Ok guys, here comes the results from Round 1 as well as schedule for round 2 and updated tables. Doing this from holiday on small ultrabook so if I messed something, don't worry it will be fixed Smiley
It is forgiven if you are on some ski resort now and if you send some redacted pictures later  Grin

Good start for me in first round, and I already sent answers for second round, so ulven better get ready to fight!
Guys please in future don't ask questions again like starting eleven from some clubs, it takes a lot of time and this is not going to be easy for anyone  Sad

Slava Ukraini!
Left my predictions for 2nd round. Predicting squads of teams isn't my strong side, so, just went without doing many changes from recent games. Nice that you included question about Six Nations.

Great with a good start with 3 points!

I watched the NBA All stars game and it was very entertaining.. It was only D fox who didn't get a point in the game.
I'm glad that I decided not to sacrifice my sleep and didn't watched it. In past it used to be more cmpetetive and interesting. Now I watched highlights and there is just some 1 on 1 plays, while all other players are literally standing and chilling. Not my stuff.

MAAManda is active in other threads, I actually remember seeing a post from Bundesliga or Ligue 1 so I pinged him a DM.
I already sent him a PM after he missed round one in the same bunch as I notified other 2 people that forgot.

Thanks guys for reminding me by sending forum DMs, but I totally missed the first round of questions, I didn't even have time to open the forums back then, when I read the DM from @Trofo, I totally missed the time to answer (BTW, sorry @Trofo I didn't even reply to your message Roll Eyes). It was @Jinetics1111 luck that I didn't participate in the first round, and for this round, I've answered all the answers.

Looking for ward to taking down Trofo this week  Wink
I guess you can dream about it but we both know you don't have a chance  Grin A bit more realistic I just put my picks in and I feel a bit more confident about it than in first round. That being said I am only sure I will be a tougher job then the one you had in round 1.

Love the banter so far, seems like H2H format was a good decision, it does make it much more personal. Liverpool - Real should be the beauty of CL games this week, can't wait for that one.

Haha alright bro see you at the finish line Grin

CasperBDG You should consider yourself lucky Grin because the outcome might have been different if I had entered my Tuesday questions. That is not to imply that you don't deserve the victory, but you were already at a handicap of +3 when I began;

Jeremypwr LET'S DO THIS I'm excited about it because we're both hoping for our first victory. Do the upcoming fixtures have a certain day and time? I want to avoid bad luck this time, so I'll set up a reminder. Cro2 team enjoy your vacations.

You can always find the deadline for submitting the form in the 3rd post of the thread.
Cutoff is before the CL games, it will vary based on the sports we find each week.

I watched the NBA All stars game and it was very entertaining.. It was only D fox who didn't get a point in the game.

He played like 10 min, right? Amazing that he didn't even shoot in such an open game.

New week with new questions so this will be exciting. I have read through them and it will be difficult again.
I'll probably have to google a bit before I give my answer😄

And phew about winning, GG to jayce!

GG to you too, slaman29!

Before this competition, the only tennis men players I knew are Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic. Fun yet challenging. Great job by Cro2 team, they able to get me learn other sports besides football and basketball. Just sent the answer for round #2 and look forward to see the result against a big name LFC_Bitcoin.

Anw enjoy your holiday Trofo.


A little dizzy Would you give me a hint on how to answer to question number nine?

It's tricky indeed. I had to check the game history in their last 5 matches.

Uh... This week will be hard as I'm facing the last week best player in the division 2. I hope that vd309 won't give 8 correct answers again. Well... Good luck to all of us. And indeed the questions are great!

Already submitted my answers and I can tell you this is not a two-minute thing Cheesy Not that I want to complain, it just shows that we also need to put some thought into our choices.

Guys have fun coming up with the starting squad for Chelsea. I just realized how big of a squad they have and how much Graham Potter changes it up from game to game. That's almost a lottery unless you have Graham Potter's phone number and are a good friend of him! Tongue
You need 2 minutes to do it if you are a sports know it all or if you just want to do the bare minimum. Of course you need more time if you plan on researching some stuff. That is actually one of our goals, to make you guys more knowledgeable about sport and maybe just maybe make you like them even more.

MAAManda is active in other threads, I actually remember seeing a post from Bundesliga or Ligue 1 so I pinged him a DM. Naughty!
I already sent him a PM after he missed round one in the same bunch as I notified other 2 people that forgot. They acted immediately and entered their answers for the remaining questions while MAAManda did not even answer my PM. Doesn't really matter, everyone gets 3 strikes and after that it is bye, bye for good.

This sort of competition would really suffer if somebody chooses rounds when he participates so we have to be firm and exclude players like that soonest possible. We are not counting late submissions as strike, unless it becomes a pattern for somebody.

You do put quite some effort into the questions, respect! You also hit the sweet spots in terms of getting people to think "damn it, it could be either one" and that is not easy for those writing the questions.

Cool questions indeed... well done guys! there look so deceptively simple yet are as tricky as ever. I'll probably put my picks in later or tomorrow (hopefully no more free dumb answers as in Round 1 haha).

I didn't expect to see a "goal difference" so that makes it look pretty special, heh heh. As I've said before, I don't think there's any advantage/disadvantage in making answers visible, but... glad it's not fixed.

Hey there, yes, we agree. Trofo could not change it from the hotel, but we already commented it here:

MAAManda - Jinetics1111 ended up as 0-7. MAAManda did not submit answers and has received his 1st warning, the result will be written as 0-3 and not 0-7.

It will be the default football forfeit result, so 3-0.
I already changed it as it can be seen from the results. Problem is I took a screen shot of the table before making that change. It will be counted as 3:0. If I forget to put new table now, it will be seen on next week table anyway.

Ah ok I overlooked that! This certainly makes it a fairer competition.

Looking forward to the next round Smiley

Hi guys,

question no. 7 says:

7. Atletico Madrid was always known for their granite defense but this season is a bit different and we can see them conceding more than usual. They are hosting a good Ath. Bilbao team, will both teams score in this game?

My answer was "NO", they are not going to score both in this game, which was correct. The game ended 1-0 for Atletico. How is that answer wrong

There is nothing to worry about mate,

Probably a mistake, don't read to much into it just yet, I'm Trofo and Cryptofrka will take more than twice to go through the questions and every answers before the final table and scores are updated.



Hey no no, I wasn't worrying, just surprised that nobody brought it up yet. So no worries! Wink

Now I would like to ask a question and make a suggestion: in the table for Division 3, for example, Jinetics1111 now leads with a SF : SA = 7 : 0 score. I bring this up now because I could also hope for MAAManda to now show up again and I take home a bunch of points as well. I assume that when people have equal H2H points, the SF : SA score will be relevant.

For the person who did submit answers, it is of course right to get the 3 points. But the SF : SA statistics get totally screwed and don't reflect a realistic result anymore. Wouldn't it make more sense if instead of SF : SA , you put down the freebet points? Those are actually the number of answers somebody really got right. But if the SF : SA statistics decide in the end, the bottom line is that if you take this day as an example, a play does not only get the 3 points but also points on top for even wrong answers. If you think about a theoretical H2H situation between Jinetics1111 and me, he literally receives 2 points for the division for exactly the same wrong answers that I gave. That doesn't really make sense.

In soccer leagues it is usually a 2:0 and 3 points when one team breaks the rules or doesn't show up. 3 points, again, are totally correct, and relatively, the 2:0 is also fine, but when you look at the standings in the table, wouldn't you want the person with the most correct answers and the most points be at the top in the end?

After all I don't care that much but since you guys said that you want to keep this competition running for several seasons to come, I think it is at least worth to think about. Perhaps you could add freebet points as a column and make that one the decisive statistic instead of "SD" if two people have the same number of points. Even though someone can still earn easy 3 points when the opponent doesn't show up, but there is still more weight on getting your answers right than just submitting them and get points for wrong answers as well when the opponent doesn't show up.

This is not all too important for Division 3 as there is not as much on the line, but imagine two guys are equal in points in Division 1 and rank 1 submitted less correct answers than rank 2, but still got points because two times an opponent didn't show up.

Hope you get my point here and I hope I got the rules right so this makes sense.

Cheers!
