Important update (Main Competition)

Hello everyone. I understand what you are saying, but we think it's unfair not to extend the competition

1st: This was a problem that was not controlled or caused by our participants.
2nd: This did not happen only to Dahman El_Harrachi, it happened to everyone using Coinbase.

After reading the last posts and checking the last two bets made by amine14madrid, I can see that they were made by patt0's address as he posted, so amine14madrid also had problems finishing his last two bets, and was lucky enough to get another player to help him.

So this happened at least to two participants in Top7, and probably to some more on the entire competition, since we have a few more users that did not place the 100 bets, and were close enough. We just don't know for sure.

The best option here, is to extend the competition for another day, so that everyone has a fair chance of ending this competition.

So the competition will end on the 2nd March at 00h UTC

Hope you all understand, and agree that this is the best option for a good and fair competition.
We want for our participants to show their punting skills, and it would be unfair to disqualify them, for a problem they did not cause.


I do not agree with this decision. I'll see if other participants would agree or not.
If so, please contribution prize can be given now.
This is not fair simply because the problem of Coinbase all participants affected, it has become a risk users Coinbase why other people affected.
COMPETITION HAS ENDED!

I don't know man. Like I said I ended up helping amine14madrid, that was having the same problem, and didn't help Dahman El_Harrachi because I did not have any coins left. To be honest, I feel quite sad that no one tried to help Dahman El_Harrachi, after the made the post requesting it. He would even pay more (like amine14madrid also did to me), but even if they didn't, and out of around 200 users or so (less because of the multi entry feature, but still a decent number of users), no one was able to give a hand. I don't get it.

As for the decision I don't really see a problem with it. Let's say no one helped amine14madrid.
We would have 1st place and 2nd place, being disqualified from prizes...

It's just a few more hours. After an entire month of competition, I think it's fair enough to give them a few more hours, since they did not cause the problem. But that's just my opinion.

I does not matter if the organizers want to give a month's time again for those who have problems with his wallet. I only ask for the contribution prize can be given now. I really do not care committee wants to give more time to participants who are in the top 7 and had problems with his wallet. LOL!
