Ok - next round is going to run from Thursday Dec 24th close of market to Friday May 5th. A long one.
  The starting date is a bit of a pain since Xmas and New Years Eve fall on the upcoming Fridays, so I recommend anyone who wants to play post "I'm in for $100" now, and get your picks in whenever you have the time.  I'll be able to get the sheet up and running by Dec 28th, which is the following Monday and the first day of activity.
  So, if you get your picks in BEFORE the close of market on Dec 24th, you get that day's closing prices to start.  Since people will be busy with Xmas holidays then I recommend people make actual picks as soon as possible, or make them after the Xmas holidays.  In the end it's up to you.
  For newbies, you get $100 cash, and you make your picks (long or short) with at most 50% of your capital going into one pick - so if you want to invest all $100 you need to make at least two picks, $50 each.  You can make up to 5 picks, long or short.
  If you want to play but not make your picks just yet, post "I'm in for $100", and you can make your stock selections at any trading day and your portfolio will be priced based on the close of market prices that day.
  I'm in for $100, my starting positions are 
  Long $50 SIGM Long $50 OIIM
  Off we go.......
