good luck today everyone. Top 3 in our pool is still possible for at least 10 users i think, although most of us are gonna need those at the top of the leaderboard to mess up their last prediction tonight

man, the amount of ppl who missed out on the free bets competitions is crazy, not sure if they didn't know or simply didn't care. Either way, bump in prizes for the last competiton is pretty hefty (thank u Steve and SB), let's see if they show up tonight. Btw, great job organizing every competition, Trofo 👍

They will allow fans at least for the final, with the Copa this year, you simply don't know anything until the very last minute. lol

Looking forward to hearing the argentines chanting the famous shit on brazil song (lyrics at the beginning "brazil tells me how it feels, to have your daddy at home" and later it goes "maradona is bigger than pelé"...lovely lol) OR fans talking shit the players like this dude (in spanish obviously, the guy is rambling about how the players have BMW's, sleep in 5 star hotels and have $3k boots, but ultimately can't play for shit 😂)

I am thinking about it for sure, if it were 2 hours earlier I would have watched for sure.

Screw that last minute Colombia goal. I had a draw in our pool and expected big things, now I am out of the paid places for the first since beginning with just one game to go on.

Working on challenges now, should be up in half an hour tops.

^ There's bound to be fans at the final, whether they let them in or not haha! Funny thing now I'm reading about a LOT of Brazilians apparently rooting for Argentina -- normally it's so strange, much as I have so many complaints against my country, can't see myself not supporting it. I do get it though, a lot of anger from Brazilians towards their own country, hosting Copa with all the problems going on right now.

10% ain't much but it's better than nothing, certainly better than fox1 artificial crowd noises. Grin

Rio to allow some spectators at Copa America soccer final

Rio de Janeiro officials will limit attendance at the Copa America soccer final between Brazil and Argentina at the Maracana on Saturday to 6,500 spectators, or 10% of the famed stadium's capacity, the mayor's office said on Friday.

I think I have more than enough for regular competition now, Argentina flavoured one will be tougher to organize. I will probably just resort to repeat some markets. For example total corners in regular and Argentina corners in other one.

The lack of dust on the account seems to me a rather strange phenomenon, given that for some reason it seemed to me that all the participants in our pool are regulars at Sportsbet. In any case, it doesn't matter ... because the thought occurred to me that because the amount is not significant, the winning bet in the end may turn out to be an absolutely absurd combination. Returning to the discussion ... what about "How the 1st goal will be scored" + "Number of corners in the first half" + "Both Teams To Score In The Second Half" + something that buwaytress suggested.

Maybe we should go for most free kick won , goalkeeper saves, total number of passes, and add the usual most cards and most corner kicks.

Guys, why don't we go the BetBuilder route?^[screenshot] The winner is determined by the highest won odds (let's say the bet should consist of at least three of any combinations). I don't think that it is a problem for each of us to place a bet, say, in the amount of 0.02 mBTC ^{[this is the minimum allowed rate]}, especially considering that even with a relatively small coefficient, you can win (if the combinations of other participants do not work).

I don't like it since it will probably reveal a lot in terms what results we are expecting and that is last game in our superbru pool. And I am quite sure half of the people in the pool don't have money on their sportsbet accounts Cheesy

Our group is already very small so I will keep it without additional demands as it was announced in the beginning. Somebody would have felt hard done for sure.

Hey guys, i have some great news. Sportsbet has allocated me significant boost for the last mini competition. We are talking 10 mBTC cash plus another 10 mBTC free bets. There will be 2 competitions, one as usual and one Argentina flavoured since Steve is a big supporter. I am open to ideas. For now I intend to have 2 or 3 winners per competition. Today is the day for brainstorming and competition will be live tomorrow morning.

@tomahawk9, counting on at least you to give some feedback but hope to hear from the others as well. We have to be careful to avoid 1x2, under/over goals and correct score markets because of our pool.

Be sure to check the other thread tomorrow.

Amazing news thanks SB and you Trofo!.

I think maybe shots on target for teams? or total shot?
red card in the match or not?

Colombia 19/10 a good pick tonight? Could be 2/1 with a boost later on? Or am I just fantasising. 3rd placed games usually very exciting, at least in my memory. Nothing to lose left =)

Another suggestion that could be used:
1st to get yellow card
1st to get corner
1st to use sub
1st to offside
Last to offisde
Last to use sub
Last to get yellow card
Last to get corner

Or, make it a race: 1st to 3 corners, 2 yellow, 2 subs, 2 offsides.

With a tiebreaker of pick minute of 1st corner/card?

great news, would like to suggest a few competitions, that are more "roulette"
for example - kick-off (coin-toss winner), first shot on target, first shot off-target, first card, first corner, first substitution, or regarding players - Fabinho to start the match, Di Maria to start the match

some of these are easy to check, and could be interesting
I am on the bottom in the pool, and do not have preference between Brazil and Argentina, so not that much interested in final score, just good football

4th final for Messi. Imagine if he wins his first major trophy with the NT against no other than Brazil in Maracana Stadium...Imagine Shocked

are they going to allow ppl into the stadiums? anyone knows?

I doubt that they will allow spectators to attend game. It's sad because they would make this final even more epic. Imagine Brazil - Argentina in full Maracana.
It's a bit sad that game will be played so late on Sunday - it's not best time for us in Europe. But I think it's not big deal to sacrifice sleep for such game.
Personally, I hope that Messi finally will win trophy with national team. If he will lose again, it would be huge hit for him.

1. ^ I've never really paid attention, but maybe one aspect could be teams with most passes completed? I don't know how quickly or easily Copa stats on individuals can be gained but maybe not a good idea if stats-collecting isn't fast.

2. But if it's common markets, then we should go for HT FT results, Extra Time yes? Penalties yes? That's 4 options easy to say yes/no to.

3. Bonus can be Penalty Shootout score prediction (if PK happens).

Boring I know but hey.

Your first 2 ideas are a bust mate

Passes completed is something I am not sure where to check so I am skipping it. I will stick to markets that are easy to check. Your second idea must be avoided since it is a last game and our pool is really close. Every point is important and those choices would give up way too much data to competition

Your third idea looks like fun, I just don't know how to implement it but will think about it and try to include it in some form.

Quote from: tomahawk9 on July 07, 2021, 07:38:08 AM

couple of suggestions: '1st team to get X number of corners', 'most shots on target, messi or neymar?'. Btw, there will be extra time in the final, do you want to include it in the last competition?

These are easy to implement so they will be part of competition most likely.

Messi taking a major national trophy on Maracana in Brazil, that would be something for sure and something which will motivate Brazilians even more. Not that they need extra motivation when playing Copa final against Argentina Wink

If you guys have some idea for our final competition, please share. Otherwise I will go with something like corners & cards plus maybe some player markets. Definitely nothing that can give hints towards superbru prediction.

Brazil and Argentina in the final, I do not have preference for the winner

Only final that could have happened. Both Brazil and Argentina showed their quality from the beginning while other favourites like Uruguay played poor. Colombia was ok but they missed so many chances during this competition, a bit strange with the profile of strikers they have.

Colombia had their chances, could even say were better on the pitch, but Argentina booked the ticket for final with Brazil, on a penalty shot-out
it is hard to win it two times in a row, so Colombia used their card with Uruguay

nevertheless, value bet proved to be good, and match came as a draw

Brazil and Argentina in the final, I do not have preference for the winner

Nevertheless we will see in the final of the classic confrontation between Brazil and Argentina. Perhaps this is the best option that could happen, it will attract the attention of a large number of people. In this final I see the perk of Brazil, although both teams are of a very high level and each equally deserves to win.
