As winner of the Official 14 millionth SI Grub Contest (the handsome 4' gold-washed trophy is sitting on my monitor as I write (I've already blown the cash prize on stocks)) let me explain that to win a seriously contested grub requires really advanced programming skills and powerful and swift servers.
I fully intend to win the 15th million grub, although I won't blow my cover on the intermediates. Don't waste your time competing.

Hi Baldy, I still remember you two guys were arguing about NAVR last year.

Then you suddenly disappeared from SI and Annette was eager to find you at that time; 'where is baldy, where is the blue skinned Martian...

NAVR turns out to be junk (I'd bought more than 10k NAVR around $15-19 at that time and sold my last k at $2, have lost my shirts then)!

How's your MRVC treating you now, did you sell any? I sold all my shares and replaced with DEC 20p and Jan 20p options today. That means I still have some confidence in them, but after today's price movement, I am worried again about their viability. Remember that I sold Nov. 40p only a few weeks ago and lost my shirts and pants this Monday.

Good luck to you, and of course, to me too.

Jeannie
