Just for the record, I want to thank you, sdimbert, for getting this thing rolling. Despite the fuckups, it’s been fun.
Just went to the site and clicked on “Create Competition”. Seems to be working now…as it probably couldn’t be worse than VSE, I think we should give it a go…
So how are those numbers coming sd?
Paul
While I was waiting for the stats to update, I created a new competition. Check it out here.
I checked and re-checked… the Virtual Stock Exchange rankings have not been updatated since Valentine’s Day. :mad:
We’re going to leave VSE in our dust… head on over to the new thread (see my last post) and register for our new competition, SDMB-III at http://www.marketplayer.com.
I guess we will have to retroactively cancel Teeming Millionaires II… so, pantom gets to keep wearing the crown for the time being.
See you at the new game!
sd, I thought you could go to each player’s name and check their portfolio value. Then I realized that we would have had to do this before market open on Wednesday, before the prices began updating again.
Which means that unless someone else checked it Tuesday night, then the numbers I went through and wrote down for each player at about 3pm on Tuesday are gonna be about as close as possible to a final ranking (What can I say?–I was bored.)
Unless otherwise instructed, I will start making the list…(sorry, pantom…)
Paul
BTW - I am far from being in the top, so no personal motive here 
::drumroll::
And the VERY unofficial results of the Teeming Millionaires II Stock Market Challenge are…
[sub]did I mention these were unofficial? you got that, right? don’t shoot the messenger, OK?

I’ll leave it to sdimbert as to whether these results stand or not. Remember, this is how the competition looked at almost close of market on Tuesday, after many had not been able to trade since the previous Friday…so I’m all for just scrapping the whole kit 'n caboodle. Then again I’m not at the top of the leaderboard, am I?
Your humble scribe,
Paul
First of all… Omigod! I can’t believe you did that!! 
Second of all… if anyone really cares, we can let them stand. Of course, there is not much to brag about for winning a contest that nobody could play in.
I agree we should scrap the kit… it’s the caboodle I’m unsure of.
I dunno, I feel obligated to bow humbly before bibliophage and cede my crown to him.

In his honor, I’m changing my sig line. (It’s a bit bizarre, I admit, but I like Machiavelli’s sarcastic tone in this quote.)
New sig line below. (one of these days, I’m gonna figure this message board out.)
Nice sig! I like it…just don’t tell my wife…
