No baby pics...no childhood pics...nothing before high school.
The investment game:
Each player is given a set amount of start money, just like in Monopoly.
You may "buy" stocks from NYSE, AMEX or NASDAQ.
You manage your portfolio just as you would if you were really investing in the real world. You may short sell, day trade, hedge or anything else just as if it were real.
Results are posted throughout the day and the game opens and closes for live trading at the same time as the markets do. You may buy and sell after market close but......the trade will not take place until the market resumes trading the next business day.
I would set up a "private" game which would be open only to our members (just like the death pool).
The game can be set run for a month, quarter, semi-annual, annual or endless.
For the forum I'd opt for either a monthly or quarterly game.
