Really unpredictable result on NBA game, Celtics wipe out Bucks, and Giannis doesnt scores so much points.

Well we are nearby to the comeback of the football leagues and we are gonna know if Ten Hag surprises us or anyone of us make a perfect 11/11 starting line up.

In other things, guys i see Direwolf answers are now up, so you can show mines    i dont remember what i put i some questions.

The spreadsheet has been updated.

The basketball question was particularly difficult to check, so we'd appreciate if you all would check it for yourself and your opponent as well.
The number of points won for that question can be seen in column O and will be deleted in a few days and replaced by '1' for the 4 players that will receive a point here in their race for the freebet.
Please let us know if you find any mistakes.

I've also marked the tennis questions that are incorrect.
If you have Sinner and Alcaraz in the final and it is marked as incorrect, it is not a mistake.
They are both still in the draw but are playing their semifinal against each other, so whatever the outcome your answer will be wrong.

For tennis - you can easily check the draws before submitting the answers. It was known that they cannot play each other in the final from last week.

Yes, I presume they didn't check the schedule bracket before entering their picks; maybe, this will serve as a heads-up for next tennis question.

Sorry mate you got that one as invalid answer since you didn't follow the format properly. @arallmuus


Oh not again! ......

It is what it is mate. No worry, its my fault as I should have paid more attention to the question  . Well but there is a chance that Alcaraz might not make it to the final so fingers cross from me


Really excited, I might have better luck in the cup instead of regular league !

Anyway, I noticed that I am tied (yellow colored mark) with @igebotz on #4 question so does that mean both of us get 1 point on that question or both of us is not getting any point?

This really became a question, that despite all saying the same names, it was really a question of order in the choice.

I didn't check all the players, but can you tell if someone got it right in all players/positions?

I forgot to look at that column! Thanks for the reminder.

It wasn't really easy to get 100% right on this question, because global averages don't automatically mean equal in a specific game.
This question was interesting, I didn't find it a difficult question to answer, but at the same time a challenging and difficult question to get right.

Yes I am but please no more questions about players and scored points, it created a lot of confusion and it needs lot of work for answering and checking.
Better try to think of questions that are simple with answers that can be verified from many sources.
I am saying this for one more reason, because I am losing this round so far, and my hope is on tennis final  
Pray for me.

Believe me, that's the first thing I checked - if the decision will influence Trofo's or my outcome.
It does not, because even if we switch Horford and Brogdon I get 2.5 points instead of 3 (I have Holiday in 4th, not Horford) and still win my h2h duel against entebah. Trofo is free in this round so his picks are irrelevant.

I agree that such rules should be more strictly defined, and they will be. It's an expansive contest to run, we're finding our feet a bit here as well.

To answer how the grading was done - well, if you play less minutes and score the same points, it's logical that you should be ahead, no? You actually did perform better in that category against the guy with the same amount of points.
It is irrelevant how many assists you have (or whatever is the differentiator on your screenshot - maybe even alphabetical?) - assists are heavily dependable on players position for example and alphabetical would be plain stupid.

I'd never risk my forum reputation by making myself win a question in a competition I'm running for Sportsbet, that'd be a really, really stupid thing to do



Most of the questions are like that - but we have to try some alternatives as well - otherwise we risk that the same pattern of questions repeats.
We also have to implement some h2h questions - and these are hard when using standard format.

Also, we said at the beginning that to be the best, some effort will have to be done. To be at the top in Div1, you need some time to answer questions and if you are ok with being in Div2 - you can try guessing some that you don't feel like researching.

you guys are doing an amazing job and keep it up😁 It was just an example of what can happen when we can't confirm things officially😁
I'm still happy that I managed a draw 😃

Now Medvedev is ready for the final, so now I hope that Alcaraz will also make it 😁
