Steem Fantasy Premier League - Gameweek 2 Match Prediction Results and a poll for the Prize Pool
Hey everyone! Firstly I apologize for writing this post a bit late, been super busy lately and it takes a lot of time to manually go through the predictions of each participant on the Match Results and to check who was closest and won.
This week we had a really close race with 12 participants having guessed 6 correct predictions!
Congratulations to @fajri, @jwolf, @luism86, @praz735u5, @sportsgeek, @creativewoman, @miniature-tiger, @patcole02, @raisul, @howtostartablog, @harryp3, @lifebitesized! You will all be sharing the prize of 33 SD with each other!
The only participant to have guessed Stoke to win against Arsenal (@captaincanary ) had 5 correct guesses and didn't qualify for a prize unfortunately.
The current prize pool for the Steem Fantasy Premier League is now at 154 SD + 120 Steem = $310 after 2 Gameweeks!
Having said that I wanted to take the time to create a quick poll for the community to decide how they want to divide the prize pool between Steem Dollars and Steem. So far it has been 50/50 but since we all here are hoping that Steem will increase in value over time, especially after a year when the season is over I wanted to let everyone vote for which they would prefer to have it sitting on instead.
If you click on this link you will be able to vote on the poll: https://strawpoll.com/gbsc8b94
Please take the time to vote so that we get as many as possible to decide on it and feel free to resteem this post so more people see it!
This is how the prize pool will be divided by the end of the season:
1st place will receive 30% of the total SBD.
2nd place will receive 15% of the total SBD.
3rd place will receive 10% of the total SBD.
4th-10th place will receive 3% each of the total SBD.
11th-23rd place will receive 1% each of the total SBD
24th-48th place will receive 0.5% each of the total SBD making it 100% of the SDB rewards.
The league table stands as following for the first 16 Managers

Had a pretty good week last week! Sitting 10th in the league looks pretty nice. :-)
Will add my vote to poll, looking forward to the prediction post too.
You are doing better as a team manager)))))
It's going surprisingly well! ;-)
Made some changes this week too, so hopefully they pay off.
Finally i have been dying for this post. Btw Champions League will start and Uefa.com is organizing a fantasy on their site. I have already made a post about it but no wonder ...it got no views. What do you think about making a league there too?
I think it would become too much for my votes to support as I am spending most voting power for @ocd and other various curation guilds lately.
Dont vote then, we can handle not recieving your votes :P . I would gladly organized if you would resteem it...
I'm gonna think about it, is it next week it starts?
first game is on 12 september.
I think you can just select somebody who is willing to manage such a competition and just resteem his fantasy posts. That will be a great contribution with no voting power expenses.
Congratulations to all the winners! Particularly me ;) No really, to everyone!
For the prize fund I think it makes sense to have it sitting in Steem (actually in Steem Power and used to upvote the contest if not too complex) and I have voted as such, although since I'm already facing a relegation battle it's not going to be my money!
Also if you like football contests, don't forget to Pick The Striker!
is it too late to register in league site? i want to participate fo bigger pool too and season is long :) if possible link too. Arsenal was tough to predict last week
Gameweek 2 was unfortubately the last one, I might make an exception for those that already have a team ongoing before GW2 and have an active and verified Steemit account but the disadvantage of joining now and being after 2 gameweeks might be too big to compete.
I was going to plead for an exception as well. I've had a team going since before the season began, but the league I had been in fell apart this year.
I'm kicking myself for not more thoroughly seeking out and finding your league earlier. I did join the other one (late) that @herverisson is running (you'll see my team "Wassup" over there). But when I saw that you had a deadline on yours I didn't want to just jump into that one without asking first, just to have you kick me out for being late.
At the end of the day, I don't care about the disadvantage. I just want to play!
i hope you give exception for me :) im commenting from old weeks, just didnt registered in site:( i did my application on your first post
Can I register also? My first entry was gw2
Congrats to the winners! I can only imagine how hard and time consuming it is to go through all the predictions :O
Yeah I've been thinking about automating it somehow but haven't come up with any good solutions yet.
May be you can just make a Google Form to collect all forecasts. The only drawback is that after sending it participants will not have chance to edit it.
Pay someone to do it 👍🏾 I'm not volunteering by the way!
Ahhh - great to be a winner. Thanks for creating this ongoing contest. Resteeming
Holy! This is so cool mate. I didnt knoe about it. Waiting for the next one
