It has been an exciting playoffs and we are finally down to two remaining teams who will compete for the 2024 World Series Trophy. The New York Yankees from the American League and the Los Angeles Dodgers from the National League.

Current Prize Pool: 14,223 sats

Here are our current standings:

There are 12 points available in the World Series. 8 points for correctly picking the winner and 4 bonus points for correctly picking the number of games the series goes. You must get the series winner correct to be eligible for the bonus points.

The World Series starts Friday. Pick submissions will be open until Friday at 6pm est.

Good Luck!

It kills me to make this pick and I can't win anyway:

Yankees in 6

You're already out of the game with only 12 points remaining. Are you picking it to announce your favourite to win? I've also picked the same.

reply

Siggy is no quitter. He fights until the end, even when defeat is certain.

reply

Yupp! That's true. It'd be better if we had more than four players who are still living. But the fight has just come down to between @BlokchainB 24, points @Undisciplined, @DTom 20 points, me at 19 points, @supercyclone 17 points

It's easier for @BlokchainB he just requires his pick wins. Whereas I and @supercyclone will need a victory with bonus points and also it depends on others.

reply

The only sure defeat for me would be making the same pick as BlockchainB, so I need to wait and let him take the best option.

reply

I'm not against 'winner takes all' but I like at least top three should be the winners.

😂 What's gobbledygook btw??

My only (really long) chance of winning is if you and @BlokchainB both go the same way and get it wrong, so I'm trying to wait all of you out in a game of chicken here.

reply

You could pick the same team as long as you don't pick the same amount of games as him. I don't recall if we have a tiebreaker. Might have been an oversight by me.

reply

That's fine. This is my final entry. No matters what others do I want Dodgers to lose. They have given me and siggy a heartbreak.

reply

Exactly, but I need to see what he does before I can pick. Of course, he might have a similar thought and be waiting to see what we do.

reply

BTW. I sent you 4700 sats over fountain. That's the remaining sats I owed you from last weeks pod and the split from this week.

My first zap failed. I don't know if it's you or me.

reply

Exactly. I have lots of practice.

reply

I don't know. I'm confused and bitter about the Mets.

reply

Yes, it was a tough pill to swallow. If they had won, I would have also won this challenge. I'll still go with NY's team. I've a strong feeling Dodgers are gonna make it very difficult for Yankees but ultimately Yankees will lead to glory. Fingers crossed.

reply

Noted.

You can't win but you can still improve your standing. Moral victories.

reply

Exactly.

You son of a bitch.

Dodgers in 6

I have no options to win, though I will play for fun!

Dodgers in 7

Dodgers in 7

reply

Thought you might forget in your effort to wait everyone else out. This is also my prediction so you are assured defeat. Haha

reply

I would have preferred Dodgers in 6, but it is what it is.

reply

Dodgers in 6. Should have posted my NLCS prediction because I was right about it.

reply

No one has picked Dodgers in 6 yet so at least you will have bragging rights for being first if it is corret.

reply

Yankees in 7, god help me. Impossible to win, alas.

reply

Is this open to anyone?

reply

Yes but this is the final of 4 rounds so it’s not possible for a new entrant to win as the leader has 24 points and the most you can score in the World Series is 12 points. But if you want to submit a pick for fun and bragging rights, have at it.

reply

Got it. Thanks

reply

Yankees in 4, why not....

reply

Ok but you didn't play the first 3 rounds so it is not possible for you to win as the leader has 24 points and you at most could get 12 so all you are playing for is bragging rights.

reply

that's OK...

Yankees in 7

I've picked very early I think. To win I need to pick the opposite of all others. Can I change before the deadline?

reply

Yes you can
