Yes indeed im gonna read all your opinions, and see what i can take to improve the contest. As i said it seems easy but when you enter in some deep it becomes more dificult.

And some things now seems silly but when we enter in the late stage it can be used to gain some serious advantage.


About the Superbru idea i dont ended up understanding, because as far as i know i cant made a multileague private pool, and also how i know who picked who?.

Penalties are always a shitty thing. Show me a better way and I'm all up for it, but not if it spoils the fun - example, if picks remain hidden.

I agree, plus the thing of having traffic in the topic is also important, not so much for us but is a must for the sponsors.


Well some teams of top are not so good in this round, Liverpool again not showing so much, and both Bayern cancels between them.

In other news we can say WELCOME CHELSEA!!!!! for the next rounds.

There is no good way to handle late submissions. Penalties suck but it is even worse without them. We did a lot of thinking and tinkering with penalties in BSFL and there simply isn't a perfect solution. And people will try to use loopholes if you let them, don't kid yourself.

:://:: we are a group of how many...? 16 people, we are players who are here basically by invitation and fun.

I'm not trying to cheat with any of my proposals, I don't know why the subject of cheating has to come to light, or loopholes.

What an end of the game of Osasuna-Barcelona, Osasuna making a huge win in his home, and Barcelona scoring "only" two goals, they were pretty close to score a few mores.

Bad round for me, i was expecting City making fun of Newcastle but that was not happening.

Nobody says you are, but somebody might. And considering it's a paying contest the rules must be defined in advance and organizers have to make sure the integrity of the competition is intact.
We're trying to give ideas that reduce the penalty so if you have some, feel free to share. But if darxiaomi wants this to grow, it has to be serious from the start and he should not cater to people who forget but to those that are serious and committed. At least that's what I think.

Next season he might have 35 people here - some of them might be here only because they feel they can exploit the loopholes.

Which team will be expelled? Tottenham or the Premier League has 5 teams?
It's crazy that Chelsea is now a great team, Palmer is a valuable asset to the Club.

It's a shame for Barcelona to be mocked by Osasuna, this round I was unlucky to pick the team that scored the fewest goals.

Bad round for me, i was expecting City making fun of Newcastle but that was not happening.

Due to the absence of De Bruyne and Rodri, Manchester City could not score more goals.

Here are the results of the BUN, interesting... the two most frequent teams failed but the other 3 teams came out with 10 goals...

Let's leave the discussion for another season, but I emphasize again, you cannot use pejorative adjectives if you want a high-level discussion, for example, the fact that I did not send a response (not the five) does not indicate that I am not committed and even less serious, as you wrote earlier. Be careful, sometimes a few commas, a few periods, the grammar can sound high-sounding, and that is not the case here with any of the guests at this CLGM, which is where we found ourselves with this topic.

I had no intention of offending anyone, there's no reason to feel called out or targeted in any way. The goal here is to give our views for the betterment of the competition.
In the end it will be the decision of the organizer, I will play and have fun regardless.

I was just sharing an opinion based on experience - if you give people a chance to take advantage of unclear rules, they will eventually do that. You know it.
So let's put our heads together and find a solution that does not penalize heavily those that are late, but crucially, a solution in which there's absolutely no way to get an advantage for being late.

Seems like another good round for me, maybe even a freebet?

[darbitmobilerecovery]

Well guys another round has gone, and we have the winners, cryptofrka vd309 and saint loup have the same points (17), but for tiebreak the winners of the freebets for this round are cryptofrka and vd309.

We had 41 goals in total and they were more close to that number.

Please re-check as allways.

Yes you win a freebet.


Very low goals in some matches, and we ended up our first pot of teams, now the mayority of the teams remains but we have to say welcome to......

- CHELSEA
- NAPOLI
- EINTRACH FRANKFURT

And in Spanish league we have to wait until tomorrow.

Goodbye Girona.

[cryptofrka]

Chelsea might be fun to try on occasions - they are playing really offensively this season.

Napoli isn't nowhere near the team that they were a few seasons ago so I won't be touching them and Eintracht will surely be skipped too.
I do like the changes to the teams though, brings a bit of freshness every couple of weeks.

[darbitmobilerecovery]

Well the last newcomer is.....

VILLARREAL from LALIGA in replace of Girona.


Premier League changes:

IN: CHELSEA (15 goals until now) OUT: TOTENHAM (12 goals until now).

LaLiga:

IN: Villarreal (17 GOALS!!!) OUT : Girona (9 goals).

Seria A:

In: NAPOLI (11 goals) OUT: BOLOGNA ( 7 goals)

In: TORINO ( 10 goals) Out: Atalanta ( 11 goals)

Bundesliga:

In: E.Frankfurt(11 goals) Out: Sttutgart (14 goals).


Who is gonna have the balls, to pick Torino in this next five rounds?

Napoli started not so well (despite they are in first position) but they are starting to gaining pace.

After this round we have international break.

[buwaytress]

12 out of 16 players picked Dortmund and currently its 0-2 against Bochum.

Aged well, as is normally the case in Bundesliga haha. Was thinking a lot about just picking all German teams this time around (Bayer and Bayern I think blanked each other for an anomalous result) but then spread my picks again this time. Thinking also the anti-contest would be picking all the teams with the least goals conceded, but who would play that, right?

Too lazy to do it myself, but I have a feeling Germany has the most goals scored in these rounds so far. What's the average week total?

[darbitmobilerecovery]

I was allways know about Bundesliga and his goals matches and very offensive football, but until now i never analized them in full perspective.

Now after a few rounds here in this competition im really amazed to see until now a clear dominance of the Bundesliga above Premier League (the other leagues are out of the fight in that).

Dortmund scoring 7 goals in UCL just warming up for this competition ?

Yes, I noticed this last year (I participated in all the polls, so I kept track of the results). If for Italy we can safely choose a score like 1-0, for Spain and England 2-0 or 2-1, then for Germany 2-2, 3-1 is the norm. If it weren't for Bayern's long-standing dominance, it would be a better league than the EPL in terms of interest and status.

Yes in fact, is in someway how i fast charge some picks in the pools, my main problem comes with Italian league, the teams are super irregular, so you cant find a clue about them, it reminds me a lot to our Argentinian league(which is in decline sinde 2014 at least) where every team can win and lose in every pitch no matter on how they come.

LaLiga is strange in a diferent way, its like a combination between Premier and Serie A. Where you can find good games and awfull ones.

Ey guys, just to remind, so many are not picked your teams yet, they care because the deadline is very early on friday, Napoli plays in the first turn of the day.

Chelsea will start a new chapter this week, against Nottingham Forest at home is not so difficult right? Brighton just got slaughtered at home and this time it will be against a low team again, I want to see Palmer do his trademark celebration.

As there are some new teams appearing in this round, it will be a bit different but I still hesitate to pick them except Chelsea. LOL

[Omikifuse]

Well, Liverpool did lose agains NF to nil at home, so nothing is really guaranteed. I still remember how...irregular Chelsea used to be last season

Hahaha i just dont check that, so is again Nothingham Forest against the Cross League Goal Madness guys

Well yes, i dont know what to actual think about Chelsea, they can score a lot in some match, but i dont consider they as a reliable team yet.

Lets see how many people pick them.
