That's the plan! We watch all Euro games anyway (at least I do, I'm sure Trofo does as well) so why not have some fun with it?
BSFL will keep running normally, there won't be any double questions but BSFL will be heavy on EURO as well.
Very good.
Soon you will have to hire assistants to help you with everything Wink  
EURO is starting on 14 June, is that mean that LMS Last Man Standing questions should be answered on the same day, same as we do in BSFL?

Regarding the logo - it's only a 1-month long competition. If you want to showcase your skills though, we'll gladly add it Smiley
I am busy this days but I have one month to create something, and I had an idea to make small changes with EURO 2024 logo, but nothing complicated.

Not spending that much time on forum in recent days, so, missed this thread and noticed it only now. Offcourse that I'm in, how can I miss such things. Submitted form already. BTW, as I see in OP of BSFL, it also will go as usual on the same time, I guess it also will be mostly about EURO.
Also, now don't remember who made it on EURO 2020, but are you or someone is planning to make good old prediction pool for EURO 2024? Though, knockout tournament pools is going in worst possible way for me and I should join Cheesy.

Is Crofia also playing? Wink

Playing is for the weak, I'm winning.

On a more serious note, yeah - we plan to. This is something I wanted to play for years already, same as BSFL. Would be a bummer to have to watch from the sidelines.
As you from BSFL already know, in case we come close to the prizes we'll create some new rules for us so that there's no doubt in legitimacy of our answers.

Mafia's got you covered Cool

Good question and the answer will vary based on how people approach it. I will pay all the way to knockouts for sure, because there's a lot of points still in play and I'll feel I can catch up even if it's 5 points difference.
If I'm 5 points behind in the final I'll be more careful ofc, but somebody will surely be closer than that.

The competition is purposely made in a way in which early rounds don't mean much. In 3 group rounds max you can get is 30 points, and in the other rounds it's an additional 75 points to play for.
Preliminary round is also something to take into consideration. If you're 5 points away from the leader but have better answers to some of the initially posted questions, that initial round might help you win it after all.

Thanks for clarifying. So it is meant to be like that then, although I still feel it's better to wipe the points each stage because of the buyin I realize it's the same thing in poker after all, you're free to buy in but in poker you have almost a chance to catch even the guy with 5x bigger bankroll if you know how to bluff lol

Looking forward to this one guys, honestly Superbru pools are plain so it's really nice to have extra on top. Don't get me wrong I love every season competition and I know most people prefer easy style of picking but it's great to have different formats.

Nobody is going to spend that much, if you are last every round, no point in re buying, you will not get to first place Smiley Rough estimate, I don't think anyone will buy in more than 3 times and that is pushing it.

Now that I read responses above, I understand better! Definitely won't make sense to rebuy if you're too far away from a realistic first place. But as cryptofrka explained further, there are many more points to fight for in the latter rounds, so yeah. I guess a buy-in or two makes sense if you're in with a shout!

We aim for 50+, which means that with re-buys the top reward might increase quite a bit. I will surely re-buy to eternity if needed but as Trofo said, 2 or 3 might be the soft spot.

If left to my devices, I buy in against all odds. Good thing I'm not these days thinking like an old man.

Firstly. the BTC prize is just 1, for the best winner right? Only 1 winner so it's the guy with most points from all the rounds.

Ideally, yes. It might happen that 2 or more players are tied with the same amount of points, then the prize will be equally split between them and we'll have Last Men Standing Grin


    ...
  • The points are calculated after the final round and the winner is the person with the most points collected. If there are multiple players with the same amount of points, the prize will be equally shared among them.

Secondly, then, I guess, the re-buy-in won't make sense if you have too few points right? I'm just trying to think of a reason why someone would buy in again since if you are kicked out, you are with very big distance from 1st already. I would for sure rebuyin if it's a format of like the old Sportsbet Bracket Challenge. Everyone who makes it starts with zero points again.

But if #1 has 10 points and I got 5 in round 1, why would I buy-in again to chase 5 points?

This is important to ask because let's say, before the final, if 1 guy is too many points ahead, the rest will feel they will not want to re-buy for 5mbtc, then nobody rebuys and the "Final" is not exciting.

Coming in from BSFL of course so I LOVE THIS Smiley

But, let me clarify. I guess I understand the rules but just want to ask, sorry Tongue

Finally, what if many people are tied for lowest points, how do you eliminate players? Penalty question? Not sure I understood this. The rule says

All teams with the lowest amount of points per round.
Tackling your questions in opposite way. All teams with lowest points seems pretty understandable to me. If the lowest acore is 2, all that scored 2 are eliminated.

Regarding rebuys, it is on each of us to judge if it is worth it. Just remember these questions are always in balance not like in Superbru. So leader is far from guaranteed to get good score. It is quite probable that someone gets 8 points one week and then gets 1 point in the next round and find himself eliminated.

There is also at least 1000$ free bets pool to be split on all that reach the final. Will be a lot of tactics in final rounds for sure.

I have a question about buy-ins. Are we allowed to buy-in only when we get kicked out? For example, if someone gets kicked out in the first round, he can buy-in only for the second round or can he skip a round or two? I guess not, but just want to be sure.

You have to buy for the next round. Anything else is pointless for you anyway, because the person with most points in all rounds combined is the winner - getting to the final doesn't give you anything other than the freebet and there's no way you get the 1st place if you miss a full round.

Yeah, that makes sense. I forgot the part where the winner will be a person who gets most points in all the questions. It's different than what we have in the BSFL so that's why I was confused. Thanks for clarification.

Again, I must say thank you for organizing such competitions to you two and to Sportsbet for sponsoring it. I don't like pools, but I love this kind of competitions.

Well I answered yes on the signup form wether I understand or not but I probably only get around 80% of it lol.

That's good enough, we'll explain in more detail if needed when we start.
So far it seems that everybody understands, but it's people from BSFL so far so that's normal.

We'll see how the new ones answer Grin

You guys are going to be very busy this summer If EURO 2024 competition is going to be active in the same time as BSFL league.

If it goes well, it will probably run as a side-competition in each BSFL season where players from all divisions can participate together.

More about that if this goes well though Grin

The format sounds great to me! I never thought about getting more points for choosing the riskier answer, but it makes sense. Just like with betting - your earnings go up if you go with the riskier option.

  • Initial entry is free for members of all SB sponsored competitions (paid pools + BSFL, not free bet contests), otherwise it’s 1 mBTC.

and this is why folks you always join SB sponsored pools. Either join one of them then you will receive lots if benefits from Sportsbet ! not to mention chances to win all those prizes across tournaments

If we asked in BSFL who quailfies to the final, Real or Bayern, most would pick Real - and the bookies give it 1.50 odds. But if we awarded 1 point for Real and 2 for Bayern, some people would risk with Bayern.

These kind of questions we will have in the preliminary round (that is the one that will be settled only at the end and have questions like winner, best goalscorer etc), in R16 and in quarterfinal round.
With this we want to keep it exciting even if you're 5 points behind - this way it gives you more options to try and catch up.

Well I answered yes on the signup form wether I understand or not but I probably only get around 80% of it lol. So in summary, it should be pretty similar to BSFL with abit twist on it so basically you just need. Well either way, Im really excited to see which one of us will ended up taking all those prize home though. Its alot of money at stake lol[/list]

Like i said in the BSFL post count me in and thanks for bringing another majestic contest.

As far as i read is a combination of BSFL and the system used in PotB of UCL made by Buwaytress or im missing something?.

Not really, in buwa's Pot B you could pick the games. Here you'll still have to answer all the questions, like in regular BSFL.
In some rounds (just 3 out of 8 - we want to test it for the future without risking too much) there will be just a few questions that will be inclined to one option, with a riskier option available for more points.

If we asked in BSFL who quailfies to the final, Real or Bayern, most would pick Real - and the bookies give it 1.50 odds. But if we awarded 1 point for Real and 2 for Bayern, some people would risk with Bayern.

I expect to see 30+ people minimum from BSFL and pools alone. I'll probably buy-in after the inevitable "getting kicked out" phase, 9.5mbtc set aside for buy-ins -- that has got to be the most premium fee on forum, but the format and prize makes complete sense.

Perhaps a question because of the possible tight deadlines -- what if the buy-in to deadline timeframe is very small? Just thinking of possible Bitcoin network run-ins here plus timezone. Will affect me as I'll be in a very different timezone during the tourney, I suppose one should be able to request buy-in and pay perhaps with a grace period?

We aim for 50+, which means that with re-buys the top reward might increase quite a bit. I will surely re-buy to eternity if needed but as Trofo said, 2 or 3 might be the soft spot.

Prizes include drinks!! ??

Sure, but the check is paid by the..
