Surprisingly, I had Sweden to score over 0.5 since I didn't trust them enough to win, so I added the nasty 1.18 odd to my ticket and ruined the entire danm ticket. How the heck are Sweden two goals down at 60 minutes against Azerbaijan with a red card in the 50th minute and yet going on to score the third when I was expecting Sweden would at least get a consolation goal? At this rate, I can't put my trust in this squad. Never.

Got the cricket question right - I will put some mBTC on India to win Australia.

Geez, thats mean I lose a point on this


Rune managed to hold the 2nd set although that was actually pretty close. I really need Rune to win this round against Sinner otherwise Im going to lose another point because of this. 3rd set and Rune is catching up with Sinner. Anyway I just realized all games in Group A ended up with the 3rd set except for that one game from Sinner against Tsitsipas. I should have bet over 2.5 sets on all those games

Did not expect Bulgaria to comeback win draw this tie... not after playing most of the match a man down! I wasn't even surprised about Azerbaijan winning (incidentally making it 3-0 AFTER surviving red carded too) and Georgia almost beating Scotland -- I've been singing the praises of these Central Asia and Caucasus teams for a while, at the same time believing that Scandinavian football is regressing.

Meaningless to my round, though I'd have liked to build my goals scored count. You know what I learnt today? Dejan Kulusevski is... Swedish!

Oh, and India-Australia cricket final. Surprise...


Shhh, we already got away with it, don't remind people.

Jannik Sinner with a blistering first set of tennis, He's got it by a 6-2 score, going by the first set, this should be an easy wrap for the second set as well, and that would see Rune eliminated from the tournament, I can only hope Sinner doesn't get complacent just yet, the job is never over until it is over!

Despite being 1 question ahead of my opponent I'm not feeling myself safe for the remaining 2 questions at all. Especially about the Belgium question I think that I made a wrong decision. I hope that I can win 3 points after the Argentina-Uruguay match tonight. I was going to be much more comfortable in this round if I didn't lose to buwaytress.

There was one guy in division 1 who against made his pick against all odds! I know that jayce has taken riskier picks than this as it wasn't really impossible for Bulgaria to tie the game, but still he is the only one who got it right. It is a valuable point also in regards to potential free bets. Scoring when nobody else does is extra nice! I thought that Israel would really win with the -1.5 handicap. I am really curious about the upcoming tennis match for Alcaraz. That's not an easy one because he has shown a couple of times now that he is still prone games fraught with (unforced) errors.

Do we have anyone that actually went for Bulgaria not to lose ? after that early goal from Hungary I just left the livesores app and felt that was a wrap already, little did I know that they were still much drama to unfold down the line. That result still, is of no relevance to me as opponent and myself have an aligned opinion on that match too. However, I'm keen on the Jannik Sinner vs Rune tennis game, it's starting in a few minutes, I'd be needing Jannik Sinner to win this game to have Rune eliminated, that would give me my very first advantage of my fixture.

Damn switzerland for conceding that goal so late in the game 😁😂 But israel deserved that goal I think they were the best team in this game, they could also have won the match. Bad start and being 1-0 down, but we still have many other answers that can turn the game around 😁

2-2 between Bulgaria and hungary which is a little surprising. Hungary scored an early goal and it looked like this would be an easy game for them. But Bulgaria managed to equalize but then Bulgaria got a red card and then Hungary should have no problem and win this match, but then they also get a red card and Bulgaria manages to score 2-1 before Hungary manages 2-2 in overtime. weird match 😂 and of course no points for me or mv1986😂

Definitely answers my question and I didn't raise this issue out of fun, I just came across a German article and it said how close it is to being evaluated as a 3-0 and I could see some questions coming up when that happens. Similar to what we have seen with Sullivan in snooker now. So no worries, I do hope for - but don't expect - BSFL to grow into a multi-billion dollar project! But I think if someone is aware of a small gap in the rules, why not share it and we can find consensus here before the problem arises.

Funny side note: I completely missed the Israel game and the last post I saw was from cryptofrka saying that Israel is about to lose 1-0. Good news that there was a surprise in the making when I looked it up.

@Slissy that was my lucky punch in the last few minutes for the moment, let's see if you can hit back hard! Good luck!

Yeah I got that one but there are alot more question with different answer between us so thats going to change nothing for now. Anyway, I guess we can take it easy for today because both of us got the same answer on Hungary vs Bulgaria. I actually changed my answer before I submitted them, I should be taking Hungary to cover -1.5 handicap but changed it when I re-check my answers

I think Im going to hedge a bet on Hungary -1.5 so that I wont feel bad if they ended up winning with over 2 goals difference today 

South Africa played miserable in their round against Australia, and is close to lose semi-final
Australia needs to go over 212, which should not be a problem for them, as live odds suggest, with @1.16 on Australia to win

hope to see rain and game washed out, but didn't happened

had to start a point down, three different questions remain

I'm not sure about this one, but it's all awesome man! If we don't have clear rules on vold question, we'll be having discussions like this tomorrow. He already had group stage games scheduled, and in any other sport, that would have been considered a loss.

FYI: This is not for my interest and with or without snooker question I'm woffing FM ass this week.

Exactly what I was going with my post. I just didn't know how to word it better so I guess I was misunderstood. Since O'Sullivan didn't actually play any games and another player took his spot in the group, he was never in the group stage of the competition.

Nobody wins snooker seems that's the best answer

Another week of BSFL, another day, and another moment of broken dreams in the final minute, which is why we love football the most. Israel saved many people and broke so many, for once I survived and did not fall behind. Ahead after first shot 1-0, lets go vd309! Hungary same answer so I don't care, but come on Uruguay!!

Regarding Snooker - the question is worded like this:

7. We have Champion of Champions in snooker this week. Ronnie O’Sullivan is a sports legend and defending Champion here. In which stage will he leave the tournament?

Options were:

Group Stage
Semi Final
Final
He will defend the title

As you can see, neither answer is correct. He did not leave the tournament in the group stage but before it, Ding Junhui took his spot in the group.

Therefore, even if the answer was not made public before we would have voided it - Group stage is not the correct answer.

Isn't is what the VAR is for if the News was already on the thread? Like the majority of us did in Season 2 when the News broke on the thread?

Secondly, there have been situations where the majority of the team went into the round knowing 100% of the answers;

 1. The Manchester City attackers lineup between Foden, Halaand, and Alvarez, where those who waited until the deadline saw the lineup and the question wasn't void.

2. The Messi vs. Bolivia game, where most of us who answered early didn't find out about Messi's injury until it was too late, and those who answered a few hours before the deadline got into the round with 100% answers and the question wasn't void.

I've been speaking out against the void rules since season one; let's not do anything to discredit people that conduct research and favour the lazy ones. This question deserves to stand.

I know most of you want this as much as I do but y'all let me play the bad cop. Yes I'm sheriff.

You guys are not reading the thread. Snooker is already void, mostly because it was made public here before the deadline and that forced our hand a bit. Browse a little and you will find couple of my posts on that topic. In short it is not fair to give a 100% correct answer few hours before the deadline.

Tennis question stands for sure since Tsitsi played one whole match and question is worded in a way that makes it full proof even if we have multiple forfeits. We also have that in the rules.

I don't expect problem with Hungary game but I also wrote about that few posts above.

No, he was in the competition until the final minute, and the same thing happened in season 2 when he withdrew from the competition and those of us who got the information used VAR (I was one of them) and the question wasn't void, so what's different this time? Questions like this should benefit those who care about each of the questions.

Tsitsi also withdrew so are we going to void the question for those who picked him?

We already have the Hungary question hanging, the snooker question hanging and potentially the tennis question so what's left to play for?

Just my 0.005 cent.

Damn with that late goal. I really thought that they won't score against Switzerland who conceded only 8 goals in 7 games. I guess I was wrong so now I'm again starting this round with a negative score. I hope that Sinner can win today's match against Rune to level the score 1:1 between me and buwaytress.


The Cro2 duo will decide, but I think that this question should stay void. O'Reilly gave up before the competition started and that means he didn't even get to play the group stage of the competition. For me it's all the same because both me and buwaytress answered that he will pass the semi final. Buwaytress answered that he will reach the final and I answered that he will defend the title.

Football is not individual sport, things like this almost never happen. We are evaluating them on a case to case basis with info we have at that moment. When stuff like that happens usually there isn't an immediate ruling about points. Game gets delayed for whatever reason usual consequences are:
1. Game is played later that day or in next few days - we wait for result and award points
2. Game is postponed indefinitely - question is void
3. Game is stopped at 70 minutes and result proclaimed as valid - we count it as valid as well

I don't think your case ever happened. If it was the case, game would be postponed and new date would be assigned. I give it 1% for 3:0 for Hungary and even if that happened I belive it would come as announcement much later. Weeks after we void the question.

Hope that answers your question. This is a community project, not a multi-billion casino/sportsbook that has to cover every single case imaginable.

We do our best to cover as much as possible but more than half of players can't even be bothered to read first 4 posts. Or post answers on time. In our mind, getting late with answers is the number one issue and has much bigger impact on competition than one question per season that maybe gets voided. That sends a wrong message and could possibly break the good thing we have going on here. Rewards will not grow if we don't have more engaged players and we don't want to babysit players and tell them 5 times to submit their answers, that is not fair for engaged players. And if there isn't growth, there isn't progress and soon comes stagnation and then decay.
