1025 5 0
Emcee:  GROUND ZERO™ Type:  Moderated
All are welcome...<g>

Here are the rules:

Just say up or down for any or all of the three major averages, DOW, SP's, and NAZ... your call is good for the next day only... you can call one, two, or all three markets... for each market called you win one point for being right, you lose one point for being wrong... therefore, you can win or lose as many as three points a day... for example, you can call the DOW and the SP to be up and the NAZ to be down, or however you see fit to call them... you will be playing against a flip of the coin each day, who knows, maybe a flip of the coin may turn out to be the best way to trade...<g> put your egos aside, this is all for fun and laughs.....

Each game will run for the week and there will be a prize for the weekly winner at the end of each week... a new game begins every week... a poster has offered to give a weekly prize, but asked to remain un-named...

There will be a prize to each weekly winner plus a grand prize to the grand winner after eight weeks...

Here's a comment about the weekly prize and their Web site:

This easy to use spray on formula seals and protects disc surfaces for longer media life, Quick Shield is all you should ever use to clean and protect all your optical discs.These are revolutionary products, not alcohol in a bottle.

You don't have to play every day, you can pick your days, the more you play the more your chance to gain and/or lose points...

Post all you calls directly to me, not to yourself or to any other poster... there is no need to justify your calls, this is not a serious contest for gurus, this is only to be a fun game for friends...

Here's how to enter your call each day:

(your name, market, up or down in the order of DOW, SP, then NAZ)

SAMPLE:

GZ, DOW up, SP down, NAZ down (pick one, two, or all three, whatever you feel that day)

I'll keep score... if there are any disputes, I'll make the final determination regarding that dispute...

Important Note:

All calls for the following market day must be posted to me prior to the opening of the futures' evening session, that is to say, your post must be time stamped on your SI post on or before 4:45 pm each day for your call(s) to be entered for the following day... simply said, tomorrow's calls must be posted by 4:45 pm today.....

Post to me some time today with your calls for tomorrow, those who have already entered will remain in their standings...

Any questions, just ask.....

Let's have some fun, good luck.....<g>
