Chip,

>>>> Play it seperate...take the losers and the winners out of each six an and add it up after a few weeks...course I wouldn't want to embarrass them >>chuckle <<<<

Interesting concept, but why not make it very difficult and where eveyone can follow and understand and appreciate. Not everyone can afford to play futures in light of margin requirements so many dont
fully understand. Why not do something where the smallest guy can appreciate. There are alot of more out there that love to see a small amount turn into a large amount rather than playing with larger amounts.

Frankly and not to be insulting, but Im a grass roots type of character from the 60's (ggggggggg), and I feel that only a few will appreciate playing futures since many feel it is a game for the rich in light of the significant margin requirements. Play something that the majority of the SI readership can appreciate, such as stocks, stock options, Index options, etc.

Also, instead of playing with a huge sum, why not make it as difficult as possible and say we play with only $2500 limit, with no restrictions. If that is too difficult then lets say $5000 to at least give more than 1 chance. I prefer the smaller amount since its
tougher. If you can think of anyway to make it tougher, Im all ears.
Lets make it so theres no room for error.

In light of the good spirit and just quoting you: "of course I wouldnt want to embarrass you guys." ggggggggggggg
