Any chance we can create a wooden spoon award for last place? I'll donate $0.01 to that and $5 to the main pool

[Swkoll]

@wolfsaw I wouldn't be opposed xD

I suppose last place would be whomever wins the least games overall, with ties going to Group D, C, B, then A.

You would pay 3 dollars in transfer fees to give a dude a penny.

[Swkoll]

@ftxcommando It's about sending a message.

[Wolfy_666]

@swkoll noted, 4*0.01 ( incase of tie ) and $5

[Wolfy_666]

and sent xD

[Swkoll]

Thanks Although, because there's 4 $.01 prizes, I'm only going to pay out the $.01 prizes if the player has a US-based or other no fee paypal.

Need to update the title to $735.04

[archsimkat]

Nice, looks like as a member of group D I am in solid contention for the Wooden Spoon Award.

I believe in Turin and ZLO

[archsimkat]

@femboy The goal is to get as many correct as you can, not incorrect.

[ZLO]

if i fail fast maybe i get correct prediction as a сonsolation prize

[Resistance]

let's go

[Swkoll]

@zlo The real big brain move is to predict your own loss to hedge your bets.
