Do we need to post our bets in this topic before they are playing or after game is done???

It is really confusing to me at this point.

Thanks in advance.

Joust

Ideally, participants would always make a post in the competition thread with the bet ID (following the format in the OP) as soon as possible, after the bet was placed in the site - not only in the interest of transparency, but also to keep the competition interesting for those following it (and also, to allow them to follow the tips).

Also, just to clarify, we will create (and announce) a new thread later on today for the purpose of the participants posting their bets - that won't be done in this thread.

What it's live tomorrow? I thought you wrote next Sunday at first? Cool

The Game of Tips is near.

I don't see it say tomorrow anywhere. Shows Sunday only in the post right above you. I might be interested. Can you explain about the 5% rule a little more ?

The competition is going LIVE this Sunday noon UTC (23 August)

It's tomorrow.

Yes, the competition starts this Sunday (which, depending on your time zone, is already tomorrow).

The 5% rule refers to the Betting Rule 6 from the OP, although the recent changes also affect Betting Rule 5. The main purpose of these rules is to decrease the impact luck can have in the competition.

As such, according to Rule 6, when you place a bet that exceeds 5% of your current bankroll, for the purpose of the competition, we will register the bet as if it had been made with the maximum of 5% of your current bankroll, and your winnings will be adjusted accordingly. So, for example, if your current bankroll is 0.1 BTC, and you place and win a bet of 0.01 BTC (10% of your bankroll) at odds of 2, instead of the leaderboard registering you as having won those 0.02 BTC from the bet, it will show you as having won only 0.01 BTC (as if you had made a bet with only 5% of your bankroll).

Similarly, Betting Rule 5 states that the maximum odd a bet can have for the purpose of the competition is 10 - anything higher, say 10.5, will be rounded down to 10, and your winnings calculated as if the bet had been placed at those odds.

I hope that helps; but feel free to share any doubts that still remain.

Ok here is the update you have all been wating!

The competition is going LIVE this Sunday noon UTC (23 August)

Like I said before a new thread will be created for you to post your bets.
You can just place the bet link from directbet so it's not to much time consuming.

Remember to review all the rules until sunday, and post your doubts here.

Important:

First - There has been a small change to the 5% rule. You are no longer obliged to place only 5% of your competition bankroll, BUT everytime you pass that limit, your bet ammount will still be rounded down to 5% of your current bankroll. (this will also apply to the max odd @10)

This will make the betting process easier for you, as you can place your bets the way you normaly do, and the competition will still remain fair and skill based, as the luck factor is greatly decreased this way.

Second - The 20 participants limit has changed, and the competition is now in the late-registration process, and it will remain that way until August 30.

As you can see in the Original Post:
Users with a consistent tipster thread can join in the late registration process
User of rank Senior Member and above, can join in the late registration process

I will post a link to the new thread here after it is created.
Good luck to all!

Yes I know they can but the rules say that you must post your betslip and the status of your bet here . I just think that sometimes I may not be able to do it because of busy, that is why Im asking is it possible to sometimes not post the bet slip here. I may be able to do it in one time. Like I bet for monday - tuesday but post it all together at tuesday

It is true that everything will be tracked in the leaderboard, but we would really like you to post your bets here. Not just for transparancy but also because it will keep the competition more interesting for everyone that is just watching, since they can follow your picks etc

So please post your all of your bets in the new thread, even knowing that even if you don't, your bets will still count.

It's not even that time consuming! After you place you bets, you can just go to the bet status tab in directbet.eu, and copy the links of your bets to the forum. Everyone can follow that link and get all the data from your bet! (it's like 1 more minute of your time.)

Thank you for understanding.

Thanks for accepting me

@DirectBet, thanks for making this awesome tournament possible and this will engage me to use your gambling service for even a longer time!

---Registrations are now Over---

The last spot will be filled either by Joust or Coinbanker.
Like I said I want things to be fair so I will give some time for Joust to regularize his registration. If that does not happen Coinbanker will get the last spot.

As for the start of the competition, It will be annouced later today, and the new thread will be created.
For now, please review the rules for this competition so that everything runs well!

Good luck all!

Too bad that we cant start soon because there is EPL tomorrow and that is a good match to bet for. I want to ask that, is it possible to not post my pick here? sometimes I afraid that I wont have the time to post here but if we are betting at directbet then they can check it from our betting address isnt it?

Yes they can track your bets or you can proove it with your transactions to your bitcoin address.

@OP, i updated my bankroll, sorry for the delay

Regads,

Ok after a few thoughts, and because of the problem with this last registration we decided to allow a few more people in this first competition.

UPDATE: Registration Re-Open until later today (it will close when we announce the official date to take the competition live)

So until later today:
We will allow users that have a tipster thread in the forum to join
We will allow senior members and above, to join

ughh its sad that i was not fast enough to spot it, its a pity that i will not be able to participate in this competition i guess

Don't worry, if everything goes well, we will probably have more.

Let's start this today! I'm waiting to bet my first coupon. I gave it in my thread but I want to synchronize my thread and this competition.

I appreciate your enthusiasm! But as I'm sure you understand we will have to give proper time for all participants to prepare for the start of this competition, so it will never be today.

I already pm Joust asking him to provide the necessary information to make his registration valid. If he does not reply until the end of the day I'm afraid I will have to give the spot to Coinbanker to keep things fair and prevent further delays.

So at the end of the day we will announce the start of the competition which will probably be 2-3 days for now. I need to make sure everyone knows that this is starting so they don't miss it.
