Can we have a contest?

WellsTrader said: "I had an idea.... I know we are all here to make money with help from others (well at least that is why I am here...) How about we have some kind contest... Maybe like pick your favroite stock to ride till the end of the month and see who makes the most profit... Or something like that just... Just to add a little fun... Maybe we could all get 2 trades and start with an imaginary bankroll of 10,000.... ???? I dont know, just an idea, and any other input would be great. Forum Moderator....... What do you think?"

chahinemm said: "that is an interesting idea ... i will msg ben and mention it to him and maybe we can get a twist to it... just an idea poped in my head good for superior investors marketing approach but also good for the members... will get back on it after clearing some details on it.... and find out if its first of all possible to be done.,.. :D chahine"

chahinemm said: "yeh i was thinking in the lines of getting ben to incorporate it with the current site so we can have an on going event... and even contests 1ce a year. something of the sort of people putting in 5$ each and the final winner gets 90% and the 10% to continue improving superior investor... what do u think... chahine"

WellsTrader said: "Wow, I love the new twist.... I can tell this is a much better forum than others... When people come together brainstorming like this you have found a good thing..... I don't want to sound sappy here, but I look forward to starting the beginning of a very profitable future with this forum and I think all of you in here are just what I need to keep me on the right track."

Yoshimi said: "that sounds fun actually, would be using our real money, or just fake money so its liek a point system?"

WellsTrader said: "From what I have got out of this so far is we will all contribute 5 bucks each or so. Then we start out with an imaginary 10,000 bucks or so to invest (in fake money) At the end of the contest whoever has invested there 10,000 better would win 90% of the pot or around 90% and the other 10% of what we paid to get in would go to SuperiorInvestor.net to help fund its future growth.... sounds pretty cool :cool:"

chahinemm said: "yep welltrader u gt it all... just have to take care of details to incorporate it to the site so that we can have a system in which we can monitor who is participating and all the details around it... chahine"

Heather said: "This could prove interesting. That would probably require some sort of program to do it the right way."

WellsTrader said: "I would be willing to take on alot of the workload if that is involved. (I have a really boring life with notihing to do all day long.)"

WellsTrader said: "[QUOTE=HappyHarry]One of the advantages of being a loser. (I'm just kidding!) :D[/QUOTE] Sounds like you are talking from personal experience here. :p Just kidding.... So. what do we need to do to get all of this rolling? We should really start a new thread for ideas only, like what we should start our imaginary bankroll at, when we want to start the contest, rules and regs, etc......"
