It's more important questions what could happen to player who missed to answer few rounds of question and becomes inactive in forum?
One round miss can happen to everyone, but I think missing more rounds should be punished somehow, it's not enough just to give someone zero points.
Same thing would happen in real sport competitions.

I know we have that one in the rules

Basically if somebody misses three rounds he is out, we are not counting those late entries when someone misses a question or two in these stats.

Code:

If you fail to participate in more than 3 rounds in a season, you will be removed from your league and will be able to rejoin from the lowest Division next season, if there is space left.
This is decided because we want to make the competition fair to everybody - if you don't play often, some opponents get easy points while others do not.

I would have supported notblox1's idea too, without think about how it affects the league at large, but after reading the last part of your post it makes perfect sense, and I could only further suggest that if someone's opponent didn't participate in a around specific round, given the significance that the points difference (points for - points against) could make in the leaderboard, wouldn't be better to award such user a default win 3 points for the win but 0 for points difference, while their answers would still count towards the weekly freebet and any other brought forward h2h, but they just wouldn't get the points difference, it might seem quite unfair if they for instance get all 10 questions correctly, it will be more unfair to the rest of the players for someone to get 10 unopposed point difference.

That is also in the rules and we had that in MD1. We are awarding that with 3:0. Same as all the leagues in the world and most fair solution for all partities. So you get positive 3 points goal difference if your opponent doesn't show up.

And of course you get 3 points for the win.

For those of you who predicted Liverpool would fail to score, I want to reassure you that it is still possible. Nevertheless, I also want to point out that this weekend will mark the first time this season that Liverpool's full front line will be fully fit and available Grin

Code:

Diaz, Jota, Firmino, Darwin, Salah.... All fit and available

I'm not sure about the game outcome but Liverpool scoring a goal is POSSIBLE.

Liverpool would probably score this weekend, and that's solely because they're facing Man City, If they were playing a different team, I would have been less bothered. Liverpool midfield is shambles, but they'd not be needing the midfield to catch Man City on the break, because City's defence have been porous and inconsistent, but then City win should be an easy call against Loserpool ✌🏾

I'm not expecting much from either team, so I just want both teams to keep me entertained. I'm tempted to bet on Loserpool to eke out a 2-1 win, though I know my chances are slim but not impossible.

Buwaytress what do you have to say about your team going up against City this weekend? Any hope for Loserpool?

Score update

Wolfsburg 1- 1 PSG
What's the update on Tennis guys?

What happens if a Div 1 team is unable to pay the 2.5mBtc for the upcoming season and a lower league team is willing to pay?

I think they should be relegated to lower division if they don't have enough coins to pay, but 2.5mBTC is such a small amount that it wouldnt be a problem for most people.

Two stupid questions? A quick one

1. What happens if a Div 1 team is unable to pay the 2.5mBtc for the upcoming season and a lower league team is willing to pay?

2. How do you deal with those promoted to Div 1 who have no intention of paying? Because, if my memory serves me well, the most of them only want to take part for free when they signed up.

We did not really discuss it since it never crossed out mind that somebody wouldn't pay. All first league positions are rewarded and you can only gain money in this competition not loose it.

If somebody doesn't want to play Div1 I think we will just promote next team in line. But we will write an official sentence about that in OP after we discuss it internally.

I guess it crossed now!

Is it not too late to amend or add some rules now so that this type of question does not arise again in the future It is still possible that someone in Div1 will decide to leave after this season due to unforeseen circumstances.

We are likely to witness a BTS in today's Lyon vs. Chelsea match; Lyon is playing at home and will be going all out offensively while Chelsea will be looking for an early goal to take a comfortable aggregate lead; however, it makes no difference because both I and the opponent put the same answer.

Basketball is boring to watch because there are no goal celebrations—just scores and handshakes—and there is no fan noise anywhere. This makes me want to sleep all the time. I'll make an effort to watch some minutes, though.

Just few hours after my previous post here, Tsitsi-pass decided to pass on ATP Miami tournament 😒; Just a question if both opponents picks do not make tennis finals, does the player that advances the most in the tournament gets the advantage in the H2H question?

Nope. We are grading only your answers in final. So you can get from 0 to max 3 points in your H2H duel.

Just to correct my colleague a bit here - the tennis question in this round is not h2h.
We discussed it when we did the questions, he probably forgot about that Grin

Considering that Alcaraz is a big favorite, everybody would have him anyway - which would lead to many draws.
Basically, you can get a point if you get everything correct - otherwise it will be 0 points.

Oh and for tennis, Sinner - Medvedev was my pick for the finalists and so far everything looks good, Sinner is on the streak I need him to be because Alcaraz

Yeah, tennis isn't for everyone, especially when some games can be played for 3 hours and more. Can't say that I watch it in detail, but I often turn it on in background to follow what's going on. What really makes me sleep is most of American sports like NBA or NHL. Not sport itself, but all these frequent and extremely long commercial breaks

. And fact that most of their games is palyed when it's night in Europe also doesn't helps.

Just in case someone one day quotes this, I did not say that, you intended to quote notblox1 Wink

Watch Alcaraz Fritz tomorrow, matches are shorter in ATP and more digestible, I do agree GS heavyweight 3-hour slugfests can turn people off (I do think with the Big 3 slowly phasing out, this is what I'll actually miss more and more), even I don't watch full games.

Commercial breaks get me down big time too. Which put me off cricket for years but watching the short format T20 in Australia recently was very helpful.

Need some clarity on a few things that have come up....

For us who are in division 3, how are free bet points allocated when you are playing against yourself as certain questions, scores are based on head to head scores?
Secondly, as the games progress I think 15 rounds of the competition is going to be unfair for some players as others are likely to play more games than others looking at the number of players in each group.

By using the formula [(n-1) x2] for home and away games, where n represents the number of players in each group, so for divisions 1 and 2 which has 12 players, the number of games to be played is 22 that's for home and away and for 1 legged games this is going to be limited to 11 rounds, and division 3 games to be played is 10 games for 1 leg while home and away means having 20 game weeks. Do we still maintain the 15 game weeks for season 1.?
Lastly if its not too much work, is it possible to have an extra column for division 3 to show the free week each player to show how many times one has been free.
Btw when getting promoted do we carry over the points we had or points will be reset when going to the next division?

Ok let's try it in order the questions were asked:

Free bets are always alocoted like you are playing against all other players in that division. For free bet purposes only one player will get a point in H2H match. So it doesn't matter if you have opponent or you are free that week.

All leagues have exactly 11 rounds, which means one game against each opponent. Surplus weeks will be used for cup games. You actually have a schedule in one post of mine all the way to the end of league. That also means that all players in Div 3 will be free exactly once when league ends.

Next season is new competition, think of it like regular leagues, we have champion, promotion, relegation and rewards. After that nothing carries over. Next season is a clean state.

Barcelona smashed Roma with 5-1 result and we have two more matches matches played tomorrow, but just now I saw that I didnt utunderstand question number 3 correctly.
I was thinking the question was how many matches will be played with 1-0 result, now I see it was for both teams scoring Cry

There is no men football today and tomorrow, so, it's good chance to pay some attention to WCL. Barca is just different level team, Roma didn't stand a chance against them. I hope that Alexia Putellas finally will return from injury for the semifinals. With her Barca would have big chances to win WCL. In other game, Arsenal also looked like much better team than Bayern.
I predicted BTTS in 3 games, so tomorrow I need that both games would end with such outcome.

Oh gosh

I didnt really watch the game but I checked flashscore, he was listed in subsitutes as well so I thought everything was fine with him. Well given this circumstances, its hard to even dream that Sabitzer might start against Newcastle. Question #3 wont matter to any of us I guess because we got the same answer

Ditto on above discussions, also why I opted for Maguire instead of Varane. Too big a game, and Maguire will be pissed at his Euro sending off, enough to be fit and motivated. I put Elanga down instead of Antony, because I feel like he impressed in the last game (3 minutes, 1 goal haha) and maybe ETH will want fresh legs against brutal Toons. Also, someone only LFC_Bitcoin also picked... very pleased to have a like-minded genius/idiot in this BSFL hahaha.

Harko you did put "Anthony" there, so... is that also Elanga or a typo of Antony? Wink

If so, then we only have Dalot/AWB as a different answer...

Of the "new crop", I liked the Russians but now Rublev and Medvedev are supposed to be in their prime and going nowhere consistent, I even maybe am growing to like Alcaraz a little, Sinner at times is Djoko-like and Rune is maaaaybe a Haaland of tennis but maybe I'm old or no longer easily excited but I don't feel any strong liking for anyone in tennis right now.

We have the exact same lineup prediction except for McTominay. I put in Sabitzer in there but ~~Sabitzer~~ scored two goals as well though so chances are actually not that bad that he might be starting. Roll Eyes

This could be a potential tie for us if Ten Hag decided to put both Sabitzer and McTominay as starter then bench Fred lol we'll see

I really can't guess Erik Ten Haag thought process, but I don't think he'll want to risk Varane this soon, so I went with Maguire since, Maguire played in the international matches so it gives better chances of being match fit, of course, I know ETH doesn't like Maguire, but with Man United playing twice in 3 days and the other match is supposedly a home fixture against Brentford, I want to believe Brentford and Newcastle looks to be of equal threat or form right now and Varane wouldn't be rushed to play. I couldn't pick another to pair with Fred and McTominay, so I went with Bruno, while having Rashford, Sancho and Anthony all upfront, also because I couldn't settle for just one of Sancho and Anthony for Werghost, because Rashford is also still a doubt for the game, and if he doesn't play that leaves room for both Sancho and Anthony to start, I guessed Rashford would be favourite pick so if he doesn't play, I have little to lose and If he does and then I'm sure I'd also have one of Anthony or Sancho right, perhaps as have been the case recently, so deciding between Sancho or Anthony for Werghost doesn't seem necessary to me.

Not a bad strategy for you, I may have doubt for other positions but Werghost is starting, he is the only natural number 9 available, his work rate has been impressive since he joined the team, and he is also the reason Rashford is getting more scoring chances. He is a top target man in the squad, and he is the perfect example of Giroud. These players don't score more frequently, but they create a lot more space up front for the wingers to operate. BUT............

________________+++++++++++++++++++++++___________________

Before the international break, ETH stated that Varane's injury was not serious and that he would be given some time to heal before the forthcoming match. Moreover, Varane trained extremely well today with no signs of pain. He will likely start before Manguire, in my opinion.

and I don't think Varane will start but let's wait and see.
Rashford just had a knock and I think he missed England national team match so there is higher chances he will start this match and leave earlier if Man United secures win.
