Well, the time has come, after a long travel to Carnaro the team arrived to the home of the mafia guys. 11500 km a long journey, the players are in good condition to this match, they know for what we are playing, for our hopes of not being relegated.

We are gonna play with one ear in other matches and one eye in others. With the radio ON listen how the other games were.

Wow, I really didn't expect that I went to the final. Anyone can see me in the lowest position of Division 3A from 12 matches only won one match that's why I say luck is still with me in the Cup and my next opponent is @hosseinimr93 one of the best predictors who will rise to division 2 next season, but I have never worried about anyone because I know luck can come at any time.
Congratulations Bro, because making sure to the final in the Cup has ensured the 5mBTC prize is the same amount for the Div2 winner and luck always comes  in the right time.


Submitting my answers for the last two rounds, the answers for baseball and F1 are just guesses without doing research because it is difficult to predict, I don't really follow this sport, good luck to you Hakan because I know you will fight well to keep playing in Div 2 for the next season.

Really incredible to be honest. You are bottom of Div3, lost 10 out of 12 league games and are about to get relegated and have by far the worst GD in all 4 leagues.
Yet, your Cup run has been incredible and you'll finish the season with a very good reward.

Just shows that every season every team has something to play for here. Congratulations, man Smiley

So, the Cup final will be hosseinimr93 vs BitcoinHunt3r - the clash of 2 Division 3 teams.

Well done guys. Division 3 is always doing well in cup but @hosseinimr93 especially deserves a very good congratulations. Cup is crazy, knockout means anything can happen, this is like Las Zocas from Tercera division going to the final to meet Real Madrid in Copa del Rey Wink

Names are just placeholders ofc - but you get the idea. The worst for me would be if players swapped 'just to try Division 3' - that's why I was against swapping at the beginning.
We'll have a long talk about how to approach this to be fair and meaningful, and then we'll probably still put it to a vote.

No team will publish the reasons for swapping or the amount here (it should be optional), only a swap statement for a completed transaction. If someone swaps to try lower division, it shouldn't be a problem because there's no assurance he'll survive there.

Alright Renato297 you can now give me the final stab in the back Grin This is going to be an interesting match and I can keep myself above water if I beat you. It would be a highly interesting last round if I win this one unless hakan2217 and vivekdkhyani both win their rounds. We have some serious relegation drama going on and I think in a real football division, it would be called a miracle if team shogun47 can pull the head out of the noose  Grin

I will use the day now to prepare the team for a tough week hoping we'll come out on top  Cool

Thank you cryptofrka. Yes, my first season in BSFL has been great so far.


By the way, can I know when the final will be played? and are you ready @hosseinimr93 ?
As already stated by cryptofrka, we will have the cup final after finishing the league. So, we should have the questions two weeks later.

We will finish the league and then proceed to the Cup final and promotion/relegation playoffs.


and are you ready @hosseinimr93 ?
Yes, I am ready. Let's see which of us will lift the trophy.

It's good that I decided not to play any friendly game on Cup break. Looking how I answered questions, it wouldn't end well for me.
I see we have baseball question this week. Will have to make research there. But I ask one question - do USA play there with MLB players or there is no their best players?
And tennis question, I'm waiting for Davis Cup finals, after all, it will be last dance for Rafa Nadal.
Few last rounds remaining and got very difficult opponent now...

That opens several possible problems for me, just on top of my head without giving it much thought
1. Who will do that and waste his time to feed questions to AI and then send responses?
2. If AI is successful we have killed the league. Everyone will start using it. Just check what AI models have been doing in FPL. Everyone with same stats and similar teams.
3. I don't expect AI to be any good at it so don't have a wish to try it out. If it were, there would be a lot less bookies around and many more millionaires.
1. You and Mafiaman can do it, and it takes little time to get AI predictions Grin
2. There is no chance AI is going to win, but if that happens money goes back to the pool again.
3. Than you should not be afraid of AI league killer.

AI would draw its answers from the same data pool that the odds provider uses to determine their odds right ?
I think AI would use lowest odds or just write random answers.

For me, by far the biggest reason for allowing club sales is the fact that we don't want to lose players like Hhampuz. Or want to attract players like icopress.
If they have to start from Div4, they might not want to. If they can buy into where the most fun is, then the chances increase.

Names are just placeholders ofc - but you get the idea. The worst for me would be if players swapped 'just to try Division 3' - that's why I was against swapping at the beginning.

__________________________________________________________

The questions for Round 14 are here!

The deadline is Tuesday November 19th, 18:00 GMT (forum time).
That is also the deadline for the LMS rebuys but buwaytress would have to be crazy to do it.

We have Nations league and regular football, but also tennis, F1 and baseball.
Last round with the LMS rebuys, will be really interesting to see who gets kicked out and whether they rebuy.

We will finish the league and then proceed to the Cup final and promotion/relegation playoffs.

50% is little too big for a penalties, 20% is better. For both seller and buyer right?
50% of the fee for Division you are playing in with new club, not on the fee for the club itself. If we decided to tax the actual club transaction people would just lie about it.

That is not a big amount. For instance you buy a club in the Division 1 and if the buy in is set to 2 mBTC (will probably even be lower with BTC rising day by day) you have to pay 3 mBTC. So only for the buyer. In case you are doing swap that is actually like two buys so then it is for both, unless one of the clubs is in Div 4 which will be free, and 50% of 0 is still 0  Tongue

expensive AI is updated but most free AI still cannot keep up with current data. I remember for fun I asked this season about La Liga and it told me things that were so old like players who left the club last season.

Whoever is dumb enough to buy AI and use it in FPL deserves to lose. Especially knowing their rivals also using AI.

AI teams are performing wonders in FPL, and it's still in beta stage. AI, when fed with the appropriate data, could be very dangerous. Most of the questions here are odds-based, and bookies' favourites win most of the time, so I believe AI will smash it here, but it'll cost a fortune to design one.

We don't look at that as penalties. It is just a way to get a bit
Idea we discussed long ago was maybe 50% higher entry fee for first season after club is bought or 20% higher fee for two consecutive seasons. Quite possible we will give that to the vote with questions to see what you guys think about it.

I'm always wary of introducing penalties when there actually shouldn't be one -- if you penalise sales because it's bad behaviour, then it shouldn't even be a part of the game. A player who wants to win a lot of money simply has to do well in Div1 every season -- selling and winning top spot in a lower division (also not guaranteed) likely earns you less than if you are top half of Div1.
We don't look at that as penalties. It is just a way to get a bit more money into the rewards pool. We have sort of fixed budget from Sportsbet and we have to find as many ways as possible to boost final rewards.

Edit: Think of it like this. If you are a rich guy with money to buy the club, you still have to pay the taxes. We are even that good that those taxes go to reward pool instead of our pockets  Grin

People shouldn't look at selling their positions as a business and a way to earn money.

The same as people shouldn't be joining BSFL for that.

I actually never saw this option as a moneymaker, as you can't get a good price out of it to make it such a moneyspinner -- the potential prizes will always be priced in (those awarded in that division), so that's really not much since you only buy an entry, not a winning position.

I believe the idea was more like a trade of opportunities. The same players already in BSFL just wanting a pop at another league. I would sell to see if I can survive Div2 (still considering).

I was curios about the Sinner vs Fritz tennis match being offered at 1.15 and 5.50 Odds respectively, upon checking the odds seemed super justified giving how terrif Jannik have been on tour this year, I might have lost track of his record, he's only lost 1 of his last 30 matches, crazy right ?!! Should be a straight set affairs against the American, I'd say.
Should be easy for Sinner but Fritz is one of those that can make it though for anyone just by serving super well. I don't see how he can threaten Sinner unless he has a monster day on his serve. Sinner is two classes better on all ground strokes and if he gets to play on Fritz serve it will be short affair.
We have easy win for Sinner with the score of 6–4 and 6–4 look like he is going to dominate in 2025 as well because no challenger can stop him with this performance.

hosseinimr93 vs Dittoup : hosseinimr93 Lead with a score 3-2 and only one question left number 10 while 2 other questions they answer the same so the opportunity for @hosseinimr93 is a draw or win.

vivekdhyani1 vs BitcoinHunt3r : Both of them collected 4 points and 2 more points still available number 7 and 10 so the opportunity is  same 50-50 there is a possibility going through a penalty question.

Do you guys have an opinion about questions 10?  and for question number 7 I think it's based on luck.

Can we include one test AI team next season in Division 4 with only machine answers, to see if AI can predict outcomes better than humans?
If AI wins anything or goes in higher divisions all money goes back to the pool, and it should be fun experiment for next season.
That opens several possible problems for me, just on top of my head without giving it much thought
1. Who will do that and waste his time to feed questions to AI and then send responses?
2. If AI is successful we have killed the league. Everyone will start using it. Just check what AI models have been doing in FPL. Everyone with same stats and similar teams.

AI would draw its answers from the same data pool that the odds provider uses to determine their odds right ? and I'd agree that AI would be less successful here, but perhaps maybe an AI team would not get relegated but, I strongly don't see it winning any division, it's likely going to be mid team dweller.
