In the last quiz i hate one question, and was the one related to the Brasil formation, after i submited the response, the Brasil Federation says Neymar its not gonna play the last two games of the round for being injury, and im like.. "come on...."

I dont know how i end that second round, but i think its really dificult to cut distance between players and i also think can be really hard to beat each other in knockouts round. I think we can hope very close results.

3th quiz is soo harf I lovedd it 🤣

Hey everyone, unfortunately I haven't been able to be active or watch games much even forum time could not post, but I came back just to post this quickly and take screenshot and send for next quiz.

I sent PM to cryptofrka also for round2, I'll fix everything in 2 days if it was not correct!!

Spain and Argentina still alive so I'm happy, I'm not at all happy with Germany who was my outright promo bet lol, 2 games and no win 

We're reading all the comments and will try to modify the questions a bit going forward. However, we can't change much now and make them easier or harder because we're still in the group and points add up.
If we made it harder now, it would not be fair to people that did badly in the 1st round and vice versa. We will make them harder in the knockouts though.

We also don't want it to be luck-based. Some things will always be, of course - but we are trying to remove the luck element as much as we can.
Some things we have to avoid because for example - some questions are impossible to make before knowing the results so we excluded groups G and H from this round.

Finally, we want to give you some backstory and form some questions around important events - like Lewa scoring his first WC goal in round 2 and Giroud potentially surpassing Henry as France's leading goalscorer in round 3.

Basically - we want you to have between 4-7 correct answers per round (at least in the group) and that's what we have been getting so far. But - as we said - it's the first time something like this has been attempted and we're still figuring what works and what does not.


With all that being said, here's the form with the questions for round 3.


The first 2 games are on Tuesday at 16:00 European time so submit your answers before then.

Users @notblox1 and @jocoser are still missing from the round 2 spreadsheet. One of them did not send the betslip ID through PM and the other one did not participate at all. The one that played - please share your betslip ID with me through PM.

Thanks for your understanding and good luck in qualifying for the knockouts! We did these after a 10 hour trip from Montenegro so we hope you'll like them.

Morocco was excellent against Croatia and I knew they will score against Belgium. Too bad I thought Belgium is also good for at least one goal and played both to score. Even before WC started I expected Belgium to be quite poor and nominated them as the probable disappointment of the group stage. So far they played just as I expected them, hope they will not find a second wind against Croatia. My bracket challenge before WC had Croatia on 1st and Belgium on 2nd spot but after seeing these teams play Morocco deserves that knockout position more.

Belgium played the match against Morocco just like they played the match against Canada - like shit. In the first 20 minutes of the match Croatia - Canada I thought that we will play like we played against Morocco. Fortunately the players woke up and played a good game. If Belgium will play the last match against Croatia like they played the first two matches, Croatia should have no problem winning that game.

Too bad that Japan couldn't beat Costa Rica today. Since Croatia, if they qualify for the knockout round, will play against someone from that group, it would be easier to play against Japan than against Spain or Germany. Let's see how the last match today finishes. If Germany wins, all four teams will have three points after second round.

Morocco was good, that is a fact
Croatia won over Canada, but it is all up to last match with Belgium, not sure, Belgium needs a win, expected a lot more from them, but chances to go are 50:50, IMO
Morocco played with both, did not lost any, and it would be pitty to see them lose to Canada and not pass through, they deserved to be in next round

On the one hand, more complex questions are interesting, but it seems to me that we should not complicate them, because then we will get a pure lottery where our analytics will be useless at all. From the entire competition, only drawing a ticket for good luck will remain. Simple questions are bad for competition because many have the same answers, but since there are many simple questions they give the necessary spread, don't they?

Did you watch the game between Morocco and Belgium? Morocco fought very well and they deserved to win. Eve though my bet was on Belgium to win, I'm glad that Morocco won because they played really good.

As for the Croatia vs. Canada, I really hope that Croatia wins. If we qualify for the next round, I really hope we can manage to qualify as the first in the group because my guess is that Spain will win their group and I don't like to see Croatia play against Spain again because they kicked us out of the EURO 2020

I can't believe today results, first Japan lost from Costa Rica, than Belgium lost easy from Morocco, and I hope Canada by some miracle won't manage to win against Croatia.
So far this appears to be the days of outsiders, and one good thing is that Germany has a shot to come back in big style if they win against Spain.
My bet is on Croatia today, and maybe Cro2 team is now in Qatar supporting their boys.

How on earth you didnt start with Asomo coach Halime Come on Man

Yeah I do not trust Belgium today, and from what I did see of Canada will not be surprised if they win even if my monry would be on Croatia. Feel a lot better about Japan after their first game, and expect Spain yo KO Germany today.

Good luck to Cro2 boys today, depending on whether Spain take me home, I might scratch my itch on Croatia over 1.5 goals.

Early final for japan since Last game against Spain, so they have to win kinda but depens if Spain win against Germany or something like that. Im not good at math 🤣 soo japan ganna win I think. But I never trust Belgium that game might be draw. And Croatia ganna win I believe, kanada plays good football but 0 finish pover I dont think kanada can score

Meanwhile , France broke the curse yesterday! Since 98' , every team champ was eliminated in group stage but not this France squad as they seems ready to defend their title. Also , if somehow Argentina will finish 2nd place in their group ( personally I think they will still finish 1st ) they will face France in next phase.

My picks for today :

Japan to score 2 goals

Belgium to win

Canada to win

Spain to score 2+ goals

Will comeback to edit later on after the day is over.

EDIT 1 : Already over since first pick ...but I think 90% of the bets were screwed by Japan - Costa Rica game.

I know the feeling! I equally thought Lewandoski wouldn't break the curse with a goal, but we were so unfortunate thanks to some clumsy defending from Saudi Arabia after playing so well, anyway we can't win everything.

The problem that comes with favorites winning is that 90% of the players will back them and pick a point but the winning difference will be having the correct score which is too much to ask.

That was one hell of a fight for team Argentina, had they not won the game against Mexico it would have been a different story, but captain Messi inspired the team to victory and survive to play another game .
 

I've been enjoying most of the questions so far and I like that we have one question for every match this round but if I could give a suggestion i'd say put more of those bet builder type of questions.

I also agree with what the others said about the difficulty increase in the questions and if possible, introduce more choices to choose from similar to sportsbet's 4-3 or if it's a yes or no question then the difficulty should be something similar to the Argentina question where it involves two or more scenarios from the match.

@igehhh suggestions make sense too, and in addition going forward, I'd suggest questions like that of Argentina but they're a lot of options 4 or 5 choices to select from, and for the Goal scorers, combinations would make sense too, like will either of two the following players score ago or an assist, then options like Messi will score and provide an assist, then options like just Goal only, Assist Only, or Both and Neither, I'm sure questions like this will likely divide the answers, then you can also use possession range will a team have, could be an underdog or favourite, the with options like Argentina will have 40-44, 45-49, 55-60, more than 60, less than 40 and finally like how long will Paredes play for, then options like; Paredes not to play, less than 20 minutes, between 20-40, between 41-56, 57-74, 75 or more but not full time, and full time.

Guys how are your stats doing in Superbru website after today matches?
It was good day for favorites, except maybe Australia winning against Tunisia, but Poland, France and Argentina did their job well.
Messi scored again and I think Argentina is going to come back even stronger in next match against Poland, and this match will decide first place in Group C.
My main pick for tomorrow is Croatia to win against Canada.

The questions and options are adequate for group stage games; however, I would like to see more questions about goal scorers, goals, most corners, and MOTM awards; the questions should be more difficult, with fewer questions from the R16. Just my $0.02

My answers was lewandoski to score Yes and Argentina to win by 2+No but I change them Last min and both lost 5/3 so far could have been 5/5 but it is what it is
