24 people have paid but only 19 have signed up the superbru site so far (or joined the actual league). Don't forget to sign up there and put your scores in before Friday/Saturday. Check your PMs for details how to join the league, but I think you can join leagues at any point so just make sure your scores are submitted at least so you don't miss points.

Four users are still yet to pay:

ralle14
BitSat
Aleister Crowley
painwendir

Please pay ASAP so I can sort the prizes out.

CL is gonna start in a couple of months or so.  Should we be starting to promote that too?  I'm pretty sure at least 10 players in this pool will also join the CL one.

I'm cutting back on the sports bets after a bad season, so I'm gonna need these pools to at least make the games more interesting.  I don't bet that much per match, but the losses do stack up.  Lol.

I'll get a Champions League one going when this one has started. Give it a week or something so people can see whether they like this one and the superbru site.

Anyone here using the Superbru application? I'd like to use it for the whole season as it might be very easy to make predictions anytime anywhere using my mobile phone, but it seems that it is not really good application based on the available reviews at playstore. If anyone of you are using the app, let me know your experience. Thanks

Seems fine for me, but just test it out yourself. Sometimes reviews are skewed because they're using a different version of the app to you, or on a phone that can't handle it or they've since released a patch that fixes whatever errors they were having. Regardless, if it's bad just use the website. You can input your selections for the entire season if you wanted and as long as you don't lock them in you can change them at any point up until kick off so just do that if you're worried about the reliability of the app or whatever.

I've not used the app (I generally install as few apps as possible due to privacy concerns), but their website has a mobile version that is well laid out and pretty easy to navigate.

Welcome to all, good to see the board start filling up. We've got past winners, past recordbreakers, but everyone starts with a clean slate, just like in the EPL!

I think what I'll really like about this new system is the extra points for those "close scores". Before, you could risk predicting a really high scoring game and yet get nothing out of it. I remember in the WC pool too, predicting 4-0 and the game won 3-0 would get you fewer points than a guy who predicted a 1-2 opposite result (just because of correct number of goals, regardless if outcome was correct). This new system seems a little bit better, since outcome still has to be correct for you to get the "close" points. Of course there'll be complaints impossible to give a fair system that suits everyone but yeah, it'll feel better to take risks for this new game.

That's what I like about this one. I've been shafted so many times in the last few minutes by a late goal so it would be nice to get some consolation points for that. I think it would be a nice additional feature if you could be able to set your own points scoring system. I think a correct score should be something like 50 points with a correct outcome 10 or 20. A close score could get you 10 or 5 or something. It's obviously much harder to pick a correct score so that should be reflected in the points awarded and by more than just 20 as it is now. It not that difficult picking correct outcomes and getting the score exactly right is fairly difficult.

Seems like 11 people have made picks so far for the first match and we're currently at 16 participants. Nice to see so much hype on this thread right now, can't wait to see how things turn out. I expect I won't make it too high in the leaderboards, but I'll try my best and this'll be fun for sure. Smiley

I also just joined and have made pick for the first match, hopefully I will not make mistakes again as at the beginning of last season. Lol!
I didn't expect to get yellow cap here, but if I could get a premier league jersey it would make me happy too! Cheesy

I just joined your pool with same username as here and yes I am still the holder of more single correct score results from last round. I did make up to 5 within a week. Let's see if I get a Yellow Cap this year  Grin

So we can now confirm that you cannot see other players' picks until after you have finalized your own picks (and can no longer change them), making cheating impossible.

Also, you can make your predictions for the entire season now if you wanted - so if you know you are going to be away/at work/tight for time/etc one week, you can make your predictions way in advance.

13 people signed up so far.

I came 3rd in our PL pool last season (StephenCurry 1st & hilarious 2nd).
I came 2nd in our WC pool (Trofo was 1st, can’t remember who was 3rd).

I’m going to try my damn best to win this one but I guess there’s a chance I won’t even be top 5 this time. You can’t get lucky in every pool you enter.

I was number 2 for a day or two in the WC pool and ended up being 3rd, so yeah that was me, right behind you Wink

I have no experience at all actually playing in pools, or even anything like this, since most of my friends don't even bet, or even watch football, so yes, very much looking forward to this one. It is nice to know the pot got bigger thanks to Cloudbet, and they also have a competition going on for August it seems. So I should say this forum has made my gambling life so much more interactive.

Yeah definitely, kudos to Cloudbet it’s a great gesture by them. I know they will gain custom from a lot of us bit they do well any way, they didn’t have to.

We have a great bunch of guys here & it’s really fun competing with good, friendly, honest people.

Good luck to everybody but obviously not as much luck as me, hopefully Cheesy

I don't know. I can't see anyone signed up yet, but it looks like they may only show up after this first round. Is there anyway to check? Can anyone confirm they signed up already?

Nobody signed then. You can see participants immediately if you click on LEAGUES and then select Bitcointalk league(or however you named it), you should at least see yourself. You can't see squads of other players until transfer deadline.

I will probably skip it then due to the reasons mentioned in previous post.

That's probably fine then. Do you have to lock them in for them to be submitted or is that just to see everyone elses scores?

Yeah, like Trofo says. Locking in just prevents you from changing after seeing someone else's picks. You don't have to lock-in scores as long as they are saved (they show up under each pick as "Saved" in green). I tested this for some other games already and just entering picks, making sure they're saved, gets your points.

How many participants in fantasy group? I am contemplating joining under real name since I already have an account or making another one (which is major pain in the ass). If there is very little participants I will probably just skip it.

Not sure about fantasy but we can see our own pool has 9 participants already (including myself, just joined): https://www.superbru.com/premierleague_predictor/pool.php?p=11910214#tab=leaderboard

Only 88 players from my country, that can't be right. But hilarious is our captain in our pool. Sounds about right Wink

Temporary forum vacation
Hello everyone, I accepted the invitation to join the league pool already, I guess I was one of the early ones Smiley I am still trying to get myself used to the superbur management system, I joined 2 other pools in there, one just with all the hotspurs fans, over 2,500 of them, I have a feeling for them this season Wink

Too bad no betting option inside, or I will lose a lot more money Wink

They should lock automatically after the deadline passes. At least it was like that previous season. I usually lock them manually as soon as I enter them. That way I am not in temptation to change them until the last minute.


Ah. Ok. I might just leave mine without locking then just in case I want to change them at the last minute, though I usually don't, but injuries/changes to the squad can influence that.

Just to clarify and confirm, yes, you can choose to lock your picks (optional). Doing so will let you see other people's picks, but you can't change yours anyway, so I see no problem in this at all. Since you choose to see if you want, and only those who lock picks can see each other's picks. I've actually put in 3 weeks' worth of picks, but it seems you can put everything in for the entire weeks ahead so would recommend doing this now, so even if you miss your picks, they're there for changing any time. You get 15 "free picks" if you forget too, so even if matches are postponed or changed, you're well covered.
