We are back for the 2025/2026 season of last man standing. Voted by the Hive Community as the best competition on Hive because you don't have to pick up a guitar. Well you don't get 2000 HBD for winning either but that is besides the point. May I also add that this is the oldest competition on the Hive Blockchain. Self funded in the interests of Hive. I refuse to go woke and call it Last Person Standing. Women of course you are allowed in the Competition (once you are not in goal).
Last years winner was @cryptoandcoffee. A competition stalwart that will not admit he knows much more about football than his beloved rugby union. Look at him there after the round 3 last year bloodbath where he went for Spurs and got over the line.
The Rules
This is a very simple game but it is amazing how many people mess it up.
Pick a team:
Choose wisely, my friend, as this team will be your only hope in the treacherous world of football predictions.
No repeat picks:
Once you've chosen a team, you can't select them again. It's like trying to date the same person twice – awkward and not allowed.
Survive and advance:
If your chosen team wins, you move on to the next round. If they lose or draw, you're out faster than a referee's whistle.
One game at a time:
For the winners each week, you'll make a new pick. No looking ahead, no cheating with a crystal ball – just one game at a time.
No draws allowed:
In the event of a draw, both teams are eliminated. It's like a double-elimination tournament, but with more drama and less mercy.
The last one standing: The competition continues until only one person remains. The last man (or woman) standing will be crowned the champion, showered with glory, and probably a few congratulatory comments.
Over the last couple of seasons if someone missed a selection I would award them the first team in alphabetical order but seeing that Arsenal and Aston Villa are very good now, I am changing things around a bit. The teams you will be allocated are now the newly promoted teams , Burnley and Sunderland and Leeds. The participant will have a week to put their selections in . Ain't got no time for stragglers.
Remember, this is a game of strategy, wit, and a little bit of luck. Choose wisely, and may the football gods smile upon you!
