The spreadsheet is visible now.

DireWolfM14 did not submit yet so darxiaomi's answers are hidden.

Good luck!

Just wondering this, is there any chance to actually edit my #10 answers as I only put two names that will make it to the final without putting any name for the winner. Well if it couldnt be changed then its fine for me as well no biggie

@igebotz : best of luck to you although I really need to win this. Heck yeah, I just realized that even if I win this round then I'd still be on #11 Roll Eyes

. This is what I get for being so lame on this league

How many points I am getting if I answered first question for Round 7 correctly? Grin

_{This is a trick question.}

This round was harder for me to make predictions and I had to dig and find more information, worst thing for me is picking starting eleven players or player names in basketball.
My opponent in this round is dbshck and we are fighting for third position in Division 2, but other players are not far behind.
BSFL league reminds me a lot on EFL Championship league Wink

Hi vd309, it's time to remove that 0 and put a 1. L:1

Damn it, I almost forgot to send my answers. I wrote them yesterday but didn't send them because I wanted to see if there will be some last minute changes with Manchester roster or in Miami (tennis). I remembered in time to send the answers so let's see what this week will bring us.

That said, it took me way longer than I expected to come to a conclusion on certain amount of questions, and that's with knowing my opponent, the toughest question had to the Man United XI, knowing what I know about the current players available, and my perceived Ten Haag's preference as a coach too literally didn't help matters.

Same here, it took me quite some time to answer that question. Even though I watch EPL regularly, I seriously dislike Man Utd and everything related to that club (trauma goes all the way back to 1999 CL final lol) and very rarely watch any of their games so I had to do some serious research to figure out their possible starting 11 vs Newcastle.

I can imagine how more interesting all this will get when I actually start playing against someone.

P.S. Guys,almost every week we get tennis questions, it's all good, but please show some lover for WTA Wink

.

Really? You would prefer to toss a coin to write finalists instead of looking at the draw and picking 2 players in best form at the moment?

Just kidding but as a mental excercise I invite you to answer the same question but for WTA here in the thread. I am thinking that same question on WTA side is way more difficult. I will try as well.

Rybakina-Sabalenka, Sabalenka

Despite not being a tennis fanatic nor place bet on it often, I'd say I prefer it to having to guess Man Utd starting XI for Sunday game week versus Newcastle, and I think I'd have done pretty well in the previous questions, if they had counted especially the one including the semi-finalists.

The women UCL 2nd leg fixtures is another crazy one, that was just a coin flip versus settling for a wider margin or just pure guessing living it at the hands of fate, if there is anything as such.

NBA prediction is still easier for me to choose from imo, less than 70% sure on that, but then I'd fancy my chances.

I see a lot of confusion around this, let's try this way:

Options are:

1) 1 or 2 different goalscorers, all from the same team
This means for example Spain winning 2-0 with Torres and Morata as goalscorers, or winning 6-0 with Torres scoring 5 goals and Olmo scoring once

2) 3 or more different goalscorers, all from the same team
This means for example Spain winning 4-0, Torres scores 2, Morata scores 1 and Olmo scores 1 (or Scotland scores an own goal)

3) 1 or 2 different goalscorers, from both teams combined
This means for example a 2-1 win for Spain in which Morata scores 2 times and Che Adams scores once, or a 4-1 Scotland win in which Che Adams scores 4 goals and McTominay scores an own goal for Spain

4) 3 or more different goalscorers, from both teams combined
This means any result where both teams score and has more goalscorers - example, a 2-1 win for Spain with goalscorers Olmo and Morata for Spain and Adams for Scotland

5) no goalscorers
Self - explanatory

It is not that I didn't know what to conclude from the answers provided, but someone could have argued against your case and I must confess I couldn't criticize anyone who would have done that. A specification for "from both teams combined" could have been "no team keeps a clean sheet", as it also subsumes the own goal scenario.

But all good, I wrote my concern in public to provide a level playing field for all competitors.

Edit: question 3 refers to regular time only?

Not that I would prefer, but it would be interesting to give a try. And actually there is very few players in current WTA tour who can perform conistent well, especially when Swiatek is out, so, there isn't so many options to pick.
After looking at remaining draw, I won't be original and I go with same final, just different winner.

Good to hear that now it's clear enough Grin

We have to be a bit creative with the questions and try to introduce different types - otherwise we risk that it becomes a bit boring soon.
Our options here are still limited but we try to test out different formats as well so sometimes we are aware that we might have to explain something a bit more.

________________________

I'd also like to state that although this is BSFL - a league for the best sports fanatics, what we're really trying to build here is a gambling community.
Throughout BSFL we hope that you'll get to know each other better, have some sidebets and friendly banter, and some of you will be able to meet SB team, maybe get invited to a hangout or a game, receive some merch etc.

So whatever your knowledge is, if you follow sports we want you here. If you don't but want to, we want you here. If you just want to have some friendly banter, we want you here Grin

Welcome 1miau! I have seen your name before but probably not in gambling, so another great addition. Trust me, this place is not all full of experts. Just look at me, participating almost every pool almost since beginning and I am bottom of Div 1 table Wink

Everywhere I look Alcaraz is the favorite, but didn't he have a bad injury last time and aren't veterans like Sinner better chance at going to final? I wonder how tennis bookies make their odds. In football you have sort of better size of results to look at but tennis you meet a guy maybe 5 times in a few years max.

Quote from: mv1986 on March 28, 2023, 03:39:16 AM

in most cases. Logically, answer 3 is strictly better than answer 1 as answer 3 contains answer 1 as a statistical subset. Every outcome that validates answer 1 also validates answer 3, but not vice versa. Why pick answer 1 at all?

And yes I was initially quite confused by the goalscorer question and like you I thought answer 3 is better than answer 1, as it contains the same outcome, because of mathematical combination! But then I understood it the way cryptofrka has finally clarified.

In other words, this is basically Goalscorer betting, with clean sheet or no clean sheet

Guys correct me if I am wrong as I am not a native speaker, but in question 2 there is no semantic/logical difference between the answer 1:

"1 or 2 different goalscorers, all from the same team"

and answer 3:

"1 or 2 different goalscorers, from both teams combined"

in most cases. Logically, answer 3 is strictly better than answer 1 as answer 3 contains answer 1 as a statistical subset. Every outcome that validates answer 1 also validates answer 3, but not vice versa. Why pick answer 1 at all?

"..., from both teams combined" allows for a Spain 2 + Scotland 0 combination the same way this outcome would validate answer 1.

If 2 Spanish players score, will it be a tie if one selects answer 1 and one selects answer 3?

Hahah, we'll give it a try maybe. Trofo will have to ask the question though, I don't know 2 female tennis players in total.
But I do agree - if we're to introduce some female athletes tennis is the go-to sport for that.

Quote from: Igebotz on March 27, 2023, 05:02:05 PM

I have another observation about question number 5. The options are correct, but I am concerned about the wording for non-English native speaker like myself and my brothers.

Code:

City to win, Liverpool doesn’t score

City win to Nill (bookies terms) sounds better?

It does in bookie terms, yeah. The problem is that we don't know how the bookies call it in German, French or Turkish - so it might be less clear for most participants to understand.
This way it doesn't follow the english bookie terms but is quite easy to understand for all.
I think both would be fine though.

Hello, dear Trofo and cryptofrka

I appreciate your invite to your competition very much as I'm always in favor of new incentives brought to our forum and your Bitcointalk Sports Fanatics League is an outstanding example for such a nice incentive and a big contribution for our forum in general.
However, as discussed with Trofo, I believe I don't stand any chance against established gamblers and Bitcointalk Sports Fanatics, so it's quite certain that it won't end well for me to participate here. Cheesy

Yes, I'm interested in soccer and mabye I'll join your next round of Champions League (pool) and I'll follow your league results here, too (without participating to avoid being a hopeless backmarker Tongue

).
Maybe I'm lucky and I'm getting a Top 10 position in our Formula 1 pool at least. Cheesy

But once again big KUDOS for arranging Bitcointalk Sports Fanatics League, of course.

Bitcointalk can be proud to have members like Trofo and cryptofrka arranging such opportunites. Wink

Cheers and thanks for the kind words. It doesn't really matter who's first and who's last - this is meant to be a fun competition that kinda helps you track weekly sports events.
If you change your mind, we'd love to have you so you know where we are

I spent too much time researching some of the questions compared to the previous rounds and I hope this time I could get better results as I need to get my second win and stop missing out on some points. Grin

BOL to my opponent joker_josue, both of us will need all those three points to move away from the bottom three.
