the relegation teams and got it right with Wolfsburg, but was wrong with Mainz... St Pauli was so obvious I should have stuck with them, so ended up with 2/3 correct, same as practically everyone else haha.

On that note, no one got Bayer right for the first one to sack their manager! (A really funny quirk of Kicktipp to ask that question to me haha)

Oh yeah, this season once I missed whole 3:30 PM slot, potentially I lost lot of points. And unlike Superbru, Kicktip don't have default picks. Don't know about you guys, but probably I never had 100% submit rate in any pools so far.

I miss something every season in all pools except Champions League (but that's because I have to set the questions haha, and I submit mine right after to test). Think I've even missed BSFL, but my worst record is in FPL, where I miss whole weeks several times throughout a season and it hurts badly there because missing the deadline means missing making even one change.

But in this pool, I really appreciate the tags. I missed only one game this whole season. In an ideal world, there are no chores and daily emergencies, and then you can make all picks so the reminders really aren't an annoyance =)

Wow, Slackovic did it brutally. LTU_btc broke the previous record, but it wasn't enough for first place.
Overall, it's been a good season. I thought I was guessing worse than before, but it turns out I was keeping up the good work and there were just those who were even more accurate to break the records.
I'll send you my address in a couple of minutes. It's the same one I used to make the fee, but naturally, I'll duplicate it as needed.

Congrats to slackovic and fully deserved. Best overall round with insane 29 points, best overall score in a single season.
Now go and spend it all on the World Cup promos

Missed 3 rounds (played only 1 game of R17) but would not mean much to me anyway - I'd still be far from prizes.

Take a rest fellas and see you next season. Create a German team for the world Cup promo!

[bullrun2024bro]

Well played. Grats bro.

[Saint-loup]

Congrats to the champion and to the other winners.
A bit sad to miss the top 5 for 2 or 3 points but this season has been very hard.

Good catch, I missed that he got 29 points in one round. That is insane! 5 correct results and none of the games wrong. That round literally won him the season. @slackovic you showed some balls there going with a 1-1 for the Stuttgart - Bremen game. Bremen was messing up badly for most of the time and Stuttgart had so much on the line, I would have never thought Bremen could steal a point there. Congrats!

Thanks! I don't really remember how and why I went with the results I did, but it worked. Sometimes I don't do much research for certain games and just go with a hunch. Maybe that game was one of those "on a hunch" games

Anyway, it was really a pleasure to be a part of this pool and I will surely enter again in the new season.
