Stocks Competition
::INTRODUCTION::
Well, I have seen many competitions going around. And Many of them are great. But, I've not seen a single competition that has to do with stocks.Tonight, in IRC, some friends and I got onto the topic of stocks. This gave me the bright idea to start a little competition. So, I guess I had better actually tell you what the competition is about before I expect you to participate.
::THE COMPETITION::
The competition will be simple. You have $4000 to spend on stocks. It is not real money, and you will not actually purchase the stock. You simply pick out any amount of stocks, and in any company, that equal out to $4000 or less. And you will tell me the stocks you have chosen, via PM. (Please entitle the PM "RE: Stocks Competition", so that I can easily pick it out from the others.) We will all pick the stocks on a pre-determined date. And we will decide that date after registrations are closed on July 22nd, 2008 at 24:00. (It is midnight, for those who don't know. I am going by GMT times.)
(Though, I plan on leaving the entry fee low. As in, 1k or so.)
As well, donations will be accepted, and put directly to the fund for winners.
::THE MONEY::
We'll see who all joins and such to find out how much the entry fee will be, and how much the winner(s) will get.(Though, I plan on leaving the entry fee low. As in, 1k or so.)
As well, donations will be accepted, and put directly to the fund for winners.
::THE PARTICIPANTS::
1. Squee
2. 2worlds
3. Wrestle
4.
5.
Please note: Though I only put 5 user slots, that does not mean that I will only let 5 enter. It is simply that I don't want to make the thread too large to begin with.
I'm going to have to postpone the competition. I'm going on a trip that will cause me to be without a computer for about a week.
So, don't expect to see me anywhere.
And don't expect this to be updated for a while.

you mean like...
we spend that 4000 on stocks, then when the comp ends, we "sell" them and the person with the most profit wins or what?

Yes. That's the gist of it.
But, if no one is interested, all toricredits will be returned to the rightful owners, and the even will be cancelled.
