    My players are really trying so far, we just need Chelsea to score a goal in tomorrow match and we will call it a rap.
So far this season my players have be pretty busy, because having to play every week in and out is tiring. Good to know that you're one of the few who believes in my team and we are doing our best not to let anyone who placed a bet on us down.

I am hoping for a five set game in this one, but the time is bad anyway for me so no way to watch it except for some highlights afterwards. I am not that impressed about the other semifinal although Zerev is a German player. The problem is that I can't recall the last time when he was able to show his best tennis for a whole tournament. It could be over just in the game against Medwedev, an easy 3-0 in the worst case. Good to know though that Medwedw's game is full of collapses at times, so they are two players of the same kind here.

Djokovic - Sinner is an interesting one. Anyone awaiting a surprise here?

Dont side bet against him please, he is bad luck 

Admit that you are just lazy 
I am trying to improve response of players for new BSFL season and you are shooting with a gun in your leg.
I never said we should move any conversation there, just make 1 or 2 notifications each week max.
End of story.

Try not to injure any of your players in Cup Chi20, you have important matches in League next week
Just so you should know I placed my bet on you in Cup against ulven.

You cocky dude! It always looks so easy until the end of the week arrives   and I'll let you hold on to that little glimpse of hope which actually is nothing but a façade imagination that's rather just in your head alone.

I sure won't be missing single minute of Djokovic vs Sinner, since that'd be the beginning of the real H2H, you might need to fasten your seat belt because it's going to be one hell of a ride  

I'm also using the Google Spreadsheets app because I use it for my work so it was natural for me to use it here. I don't think that there is a desktop view in the app, but it never bothered me that much. I spend enough time on computer to compare the results of my opponent. After I know what are our different answers, I just check occasionally on my phone and I never had problems with it.

yeah, using same approach too, just using Android platform
but process is the same, switch to desktop view, and you can see it all, as on desktop computer

didn't bother to check scores, although I submitted answers last minute, just to see how I will be going and stay in-form
Cup is obviously not my-cup-of-tea, same as Barca

@Harkorede we have all 6 different answers until the end

Not often that something like this happens to me, it's gonna be more exciting for sure. I just saw your answers, you can already send me the prize.

I do check and follow the results on my phone a lot of times too, more often than not, but the easiest way over the phone is just to download Google Spreadsheet App on your phone, it is available for both iOS and Android, that way you'll have an easier access to viewing the spreadsheet than on mobile browsers even if they should increase the space for each row and column it's still going to be an eyesore for mobile phones with the average iPhone or Android screens except for Tabs. Another advantage of the google spreadsheet app is that it will auto sync with the changes on the sheet and you'll have access to it on the go.

I'm making use of Samsung S22 ultra and if not now I didn't know it worked that way, just checked it and it's showing but then my Microsoft has been restored.  Thanks for the infor!

Just tried it, works well enough and real simple to do. Before somebody says they don't have iphone i tested it on android.

I was using that option before for some sites but never tried for our spreadsheet since info in it isn't usually time critical and I check it when I get back home.

I use the mobile (iPhone) and it is easy to check the answers, if you use the mobile version you cannot see the answers properly, but the trick is to use the desktop version on the mobile then you can see everything..

I told you I am fielding youth team. If it were first team players I would have the same answer as you, just like bookies predicted  Sabalenka is a top player but I have seen her break down so many times, I just have to try to play against her when their is good opportunity. Costed me a lot of money in the past.

These friendlies are perfect opportunity to try something a bit different and then incorporate into main games if proven successful. I also answered all the penalties yes, without even reading them.

A tricky one - we know it's a problem, yeah. The thing is that we don't know how much we need to widen the columns in order for them to be visible on phone.
Most of the columns in which you can't fully see the answer would have to be too wide compared to the others, which would then ruin the experience for those that check on PC.

How many of you check the spreadsheet on the phone? If it's only a few then we'll probably leave it as it is, but if it's a lot we'll find a way to show full answers without ruining the experience for others.

Oh wow! The fact that both Sabalenka and Zheng made it to the final means that I got my first point. Trofo decided to secure at least one point in the 10th question, but my risk payed off in the end. And that point means much as we have only three different answers if we are not counting penalty question. Now I just need Đoković to beat Sinner and lose 2 sets in that game. I think I will at least secure penalties with that result. I made a mistake when answering that Đoković will go to the final and lose 5 or more sets. I miscalculated how many games he has to play before the final.

I didn't expect Coco Gauff to win against Sabalenka to be honest, this one of the few times I let emotion cloud my Judgement rather than logic, I hate Tennis questions that have either Coco or Alcaraz, because I'll always go with them even when it's high illogical, just like how I'd never pick Barcelona to lose in these questions too, my biggest weak links 

  Is there any positive thing that can be done about this?

Japan is not leaving up to the expectations,  if they can concede a goal against Indonesia,  I now have doubts in them.

And Q.Zheng wins,  Chelsea over to you, don't let us down!

Damn, Coco, why you so easy lose? Now I've to hope Zheng overcomes an early setback. Can't make life too easy for Alex now can I?

Oh and forum only please. Telegram is hard to navigate for this kind of comp. Great chatting place and maybe even for work but BSFL works because of this forum format...


Japan's been great at scoring, but they've had some really crazy defensive blips too but Indonesia are perhaps a little stronger than bookies think. Malaysia should get hammered today though.

Those first few posts in this thread are great spirce of information. Everything we all need is written there and I think that it's a perfect way. I often check them at the end of a round to see who I'm up against in the next round, but also when I wanna see my standings on the table. All in all, I think the way you manage this competition is great and you don't need to change anything.

A Telegram group would kill this thread or it would be empty all the time if the conversation resumes here, so there's no point in having two channels of communication.

Regarding telegram discussion:
1. We can't run BSFL in any way that requires constant involvement from Sportsbet and we don't have admin rights in their telegram group

2. Only thing that gets us funding and keeps BSFL going is actually activity here on bitcointalk. Why would we shoot the project down in such effective way with providing another place to talk about it and take people away from here. It would be so much easier to give you the link for the competition on site where we are running it than to write reports here. But we are doing in this way to get people to come here.

3. One of points behind BSFL was to integrate people from clubhouse and bring them to bitcointalk. I think current setup is perfect for that.

4. We don't want to babysit players, we want engaged managers. If you aren't able to post answers in time when you have 48 hours to do so and always the same deadline - BSFL isn't for you. We had to do it like that in the beginning to create a core base of players but we don't want to send notifications and hold you by the hand all the time.

5. Everything we could ever pin on telegram is written in first 4 posts of this thread. Is checking them so much harder then reading pinned messages in telegram? I mean we loose time every aingle week to uodate them with all new info, if nobody uses them, what's the point
