Should be better for you next season. Even if you don't promote, Division 3 will have fee to pay and better rewards which should push it to look like Div 1 and Div 2. And if you check our penalty table you will see, vast majority of penalties are in our bottom division. People get more serious when they pay to play.



Trofo is there a way Igebotz U21 can sign-up for division 4 next season?
We will think about what would that do but for now answer is No. That opens whole lot of problems I don't know how to handle.



If you forget to submit the answers you will be penalized regardless of whether the player you played against is out of bsfl..
We discussed that internally and decided on this. Logic behind it:
1. When you are out we wanted it to be like you never played since that is most fair
2. If you never played your opponent is free that round and didn't need to submit
3. It is easier for me to do and you to follow if we reward all those game as 3:0 instead of just deleting and in the and it comes to the same thing.

Damn! I feel sorry for Hhampuz! From 3rd place to a 5th place because of a player who managed to forget 3 times to submit his answer on time.

The one who got the most "benefit" because that Smartvirus is out of bsfl is dbshck. He got 4 points.. 3 point from the match and then he got his 1 minus point cancelled.. and also he got his goal different from 5 to 11..

We all agree that it is fair that all matches will be canceled and converted to 3-0 win. This is a special situation, the match between Smartvirus-dbshck, smartvirus sent his answer on time but dbshck forgot it and got a penalty. Now Smartvirus is out and dbshck got his penalty cancel. But I hope in the next season, if the same were to happen, the penalty will remain at 1 minus point. No one should get away with penalty by luck. If you forget to submit the answers you will be penalized regardless of whether the player you played against is out of bsfl..

Now I'm waiting for the fight between Paul Jack - Mike Tyson😁  Lets go Tyson!!!!😁😁

Give it a break, man. Lol, I understand how our division works, and I know we're one club short, but I was curious how Hhampuz went from a serious title candidate a few weeks ago to fighting for promotion slots now. Gave me the biggest chase ever!!

The removal Smartvirus FC caused significant harm to those of us who defeated him while benefiting those who lost. (Mine was free points, BTW  Grin) But it was a perfect decision. The only way to survive is to get promoted to Division 2.

You've done a lot of work this season and deserve the promotion. You will have the chance to swap to whatever club you want next season. Igebotz U21- are on the market.

Trofo is there a way Igebotz U21 can sign-up for division 4 next season?

Noticed several times already that you really took time to read the rules and then used common sense to interpret situations. Really impressive for first season. It all seems very straightforward to us organizers and then we feel a bit taken back when people that are with us for several season miss some important part of how BSFL works. Fact that you got it in season 1 means it is all well explained for those that take time to do so.

I think the window to submit answers is short (I have sometimes seen the 2 days flash by after just making a mental note to return to the questions) but working on that will be difficult to do. Only fix looks to be announcing the next week's question while the current one is still active which can be confusing for some.

I  believe the two days are enough for everyone to commit 20 minutes of their time. I've missed submitting twice in the past, and I have no excuses. If you're unsure about your Monday and Tuesday activities, you can do what Hhampuz does and submit your answers on Sunday and enjoy the rest of the week.

For latecomers like us, I prefer to wait until a few hours before the deadline before submitting; I've programmed my brain that way. You will get used to it with time.

If only we had more new additions like you. Rookie of the year title is already yours for sure. Not that it comes with anything except bragging rights  Grin

Say no more, this dude deserves it. In addition to his knowledge on how things works, he is top of his division, currently 1 question away from getting into cup final and the only LMS participants that hasnt got knocked out yet. He really sets the bar pretty high...

Speaking of LMS, if I have to pick a favourite to win then mine would be el_che. This dude just stay off the radar while everyone talks about the current top 3 in LMS but he might be able to snatch if from you guys  Tongue

I'd say you are one of the kingsguard  Grin

hosseinimr93 would be my pick for Tyrion. Has somehow managed to pick himself out of any mess -- may not sit on the Throne in the end, but will always be the true Last Man Standing #jinxpls

This actually fits him quite well. or probably Bronn, you know Tyrion's sellsword

Not possible at all, even this is problematic for sports like tennis, snooker and most USA sports that play games every 2-3 days.
Ideally we'd ask questions on Monday evening with ~20h deadline.

That would be optimal for the competition (to have the best possible questions), but would probably be a bit too demanding for players. 2 days is the soft spot, anything longer than that and the quality of the questions/variety of sports drops significantly.

Yeah, the numbers were crazy honestly, and frankly they still are! those were really good times when there was at least not looking too far up to see who’s at the top of the table, I hope I get my mojo back real soon, though!

I’m sure we have some teams that would easily depict the household names if BSFL were to be the real show, you sure know that mafia(s) would be the combination of house Targaryen and Lannister, buwaytress would be better as house Baratheon, but they to win the title first to fit the character, Igebotz as house Stark, from being influential to start then falling from grace, now parading themselves as king in the north (div. 3) to savage whatever they could of their ego.

Well, they say good times can only truly be appreciated when there are bad times. City might just be realising it. An entire generation of Liverpool supporters can attest to it. I guess us BSFL players should be mostly familiar.

I'm not sure I'm a Baratheon (since they once sat on the throne). Perhaps a pretender like the Onion Knight? Always so close, and yet so far. I feel like Slissy is the Melissandre, charming us with his Clubhouse notoriety and slinking away when it matters most.

As we were only focused on our remaining 2 matches as a team then I completely forgot about replying to your PM. After remembering that I have done it as quick as possible. BSFL has turned into such a big organization like this in a very short time. And this is a really incredible thing. As there is a break for the league this week I have called the team for a camp. And I believe we are going to collect 6 points in the remaining 2 matches.

Done! Curious to see what you are going to make out of that, but your logos so far are all looking great. Awesome work!

Guys these weeks without BSFL are pretty boring Wink But I guess my bad, I could have just survived for longer in the Cup.

BSFL has turned into a pretty cool thing over the course of just a few seasons and to me it seems that we have pretty much ironed out all the pitfalls in the rules and possible referee decisions, which makes it a level playing field for everyone. Good work and awesome to know we got the sponsor Sportsbet.io backing us.

We are here to be "punished" or to bet... how many here actually do the process... that is,  they go check the odds and bet, there is a wager issue that needs to be considered in this league somehow, and remove that "nonsense" of eliminating players...
I do not know what you mean by checking the odd and betting, I am sure many here check the odds of possible outcomes before making their pick for questions, but there is no requirement to wager, neither do I think there should be.

Each division should have the "VAR" of wager for negative points, and that's it, you want to get rid of the negative points, 1000$* of wager for each point... eliminating players should not be the objective... the process is lost, well for those of us who really do it...
Eliminating players is not the objective as it is, the objective is to get players to be active as that is what must have kept the competition up to the 5th season.

I think the window to submit answers is short (I have sometimes seen the 2 days flash by after just making a mental note to return to the questions) but working on that will be difficult to do.

Yup, no more Div 3A and Div3B, but a single Division 3 with buy-in fee and better rewards. Div4 will be the real amateur league now - it will be without buyins and will be played for freebets.
I totally forgot about that, but BSFL is growing like crazy and soon they will have to pay the fee to mafia to join the league.
Freebets can be very profitable if used smart so I would not shy away from participating in new Division 4.
Do we have dates when new season is starting?
We need some break for transfer market business. ;(

How did Hhampuz manage to play more games (13) than the rest of us? The updated table did not affect me as I expected; I still top the league despite playing fewer games.
Divison 3A contains 15 people and in each round 1 player is free. That makes people have different numbers of played games.
Hhampuz will be free in round 15. dbshck also has 13 played games and he will be free in round 14.

It may worth mentioning that there are two more people in division 3A that have 13 games played. Dittoup and Joca97 have 13 played games each because they will have a match against Smartvirus who has been kicked out.

Selby currently leading 4.2 against Guodong so he'll probably win and remain England's only hope for the win.
Selby lost his quarter-final match against the chinese player 6-5.
So, no english player reached the semi-finals of 2024 champion of champions and question number 8 is now settled. I am now leading against Dittoup 3-2.

Oh no I mistaken the Northern Ireland flag for the English flag and thought Allen M was English, but after a closer look at the flags, I was disappointed. Un_rank that was a good point for you. Alcaraz is currently one set down.....

@cryptofrka Sorry in advance as I am newbie and have no enough information still trying to learn all about this.

Want to ask what is this buy-in fee for Division 1 and 2 with in next season for the Division 3 as well.

I was trying to understand but fail hopefully you will clear all confusion about these thanks in advance.

Hey there, just ask whatever you need.
We define the buy-in fees at the start of each season. So far it was paid by Division 1 and Division 2 participants, but from next season it will have to be paid by Division 3 participants as well.

Considering that you are a new player, you have to start from the lowest Division - which will be Division 4 next Season - and for you there will not be a buy-in fee.

If you want to jump Divisions, we will introduce an option to buy clubs at the end of this season - but you will have to find a player willing to sell.

The buy-in fee is the participation fee which every player pays to compete for the season, for the current season only Division 1 and 2 paid to participate, the division was free to join/play and that is going to change next season, however I think there will be a new division which will be free to play still.


Elimination rule doesn't seem to strict imo, and I'm sure not a lot of people would feel otherwise, even those who got the hammer. The outcome and how it upsets the standings is what I think it more alarming and concerning especially when the season has almost ended like the current, perhaps you should look into the possibility of letting previous results stand after certain number of rounds have been played.

That would be unfair to those that lost to the guy.
Imagine that you and me are tied for the title, you played against that guy and lost and I'm about to play him in the last round.

I get a free pass and win the title, which is a horrible outcome.

I completely understand, there is no easy that wouldn't affect some people over the other, if the whole result becomes null and avoid they same thing could If had a 1-2 point lead over a player who had lost to the said person, while I did lose against him. I'm only in for taking every potential position in the league with the same importance, so I find it better to alter 12 results for the sake of 3.

I'm sure you guys always review these rules and arrive at some fair ground with these decisions making which I more often than not always agree with.

___________________________

As said, we don't feel it will still be an issue in Season 6. Div3 will have some prizes for almost all places, so there will be more reason to submit.
It will still happen in Div4 - but whatever we do it will remain a problem in the lowest league that rewards only freebets.
