Scipio Is The Oracle of World Cup 2018!
This World Cup was one of the best we have had! Full of surprises by the underdogs able to beat the favourites coming in to this tournament. I enjoyed most of the matches to th fullest, even if the teams I were rooting for didn't go through. I enjoyed the matches more by seeing people organizing contests of which I joined two of them, @worldcup-russia and @steemitboard. In addition I had set up what was in my mind the ultimate prediction challenge for the last 8 teams.
Below are the finals scores:
- @scipio 11
@dedicatedguy 6
@cryptocurator 5
@abh12345 5
@anomadsoul 4
@seyiodus 4
@evecab 4
@dante31 3
@el-cr 1
@futurethinker 1
It was a very tough task but out of all participants one has shown to be the true oracle: @scipio. The title is 100% worthy to him as he managed to predict all the winning teams! @El-cr and me have to share the shameful bottom place 😆.
Let's have a look at @scipio's predictions!
- These were the results of quarter finals to the finals:
| Quarter finals | Score | Semi Finals | Score | Finals | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Uruguay | 0 | France | 1 | France | 4 |
| France | 2 | Belgium | 0 | Croatia | 2 |
| - | |||||
| Brazil | 1 | Croatia | 2 | ||
| Belgium | 2 | England | 1 | ||
| - | |||||
| Russia | 2 | ||||
| Croatia* | 2 | ||||
| - | |||||
| Sweden | 0 | ||||
| England | 2 |
These were @scipio's predictions:
| Quarter finals | Score | Semi Finals | Score | Finals | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Uruguay | 0 | France | 3 | France | 1 |
| France | 2 | Belgium | 1 | Croatia | 0 |

| England | 2 |
Most of scipio's prediction came very close. It's very impressive he managed to predict Croatia for the finals, who were considered an underdog when coming to the tournament. Out of the 7 matches he predicted the result of 2 matches perfectly!
Unfortunately he did not predicted the result for the last match correctly (4-2), but who else could've predicted such a wild final.
Congrats to the Oracle, @scipio you have won 20 SBD! The rest of the pool will go to @promo-mentors to support our project to promote Steem (more details in this post).
It's a shame this tournament went by so fast! Till in 4 years again!
Actually, maybe till 2 years, we could do an oracle cup for a continent tournament :)
It was highly entertaining to take part in this more intimate competition with just a select few of the finest Steemians! ....I think @scipio should let us know his thoughts on the price of STEEM for the next two weeks next!
Thanks @futurethinker
I predict BTC to go up towards $7100,- by the end of this week. Steem will go to $4.50 within one month.
And the top-Alt performer will be.... IoTeX (IOTX, Binance) .... a whopping 1200 sat by July 31st!
I hope this comes true!
This is what my crystal ball tells me! Same ball I used for WC2018! ;-)
Give me your crystal ball please. 🤩.
I want to see. what year I will get married.
How are you?
Lol.... Until now, I didn't realise you were @scipio mentioned above. 🙏 respect boss!
Holy 5hit the Oracle has spoken - let's get on this!
Oh indeed!!
We are all watching with bated breath
Maybe it's beginning to happen @scipio

Cool idea! I haven't used any bid bots at all! (Well, apart from testing it out once for 0.25 SBD :-) )
That too deserves an upvote :)
Oh wow! Thanks a lot! I really like this idea :)
Whiehoo! Oranje boven!
Lol :)
Congratulations for the winner!
By the way @futurethinker, I think we both ended up in second place in the blocktrades contest :D , but we still need to wait for the official winners.
I'm not so sure, I made a mistake with editing my semi-finals post into my finals post, maybe it wont count :(.
I heard it was pretty crazy...never been a World Cup fan but may tune in next year.

Yes you should! You would need to wait 4 years for the world cup though ;)
Other tournament are coming up.... Maybe no four years wait 😁😁
