Saudi Fantasy League when? Cheesy

~snip

I think that MLS fantasy would be better choice, and it is playing now, when nothing else is playing, so there is no rest at all

but with small amount of people on this pool, chances to cash in is quite high though compare to the all other pools

yeah, this pool had low number of participants, but that could change next year as well, FPL has more users in total than Superbru, so potential is there to plenty of members
one just had to adjust to rules that FPL has, and that is difficult part for me, due to playing Sorare that has completely different rules

this year I'll probably drop out of other pools to focus on Fantasy (if all goes well it's quite possible we'll see a few sponsors). Cheesy

Seems to me that you already have potential sponsors for us Tongue

. Well I'd love to try next season on fantasy as well. I think I was doing decently okay except for the fact that I messed up big time on my players before the season start ( also some on mid season iirc ) but with small amount of people on this pool, chances to cash in is quite high though compare to the all other pools

I intend to join every available pool next season, including leagues i don't normally watch/follow. I'm also making some major changes to my FPL way of doing things. I won't rest until i start producing Top10k finishes (wishful thinking). Lol

In addition to the regular pools and fantasy leagues, we have AFCON, Copa America, EURO, EURO Fantasy, and Nations League in 2024...a busy year and a half ahead of us. #no-life Grin

Actually I missed CL Fantasy last year and would probably love to play it this year. Same goes for EURO Fantasy. They are not the same, much more casual but fun nevertheless. Not sure if it is possible to get sponsors for everything but if nobody does I will make leagues in all of them and we can play just for buy ins. 2 mBTC buy in winner takes all is also hell of a fun for competitions like EURO.

While I still suck at La Liga despite being Barcelona fan Huh

Coincidence ? I don't think so... I'll only just participate in as many pool as I can possibly monitor and submit my picks weekly for, imo, that'd increase my chances of finishing well in one of them.

I've cashed in all the pools I've been in, but I only want to play in the premier league pool and FPL for the reason that I'll have a little more time for myself.

Yes, I got a decent amount of pleasure from participating in all the pools, but in the current realities, it's hard for me to be torn between working here on the forum, between working in real life, volunteering and personal life.

I totally agree with you... this year I'll probably drop out of other pools to focus on Fantasy (if all goes well it's quite possible we'll see a few sponsors). Cheesy

I'll remain here as well, but I wouldn't be dropping out of any major pool either...

If there is anything I've noticed about most of the pools I participate, the more attention and I put into it, the more horrible I perform at it, this concluded season was the first time I'll fall out of a prize slot in the Uefa Champions League after 4 years or thereabout, and the first in the PL in the last few season as well, but these were my major focus all season long including the FPL, I go as far as having a draft potential picks from Monday and watch the trends at least once to twice daily, but that didn't save me from performing woefully, and there I go doing rather well in Bundesliga and Serie A, both languages from which I don't understand a single word from... While I still suck at La Liga despite being Barcelona fan Huh

Coincidence ? I don't think so... I'll only just participate in as many pool as I can possibly monitor and submit my picks weekly for, imo, that'd increase my chances of finishing well in one of them.

I will play too, but it is far from favorite pool
and when I say that, I think that point system is a bit commercialized, so only goals/assist/clean sheets adds up, and that brings occasional viewers and people that stick until the season in similar position

it would be better when more statistics would add-up to final score, but I know that it would not have that massive participant number in that case, because it would require more time to play/research
nevertheless, learned from some mistakes this season, will try to find some easy-to-maintain mode next season for better results

Nobody that plays first Fantasy season will ever win it but we won't tell them that Cool

Well this is a fact confirmed and Im having alot of problem playing this first time. I thought I had good composition for the week already then somehow I forgot about the other factors in game such as managers potentially resting players for UCL and such but well its a good first time playing fantasy and I kinda enjoy it to some extend

The thing that I hate the most would be when I picked Haaland as my captain then he ended up not scoring anything Roll Eyes

When Trofo is talking about Winning it, I suppose the runner ups doesn’t count because, that too could be winning a share in the pool price and some of us came quite close. I guess the in experience and negligence got the better of me. You know, having all these chips and not knowing when to use them or how to use them but again, you guys were great and taught hard lessons in a very disturbing way as this was a competition none the less.

Come next season, I hope to be a lot more competition, see most of the old participants as much as new participants. Let’s see how far we’ve come.

Maybe you misunderstand my post. What I meant to say is that there is almost no chance for a person playing his first fantasy season to do well in it. It wasn't a comment about my rank, I ended as runner up but this was my 7th season I think. Fantasy is a game where you simply have to learn some stuff on your own skin before becoming good at it. Any given week is mostly pure luck, but that evens up over the season and good decisions will always come on top. When I say top, I mean top 500K finish every season almost guaranteed. Then it is a matter of good or bad season if you get higher up to top 100k or even something like 20k.
Here is my full FPL history with this account, my first learning season was done on another one where I lost logins and stopped playing at some point.

2022/23    274,909    2,471
2021/22    118,554    2,492
2020/21    738,837    2,227
2019/20    454,377    2,167
2018/19    24,427    2,346
2017/18    31,224    2,270
2016/17    254,249    2,095

Any chance that we might have a new season of FPL here?

I sort of missed the one for last season because It was too late for me to join, but I don't want to miss any upcoming one in case it's there. Fantasy league is much more fun to me than the weekly score predictions on superbru that I even sometimes forget/fail to enter for weeks Grin

How about some clubtalk dudes from SB? the last world cup fantasy participants were close to 200 although it was a free entry Sad

I have a bunch of the guys there and I even ported them to BSFL competition, I never pointed them here or even talked about this thread. Same way I never talked here about what I am doing with Fantasy for Sportsbet. That was from respect for both sponsors. Now I guess since the league finished it can be considered as free thread until new season starts

At least I am thinking about my pools in that way.

Gonna talk with icopress on telegram before next season for sure to see how we can elevate FPL on forum even more. I don't care who sponsors it but I want biggest possible rewards since Fantasy has become my favorite "sport prediction" game if you can call it that way.

No way we are getting that ever in Fantasy, it is sort of small niche where bitcointalk user and fantasy lover circles overlap. I am thinking we have everybody already in but maybe we can get some cannon fodder willing to join for bigger rewards and then donating their own sign up fee as well

Congratulations to all the winners! The battle for 5th place was really epic!

~~Igebotz~~, ~~morvillz7z~~, vd309, Trofo: Please PM me your Bitcoin address so that I can send you your well-deserved prize.

In a month I will start looking for sponsorships for the next season.

I will try to do everything possible so that the prize money is at least twice as much (ideally it would be 0.3 - 0.4 btc).

Payment received...... Thanks.

Is there going to be some kind of design medal on the OP for the league winner and Cup winner ? please don't make it boring.

Increasing the Prize pool means increasing the sign up fees right? No problem but please make arrangement for the cup as well.

Congratulations to the winners, well done everyone! I admit I still have some ways to go, but personally, am pleased I made some progress vs last season -- I intend to continue and to make a better effort. I know, I know, it takes commitment, will, etc. I'll do my best to make sure you guys have more of a contest from me heh.

@Igebotz not quite sabi ball, but not bad at all Wink

Yeah i no really sabi ball on this one but don't you think that a first timer getting 5th and winning the mini cup deserves some vacation on Seychelles island with some ladies in bikini? Grin

I didn't realize I was going to make it this big when I started the season, chasing Harko for 5th place till after the world cup, I guess I was around 40 points away, I can't remember, and I continued pushing until I got it. This should send a clear message to the top 4 guys that Igebot will hunt them down next season.
