"I'll look into your withdraw. For payouts, we're just tentatively being cautious as we continue to improve the way OPTA delivers their stats to us. They had some issues on our end and then we improved some things on our end so we're doing a bit of testing on and off until that's optomized as we don't want to pay out incorrectly. It will be much quicker after we work through all that. Just part of being new, we had the same issues at DS/DK when we first got up and running and would oftentimes hold payouts."

I sent them an email on that as well, but haven't heard. Here is the rule I'm referring to:

Quote:

"All open contests that are conducted on Mondogoal have a guaranteed prize (or prizes) regardless of the number of entrants. Thus, the weekly large field tournaments will always pay the same amount to the winner, whether it is a busy week or a slow one. Some structured contests, however, require a specified number of participants. If that number of participants is not reached before the start of the contest, the contest will not take place and your entrance fee will be refunded. For example, a head-to-head challenge cannot take place without two willing competitors and a 10-person league may not be conducted with less than 10 entrants."

Man I actually really hope that eto and or remy dont start this weekend lukaku and costa being so high are the only things making pricing moderately okay right now.

If either starts they basically become must haves imo.

Thanks duck

Do you put any stock in guys who traveled far for internationals? Sanchez for example rates high in your model and has a pretty favorable matchup, but played tonight in Chile and has to make the long trip back. I don't think I'd play him even if he were to start for that reason

Ya im waiting to revise based on injury fitness reports. Arsenal lu could look completely diff than I expected. Ill be revising it friday for sure with extra notes.

Also this is a reason im not as bullish on chels as my model suggests I should be.

Yea think I'm gonna go with cesc as my luxury player player and build around that. If costa doesn't start might switch cesc to hazard

All indications point to chelsea being the best bet for goals. I really want to fade them and hope they regress since they are scoring 35% rate on the road. League avg is like 11%. So def not sustainable. Fading road favs that the public likes seems to work well in gpps imo.

Excited for the return of soccer and really like my lineup. Granted, I'm a little worried about random changes for teams coming out of the break and am going to a CFB game Friday night, so will be hoping crappy hotel internet works Saturday morning so I can rework teams if needed. Don't really wanna have to use my phone during scramble hour.

Ya had a ton of time to do some extra research and finish my team model/algorithms. Very interested to see how it performs even with a very small sample.

Oh man, looking at CL slate, tuesday is going to be a brutally tough slate for people. Pricing is tight but there are some gems to be found.

How many of you got Tadic in your lineups? I could have sworn I had him in a couple of my teams, I must have dropped him out during my last minute changes before kickoff. An 8- 0 scoreline is surely an anomaly and how well you did this weekend depends on how many southampton players you stacked in your lineup.

Duck, I wanted to edit my team on mondogoal before the man city game kicked off, it wouldn't allow me. This was at least a good 40 minutes before kickoff when they announced the lineups. I wanted to swap out Toure from my lineup.
It seems really dumb that they don't allow you to make changes right upto kickoff.

What games and what prices are you playing? Had another good week. Thinking it's time to up the stakes

Nice week for me. Cashed across board. Insanely high scoring week because of Southampton and all the clean cheats.

Play about 400$ worth per game day or so. Bout 50% gpps rest hu triple up or 50/50. I.wouldnt normally play so much gpp but the edge is massive plus overlay cant be ignored so I leverage my roll a little harder. +1.5k or so since I started fantasy @ about 70% or so roi.

Big prob is I need to figure out how to sign up again so I can reg under my referral link and get rakeback. Worried about getting banned if I do that though. May need to convince my gf to let me reg under her name.
