Jack, just a heads up - you might have to choose another entry for following reasons: - - Edits are not allowed - Entry does not meet daily volume requirement Thanks Taj, but: 1. The edit was made to merely add the ".PK" 2. While CGOOF doesn't show volume on the pinks its pps closely follows the real issue CNL on the TSX: www.stockwatch.com/Quote/Detail.aspx?symbol=CNL®ion=CThere is a 1:1 correlation between CGOOF shares and CNL shares and the current volume today is over 100K. I stand by my submission - if Ask and Cos reject the argument and my submission so be it - I won my gold coin and Fastopian coffee cup already...no need to be greedy. Thanks |

Jack, just a heads up - you might have to choose another entry for following reasons: - - Edits are not allowed - Entry does not meet daily volume requirement This is for everyone, NO EDITS. Put another comment in the thread: "I put in the wrong symbol, should be CGOOF.PK not @$#^@!.OO" or whatever. Cmon, we've done 7 of these. As for the choice, this is a tricky one. CNL trades with volume on the Toronto exchange and has a proxy on the US exchanges CGOOF.pk which has no volume except when I buy it lol. But the price is based on the Toronto. (Is it in US or CN $ ?) We have to be careful. Since it has a proxy here I think we can allow. But if this was only traded on the Toronto exchange, or that damn Minsk exchange, then it would be disqualified. |

Jack's entry is accepted but clearly this is because CGOOF is on a US exchange. Even if it's a pk.

I think the way we have dealt with Bros's situation in the past is he has to pick another entry, and he has to take the worse of: worst price at 3:24 or Close?
I don't remember. I do know we had a way of settling this situation where everyone agreed it was fair including the contestant.

What, no one chose TVIX? I didn't even try, thought for sure that would be grabbed up at exactly 9:30. Well, because of that and because decay will decimate it over 2 weeks if there's any pop at all  |

I'd take that wish the specifications above if I'm allowed to, otherwise no big deal |

I just got back today and couldn't post on the road as Fastopia didn't recognize my current email for a password fix. Is it too late to enter at the opening price on Tuesday? If I'm granted a pass on this I want to buy XIV.

Cos has the how to's, etc.

Ok I looked through past Contest Threads and here's where I'm at...
Bros had an entry in before 4pm but couldn't log back in before 4 to make a correction. So long as he and Steel can work out what their arrangement is and present it clearly in a post, and Ask & Taj agree, the entry is accepted.
For the entries that came after 4pm, we can amend the rules for future contests but I would prefer not to change the rules after the entry period.

Birthmark offered to give up SOXL to Brosin. I think that is the most fair way to allow Brosin in. I do not think it is fair to let him have another equity no matter how it is arranged. Or anyone else at least this time.
Steel has no entry to trade with Brosin. He only said that no one had picked EDC.

Ah Ok thanks for clarification of what was in discussion Maxi. I'll wait to see what is decided. I agree that we can't change rules after the contest has started - we have to use existing resolutions until the next one.

Um so you're saying I'm too late to enter? Even though late entry is not exactly an advantage? Sigh. OK. Not quite clear how my entry would be allowing me ANOTHER equity - just allowing me the equity I would have picked had I not been disconnected.
