Years ago, a friend of mine was bragging how his team won the college basketball NIT tournament, his team was #1!

I said "no, you're team is #65"...

LOL... on days like today, I appreciate the laugh!

I actually added to my own positions today on the decline so I still like my stocks...

Hola,

Well lets end the upcoming round on December 3rd. That makes it an exactly three month round. And I haven't checked the header, but the rule changes are

- Up to four trade days per player per month (used to be one)
- No limit on the number of short positions a person can hold (up to 5)
- If it's not in the header, add that any cash position other than zero counts as one of a player's allowed 5 positions.

Picks for the upcoming round should be in before this Friday's (Sep 3rd) close.

I still like the idea of adding a rule (we could call it the year 2000 rule) that if you can actually get your $100 to turn into negative dollars, the computer resets and you get back to $100 cash the next day......
