We're glad you like the questions

The answers to the questions are private - you cannot see what your opponent answered so you cannot copy it. We make it visible only after submissions are over.
For example - we have already started to receive answers for Round 2 questions - but they are hidden for you.

Guys, can I just say, amazing questions. I don't even know how to answer without Googleing for a couple of them lol.

And phew about winning, GG to jayce!

Seeing how many of me and jayce later questions aligned....I just thought about something, reading up about the comments about revealing picks.

Let's say you have no time that week to research anything and just need 1 point to win the final day. Or you know 1 sport really well and know your opponent does not.

Then you can copy every single answer for draw, or copy every single answer except the sport you know the best.

Another case: you notice the other guy answered 1 question wrong. Like the Napoli pick I made, automatically wrong. Then same , copy all the answers except in that question he answered wrong.

Isn't that one way to be "game" this to take advantage or seeing answers?

I don't even have time to do that, but I now sort of agree with others about revealing picks, it could put the guy who answers first at disadvantage.

This time it's much easier to understand what a H2H question means. For the ninth question, if you guess more players in the starting 11 than your opponent from this week, you get a point and your opponent doesn't. I think that H2H questions are more appropriate for the competition since every week each of us is competing against a certain user, not against everyone else.

You need to write down 11 players that you think will start the game for Chelsea against Tottenham.
The point will be given to the player that gets more names correct.

_______________________________

We calculated the results this morning, please recheck everything. It is the 1st round and we aren't in optimal working conditions this week
Trofo will upload the tables and post the next round of fixtures in the afternoon.

Some explanations:
- if the answer is marked yellow, it means that both opponents have the answer that is equal and that it is a draw
- some players have incorrect answers marked as green, and some players correct answers marked as yellow. That is because the duels are head to head and depend only on 2 players when calculated - so sometimes if the answer is not the best one, it can still win a point.

Free bets:
Points for the free bets are calculated differently (per Division). This means that for example answer 'Benfica' to question 6 gives a point to anybody who answered like that, and all other answers are incorrect, irrelevant of the h2h duel.

Freebet winners for this round are:
Division 2 - vd309 (20$)
Division 3 - mv1986 (10$)
Division 1 - Harkorede and cls63 both have 7 points. In the next round whoever gets more will win a 30$ freebet.

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.

Wow! I managed to secure my first win. That's great! When I saw that most of you answered "yes" in the last question, I thought that a draw would be the best I can end up with, but that question saved me in the end. Now we go on to the second week to start a winning streak Where can we find our opponent for the second week? Sorry if I didn't see it, it's Monday morning

Before the referee blows the whistle, you can probably guess who the key players for Chelsea FC on the field are. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.
Is the list of players made for the second round? I would like to know who my opponent will be 

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

We will always double check but there is also always a possibility that some mistake passes trough. If something looks wrong or isn't clear enough let us know and we will rectify or explain better. But bear in mind that we are actually working on live table so if you are checking something while work is still being done there could be some stuff "errors" that would get fixed anyway.

Questions for next round have just gone live, you can start answering. Deadline is Tuesday 6PM GMT, 2 hours before CL games start. Tennis question could be influenced (not likely) before that time but we wanted to include it anyway.

I will post H2H match ups for new week as well as final results for past week tomorrow.

Doesn't this affect the general standings against other players, or scoring system is based on the duel results?

Never mind just saw the Competition rules, we all fighting for the precious 3points in these duels..

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 there, it is not. We're still doing the spreadsheet


We'll explain it tomorrow. In short - it was a head to head question against your opponent and if you both chose Benfica, it is a draw.

Looking at how the duel scores are at the moment, division 3 doing the most  

Jinetics1111 with a solid 7....jeez the lad must be a sporting guru or able to see the future, great start !

On the bright side looking at the average scores of division 2 ,I think this was the toughest group to be in... let's see how the last two questions go with the NBA All-Star Game.

Team Cro2 am looking at the Benfica answer why do we have this showing green for some users and others its in a different color?

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?

Best way to start the competition. I didn't want to kick your ass too hard in first round and also did not want to be in points deficit from the beginning

It is much harder when we have to actually answer these questions, maybe we do ask a it too much sometimes but that is why this is a league made for true sports fanatics 

We'll settle for a draw it seems
I did not expect Liverpool to do so well, but the game went into our hands with early goals and Pope sending off.

I'm more furious about the PSG pick, Benfica was the obvious choice and I don't know what I was trying there.

Whoops, I knew I forgot something when scrolling on that first page haha. I normally even have recently visited pages but on mobile it's impossible to see the URLs properly.

I think cryptofrka is one of those pragmatic supporters. They know how bad the team is, where as I simply can't bring myself to ever bet against my team. It's a really bad disease.

Only match left of interest to me is Atletico. It's the only answer my BSFL opponent has differently and will decide the winner of this round.

What is this guys? I went to holidays and you let the thread fall down almost to the bottom of the page. Not good enough

Sure was nice to see Liverpool get those 4 shots on target yesterday. A bit surprised that my colleague cryptofrka managed to miss this one as a big Liverpool supporter. Seems like most of the pool knew better after all. Would love to put more salt in the wound but he destroyed me on Tennis question so I will better not push too much.

Lol I known right....

When I looked at the name I really thought this would have been one of those walkovers and possibly get a six-love along the way. but these lesser known guys always carry a punch in them and Tsitsipas got to be shown the door and went on to win against former champion Wawrinka   this lad seems to be the real deal!

At this point I see a champion coming from either of the two players playing against each other (Medvedev vs Dimitrov).

Good vacation. It's important to spend time with family offline.

And it's not addictive, it's just using the times without offline activity, to go through the forum and talk.

Yikes, Tsitsi, but I no longer look at him with any love and hope, he's disappointed me far too often in past two years my heart's broken. Even tried to woo me back with the last GS but of course, Djoko a step too far.

My Week1 opponent has the same picks as me anyway (Tsitsi, Medvedev), so it's not going to change our outlook.
