I'm just not going to try to state the obvious that have been discussed over here already regarding users submitting late, I know it's a game of tactics and awareness sometimes we all need to wait a bit closer to the deadline to get extra information (and that's actually commendable showing a little bit of extra commitment rather than just entry random jargons, just like someone putting just "Astralis" question no. 7 answer, whereas, Astralis were already out of the picture before the question for the round was released) but at the same time of what use are all those information gathered if you eventually miss the deadline, and I understand it takes just a few minutes to get distracted and bang! you've missed the deadline.

As for myself, I often do submit my answers relatively on time except when I'm sure there are still other relevant information to get, but despite me having +1 hour advantage to the forum default time, I still set multiple alarms to remind me should incase I had get carried away buy a busy real life activities, and Here is an example of my alarm schedule for today of which the last alarm still gives me an hour of advantage to that of the forum's time

we really can just do better guys Wink

We have penalties in the rules. There will not be any extra added. If you are late that is -1 point on table and you probably loose your H2H since you start with few questions less. I meant if you forget several times during season minus points plus lost matches will probably mean relegation. You will not get that penalty directly from us.

Yeah its 3 questions less but its not really bad compared to the last time I submitted it late. Im already on the brink of relegation so this probably costed me alot but 7 questions with 5 different answers with @mitchr4 so I'll take my chances there but Im doom if he got points from the other 3 questions

Anyway thanks @Jayce for reminding me, I completely forgot about it after I took my shower.

So, what's your excuse, guys? This gives your opponents an unfair advantage, as well as some of us who have worked hard to make this tournament very competitive. Guys, 48 hours is already too much time!!!

No excuses from me, It was bad and unprofessional of me

Golf question i answer whatever, and now i came here and read Rory McIlroy its the favorite.
~snip

@buwaytress
I would not call him "favorite", he is within golfers that could win this one, but there is no real favorite in Golf, IMO
Rory already won Royal Open in Liverpool, and can't be sure, but I think that there is no golfer that won it twice in last 10 years (Rory won this in his debut, as I already wrote in this topic)

so, IMO, he should not win another, will be way too much, but on the other hand, he is as close to be called "golfer with most chances to win it"
there is no domination similar to, for example, Djokovic or Nadal in tennis, in Golf

Rakow already passed to next round, easy win on a side, 0:3
Bate is in goalless draw so far against Partizani, match is playing on neutral field, due to Belarus being sanctioned

This is too much guys, I am arguing that we need to stop giving you reminders and simply make all the players that are late drop down to lower leagues. Cryptofrka has made me do it this season as well but no way we are doing that next season. We have exactly the same deadline every single week since Season 1 started and I expect more from our participants. That is why we are having such pain to make quality questions to give you all at least 48 hours to answer them.

Sorry, submitted

I have no excuses for today, I simply forgot and @jayce reminded me. Otherwise I would probably submitted it way later. As for the punishment, Im totally okay with being drop down to the lower league. I am on division 1 and as of now I have -2 penalty points which is very unprofessional so yeah I think I should be punished way harder because of my neglience

We have penalties in the rules. There will not be any extra added. If you are late that is -1 point on table and you probably loose your H2H since you start with few questions less. I meant if you forget several times during season minus points plus lost matches will probably mean relegation. You will not get that penalty directly from us.

That way we should have more qoulity and only serius players in top divisions after couple of seasons.

There is one more penalty in the rules. That one is if you don't submit at all, more than 2 times per season you are out of competition. Late submission or not submitting creates unfair situations in H2H duels. We want to keep that to the minimum and still not alienate casual players. That is a thin line to thread.

I know this isn't exactly fair to the 5 of you that are late this time around to call you out, but this is the round that I was doing that and I believe this is the negative record of the season.

Oh f*ck, I missed deadline, my bad, submitted answers now. Getting penalty hurts me a lot when every point matters for me to avoid relegation. But I can't blame anyone, just myself, especially after when I saw notification. I was too bussy with making Champions league bets when I got notification. I thought that I will leave predictions few minutes later, but forgot.
Persoanlly, I'm fine if you won't post notifications because usually I don't have problems to submit picks on time, but sometimes shit happens.

I just submitted my own predictions, I wanted to get some insights about some sports and CSGO, but I had my hands tied all so I had to take some unprecedented risks and blind guesses too, I would say.

I really might just let this round slip through my fingers again, given who I'm up against and lack of time to do my proper due diligence, but let's see what lady luck might have in store for me against all odds 🤞

@slackovic @notblox1
Haha yeah I know, was just messing about... always interesting the way some sports are named when they look nothing like their namesakes Wink

I would have called it water handball, since it looks much closer to that to me as an outside observer. But I know, I know, nobody asked me.

I looked it up actually and it was actually water "pulu", from the Tibetan word for "ball". But the English couldn't pronounce it and called it polo, apparently. And it was actually a form of rugby, or football, before the modern version.

Wow! Thanks for the explanation on where does the name come from. I'm from Croatia where waterpolo is a fairly popular sport and I had no idea how it got it's name. I just accepted it as vaterpolo (it's the name of the sport in Croatian) and never thought how it got the name. And you are right, it is more similar to handball than to football, but with hands. I don't know how I didn't think of handball for comparison.

Holy crap I almost forgot my submission haha, just sent it off a minute ago. Timezone a dangerous thing!

Anyway, what are you guys talking about, there's absolutely no luck involved. Except if I finish near the bottom like last season, and out of cups. That's bad luck. Cause I'm seriously an expert across all sports and I know what I'm talking about.

Here's my useless tip for the Golf question: Rory McIlroy, the favourite to win this British Open is from Northern Ireland... which is actually part of the UK.

Yeah, good luck to you too. This round will be a wild one because there is golf, women's football (two questions!!), volleyball... I managed to research a bit about volleyball and women's football, but I have no idea where to start with golf. I don't even know what does -15 to par mean Grin

If I looked at the list of players right, there are many players and I have no intent to check the nationality of each of them. I'll just go with a wild guess on that one. Btw, I think that I have never submit my answers this close to the deadline

Last season I believe one round I scored 6 points, which was a round only 3 or 4 people got that much, and I of course also met that same fellow lol

there is that H2H momentum, two rounds ago I scored 5, and most people were 4 or less, but I had to play Igebotz that only scored 6 and got free-bet along with a win
but that is what makes it interesting

agree that there is a lot of luck here, but would not say that it is only luck, one has to know what to put, no luck will pull you up if you put Nepal to pass cricket group, as some had in spreadsheet

just noticed that I am playing slackovic this round, good luck

Great article Trofo as usual. Does cryptofrka help write this or is he usually too drink?

Articles and chat on Sportsbet page are just me. It is a continuation of what I was doing for fantasy and we just continued in the same way after Sportsbet decided to go all in on BSFL rather than fantasy. Maybe it will change one day but for now any mistakes or opinions voiced there are mine and I am the only one to blame

Must admit it was easier to write about FPL, here it is usually winging it until inspiration hits while with FPL I always had an idea what I would write about.

All good bro no need to be sorry, a win for you is a lesson for myself as always I just gotta do better going forward.

Congrats hope you go far. Grin

Thank you bro! Whoever wins deserves it. I believe I was 3rd place in cup last season but that was with less people so it is much harder now for sure. But back to the league of course for a time being. GL!

I don't know... Look at me. In the last season I was invincible and in the season I have only one win if I remember correctly. I agree that some of you sport fanatics maybe get a little cocky when answering football questions but I don't follow sport that much (at least I didn't before this competititon), but somehow I always managed to win in the last season. Maybe it's just a matter of the "big boys" division this time so I'm up against the best

Anyhow, I hope I don't get relegated in the first season in division 1

I guess that mean my analogy is right because for most football question, I don't even open any sportbook to decide more often than not, the only time I usually do is when we are asked to guess the line up or the players to score a goal or make any an assist, but I can't complain because it put other opponents on their toes as well, and we can't rely on just a general analogy, we'll get more contrast responses for with these questions.

I'm really just looking to pick up points against opponents that are the potential favorites for the 1st position, and that's why it really is a must win affair for me versus jeremy, I'd say.

Trust me guys, this is more about luck. Same experience as slackovic, last season I just couldn't get a single win, and so far this season I am a little bit comfortable. My understanding of sports did not change at all, just the luck. For example in one round I managed only to score 2 points and yet so did my opponent and I managed a draw.

Last season I believe one round I scored 6 points, which was a round only 3 or 4 people got that much, and I of course also met that same fellow lol

It seems we are all the same, football we don't even look at odds, we already know who to pick in our hearts, but still good to look up news about injuries or who's playing depending on teams. Like some teams you know almost all 11 plays all the time, but Chelsea and City have 3 squads, that's something I still have to look up and guess.

with these varieties of questions coming up, only time will tell if I won't get relegated this season Huh

You know, I was thinking the same thing the other day. It's much easier (at list I look at it that way) to predict result in a sport that you are familiar with. But when you have to do the research in a sport that you know nothing about, it's hard and it comes down to pure luck.

The only difference with sports you're familiar with is that sometimes you get a bit cocky, and you barely depend on research and can just tell like let's say it's football for instance, you know that a team is only have decent run of for form while you can decide that the form is just a fluke and confidently pick against them, however, for sports that you need to research on, it's usually a games of odds vs their form, and you really don't know if there is an important factor that could make them win or lose a game, we mostly just go with flow and trend.
