Been out for a while, taking a break after that Bustadice long run, but I didn't want to miss out congratulating the winners.

So, Congratulations to all of you guys @casperBGD, @tomahawk9, @LTU_btc and @big_daddy. It was a long nonstop season Shocked
Honestly, at some points, I even missed entering some picks because I was caught off guard by the ever continuous game weeks. It was a hell of rollercoaster season Cheesy, so I would say it wasn't easy at all but you guys come out at the top.

Got all the addressees for both pools, combined my bulk tx files but waiting a bit for fees to drop down. Currently they are quite high, I am usually making transactions with one input and one output which is not that bad but this one has almost 15 inputs and 4 outputs. If anybody is an "expert" on bitcoin fees, feel free to advise the amount to use, otherwise I'll do some research tonight and then send the rewards. I am usually paying for confirmation inside 3 blocks but I fell like it would be better to save money on this one and let it confirm in couple of hours or even day. Usually the fees drop down in evening hours so....

Next season I forbid anyone from locking in picks and seeing my shitty picks to laugh at me, one should only laugh at me after everything is done and we see it publicly.

Question for the winners, did you make money betting on La Liga? I actually did this season and would make more if I was not so stubborn to keep betting on my team Barca:)

interesting question, I am usually betting just for fun, and do not count that as making money, but could say that, despite pool results, I have much more success in EPL than La liga (maybe that is just a bias)

on the other hand, pools are specific, because one usually do not bet on exact scores, and that is what makes most part of success in the pool, you can have all ten scores right, and someone else could have only four exact results to be better than you

here is my address - bc1qkgscpmuhpxz4ghehmm584vcdxpyy72jgcpsgcv

great season, hopefully we will all be there for next season pool and the participants number will be increased
as well, hopefully Valencia will be back into top4, and kick Sevilla out, but that could be too much to hope for at the moment

nevertheless, it is always good to see underdogs with the title, Atletico is not that far, as Lille in France, but more interesting than Bavarians taking the title each and every season, without competition

Superbru did not work at all for me the whole of yesterday for any pool. So I think we need to remind each other that picks should be entered way early especially on big days like final matchday. Not that I would benefit from changing anything of course just I was annoyed to not be able to check if I filled everything on all the pools:)

Congrats again everyone!

heh! looks like i was the party pooper this season LOL top 3 this year coulda finished with the exact same users in the exact same spots as last season, but here i am  Tongue
Just wanted to comment on that but you were faster Smiley Intruder alert!

Not over yet, I just need 6 points from last 2 games and @LTU_btc to get 0 points, easy peasy. But realistically I'll finish 4th in this pool and 4th in Serie A pool, when first 3 positions are paying - typical.

@casperBGD destroyed us this season, congrats man.

Edit: I am gonna have some beef with Superbru if Sevilla games ends as a draw. I wanted to change my prediction to 1:1 knowing LTU_btc will most probably have them to win and then the page was not working and we both have 2:0. I got so close...

@LTU I was JUST talking the same about David Villa early this morning over breakfast with some friends on phone:) It wasn't as bad as this I would say though, not as I remember, and definitely not to the same emotions as Suarez and especially because he was Messi's best friend in the team.

Congrats to all big daddy, tomahawk and of course casper, the true La Liga champion here:)

Personally for me it was good season, but not for my team definitely. I just checked that I got just 2 yellow caps during season, but managed to finnish 3rd So, it means that I was consistent enough during whole season even without high scoring rounds.
P.S. Don't forget that there is 2 meaningless games on Sunday remaining, which will close season.
So, Luis Suarez brings La Liga title for Atletico Madrid. Too old for Barcelona, but one of key players in Atletico.
the disrespect from FC Barcelona came back to bite them (heh!) in the arse. 4th best striker of the season with 20 goals, meanwhile, griezmann and dembele, 18 goals  Roll Eyes
And history repeated again today. After few years in Barcelona, David Villa wasn't needed for Barcelona anymore. So, he left to Atletico and on the same 201/14 season he won La Liga with Atletico.
, but managed to get La liga pool, back-to-back

congrats to tomahawk9 on second place, and third is still open?
I also think that bigdaddy won 20 points in a round, as highest score in the pool

Congrats, well deseved win! I think you were leading almost whole season. Also, from 312.5 points last season to 380.5 points this one is also impressiv thing. But it looks that we all improvedc, in comparison with last season. Did we got experts in La Liga, or it's just become more predictable Cheesy?
And yeah, I just checked, @bigdaddy is highest scorer this season. Congrat to him.
@casperBGD, I wish better next season for your Valencia, it's shame to see this team fighting for bottom table spots.

Congratulations! Winning the competition back to back show how conversant you're with the league... I've been terrible or let me say I lost interest way to early I was just playing for a chance at the best overall point in a round (lol).

Congratulations to other winners as well, watch your back for the upcoming season!

congrats to Atletico in the end, they deserved the title

regarding matches, both from one-to-other (2-1, 1-2) it does seem strange and corrupted, but does not have to be, did not had preference, so Atletico is fine in the end, although would be the same with Real as well
hopped that Huesca will stay in the end, but Elche came out to be a winner against Bilbao, Huesca had great performance against Valencia (great match to be honest), but finished goalless, no matter Huesca was great during the match (finished with 22 shots, 8 on goal), but nervous at the finish line, and no scoring

dropped top spot within Valencia fans in the last round

worst performance from Real madrid, even though they won, since January when the unbeaten run started. Meh! At least my ticket won



big_daddy has highest yellow cap so far with 20 points. I would appreciate if someone could double check this for me and confirm to make it official.
i woud verify it but the site is super slow right now and it still hasn't updated the leaderboard

So, Luis Suarez brings La Liga title for Atletico Madrid. Too old for Barcelona, but one of key players in Atletico. Really happy for him. Agree with thought above that it looked like nobody wants to become champions, but in 2nd half things changed a bit. After all, Atletico probably deserved most to win league, despite wasting such big lead
Barca managed to beat Eibar thanks to goal of Griezmann, but watching this game was just waste 2 hours of my life.
In the bottom, Elche got out of relegation zone after beating Athletic 2:0. Huesca and Valladolid relegate together with Eibar.

thing is that the fans are extremely pissed off at Ronaldo right now, they're saying he's the main responsible for the team's horrendous season, so some think that giving them a bonus now when Ronaldo, the manager and board of directors should've started fixing this situation months ago does look a bit unprofessional...About the criminal part, yeah, in Spain it can be considered a felony (corruption), i remember reading something about it a long time ago
That's good point. As owner of team, he is responsible for awful season and now offering such bonuses doesn't looks good.

So it seems nobody wants to be champion in La Liga, both Real and Atletico loosing after first 45 minutes. Then you have Barca getting destroyed in first half without creating a single chance or shot until the last minutes. There will be some strange results today it seems.

After the games finish, I'll post winners here. If you are among them post your addy as soon as possible so I can pay out the rewards.

Atletico Madrid have turned things around and they've just taken the lead, It's game over right ? I really wanted them to win the league they duly deserve it, they at some point led by as many as 13 points, but threw it all away within weeks. And guess who gave them the lead ? Luis Suarez!!! He was responsible for their late winning goal just last week against Osasuna as well.

^^I definitely don't see a problem of paying bonuses, but this should be in a player's contract, and it motivates them to perform better (performance bonus I see it).

But to suddenly announce additional incentives for playing on one game, imagine the possibility? Like what if, you got everyone on the team to contribute 10% of it to bribe one official or a linesman or someone to run on the field to disrupt a goal? Who can say easily no to 165k?

Crazy scenario and unlikely but when you put money in like this, it opens all kinds of doors.
