Check your coin privilege
@Cloudbet, I'd recommend mentioning in your post that brand new accounts or newbies can't participate, if you don't want to get flooded with alt accounts trying to climb their way on top of the vine Cheesy

Nice pick for the first game though, I'll have to consult more than just myself for this one and maybe make my pick in a few days.

Arsenal 1 - 2 Man. Utd.

I forgot to make it clear, but this competition is just for predicting the winner of each match (or a draw if that's your prediction), yours will count as a prediction for Man Utd to win unless you want to change your mind before the deadline  Smiley

Morning all, sorry for the delay in announcing this week's match - it's been a bit of a mad Monday morning here at Cloudbet towers  Grin

Week 1 - FA Cup Soccer!

Arsenal v Manchester Utd @ 19:55, Friday 25th January


The deadline to get your entries in for the first week is Friday 25th January at 19:00 UTC so don't forget to make your predictions before then!

I'll be back soon to discuss the match with tips from our sportsbook team! Smiley

Have a great day!

Morning all!

Fun format! Cheesy Its about to go down in the next 9 weeks.

Few questions :

Players split the pot of the Cloud they LOSE on, winners move on to next stage.

What if a single player manages to stay high enough? For example by the time we reach the 6th week, only one managed to make it, shouldnt he win the pool every time he wins? Or will it go unclaimed?


Honestly I hadn't thought about this, so thanks for bringing it up! I think the best way to do it is if there's one player left, and they manage to keep advancing, then they will receive all of the pot for the Cloud they finish on. Any funds that go unclaimed will be used for a raffle or added to next month's competition prize pool.

I'm open to suggestions though Smiley

Players start on Cloud 1 and each successful prediction will move them up.

Does this mean any player can re-start from Cloud 1 once they get disqualified if there are still more weeks ahead? They wont be able to reach the max prize but they are allowed to play again right?


Unfortunately once you are out, then you are out for good  Shocked 

I might play with the format for future competitions (adding buybacks?), but I wanted to trial this as a take on the 'last man standing' predictor competitions I've seen in other places.


What format will the games be? Do we need to predict the score or just the winner? Cheesy Because one of these two is downright impossible.

Thanks for all the giveaways! Your competition formats are the most fun Ive seen done in here.


Unless we get high up the ladder with a large number of people still in, I'll likely stick to a simple Win/loss format to keep it simple (or win/loss/draw for relevant spots like soccer)


So the safety bet/safety net can be used only once during the 9-week long event?

Correct! My advice would be to save it for a week that you are completely unsure of the result, like a match with very close odds or a sport you aren't too familiar with.


Any other questions then please let me know! As I said this is a new format I'm trialing so i'm half-expecting there to be a few issues along the way, so if you spot anything then please drop me a message here or via PM.

I'll be announcing the first sporting event on Monday, but here's a hint: We'll be kicking things off with a cup tie!  Wink

Thanks, and have a great weekend!

Ronnie @ Cloudbet

I bet it would be either Chelsea - Tottenham or Arsenal - Man Utd  Wink

The sporting event for the first round will be announced on Monday 21st January

The deadline for entries will close on Saturday 19th January, so check back before then to make your prediction!
could you explain the above Huh


Yep, that's just me being stupid - good spot, i'll change it now!  Grin


I have a few questions, are these prizes only available after 9 weeks and does this mean if i make it to cloud 2 or any other cloud and and fail to progress...a safety bet will allow me to start off from where i left?

The prizes will be paid out after each week. You get paid from the pot you fail to progress from.

And what happens if i make it to cloud three and stop playing still the end of the competition will i be among the players claiming this pot??

and lastly all who fail to progress from cloud 1 automatically qualify for the shared prize? IF this is the case isnt 250 spins a little shy as the probability for people to be knocked out in their first try is high Roll Eyes

If you stop playing you will 'lose' on the week you don't make a prediction, and will be paid out from that week's prize pot.

If you fail to progress from Cloud 1 you will split that pool of free spins.

I did have some trouble balancing the prize pools for the different stages so it's definitely up for debate, but i'm hoping that we see more people dropping out near the top, rather than on the first level.

Let me know if anything is unclear or you have any other questions, I'm very happy to answer  Smiley

Thanks,
