Ed, as mentioned on the other thread 2 of my picks will be MDRE:CDN and NED:MSE. I'll get back to you with the threads for each of these if I don't make any changes before hand. I won't lock these up and change them at the last minute either. I'll give you due notice. say... the second last minute. Are there any rules about this sort of play? Not that I'm thinking of locking up stock for the sake of blocking other contestants. I think locking up my picks should be based on what I believe are sound investments and NOT based on picking it just to stop others from getting at them. What do you think? can something like this actually be regulated?
for example: say I chose abc, def, and ghi, only because there's been some hype out about them. And though nothing certain is bound to happen with them, I decide to lock them up "just in case". On Thursday, Febuary 26th, I decide to change those picks to three other ones. However, abc, def, and ghi were another contestants preference, only he had to pick 3 other ones because I locked up these ones well in advance. Now I've switched them with 3 others, and with so many entries and such short notice, the other contestant doesn't realize or doesn't have enough notice to cancel his second choice picks and replace them with his prefered picks. Get what I'm saying? Maybe this could be referred to as "hoarding", or "stock-up lock-up", or "sicker ticker picker" or "give your head a shake, pal".
Just a thought. Martman |
