Why don't you just put as many as you can in now? That way you won't miss any games and can always change them when you get chance. You could even put the entire season's in if you really wanted. Missing a few round doesn't really matter either. I get next to zero points in a few rounds last season and still came second overall.
Yeah, I'm going to be looking to sit down, and do as many as possible as I won't have too much time on my hands for about 3 weeks in October. I managed to watch some of the weekend games though, and wanted to judge their performances on my future predictions. I'm not really that bothered by missing a few rounds.

Even if you just put in a 1-1 for draw for every game the entire season if you really can't be bothered - last season there were a good few weeks where 1-1 for everything would have got you a three exact results and a bunch more "close" results.

Well, I didn't have chance to do any predictions the last round. But, I'm still quietly confident 
Nah, I'm just in it for the fun as I'll probably miss a few rounds in the future too.

Just checked the leaderboard, I’m in 8th with 13.0 points. Congrats to hilarious, great effort with 18.5 points, setting a great pace in round 1.
I thought I’d be higher than 8th, got 2 or 3 exact scores & missed a couple by 1 goal. Just shows how tough it’ll be this season to win a prize.
It’s a marathon not a sprint though bitches, I’m not going anywhere

I thought I would do quite well,,, like hilarious pointed out usually we can see some surprising results in the very first game, for example, new teams and new coaches, or just players rusty from holiday, like Mourinho likes to say some players holiday too much! I did quite okay for my own standards, and I put in some careful scores but ended up that the big teams won as expected not even 1 surprise draw.
Marathon for sure, not a sprint. I want to make up for last pool in World Cup to sit for 2 days in the winning spots and lose on last two days, was very painful

^ Why not, it would be good practice for next season. 
You ok with betting small? Maybe 20 bucks?
Anyway, the rest can join too if they want and make the pool winner take all...? What do you think?
I'll make an account later when I get back home.

Btw, how's the fantasy league? I'm gonna make an account later and join up. That should be fun too. Anybody wanna make a small bet on who ends higher in fantasy? I don't have experience playing it. Played some free ones in the past, but never really took them serious.
What, between the two of us? Only me joined. I joined another league but don't know how long I'll carry on with it, so not interested in putting money on it this season.

God damn you scored nicely hilarious, congrats on the yellow cap! I'm really loving this and I'm super happy I decided to not sit on the sidelines any longer.
Off topic: Does Superbru offer these pools for CL as well, and will you either way have a CL pool running here on bitcointalk?

Yes and yes. I'll get one going soon.
Nice! Playing these pools are really helping me avoid gambling too much while still having a stake in the matches. Lol.

I have a feeling City will again be champions and Liverpool will be the only team able to keep up and hopefully made it interesting.
I'd love so see Liverpool take it this year. Never been a big Liverpool fan, partly because of my burning hatred of Steven Gerrard, but my unyielding love for Klopp has overcome that. If any manager deserves the trophy, it's him.
I'll be behind Liverpool this season. I think the title will be between them and City, but who knows what will happen.
Wow our captain really took his A game with him. I thought I had a good chance of winning the yellow cap but I went for a "shock" predictions for the remaining 2 games. I thought surely this week 1 must have at least 1 upset. Like Trofo said, this week was rather "easy", just a matter of who predict exact scores. Results all went the favorites' way, no big upsets over the 10 games.
A lot of teams failed to score, which is not what I expected too. Normally many goals and both sides scoring in English games lately.

There's usually always some shockers on the first round as teams are shaky coming back from the break and gelling with new players etc and you've got no recent for to judge either team on, and so making correct predictions is often difficult, but I guess this year it's the anomaly. 0-0 games are where you can gain a lot of points. People seem to rarely choose them (or even draws). I tend to pick them when I think there's two poor teams that will cancel each other out and it worked on the Southampton vs Burnley game but not on a couple of others.

And the hunt begins....
I like to keep close to the top and then make surprise push in the few last game weeks to take the top spot
This was actually very easy game week to predict. There was almost no surprises and certainly no big surprises. I am thinking it will be much harder in the following weeks. I have a feeling City will again be champions and Liverpool will be the only team able to keep up and hopefully made it interesting.

Congrats, you killing it. I got the spoon, whatever that means. Not even on the last place.
MoSalah is and they have the spoon from my view. Is that you?

Well three correct scores for me and the bastard of the week with the first yellow cap 
. I narrowly missed out on four other correct scores by one goal, two of those games screwing me over in the last few minutes with a late goal. Imagine getting seven correct scores. Would have got me a cash prize of £500. I suspect missing out on a lot of games just by one goal will be quite common though and that's why it's so difficult to do so. Aiminbg for 5 correct scores from one round though to get myself a proper yellow cap .
