🏎 Fantasy F1 Belgium Review (Race 12)
Having reviewed the Belgian Grand Prix and the total farce that it was in a post yesterday, it shouldn't come as any great surprise that the F1 Fantasy game doesn't have a clue what to do with the points. This means that the game has not been updated yet and that the league standings remain the same as they were before the mid-season break.
| Po. | Player | Points |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | @the-gorilla | 1,972 |
| 2nd | @gabikay | 1,779 |
| 3rd | @offgridlife | 1,431 |
| 4th | @esteban85 | 1,357 |
| 5th | @tayetaiwo | 1,165 |

⚽ Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 3 Update and Prize Winners
In a Gameweek where some of the highest points scorers were from teams that haven't had their entries confirmed, @gabikay won the Gameweek 3 Prize of 15 Steem with a score of 74 points. I'm particularly pleased about this due to him taking the time to write a post about his Gameweek which is something I'd like to encourage other managers to do. Congratulations @gabikay 🏆
This means that overall, @the-gorilla still leads the way from a load of people that I don't know with @jmehta moving into 2nd place for the prizes and @jimah1k in 3rd. The number of teams that have entered and I have no idea who they are is impressive and unfortunate considering the impressive 91 points scored by Javier Corredor (Peaky FC).
We now have a week off with the international break and during this time, the transfer deadline and arrival of a certain Cristiano Ronaldo. Will he be £12.5m, £13m or more? The last time he was in FPL, he was £14m.
No more entries will be accepted into the main league but will be accepted for the weekly prizes so click this link to find out more about how to join
⚽ Fantasy Football Scotland Gameweek 4
With Rangers winning the Glasgow derby to take 1st blood in the title race, Fantasy Football Scotland saw the lowest scoring Gameweek so far this season. @the-gorilla and @jimah1k top scored with 42 points meaning that @the-gorilla has extended his lead at the top to 76 points ahead of @kingworldline with @arahman in 3rd place. With 90% of the season still to go, the International Break can't come soon enough for those trying to figure out how to catch @the-gorilla.

⚽ Fantasy La Liga Marca Gameweek 3
With the additional excitement of the transfer market and La Liga's insistence on adding crap players, strengthening existing squads is becoming increasingly difficult. Despite this, plenty of transfers are still happening between managers and the occasional addition from La Liga of somebody who actually plays quickly gets snapped up. With the International Break now active, the pressure's reduced for a couple of weeks but there will still be some nervous managers watching as their players release clauses become active.
In Gameweek 3, @chenty had a strong week, scoring 63 points and moving him to the top of the league ahead of @jimah1k.

⚽ Fantasy Bundesliga Manager Gameweek 3
On a sunny Sunday morning, I discovered what a cruel bastard this game can be. Having forgotten that I'd made 1 substitution on Saturday, I removed 3 players from my team before trying to change formation and bring on the ever impressive Morten Wieghorst up front. But it wouldn't let me change formation which meant I couldn't replace the 3 players I'd just removed and with the game saving at every moment, every mistake is brutally punished. So I was down to 8 players and have decided that Fantasy Bundesliga Manager is stupid.
@jimah1k was top scorer in Gameweek 3 here too, moving him ahead of @the-stupid-gorilla.
For those of you that bother reading this, you now have unlimited free transfers until the Gameweek 4 deadline.

⚽ Fantasy Serie A Gameweek 2
Having forgotten to generate the fixtures for the Head-to-Head league, we'll now be kicking this off in Gameweek 3. The standard league is unaffected by this.
Gameweek 2 saw a new entrant into the Steemit league and top score with 85 points. Yet another user who's joined the league and I don't have a clue who they are! Other than the mysterious newbie, @the-gorilla top scored to move top ahead of @arahman with previous leader @jimah1k dropping to 3rd.

⚽ WOX Fantasy Champions League Is Now Open (100 STEEM Prize Fund)
UEFA's Champions League Fantasy Football game is now open for entrants which means that I'm running another contest to give away 100 of my Steem.
Entries will close when the 1st match kicks off on Tuesday 14th September so there are just 2 weeks to enter a team.

I'd love to run even more contests for even more sports but I know very little about what make a good fantasy game for many American Sports. If this is an area of expertise, then provided that we can generate enough interest, I'd be happy to provide the prizes. I've written this post on the subject so please get in touch and help to make World Of Xpilar the go-to community for Fantasy Sports on Steemit.

🥎 I've found a good Fantasy Tennis website but the tournament's players are announced at fairly short notice which could make it difficult to administer. Please let me know if this is of interest and I can tag interested players when it comes to trialling it here on Steemit.

Hey man, hope you're well??
Hey! We're on "holiday" at the moment although it doesn't feel like a holiday. We're just in a different place with the same screaming, whining and nagging but in a smaller space and a shitty shower. In fact, it's the opposite to a holiday.
How are you doing?
It still sounds cool anyway
I'm alright 🙂
I want to go home.
Glad you're doing alright. Life always seems to find a way of grinding you down.
They say home is where the heart is!
You listen to Mike Rosenberg's songs??
Yeah, I'm a lot better now. Life goes on😊
He's not a name I'm familiar with but I'll look him up later to see if I recognise anything 🙂
Glad to hear you've perked up 🙂 Hopefully there are some good times now.
✌🏽✌🏽
Wow, I wasn't expecting it. Thank you to the host of the steemit FPL (@the-gorilla) for the weekly price which I have recived
This is so much motivation for me in the game.
Waoooh What a fantastic game, fantacy as it is. Thanks for sharing sir
You must be fantasy god. Top or near enough the top in each competition.
Ha ha - I don't know about that. I love my data and football so it's a combination of things I enjoy 🙂
I've got to be at the top of my game this season by the looks of things if I want to have any hope of winning!
