My intuition (it's such a nice word, it's more like a random coinflip for me when it comes to F1) is that alonso will miss out by a whisker -- he should be Top 5, but not a podium finish.
Now whether or not I translate that into my BSFL picks is another coinflip.
Anyway, don't worry CLS63, lesson learnt, it's really funny about this fee thing isn't it? It really is not a big deal, and most of us have some form of BTC income from the forum itself, it's always a much lower fee than what most weeklies pay out. Anyway, moving on.

Alonso is still going to make top 3 I think, and that is how I answered my BSFL, top tip for casperBGD I don't mind to share because who knows maybe I'm lying

thanks for a tip
honestly, not sure about Alonso, I am glad to see him on podium after a while, and Aston Martin is good one this one, even Stroll was good in Bahrain
but will decide on that on a flip, odds suggest that Alonso should finish on podium, and my intuition says that he will not
all depends on Ferrari, if they drive as expected, it is hard to expect that Alonso will finish above both of them, and Red Bull is a bit better of all
Yes we are very similar to the last year, all depends on how reliable can be Ferrari and how dumb in term of decissions they do, also again Mercedes not solving their main problems but always at one step to solve.
I hope this race we can see some more drama in terms of pitstop strategy and help from partners in the track, some undercuts or overcuts.

And he left after getting a wooden spoon too. I mean wtf. Lol. The question is would he have left if he got the yellow cap?
Anyway, it's ok. I think next time CLS should give a firm warning that here in the gambling section, our word is our bond. It's prolly the last real section of the forum left where people know what they're talking about. The rest mostly has a lot of people blabbering with stuff that we just don't know if they really say what they believe.
Actually I thought it was clear therefore I must say that I'm quite surprised about this topic. We didn't have any problem last year as we had a quite small pool. But I assume there can be this kind of problems sometimes when the number of people increases. I apologise from everyone for all the problems happened. Believe me I didn't have any bad intention. I just wanted to create an F1 pool as it would be entertaining and I created the thread after Sportsbet.io accepted being the sponsor, that's all.

I'm confused by safety car rules, so if there is a high possibility of it then I think I will remove some of my favorite picks and reinsert 2 or 3 names I would never even put into the top 10

After my wooden spoon 🥄 moment from the Bahrain Grand Prix, clearly this was a sign I had quite a lot going on at the moment and didnt have my head in the game , & unfortunately will be sitting this one out, thanks for the opportunity team motorsport. All the best to all.
Frankly I'm disappointed after this decision you have made. Because the reason why we indicated the last payment date as March 17 was not for you to test out the pool. It was for making it easy for you to make the payment. I wonder what the pool participants are thinking about this.
If somebody can't pay I tell them to PM me and then I loan the entry fee. That way the person always pays since they feel obliged and if they don't I can always red tag them.
Here you didn't specifically wrote that whoever joins must pay so I feel red tagging is a bit too much. It was implied of course. It is a dick move but nothing you can really do about it. Kick woodie out of the pool and that is it. Put him on your private black list and demand money upfront from him if similar situation presents itself.

Hello everyone. 24 out of 28 people who wanted to join the pool have made payment so far. There are only 4 people left who haven't. I just wanted to make a small reminder even though there is still time until March 17.

...//...::
That is the point, you say so yourself March 17. I think that just as I send DM to invite me, you can also send this collection note, something like this could be the way for the reminder, and in any case, whoever doesn't pay doesn't get paid. I find this reminder out of place.I don't share anything new as the members who have made payment and haven't are clearly seen in the first post already.If we come to the reason why I wrote it to the thread instead of PM, I wanted the members who use bot to get notification also.Lastly still I couldn't understand why you reacted to it like that. I already said in the first message that it was a small reminder.

This week we have race, so lets pump the thread.
This circuit its completly diferent to Bahrein so we can expect changes in the performance of the teams, also this one its a "urban circuit", and for all of those who doesnt know what that means, its a circuit in the streets of the city, the problem with this kind of circuits its you dont have so much escapes, and you always have the barrier near to you so, you make a mistake and you crash against the barrier.
In term of the pools this only say one thing, HIGH posibilities of Safety Car, so this can destroy all kind of predictions.

I just tried to create an entertaining organization here and trusted people's goodwill. But it looks like I made a mistake. I'm apologizing every other participant because of this.
We have already spoken privately about accepting late entry fees, but no need to worry about one bad apple in the bunch.The other 28 people don't need him nor his 2 mbtc to have a fun F1 season pool.
March 10, 2023, 03:55:03 PM
I absolutely agree. From now on I will do the thing you have said. I just tried to create an entertaining organization here and trusted people's goodwill. But it looks like I made a mistake. I'm apologizing every other participant because of this. Despite all of this I also think it would be an exaggerated action to give red tag because of only this.
No need to apologize, you are doing something for the community, it was just an advice how to make it easier for you in the future. This is your only pool so it isn't that bad but if you are running more things that will put you in some tricky situations almost every week and then you have to learn to anticipate participants behavior and do a little more effort upfront instead of more effort later. People can also forget to pay, and you have to remind them over PM or do who knows what. It is far more likely somebody will forget to pay participation fee than personal debt. Just the way we are wired.
We learn best on our own skin. I know I will never again give so generous rules to making bets as we we had during World Cup competition. Had to warn so many people and explain so many times and you would think that saying 0.5 mBTC bet on odds over 1.5 should be enough. Then you allow that people pay in other currencies and then you have to do exchange rates for half the tickets. Because most of them will not play a bet for 15$ like I would do, no they will play it for 10.46$ which may or may not be 0.5mBTC, or even worse do it in TRON and again right on the cent

That is a pool captain lesson for you CLS, there some good people in betting section but most are here to make the campaign posts and/or game as much contests as possible. That is why I try to avoid late entries as much as possible.
If somebody can't pay I tell them to PM me and then I loan the entry fee. That way the person always pays since they feel obliged and if they don't I can always red tag them.
Here you didn't specifically wrote that whoever joins must pay so I feel red tagging is a bit too much. It was implied of course. It is a dick move but nothing you can really do about it. Kick woodie out of the pool and that is it. Put him on your private black list and demand money upfront from him if similar situation presents itself.

Well everyone is free to decide for his own and take on the consequences thereafter.I won't judge you,anyone has his own reasons but you leave a bad taste here as it looks that now that you saw that you could not do well in the first race you are retiring.While you are enrolled in a signature campaign I think there would be no problems for you to send the fee and continue to have fun with us all.
Keep in mind that last season I was last for about 3-4 races and then I ended in the top three which was a prize spot level,I was just consistent as I kept coming 2nd or 3rd in most races so the first race does not mean anything and this year looks even more interesting the F1 season as yes Redbull dominates but all other teams are at the same level almost,so plenty of time to make good races,there are also tons of yellow caps for grabs which are equal to free bets and everyone has an equal chance to get it.Just my two cents on the matter.

I like a good challenge and something away from a pitch or court am definitely jumping on this one.
And I already see some familiar names signing up for the competition, hope their skill isn't as good as the other sports
Will get the sign up fee in before deadline day... reserve a spot for me cheers.

Bit of a bad move this, pal. CLS sent you the private link to join on Superbru. You had one bad race so now decide ‘I think I won’t pay’.
Not cool to be honest, I personally wouldn’t accept you in any future sportsbet.io pools or forum promotions. You’re just wasting peoples time and taking away the fun aspect of it.
March 10, 2023, 12:06:49 PM
Yes i think in the same way as you CLS, the spirit of moving the deadline to pay was for make easy the payment, not to try and go out (obviusly you are free to do that), but in addition a wooden spoon doesnt mean anything, and F1 its "easy" and also in the pool its more about luck than skills, because here more than in football always can happen thinks that can change all the output in the last laps, for example a Safety car, a bad pit stop, a penalty and a reliable problem in the cars, like in the last week Leclercs had.

What the fuck its talking about this bot?, i normally not reported this things but come on man, im seeing so much of them in the last times.
I hope only you confuse the thread, and i think it was that because i see some other post and seem on topic.
Well talking about F1, what a pain to have this weeks off.... and now we have so much races than ever, in the past was really hard to wait.
