Pages: 1 2  Next -- Posted by Tavis at 4:02 pm on April 16, 2008 This contest is for all of the members of GoLiveWire who feel up to the challenge of virtually conquering the stock market, playing against other members, for a 2 month run time.   Who: All members of GoLiveWire are welcome to participate in this contest. Entry is allowed from the day the contest starts until the day it ends, however, the earlier you join, the more chance you have of winning! What: A competition to see who is the most successful stock market player on GoLiveWire. The market itself will be on another site, that hosts private stock market games. Where: http://vse.marketwatch.com/Game/Homepage.aspx Game Name: Go Live Password: tavtav When: This contest will be held from April 24th, and runs for two months, until June 24th. Which, for some members, is the day you will get out of school.   Why: To improve your business experience in real life while having a chance at points and having fun at the same time. Additional Info: Well, each members starts off with 100 000 e-dollars, and once in the game, almost anything goes. Each member must make their account name 'LW(Insert username here)'.   Finally, I am not sure if I want to use both USD and CAD, or just one of the two, although I will most likely make it just USD, to stick to one currency. Edit: The Game has started!! http://vse.marketwatch.com/Game/Homepage.aspx Game name is GoLive Password is tavtav 42 member turn out! Great numbers! The winner is... . .. ... .. . circa! Congraduations! If asked by enough members, I will possibly make a longer going one, something like 9 months or something fun like that, an ongoing one.   -- Posted by Amazingness99 at 4:06 pm on April 16, 2008 sounds fun. I want to play. -- Posted by Torpid Kitten at 9:13 pm on April 24, 2008 I've done something like this two times in school already lol.

It was weird, it was there one second, then it was gone. It might have something to do with the fact that I made the topic on around the 15th, as a future contest, then it would've changed to a new one, which might of brought it into the fresh topics. I wasn't online, didn't notice. -- Posted by Arguia at 6:12 am on April 29, 2008 Can't find it. -- Posted by abiloo at 7:24 am on April 29, 2008 I've joined!

EDIT: Woo, Apple seamed to grow these days (saw it in the graph) so i bought 40 of their stocks. I hope they keep growing so i get something out of it. This is so Apple is a long term investment. It probably isn't going to make you a lot of money in a 2 month game. I joined. -- Posted by 4est at 6:13 pm on May 2, 2008 I just bought a whole bunch of stock. I now have no more 'money,' nor can I borrow any more. -- Posted by hawaiinchuck at 11:32 pm on May 2, 2008 Finally, something interesting on this site. I'm in. -- Posted by 4est at 12:59 am on May 3, 2008 I'm going to own you all at this game. I literally invested half my money in alcohol (the makers of Smirnoff) and the other half in porn (Rick's Caberet Intl., which also owns about 12 pay sites). I'm going to obliterate you all. -- Posted by 4est at 1:00 am on May 3, 2008 Everyone needs vodka and porn. -- Posted by JohnTheNormalOne at 3:55 am on May 3, 2008 I bought some shares(couple hundreds of them) but nothing happened. I still have 100k $. Do I have to wait for Monday for stock exchange to open or what? Pages: 1 2  Next
