Very good GW for me , I do soo good, but I think I wll finish on tge 2nd or the 3rd place,

[slackovic]

Another gameweek went down the drain because I didn't check out the lineups before the games started. Ekitike played only last 26 minutes of the Liverpool - Tottenham game and I had him as the captain! I really need to start checking out the lineups. But the problem is I'm very rarely at home on Sunday.
I collected 35 points, but I can still collect more as I have one more player to play in today's game.

Even when you check them, mistakes can happen. I checked line ups and still didn't catch that Henderson is missing in the Palace line up. It would have been another easy win for me if I did. Reserve keeper even got penalty save if the guy hit it on target. Didn't actually see it

OMG, I just realised that I also had Henderson. I rarely do any research on the goalkeepers as they are usually not part of a challenge. Now I saw that he got me 0 points because he didn't play. So, out of 6 players, I managed to f*ck up with two of them.

30 points at the count with still one more player to perform today. Sadly, this week will be without a prize. Picking up Semenyo was a bad play this round. I hoped the man would destroy West Ham’s defence, but he didn’t manage to pull off a dribble, let alone a goal.

[Woodie]

Liverpool assets another waste!!

The fact that I had Ekitike and forgot to remove him had I checked the starting lineup, I feel cheated by Slot and seeing them drop points gives me some sense of satisfaction because they took will feel the pain.. had it been boxing or UFC maybe the loser would have been going home without a tooth   But honestly Liverpool how do you drop points into that a fashion with a few minutes to go.. a relegation bound team

Thiago seems like a popular figure in this game week so was flop Ekitike

I guess I'm not alone on the Henderson pick, I also had him and maybe I might have missed it too even If I did check the lineup, but in my defense I missed 3 pm matches and I couldn't have thought Henderson would be on the bench. I don't think it would have projected me into a reason position anyways, I'm currently sitting on 47 points.

With Thiago as my captain and 24 points in the bag, won't be a terrible week after all.
Wirtz naturally the biggest mistake - simply need to stop selecting LFC players in both Fantasy pools.

Next one is for chance creation, let's see who goes rogue and doesn't captain Bruno Fernandes

[Trofo]

GW30 is over and here are the winners

1. 100$ - AmorimSZN - Mandem995 - 74 points
2. 50$ - Kokee - Kokee44 - 63 points (tie breaker Gordon better than Fernandes)
3. 30$ - FREE STERLING - 63 points
4. 20$ - Ekitika taka - cryptofrka - 62 points



Quite a bad GW for me, but still enough to win against Slissy at least: 6:!

Won't be a terrible week? You finished at the 4th place in the gameweek and you are currently placed 2nd in this event. I would count that as a great gameweek.

As for me, Thiago got me 12 more points yesterday (I didn't have him as the captain). It could have been a great gameweek if I didn't have Ekitike and Henderson, but it is what it is. I'm only six points away from the event reward so I will try my best to get more points in the next gameweek.

I have a question. We have this in the first post:

Rewards:
Every GW there is new challenge and then your team resets. Therefore, we have bigger rewards for each GW instead of end of season rewards.
Reward amount will be $200 – 300$ paid to your Epicbet account as locked bonus, total depending on number of players, 300 if we get to at least 25 players which should be no problem since there is no sign up fee. After discussing it in the thread we landed on reward split, 200 per GW and adding 100 from each GW to event.

Event - Archetypes - GW21-GW24 (400$)
1. 150$
2. 100$
3. 70$
4. 50$
5. 30$

That event is comprised of 4 game weeks (200$ per GW)
1. 100$
2. 50$
3. 30$
4. 20$

Do all events have the same rewards like the Archetypes event had? If yes, maybe the post should only say something like "Event rewards" and "Game week rewards".

All GW have same rewards and every GW we put 100$ towards the event. So if the event is 4GW long it has same rewards, if it isn't it has bigger or smaller rewards. Will update it later for this one we are currently running.

Above bonuses are now already paid.


Event - The Dependables - GW 29 - GW 31 (300$)
1. 120$
2. 80$
3. 50$
4. 30$
5. 20$

Oh, I didn't actually keep track of how long each event is. I thought that all events were four weeks long. I don't think that you need to update the first post for each event. Just write something like you wrote above. I think a text like this would be enough for everyone to understand, without you having to update the post for each event:

"For events, each week of the event adds $100 to the prize pool. The top five players in the event are rewarded. If the event lasts three weeks, the prize pool is $300. If it lasts four weeks, the prize pool is $400."

I think they are done monthly, so this month only 3GW, and event has 3GS. Updated above post and OP

Damn another loss for me! Wtf what was I thinking about with Maguire on my team hahah😂 i had no choice to pick Damsgaard when i l know you had Thiago i knew this will be a loss for me if Damsgaard dont score some goals..

Trofo-Slissy 6-1

Yeah, Thiago saved it. If he scored 2 points, would have been really bad.
At the end it does look good but I was dancing on the edge there for quite a bit.

Trofo-Slissy 6-1

This is looking ugly, bro. Fortuntely for you - the most you can lose is an additional 450$

[paco92x]

54 points this week. I can't say it's good, but I basically managed to get those points with only three players. Ekitike, Semenyo, and Ballard pretty much gave me nothing. Onward to the next round,it will be a challenge to pick the team since the options are slightly reduced—we won't have any players from Arsenal, City, Palace, or Wolves to choose from.

[cryptofrka]

Going a bit risky with this one, should be interesting. According to OPTA it seems only Bruno is close to 3 key passes per game, the rest of the players are around 2.

Not sure whether it makes sense to go for them instead of others with better fixtures. Gonna be an interesting round it seems.

[slackovic]

I see that the Man City vs. Crystal Palace match has been postponed. Does this mean their players won't get any points in this GW, and later, when the match is actually played, they'll get double points? Also, I see that the Wolves vs. Arsenal match was skipped (it wasn't in GW30, and it isn't in GW31 either).

I'm still getting the hang of this Fantasy Football stuff, so I have questions like this from time to time

Arsenal vs. Wolves is already played, that was that double GW when bunch of idiots like me captained Gabriel. All those 4 teams you mentioned have no fixture and will get 0 points in this week 31, ie. blank GW.

City vs. Palace will be a double in gw34 probably with some others that will blank in GW33.

Oh, right. I saw that the Arsenal vs. Wolves game has been played on 18th and I automatically thought that it was two days ago, when it was last month. I remember that double GW.

Thanks for the info!
