Did anyone else know you can attempt the quiz question more than once? It let me try twice today.

cheers

) Dangerous Dave will be hard to track down though it is still early in the game.

Keep trying action-smiley-085.gif
 
Thanks for that, mouse. Man, I'm in 1340th place with ~$192,000. But I've missed out on 4 of the quiz questions. So I guess I should have more like $232,000... I'm not a big fan of these questions :(
 
I briefly made it onto the top 10 % gains for the week today with my other account that ranked around 5000 somewhere.

Some Comp stats for anyone thats interested

as of the end of trading 28/11:

There are 23,140 traders in the comp (user accounts).

There are 12040 accounts that are inactive (accounts sitting on $100,000 with zero trades.) starting at ranking 9305. These 12,040 accounts are ranked equal 9305.

Next account after that block 12040 accounts is
21345 mrsmac007 $81,002.15 $18,997.00 $99,999.15

The person coming last is:
23140 PHILIP DELANEY $4,666.49 $74,818.01 $79,484.50

Theres another block of 176 tied players at ranking 5128 with $120,000 with no trades. I guess these are all the other referrers accounts with the maximum $20,000 bonus for referrals, or 2 quiz answers correct

Another block of 1460 players at ranking 6166 with $110,000, no trades


A small group of 18 non players at rank 2819 with $160,000, no trades.

So of all the people in the comp, only about half of them are actually playing the game.

Anyway I'll post the complete list if its not too long to add and if anybody wants to see it. otherwise I wont bother.
 
Hey Mr Camouflage,

That's interesting, it helps us know how we are going against the people who are actually playing. Where do you get the info?

I'm currently in position 474 with $220,458.88. What name are you guys using in the comp, I can't see Wysiwyg anywhere :p:

cheers

Hi Mousie, wysiwyg isn`t my identity in the game.Did you get any on an upward trend?Looks like AWB would have been a good purchase.Here is where i am though the rank would be different as contestants answer todays question.PDN my main loss at the mo.

Hang in there, you might be holding a big runner.:p:

G'day all - I'm a newby, but doing ok so far - at number 227

My big question is how do the top group achieve a result of 20 - 30% gain within 1 days trading?

Any clues?
