Something like that. Eventually it would be up to you and Trofo to make sure that you stay on the right side of the fine line between trick and justified confusion.

It's a nice to have in my opinion, but would probably cause a lot of discussions if someone doesn't catch it in the middle of the thread here.
The problem is nobody is reading the OP on a regular basis. We update it every week with results and maybe every few weeks with some minor rules like these that you just mentioned. If you are playing BSFL from day 1, I am quite sure you are never looking at the first post where all those rules are stated. Maybe some of you glimpse promotion/relegation tables and rewards but that is about it.

I respond to inquiries in this thread and in my chat with quotes from the OP almost on weekly basis. I see it same as T&C in bookies, nobody reads them until the decision goes against their favorable outcome  Grin Still important to have it to back us up just in those situations.

Well, I ask because I didn't know that, and we always talk about men's sports, but these are the Olympic Games and the pattern of women and men is normal. I didn't know about that 100% rule, I say 95%, but it's okay.

Thanks

Yeah, always ask - whatever it is. I'm glad you did because we didn't officially state it anywhere - we'll put it inside the rules as well.
When it's women, we always state it's women - otherwise assume it's men.

I actually wanted to make a trap in this round for you, the question I wanted to ask was: Will Spain win the Olympic gold in football?
I'm sure most of you would forget about their women's team, and if men didn't win but women did it would be accepted.

It is just the 2nd round with a lot of new players so we didn't do it this time, but you know it is our plan to sometimes have tricks like these.

I like the idea, but I would literally put it down as a rule for next season or whenever you guys plan to introduce it.
1) If it is not explicitly stated it's women, assume it's men. 2) There can be trick questions.

Question 9 does not state whether it is men or women, due to the schedule the men's final (volleyball) is Saturday August 10 at 7am, and the women's final on Sunday at 7am, I chose men, if so I do not use VAR, the same for handball and water polo, in the first the final is on Sunday 7am.(men)

Whenever it is not specified, it's men. 95%+ of all the BSFL questions are about male sport, and will remain so.

Just unfortunate to see first week we already have walkovers coming from the lower leagues which doesn't make a competitive league...hope WO come my way for easy points Tongue

2 missing out of 62 players, with a lot of them being new, is actually a good start. That's 97% of successful submissions.
famososMuertos was a bit late, so basically just 1 person not submitting.

I dont know how to check anything for LMS and how to count points for that Sad

There is an extra sheet in the spreadsheet that says 'LMS' Grin

For regular questions - you win a point for every correct pick
For H2H questions - you win a point for having the best result across all Divisions.

_____________________________________________

The question no. 10 was a bit unclear. It said:

10.   Name the top 5 countries in most Gold medals won during the 2024 Olympic games. Please use the following format: China, USA, Australia, Great Britain, France. This is a H2H question.

We want them to be in the correct order, so the question has been changed a bit to the following:

10. Name the top 5 countries in most Gold medals won during the 2024 Olympic games. They have to be in order, from most to least gold medals won. Please use the following format: China, USA, Australia, Great Britain, France. This is a H2H question.

Only 2 people submitted already, Hhampuz as always and Koal-84.
Tagging you guys here, you have a free VAR for this question if you need to change your picks.

What an amazing comeback for Porto after they started from Sporting with losing 3-0 they managed to turn result around and win 3-4 in extra time  Shocked
I had great weekend with many correct answers, Djokovic won the Olympic gold medal, and I won 7:3 in first BSFL round.
Season is just getting started so my team needs to continue winning points.

After the today's match, are there still those who think Djokovic was actually injured?  Wink
I know that probably increased odds on him to win a lot, and you dont see that often with him so I was very happy Smiley

Everything has been graded in the spreadsheet, it was a shitload of work with 3 H2H questions and LMS so please recheck your scores and points and let us know if something doesn't seem right.
The results are unofficial until tomorrow anyway, we will do another round of checks too.

Looking at how the results have come in for game week 1, it's safe to say Division 2 had the best performance by far... followed by Division 1 and the rest follow...

Just unfortunate to see first week we already have walkovers coming from the lower leagues which doesn't make a competitive league...hope WO come my way for easy points Tongue


What a let off!

Nice comeback @BitcoinHunt3r , I thought I had you not until the football came in to ruin my winning chances, and not forgetting the Joker "Djokovic" who destroyed Alcaraz in straight sets..well played Cool

I get a point from a draw. But with the taste of victory because it was against a smart player like Slakovic
 I hope that I continue to achieve special points, which will be somewhat clear after the return of the major football leagues. Bc I am not good in the other sports

I didn't poat here, but I was following our match trough the spreadsheet. We were constantly tied so I guess it's only fair that it end with a draw. But with winning 6 points and getting only a draw it leaves a bad taste. But anyway, congrats on a good game!

There was quite a few questions that gathered a lot of interest around them. I know I would never have watched 800m freestyle for women if there wasn't BSFL.

Yeah, always great to see this Grin
Now you all know Ledecky's equal with Latynina as the only women with 9 Olympic gold medals.

What a crazy game, i was not following it at all because i know i lose the poin on that question, but damn what a rain of goals.

I win my game in this round with a super game also 6-5 against Harkorede, super game.
It was an interesting first round in BSFL for sure. There was quite a few questions that gathered a lot of interest around them. I know I would never have watched 800m freestyle for women if there wasn't BSFL.

I felt that Alcaraz lost the match in the 1st set. You simply have to take your chances when you have them, and he got 0/8 break point conversion in the 1st set.
He outplayed Đoković but Novak found the way to claim that set, and after that masterfully used the nervousness that was felt in some of the points.

Fantastic mental and tactical performance from Đoković, I'm really happy that he won gold. It is well deserved.

______________________________________

What the hell is happening with the Supercup games we selected? 7 goals so far in the PSV - Feyenoord game.
Now we have 8th goal from the PSV through de Jong who scored his second of the game. Cheesy

Last minute of the game 8 goals and 9 cards what a start of the new season in Dutch League.

"Simply" better than Alcaraz is the perfect word to use.... Djokovic does play theatrics to be honest, I remember vividly a final or was it semi final that Djokovic played against Alcaraz and he was "I guess" pretending to be have trouble breathing and whatnot, and with how naive Alcaraz can be let is guard down in that game, and Djokovic came from a sets and I think 2 break downs to win the game, I remember seeing Alcaraz cry that day tbh and I really felt like Djokovic preyed on Alcaraz emotions or naivety or perhaps extremely kind, respectful and diplomatic sportsmanship.


I struggle to watch the match, the streaming service was extremely fluctuating from end so I just had to follow it from Flashscore.... The Odds were literally giveaway for Djokovic well over 3+ Odds, I'd have taken it on any day and to win a set was @ ~1.68.
They don't call Djokovic "the joker" for nothing Grin

This lad can be a joy to watch with his tricks and humour all in one, and afaik people do get their money's worth when they go to watch his matches which is a win win Cool

Btw from how you have described the Alcaraz- Djovokic encounter, I can only think Alca cares too much for him to be easily manipulated as the Joker did...otherwise Djovokic was on a different level today when it came to tiebreaks, but had this being a 3 setter I think the outcome could have been different Tongue

Congratulations to the gold medalist Djokovic "the joker"🥇

After the today's match, are there still those who think Djokovic was actually injured?  Wink

Anyway thanks Nole (and bookies for those nice odds), I made some money out of your fantastic performance today. Well deserved win, he was simply better than Alcaraz today.

Thanks for the comment, I was about to post the same question. It was an insane game and despite the fact that Alcaraz lost it, what the hell was his defense like? That wasn't human. Djokovic scored more critical points, but some of the balls that Alcaraz defended, I thought I can't trust my eyes. You could see in Djokovic's face the same facial expressions that he caused his opponents to have for so many years. Pure desperation and the question how the heck Alcaraz got to the balls he fired at him. But well, Djokovic now won it all and I think Alcaraz will certainly get his chances again.

But the question still is as you said @Rikafip: what the hell was Djokovic talking about when he said he is super concerned because his knee is so painful and he can barely move... But he has always been an actor. Same thing when he lost the first set and looked like he had no chance that day. After the first set: 6-1 6-1, game over.
