Anyone know anything about Protrade?

by user Alex Holowczak

Would anyone like to start a Protrade game to count towards the ArmchairGM Fantasy Sports Series?

It is a mock trading game, where you are given an amount of money, and have to buy stocks in them in the real world. The price alters in accordance with real life events, i.e. others buying shares. Column inches act as dividens (I presume - they do in a British version of the game).

It could run until December 31 (or another defined point) this year. However, I don't know how it works, so I hope that someone can answer this question, Can there be groups to compare how well each player is doing?

I would like to start this game for the series, but I'd like someone else to play the role of commisioner, as I don't really have a full understanding of what is going on (I haven't played it before).

Would people be interested in playing?

Go to the Protrade website for more information.

Ya, I have an account on the site an its pretty legit. Basically you are given a set amount of monopoly money to buy players as if they were stocks. The stock price is dictated by the players on field play. You set up a group league or game, and everyone gets the same rules and amount of money for a set period of time. The person whos account is the highest value at the end wins.
