Well, I may never hold second place in the competition, but at least I was the second to register for it. (Hey, ya gotta take your pleasure where you can when you’re a mediocre trader. ;))
It’d be really cool to get a lot of players for this game. Just thought I’d say that. As a side benefit, this will put the thread back on the first page, which may help get players.
I’ve had troubles these last couple days, as well. Mostly with graphics on the VSE pages not coming in. Keep trying, a reload eventually seems to get it all up.
When we played there for a couple of months recently, I never had this problem. So, I hope we can look forward to trouble-free times before the game actually starts up on Monday.
thinksnow, remember that the competition password isn’t the same as your login password. The competition password is ceciladams. That was just one of many problems I had before I finally got it right.
I also had problems…for anyone else who is trying to join up but is having similar trouble:
register first then go tothis page (it wouldn’t let me find it by searching for the name SDMB-II)
The button you have to click to join is just above the word “Enter” in the line “Enter your competition commentary, including:” but my browser doesn’t seem keen to load the image. If you know where it is you can still click it though.
Just after posting above, the page loaded correctly. But I still seem to be having a lot of hitches in navigating the site. Hope they work it out soon.
I had to rejoin the competition. The system had me earning interest since I signed in before, so maybe it realized that I needed to be reset so all could start at the same level.
Still won’t sell me any stock, unfortunately. Or maybe that’s fortunate. I’d just get myself in trouble if I started trading.
