Ok if the "game" was made more realistic it would be more fun
and it could really turn into something BIG.What I am proposing
is a game exchange(GEX).Your trades would be executed using current
reak market quotes.The trades would have some reasonable transaction fee.So in effect the only part that would not be real is the money
and the time it takes for a trade to execute as GEX trades would
allways execute.
This would be very realistic GAME.If someone is looking
to build a high volume(read ad money) web site this would be a good
way to do it.You could have a reasonable signup fee which would
start you out with 100k...If you go broke or get down to almost
nothing you would have to rejoin to get a fresh 100k.The big
winners they could sell off there winnings in 100k chunks.
Keep the join fee low enough so as not to get too serious but substantial enough to keep out the brats.
