Thanks for the hosting us, I've joined the new pool and I've put my predictions in already.

We should have goals for sure in United and Salzburg games right? Both to score for me in those two. Not sure about rest but maybe Sevilla to win at home and than adding some tennis from Paris Masters or eSports to get to that 5x multi and boost/insurance.

That didn't take long to happen in the Salzburg game as Wolfsburg just took the lead again, going early into the 2nd half. I will agree with that choice for Man Utd's game as well, given their recent history defensively, but I'm more tempted by 2.42 Odds for Man Utd to win the match, I think Man Utd would get all 3 points tonight as well.

OK friends. So I'm sending out the invite to the new Pool which starts counting from this week's Matchday 4 Group stage. You just need to accept OR search for "adenstag" in the pool search. I'll accept if you're already part of this UCL pool.

Thanks for putting this up, just getting ready to put in my predictions and place some multi ticket bets in the same go.

I joined, thanks for sponsoring the pool! I hope I will continue with the good performance, I'm 1st in the unpaid version.

Some difficult games to predict today and tomorrow, I went with a lot of weaker teams not scoring. Somehow I feel I won't be having a great start here Grin

Everyone good?

Of course everyone good, I can't think of any reason anyone would not be good with a short competition that requires almost no effort with only 10 people no fee and free prizes for 3 places.

Thank you for always doing your part for the small community on the forum. What happened to Bitcoinnews.com? I tried visiting but it is gone already.

OK friends. So I'm sending out the invite to the new Pool which starts counting from this week's Matchday 4 Group stage. You just need to accept OR search for "adenstag" in the pool search. I'll accept if you're already part of this UCL pool.

Just look on your Invitations (left menu) and accept. Even if you accept late, you'll get points counted.

Since it's very few games but I do want to reward those who bothered playing, these are the suggested prizes:

1st place: 2 mbtc
2nd place: 1.5 mbtc
3rd place: 1 mbtc

No need escrow, just trust me haha. I'll send to an address/wallet of your choice at UCL final.

I know it's not exactly a lot of money but just something small to keep the camaraderie in here until we figure out how to do next round better, okay? And no promises but I might have a new project that can do a proper sponsorship as before. Not that I can compete with the big guns but I've loved every moment of these small pools, and want to continue to be part of their history Wink

Everyone good?

Hey all. So I guess not enough people seem to be interested in paying the fee to continue this round.

I count 3 people only who also don't mind the "rest of season" idea to start a new pool (I actually already created it) to only start counting points beginning from Game Week 4 of Group Stage.

That's still 10 games to go, so it's not bad.

No fee, and a small prize from me at the end. It won't be as much exposure as I'd have hoped so it will just be a token gift from me to the winner (maybe 2 winners).

If there's no cost, I'm sure it looks like there will be a lot of users willing to join. But if the cost is needed, I think it's okay too as long as it's still relatively cheap and affordable. Grin

But by the way, if the fee isn't needed it might be better to just go ahead and not need a new one, because it's just for fun, right. Different if a fee is required, then obviously it must have a new one and not continue the current pool.

Apologies for the tip, @CasperBGD . I know they say never bet against Ronaldo, but I was betting against United. Watched most of the game and I've to say Atalanta need to be more mature, because Rashford came close twice in the 1st half too. But ask me again and I'd bet on them again. United just seem to start so badly every match, and then rely on coming back in 2nd half -- which they failed to do against Leicester.

what to say, it was a turnover from Manchester, and odds on Atalanta were firing up after Rashford goal, as if they are not leading 1:2 at that moment, so cash-out was not an option for me

nevertheless, it was a really bad round from me in the pool, and I am glad to start-over from next week
Sevilla brought me down, Salzburg as well, and Villareal, did not catch any of these that could go on any side, and favorites results were far from catching exact scores, spooned in the end

Was it because United played like shit or were they just so lucky to get 3 goals in second half?

I'm fine with either starting afresh, or to continue... but I must say that the intention of almost everyone who joined already was to pay a small fee to begin with, so starting afresh wouldn't be fair, but I might not be objective enough since I'm currently topping the chart, but if reverse where the case my opinion would've remained the same.

@Buwaytress thanks for always sponsoring...

I think it's quite clear over the past seasons that there are less participant in the UCL Pool, but I think an earlier announcement and collection of fee (on or at least before the competition kickoffs) would be a bit advantageous.

I'll wait to see more reactions from the weekend. I'm happy to always continue sponsoring. The irony is my business was doing much better in the old days, in the bear markets too, rather than in this year and the rally! I'd love to put up more money too, but it seems a bit silly to do with fewer participants. So let's do our best next season, I'm definitely putting up more money if we have more players, and I would like to sponsor with a new project.

Atalanta to win tonight, by the way. This is the surest thing tonight.

congrats on a tip
even with Ronaldo on the pitch, United cannot make something meaningful, and Atalanta has 0:2 in Manchester
surprised by this result, that is for sure, and with Villareal up at the moment, they are looking on fourth place in the group

Barcelona took points against Dynamo, and make life easier before second part of group stage, while Bayern is still 0:0 in Lisbon

It would have been a great upset. Was it because United played like shit or were they just so lucky to get 3 goals in second half? And how many times already has Ronaldo saved Real Madrid/Juventus/Portugal/Man United at the last minutes? That guy is the easiest "buy to deliver" striker you can buy for the last 15 years. Messi fan here but I enjoy Ronaldo too.

Thank god for Barca win!!

That was quite a come back from Man Utd, I didn't really see that coming.. I saw that as an already lost match, funny how the only reason why I can't bet against in these sort of games is because of the presence of Ronaldo and that literally paid off.

My Main Bang of the night was the 2.0+ Odds for Juventus against Zenit and the high flying Bayern Munich at 1.5 against Benfica, what could have been more generous from the bookie ??!

If we decide to start fresh, no need for Snapshot, we will just make a new pool which starts from next game week and allow only current participants to join. One minute to set up and Superbru does all the work as usual.

I don't think it makes sense to make fresh start in the middle of group stage.

I think it makes sense, but that's because I have low points now. I admit if we don't start fresh, then I won't continue to play, since I won't have any chance at all

So I agree with Trofo, if buwaytress wants to sponsor and seems is the only one willing, he should do what he wants.

I can suggest the top 5 in the current group have additional points to start though.

1-1.5
2-1
3-1
4-0.5
5.0.5

OK just to catch up again, I've set up a pool now to start scoring only from Round 4 that starts Nov2. I'll wait til the weekend to see again, but will send the invites after Sunday.

No fee. Only inviting those active in current pool. Prizes will be small but hey, free is free right? And we do need to get seriously early for next season if we want to see this pool succeed =D

Everyone cool? It's not like anyone's gonna want to pay the fee for this season, right?

I definitely wasn't expecting Porto to win 1-0 against Milan.I guess that Milan still doesn't have the consistent performance they need.After all,they are on the best teams in the history of UEFA tournaments.
Anyway,I expect Barcelona,Bayern,Juventus and Chelsea to win their matches today.Seems like a safe bet.
Lille-Sevilla and Young boys-Villarreal seem like unpredictable games,but I bet that the Spanish teams will win.
Wofsburg-RB Saltsburg is weird.I'm not a big fan of German and Austrian football,but I assume that RB Saltsburg will win this game.

that will deal with number of participants, but points from previous rounds will stay (not sure if there is a possibility to start from this round in Superbru)?

When you are creating the pool after competition started you can choose from which gameweek it will start. At least you could do that last season when I have done it for competition with my mates. We played on monthly basis as excuse for meeting to drink up the rewards. Season is way too long for us Grin

nevertheless, I am ok with any decision that has majority and that will probably be in line with what @buwaytress suggest, because he is willing to sponsor it

regarding round, did not check the table, but I presume that there is just a few exact scores with this many goals in the round, and where was without many goals, result was not in favorite favour, with Milan being with 0 points after three rounds

Slava Ukraini!

What a round in Champions league so far. Ajax trashing Borussia, PSG comeback with 2 Messi goals including Panenka style penalty. And that Ronaldinho smile in the stands

. And what a game in Madrid between Atleti and LFC.
Amazing to watch, but shitty round for me in terms of points.
Probably it's too late to start collecting money now, especially for these who are in 2nd part of table. But I accept whatever decision you'll make.

What do you guys think? Snapshot after this game week and start fresh (as I don't think anyone wants to pay)? I'll still put a small tip/prize on the rest of the season, for no fee, but only for those who've signed up already.

I am ok with whatever we decide. Since you are the only one willing to put some sponsorship money (as far as I know) my vote goes to whatever you want to do
