Things are not looking good for me in this round of BSFL, I made some mistakes and I was feeling sick the day when I answered questions
I am already down 2:1 and I think I lost in last two questions, but I hope to win more points in next few days, every point can count in the end for better position.
This designer derbies are always hard for me for some reason
This round feels like one couldn't have done much differently in order to reliably perform better.
- Rangers tie the game in minute 94'
- Lyles caught COVID on Monday
- Quite a back and forth Panathinaikos - Ajax game, but only one goal (different day, different goal count maybe)
Literally for every question there was an event that may or may not have had major impact on the final result and hence on our answers. Rangers equalizing gave the few who went with a draw a huge edge over the rest of us in regards to LMS and in their respective BSFL matches.
Those are the outcomes where you can't really say that going with a Kyiv win was the wrong decision although it seems that the draw wasn't undeserved. It was quite an even game.
I don't know whether Lyles performed badly all the time because of his infection, but I guess at that level a COVID infection would certainly impact performance.
The set of questions was difficult to research because for the gold medal count question, you would have to go through all the remaining events and then find out who is the favorite. From what I gathered, China could still have a chance due to team sports and some fighting disciplines I think whereas the US has all these athletics events in hand. I have no idea where this is heading.
