in #blocktradesworldcup6 years ago (edited)

The world cup group stage finished a few minutes ago and we already know the matches for the round of 16

As you already know, @blocktrades loves to sponsor this type of community engaging projects and @anomadsoul & @acidyo know a lot of Steemians love this game, so we decided to organize this enormous Football World Cup event.

We have more than 1,800 valid entries and the competition is very close, no one is far ahead and everyone can still win, especially considering that for the knockout stage we will consider the correct score so people can earn more points per match.

To keep participating, you have to make a post picking each winner of the next 8 games. You have to include the score you think will happen on these 8 games:

France vs Argentina

Uruguay vs Portugal

Spain vs Russia

Croatia vs Denmark

Brazil vs Mexico

Belgium vs Japan

Sweden vs Switzerland

Colombia vs England

YOU HAVE TO USE THE NEXT TEMPLATE TO MAKE YOUR POST. REMEMBER THE TEAM NAMES MUST BE IN ENGLISH. WE RECCOMEND COPYING AND PASTING THE NEXT TABLE TO MAKE YOUR POST, JUST INCLUDE YOUR PREDICTION SCORES. THE SCORE MUST BE CONSIDERED WHEN THE 90 MINUTES END, SO THERE CAN BE TIES.

Just a little feedback - as people should guess result after 90 minutes only and a true Football fan prefers to predict the real winner of a match (as this is what that sport is all about) no matter if in extra time or via penalty shootout - please consider adding the option to guess the the correct results after 90 minutes (and penalty shootout) - with additional points then for the Final 8 Round - more fun I would say, agreed?

There are more rounds, we will be changing the dynamic every round, but let´s not confuse people with this one, especially because so little time to make our prediction post and any change would wipe out any chance of most people.

ok, agreed! Thanks for replying.

@worldcup-russia, @blocktrades, @acidyo, @anomadsoul, I assume this score line is at 90 minutes and doesn't include extra time and penalties?
You should include that in the post to avoid confusion.

Yes, regular time. So there can be ties in regular time. I already included it, thank you for the observation.

what about if you want to predict a draw for a match. But the game doesn't result in a draw do you forfeit your chance to score points for selecting the winner of the match??? Or how would you like us to identify who we believe to be the overall victor of the match?
