@cryptofrka @Trofo maybe if you have a moment of spare time you can address the question I posted here. I get you guys are very busy, so no hurry. Just thought maybe you missed it.



I have just spent a while to figure out how this tends group stage works and what all the possible scenarios are, especially in the group with Alcaraz and Zverev as that is what will decide between me or Slissy getting the point. These group stages are kind of wild. Since there are ist just a single round robin match between the players of each group, there are sometimes quite some weird constellations possible. But I think for me it is clear that Alcaraz has to win.

I wonder whether the bookies get the odds right because Alcaraz isn't the strongest on hardcourt whereas I think it is Medvedev's strongest surface. But they still make Alcaraz the favorite. I thought the odds should be about equal. What do you guys think here?

Honestly our division frustrates me my win in round 2 has become absolutely meaningless and my hard fought win from last week will most likely become meaningless too...looks like that Danydee is the next who will leave.

Yup, this is understandable.
We have Rikafip as the next one to leave, he played for 2 seasons without issues and then did not submit 3 rounds in a row.
It is hard to prepare for stuff like this in advance - you have Kanapka in Division 2 with 2 failed submissions so far for example.

We want you to know that we're tracking this, we don't like it as well because it leads to a poor experience and we won't allow it to spread into the following seasons.
We are already discussing a single Division 3 with 16 teams from next season, with only criteria to enter being the submission consistency.

The problem with Division 3 is that we have to be more lenient, SB of course wants more players and we can't stop submissions, so stuff like this happens without us being able to influence it much.
Anyway, we'll do something - just give us this season to properly analyze it.

Thanks for addressing it.
Maybe it's just me who doesn't like how things are going in 3B and maybe it's me who should leave.
But a Division 3 reform would of course very welcomed from my side.
I personally would even pay a fee for Division 3 but I guess that's something not everyone would like if Division 3 comes with a entry fee.

I thought that Israel wouldn't be able to score a single goal therefore I decided to pick 0 goal to be scored by them in the pool. But they scored a goal in the last minutes.  Sad  Thankfully my opponent also picked the same answer with me. Otherwise I might have been really regretful for not picking 1 goal instead.

We have quite many questions related to Euro 2024 qualifiers because of this national break so I hope that it can bring about some luck for me as well.  Grin

I noticed that the spreadsheet's snooker question area is yellow. I hope we are not planning to cancel the question because Ronnie O'Sullivan was in the competition until yesterday morning and there was plenty of time for anyone who did research before entering answers to use the VAR. In case there is any doubt, the question remains legitimate.

First of all, I need Israel to score 1 goal tonight to get a lead Smiley
You got your wish granted Sad
I told you, you are the favorite in this match.
Damn Israel scored a goal in 88th minute of match against Switzerland, and I am starting this round negative point on first question  Tongue
International matches can be very tricky, especially when teams already qualified for next round.
There is still plenty of questions I answered differently from my nemesis in this round and I am not giving up easy.

Israel losing 1-0 so far, I actually wanted to go with them not scoring. However, statistically from all angles it averaged to 1 goal so I went with that option.
Funnily enough - other than cricket, that's the only answer me and my opponent have the same. Considering I fucked up with tennis, I like it better that way. More wiggle room to catch up.

Very lucky for you in the end, hopefully it will remains this way, Israel have just restored parity against Switzerland, It's 1 apiece and the game is into stoppage time already, Israel have played so well, and not getting at least one goal here would have seemed an unfair result, it doesn't change anything between my opponent and myself though, we both have Israel to score to no goal in the game.

Mental illness.
I am not joking.
And it's so sad to see snooker GOAT struggling with mental illness, it's already been long time since he have it. He already talked multiple times about retirement, but I hope he won't do it yet.

yeah, last time when we had him in question, on Masters, he also withdrew just before tournament start, obviously not an easy one to overcome

I have no idea what "they chose to bat first" even means Grin I just went with the best odds for the teams and chose India as the winner because it's the most popular sport in the country.
No idea too and what advantage it gives. I would guess that's something similar like to seve first, but probably circket fanswould laugh from such my prediction Cheesy.

as simple as possible, they are collecting points first, and India collected 397 from 50 rounds
basically that was already the moment you knew they won, although New Zealand had their 50 rounds to try and catch that

~snip
My suggestion to you and other members. Set reminder about BSFL on your phone for example 1 hour before the deadline and make that it would repeat each week. Previous season I missed deadline even with reminders from Cr2, so, from now I have notification on my phone because shit happens sometimes.

TBH, I am trying to always tag my opponent in the round on Monday, and usually on Tuesday as well
it is through - have a gg or something, but also trying to always have an opponent ready (maybe other should try as well)

Sorry guys, I fucked it up. I got used too much on those reminders that you used to send few hours before the deadline and without them I completely forgot to submit my answers.

Anyway, good luck with the rest of the season and apologies once again as I know how much effort you put into this.  

Considering you're from local, I wanted to send you a DM before this round - unfortunately, I forgot.

I am not joking bro, you are rich and powerful coming from Division 1, and even poor Trofo has to win some matches this season  Grin

7 different answers between us ! and one of it would be on the tennis question with only Sinner being the difference between our question so I gotta need him to lose against Rune one the next one or Im losing point on this question ! Oh actually I would had Ronnie to defend the title if I didnt read anything about him withdrawing from the tournament so that would have been 8 different answers between us lol

First of all, I need Israel to score 1 goal tonight to get a lead Smiley

It's just 3 different answers between myself and my opponent, I can't categorically say I feel confident in the with the difference between our answers going my way, but the best edge I might have here is if Rune and Alcaraz don't make the semi-final and a Zverev and Sinner does, It's looking more likely for Sinner over Rude, but Zverev over Alcaraz is not guaranteed yet because, Alcaraz is currently 1 set ahead of Rublev and then 1 break up too in the second set, so it could be a 2-0 win for Alcaraz here.

I just checked the answers from buwaytress and me. Thankfully we have the same answer for the cricket question because I have no idea about the rules of that sport. The only thing I do know about cricket is that it's very popular sport in India.

And now the tennis question... We have almost the same answer. The only difference is that I chose Sinner and buwaytress chose Ruud to advance to the semi finals. But now that I checked the tournament, I don't see Ruud playing. Buwaytress, what's up with that? Now I just need Sinner to advance to the semi finals to get that point. And with two straight wins, he is on a good path to secure me a point Grin

Cricket easy, I chose the tourney favourites. No idea either, so picking the top 2 outrights favs (they have been since the start) was a no-brainer.

Tennis... my mistake. I meant to enter Rune =( Now I just need Sinner to lose next games but you certainly have the upper hand here. I guess this season I'm giving free passes out. Enjoy Wink

How many chances should DireWolfM14 actually get?

As Trofo said, he got kicked out already a while ago. I remember, just can't find the post.

Guys I have an interesting question regarding our rules because maybe it becomes relevant one day and I think is not precisely defined or covered with the rules we have in place.

Quote
Forfeits in sports like Tennis or loses due to technical problems in eSports are counted as regular ML wins.

How would the game between Bulgaria and Hungary have been evaluated if it had become true that it doesn't take place because Bulgaria's stadium (that was originally planned as the venue) was a threat to human lives for technical reasons? In some articles it says that the game is about to be evaluated as 3-0 for Hungary. They now found an alternative venue, but what would have been the implications for our BSFL picks? As it was a high risk game, someone could argue that they took into account the game being high risk and therefore had a cancellation and a 3-0 for Hungary in the back of their minds, hence went with a -1.5 handicap win.

he probably meant Rune, but missed a point
and Sinner is a good to win this tournament after yesterday night win over Djokovic, not just to pass into semifinal

Well... I guess it's an easy point for me in case Sinner gets to the semi final. Buwaytress can get a draw on that question at best Smiley

regarding cricket, India is probably an easiest pick to reach final and win, other finalist was in question to differ
and India is just starting with New Zealand, they chose to bat first, so it will be probably known after their bat who will reach the final

I have no idea what "they chose to bat first" even means Grin I just went with the best odds for the teams and chose India as the winner because it's the most popular sport in the country.

Cro2, question for you two, since you are interested parties, not just because a question

what happen if Wales and Croatia win both matches till the end, Turkey is already assigned as qualified, and all teams will have 16 points, probably some goal difference in a group, where Turkey is best?



interesting questions this round, nice combo, and opponent is last season winner CLS63, good luck and may the luckiest win

I'm very excited to play against the leader. After getting an easy win last week we are aware as a team that our job is very difficult this week. Because of the penalty we got in the 2nd round we aren't in the place we want in the standings now. I hope that we can manage to make our supporters happy by returning with at least 1 point from away this week.

goodpunt our group leader finally got to meet after a season long wait , and looking at submitted answers we have some similar submissions here which is quite interesting and unexpected Cool

From the different answers we have, will be keeping an eye on the Hungary match, Argentina game, Columbia and Wales matches to see how I fair here...tbh this is a handful of games to get the draw and this might just be your first L of the season, fingers crossed Grin


I am surprised too that we have so many similar predictions thought that I can score some points with shocking predictions.
My team is actually itching for revenge.
You eliminated us last season from the cup competition which started my downtrend  Cheesy
