Yes. Bets will be opened for the finals right after the second semi-final completes. There will indeed only be a small break so you'll need to be quick.so quick query on days where you show the semis, and then after those are completed you go straight into the final we have to go and place out bet in between those sets?
It's a casual side contest, and with some extra measures to prevent leaks we hope it won't be an issue, or at least not a big issue. Cheating is possible in a lot of games, and most players choose not to. It certainly is less than ideal though.How on earth can you make a prediction contest* for matches that are not streamed live officially when you can already see the results on Chinese streams? oO

seriously, it would be absolutely ridiculous to have prizes involved with any sort of ECL prediction contest short of the grand finals in 2019 11How on earth can you make a prediction contest* for matches that are not streamed live officially when you can already see the results on Chinese streams? oO

What is the word “cheating” refers to? Streaming ECL live or watching free content(stream) on Internet?Cheating is possible in a lot of games, and most players choose not to.
Prizes should definitely be removed, otherwise it can't really work.It's a casual side contest, and with some extra measures to prevent leaks we hope it won't be an issue, or at least not a big issue.

Prizes may be removed.
Not quite sure what you want to say. Prizes must be removed because there are no fair pre-conditions for a prediction contest. If you have prizes, you reward cheating and noone will ever be able to tell whether the winner played fair.Because "some teams want to stream live while other teams are not allowed to do it" so "prizes should be removed"
Does this look right?
You can only change the numbers in columns B, F, J, N and R which represent your bets.What are you allowed/able to change in the sheet?
When do the bets close? Just before the game is about to be streamed?
How Soon™
Yes you can do that :DCan I bet, for example, 50 points for a 3-1 in favor of VNA and also bet 50 points for a 3-2 also in favor of VNA? Or I need to choose only one of them?

At the end of each stage if you have less than 1000 points, your balance will be restored to 1000. This number will go up later in the ECL when people have 50k+ points at the top of the leaderboards, which will inevitably happen with an event as long as this."At the end of each stage (Europe East/Africa) all players will be given some new coins to play with if their balance is low, so even if you lose you can still continue to play!"
What does this mean in detail? How many coins will be given to players with low points?
