[GP_Matt]

[GGG]

[Hockeyguy15]

The Gio belongs to bizaro.

[GirlySports]

Hockeyguy15 and bizaro86 advance to round 8.

Devo22. Pick your death match opponent

[bizaro86]

Thanks HG that is very generous of you.

Congrats on winning the round!

[Hockeyguy15]

I got lucky that you hit a tunnel today I think. I ended up with a bunch of bankruptcy stock and disconnected stock.

[devo22]

not surprised I finished last. Thought I did well at first, was over $24 already at one point ... then the stupid 2:30 crash killed me. That's why I avoid the stock market in real life!

my opponent in the death match will be GGG. I can't do this today but I'm flexible on the weekend.

[GirlySports]

so it's devo22 vs GGG

please choose a time, I'm not available Sunday.

[mrkajz44]

Interesting - so I guess I have to eat my words a bit, but only three people were able to avoid the crash it seems. I wonder if Rathji got really lucky or he somehow knew as well?

And nice game HG - you crushed everyone; it really wasn't close.

[Hockeyguy15]

I think it was close until the crash, I think I had around $25 pre-crash and then got lucky with my order getting 8 bankruptcy and 8 disconnect.

[GGG]

Saturday before about 2:00 works if that works for you. Otherwise it will have to wait until Monday with girly being out Sunday

[Rathji]

I ended up being a bit of both, unlucky and lucky. I ended up selling a large chunk of my stuff before 2:30 because it just made sense to sell it (wasn't going to go up for the rest of the game with my info or was going down. So I only had a few shares left at 2:30, I happen to be able to buy 13 stocks right when the market opened after the crash, so I was in a good position and might have been able to sneak out a win if I would have traded optimally for the rest of the game. To be honest, I haven't done the math, though, and HG had a huge valuation which means I was probably still behind.

I ended up not be able to actually buy or sell after that point, as I am finishing a huge project that needs to be done before I go on vacation, so was buried in work. My final position was essentially just luck based on the fact that I was able to have some cash after the crash and was likely second in line for the purchase since it seems HG got the bulk of the good shares.

[GirlySports]

Works for me. I'm 8 hours ahead of you guys, so the sooner the better

[GGG]

Make sure to bet my own money on me HG.

[Hockeyguy15]

Timbo was right, spending other people's money is easy.

yeah i think i made the market a bit too volitile. should have been a limit of 6 shares per person and have a better lineup/priority order. Because the shares were too cheap at 2:30. Should have dropped it maybe $0.80 instead of $1.10

oh well next time, if there ever is a next time.

How about Saturday at noon?

Something might come up so i'll let you know but should be ok.

[GGG]

Works for me.

What's the game

[GirlySports]

At this time only devo22 and GGG can post. I will set up a quicktopic for the rest of the players.

Once again, non-participating players have the option to bet 1 or 2 Gaudreaus on who they think will win.



The seventh death match is

INVISIBLE MAZE RUNNER

It is the same as Death Match #4. I will review the rules. In this game, you will try to find and avoid invisible walls and make it to the opposite corner

Imagine you are standing on a chess board with 7 rows and 7 columns (Bottom Left is A1, Bottom Right is G1, Top Left is A7, Top Right is G7).
There are 32 invisible walls. Both players start on the bottom corners (A1 0r G1) And the shortest distance to the end is the same. GGG as the player with more Gaudreaus will determine starting position and starting player.

The starting player will move first. Both players will take turns moving 3 squares each (for example B1 -> C1 -> D1). You may move in any horizontal or vertical direction, you cannot move diagonally. If a player moves through a hidden wall, their move will have failed and they must move back to where they started last and I will post where the wall is that they walked through, ie "there is a wall between A1 and B1"

Both players have one Double Chance token. When the token is used, they can move 6 spaces instead of 3.

The first player to reach the opposite corner wins (A1 -> G7, G1 -> A7)

All actions will be done in the thread, post your moves then wait for my reply.

If you have any questions ask here.
