Oh, if that is the case, please hold my position with AKAM and GG and I will submit the switch to the others on or before Monday to take effect Monday after market close prices.

To reconcile spreadsheet, here was my position:
Symbol Cost
AKAM $34.22
GG $40.40

Was $50 on each.

To be honest, at one time I believe we didn't count the first pick done on the Friday before the Monday market opening as the monthly pick.
But that was some time back.
SrK thus is right and the rules seem to be clear at this time.

Which doesn't mean, however, that we shouldn't consider improving the rules here for next round.

Because the early Friday pickers, who make Elroy's work easy, would then gain the benefit of their monthly pick not used vs. those procrastinators hanging out to the last moment in order to sniff out the Monday opening trend.

I feel like I'm in the twilight zone, as this is what you wrote to me before the current round began..

For the current round, I don't mind if we allow 2 (or even 3) trades per month). I'm pretty sure I will have internet access for the entire time, so it's fine with me if people want to trade more. I prefer less trading because it keeps my time lower, but we can have 2-3 trades per month this time if no one else objects. Go ahead, pay 1% to trade, if you think you gonna make some money.
