Rules & FAQ

Everything you need to know before you enter.

How do I play?

Predict the exact score of every group-stage match and call who finishes 1st in each of the 12 groups, then pay 0.1 SOL to confirm. The highest total when the group stage ends wins the entire pool.

How is scoring calculated?

  • +4 — exact scoreline correct.
  • +3 — correct winner and correct goal difference (but not exact).
  • +2 — correct outcome only (win / draw / loss).
  • +6 — correctly call who finishes 1st in a group.

Wrong outcome scores zero for that match. Draws only score exact (+4) or correct-tendency (+2).

Who wins the pool?

The single highest score when the group stage ends takes 100% of the pool. Ties are broken by the most exact scorelines, then by the earliest entry. The pool is the sum of every 0.1 SOL entry fee.

Can I join after the tournament starts?

Yes — registration stays open through the group stage. But each game locks as it kicks off: if you join late, you simply can't bet matches that already happened, and you forfeit those points. The same goes for a group's winner pick once that group is closed. Get in early to play the full board.

How do you stop one person filling 1,000 tickets?

Your wallet is your identity — one ticket per wallet. There are no email signups to fake. The 0.1 SOL fee is the real deterrent: 100 tickets would cost 10 SOL, and all of it lands in the very pool you're trying to win, so you can never profitably "buy the board." The operator confirms every payment by hand and each transaction signature can only be used for one ticket.

How does payment work?

You send 0.1 SOL from your own wallet to the pool wallet shown on the entry page, and enter that wallet address on your ticket. The operator matches your payment to your wallet and marks your entry verified — until then you'll show as unverified on the board. Pasting the transaction signature is optional (it just speeds up matching). Only verified entries are eligible for the payout.

Is this gambling?

It's a skill-based prediction contest with a real-money prize pool, not a licensed sportsbook or casino. Outcomes depend on your football knowledge. Rules and legality vary by where you live — only participate if it's legal for you, and never stake more than you can afford to lose.
