Huh
Interesting.
I'm with PQ, Huh!!!
Fascinating, and a little unnerving, I suspect. Never knew a website like that existed.
Looks like you are in the midst of a bear market.
That is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen.
My work blocked that website...
so I am assuming it's pornography.
I don't know how to read numbers and charts so I still have no idea what that is.
P.Q., Lbluca77: You may be listed as well. No idea. Strange, no?
Emma: Nor did I!
Herb of DC: I'll be sure to inform the Board of Directors.
Fearless in Toronto: Me, too! Bizarre.
Matt: Sadly, no.
f.B: Perhaps you should keep your imaginary money out of the imaginary blog stock market, then.
I'm not listed. I'm worthless. Damn.
Mike: Perhaps just undervalued?
I found this a while back and couldn't figure out who was behind it or how it worked, so I just ignored it. I have enough trouble figuring out why my hit counts in MyBlogLog and Google Analytics are so far out of whack.
It's a fantasy stock-trading game. I've played it for almost six years; I started with $500 of their scrip, parlayed it to about $4 trillion, lost most of that, and am back in the $400-billion range.
Not counting the $375,000 I lost when I bought 1250 shares of this very site in another window just now. (I'll make it up in a month or two, though.)
CGHill: Um, thanks...? for investing in me? But more to the point: WHY?
Mostly, I view it as a way to test how well I react to trends. (It's a bit too predictable to act like the real stock market; simulations can only do so much.) I have to avoid despair when my holdings are decimated; I need to avoid getting smug when I turn a profit.
The game developers, I suspect, saw this originally as a way to promote blogdom by encouraging mutual links - which pushes up one's market value - and bringing in new readers. As usual, the Law of Unintended Consequences held sway, and now it's more "How can I screw this bunch of peasants?"
Incidentally, if you play, you get 1000 shares (all blogs are arbitrarily assigned 5000 shares) of your own blog, currently worth $434,210.
(Oh, and I made back $40k today.)
