What if... we also have pages on Sportsbet like a team/season profile with logos and updates every season like Superbru stats?

Not gonna happen, it is really problematic to add stuff to Sporsbet mainpage. It is difficult to maintain as is with bunch of different modules.

Yeah, the problem is we can't view these business sites like a homepage where we can assign a user to just edit and add. Highly sensitive data in admin panel -- someone with admin rights has to design a new page and manually update it, it wouldn't be easy with externals.

I like the template idea. Just a post with the logo, team info etc. Linked from table on OP or 2nd post.

Yeah ok I got it, I was thinking like the news page Trofo makes every week but I guess a page of text is just a lot easier to manage for SB than images and constant updates but still it would be a very cool idea on forum anyway and makes SB a permanent visibility on bitcointalk, I like it

Small teaser, we have a new sheriff police force coming in BSFL town, and cro2 team wont like it Grin

Anything cro2 won't like must be good for us lol

Sorry on poor quoting but I am on my mobile in the middle of crypto conference.

Anyway, new article is up and notblox1 and his logo creating service got a nice shout out.
https://sportsbet.io/sports/soccer/news/bitcointalk-sports-fanatics-league-cup-final

There are BSFL logos included but it is very difficult to agree on stuff like that. For instance BSFL link should have been incorporated into previus sentece but got lost in the space until I sent it and it got published.

Nothing happens here if we don't like it, so if it is happening means only that we have an angle on it you guys did not see yet Cool

Sheriff? Don't you have to be among the elite to be that?
He's barely a deputy, and even the sheriffs are always in Mafia's pockets - everybody knows that.

Com' on did you not see who validated the position? Steve ( Sportsbet) Steve Sabi ball and he knows where I fit in.

Speaking of elite, you haven't even kicked a ball yet and you're coming at me. I'm the Goat, you can ask Trofo. What happened to shame? I played there for two seasons, but I can't say the same about you. Grin

Speaking of VAR rules, did any club use all three trials last season? Nah? I used only 1/3 last season; is it possible to carry over the remaining two to next season? Grin

I hardly ever use it regardless, just a suggestion.

I don't think so, no. We're happy with where VAR is at the moment and there are no plans to change it for the next season. 3 VAR's per player, and we'll track it of course.
Now there's an incentive to submit early, so we expect VAR to be used a bit more often.

I'm okay with whatever rules, just like I said it was just a random suggestions from the sheriff

If would prefer the team name to be "Flying Without Ings FC" if that's not going to be an issue, thanks in advance Cheesy

Thank you.
You are now added on waiting list Harkorede

I am sending you message with few simple questions you should answer, so I can have better idea what logo to make for you based on this feedback.
Before making logos I check member post history and I try to add unique personal touch to all of them.

More updates about BSFL logos will be posted later today.
New BSFL season is starting very soon, better be ready on time guys Wink

As part of a freebet grading revamp, it might be beneficial to the player if he submits early.
We want to settle all freebets in the actual rounds, so that people don't have to fight for them for weeks.

The new rules for freebets are here:

Quote from: cryptofrka on October 09, 2023, 02:47:10 PM

There's also a slight change in how we'll calculate the freebet round winners.
First criteria will be total points, and only the best answer in the league will be able to claim the H2H point.
Second criteria will be all the H2H duels in that round between the tied players. If the player already claimed a point for the best answer in the league in a H2H question, that one will not be counted.
Third criteria in case there is still a tie after the H2H questions will be the time of submission - earlier submission will win the freebet.

Ah, I see. I remember that we talked about this some time during the last season but it looks like I missed it during this week conversation. I think it's good approach to settle all freebets in the same week. And it's less work for you guys.

Wait, did I miss something? What are you referring to as the incentive for submitting early? Do you mean that incentive is that you are sure that you won't be late or some other incentive? It's hard to read all these walls of text on mobile so I'm wondering did I miss something.

Quote from: Harkorede on October 11, 2023, 10:20:31 AM

I like the late submission rule, and it meaning an automatic loss for the player, I however don't agree with the potential -4 points, that is the penalty points, I believe one should not lose more point than they can gain from a specific round, in that light I suggest that penalty points should be an independent entity on it's own, and not technically associated with a user accrued points in the league, for unforeseen circumstance beyond human decision anyone could miss a round, I mean even team Cro2 stands a chance of failing to have a question available for despite that never being the case due to their extreme professionalism.

Penalty points would be better off being independent like I aforementioned, just like the VAR, let's say the maximum number of penalty (warning) points every user can get per season is proportional in terms of %age to the number of fixture available to them for that season, perhaps a maximum of 2-3 penalty points before an automatic relegation consideration regardless of where the user finishes by the end of the season while the first person on the relegation table if consistent enough with their submission gets to stay another season in their current division.

The penalty won't be -4 points, it will be the loss of the round, -3 GD and -1 point in the standings.
To be honest - I don't like extremely strict rules. But this is becoming a 10k$ prize pool competition in which we have to have the same rules for everybody.

Considering the nature of questions (different in dates, H2H number and complexity), sometimes a late submission made 2 of your questions invalid, and sometimes 5 of them. Not quite fair - which is the main driver behind the 'no tolerance' decision.

The idea behind penalty points is to filter all the people that aren't engaged or taking this competition seriously enough to lower leagues and allow true sport fanatics to be in first 2 divisions.

agree here, penalties should be there (as you put them)
and one can see that both relegated teams from Div1 (nothing personal against them, contrary, just stating facts) had penalty points this season
so one can see that penalty rules are doing what you have said in your intent to enforce them

My thought on penalties involving anything is if you don't line the penalty, don't do anything that will earn you a penalty. It's as simply as that. It may sound cruel but we have 48 hours to submit our answers. I think that all of us can find 5 minutes to just submit anything. No one is required to do the research if they don't have time.

Don't get me wrong, because I think you're and taking my post out of context, if there is anyone that missed any or get the least reminder, that would be me, but regardless I'm just pointing how I think things would be better going forward, and it's just a harmless opinion at that.

I'm not saying penalties shouldn't be handed out, and if you digest my post properly, I'm even suggesting a stiffer punishment (relegation) for it regardless of if the person finishes in a prized position, but if we are taking potential 4 points off a person on a penalty, we would be making the leaderboard highly fluctuating and doing the same thing we complained about for the majority of last season.

The idea behind penalty points is to filter all the people that aren't engaged or taking this competition seriously enough to lower leagues and allow true sport fanatics to be in first 2 divisions. We said on multiple occasions that we want to have perfect higher divisions where everything is done by the book while we can tolerate more lenient rules in our last Division.

That way we will be able to provide best possible experience and rewards to the people that deserve it most.

@Harkorede my post wasn't directed to you. I was speaking generally that penalties are for me something that can easily be avoided by playing by the rules. And that's why I think that the penalty of -1 points (plus losing potential three points does to automatic loss) is not that harsh.

As for the VAR suggestion, I don't think that anyone would be willing to accept -1 point to change an answer. To me it's better to have one wrong answer than automatic -1 point. I think that I used only one VAR in the last season.

I like all of the new rules, but one that I would want to see admend in the future is the VAR rule;

If you've used up your three trails, each VAR you use after that will cost you -1 point.

This is a huge prize to pay because changing your answer before the deadline doesnt mean that you are going to win that round therefore even if this gets added, I dont think anyone would be silly enough to spend their valuable 1 point on changing their answers. Imagine changing your answers with -1 point reduction only to lose that round as well , that would be nasty

Quote from: Harkorede on October 11, 2023, 10:54:36 AM

I only used one VAR last season, and it was very close to end...

iirc wasnt you the one that used them on a question related to Messi not playing for Argentina? It was against me wasnt it. That was a good VAR usage btw if it was you

Main purpose should be to add them in standings table, in the same way like we see in Premier League, La Liga and other leagues.
They can also be used pre match and post match for most interesting matches, or for previews.
