Chasers Dawg 9 Posted March 11, 2002 Lord, How's about adding that Stock Market trick to this line so's we can make our choices. By the way, check your Calendar; 04-01-2002, I'm wonderin' if anyone else'll pickup on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord of the flies 0 Posted March 11, 2002 Guys, All 12 owners from the 1st dynasty league need to go to this website http://finance.yahoo.com/m1?u and select an index and post which one you select here. Make sure that you don't select one that someone else has selected. At 8PM on the 21st of March, the owner with the highest index pennies gets the first pick, 2nd highest - 2nd pick, and so on (also xx.00 is zero not 100). Good luck to everyone. I am going to select this index : Nasdaq 100 ^NDX Everyone else go ahead and select an index. Let me know if you have any questions. Later.

dfenwickzone 0 Posted March 11, 2002 Since I am in the Detroit area I will go with Dow Jones Averages20 Transportation. Bill you should set a deadline for making this pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Anonymous 24 Posted March 11, 2002 I'll go with the Dow Jones 65 Composite. :cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chasers Dawg 9 Posted March 11, 2002 Still think we should have made it April Fools Day in honor of ourselves. However being a salmon jockey from the the northwest I'll take the "Pacific Exchange Technology-PSE" Good Luck Boys, you're going to need it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord of the flies 0 Posted March 11, 2002 Dfen, Good point. The deadline to select your index is the 18th of March. If you don't select one by then, I will select one for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darb33 0 Posted March 11, 2002 I selected 15 Utilities. Good luck boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spicy Tuna 0 Posted March 12, 2002 I'll take the S&P 500 Index (^GSPC). What if their are ties? Let's pick a second market as a tiebreaker - I'll take S&P 100 ( ^OEX ) as my tiebreaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Proteus71 0 Posted March 12, 2002 I'll take NASDAQ, Volume in 000's (since 0 is the # of losses I'll have this year). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grigs Allmoon 0 Posted March 12, 2002 Ill take: Amex Internet (IIX) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highway Robbery 0 Posted March 13, 2002 I'll take the Indi 500 because I'll race my way to the league title! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord of the flies 0 Posted March 14, 2002 Here is what everyone has picked so far (fubars and sheriff bufford still need to sellect an index). Chasers Dawg -- Pacific Exchange Technology ^PSE Fubars -- ????????????????? Grigs Allmoon -- AMEX Internet ^IIX Highway Robbery -- Indi 500 ^NDI Lord of the flies -- Nasdaq 100 ^NDX Sheriff Bufford -- ??????????????? Darb33 -- 15 Utilities ^DJU Dart Pro -- Amex Networking ^NWX Dfenwickzone -- 20 Transportation ^DJT Mr. Anonymous -- 65 Composite ^DJA Proteus71 -- Dow 30 Industrials^DJI Spicy Tuna -- 500 Index ^GSPC Everyone let me know if I got any of these wrong. Also thank Bitter Naval Frizz for this idea. As someone pointed out, there is the possiblity of a tie. So, everyone needs to pick a tie-breaker index (or we could do this afterwards for just the people that tied). Later.

Proteus71 0 Posted March 14, 2002 Okely dokely. Here's my new index. Dow 30 Industrials^DJI. Let me know if there's anything wrong with this, cause I know absolutely nothing about the market. I only know how to whoop butt in FF! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highway Robbery 0 Posted March 14, 2002 Bill you put me down for the wrong one and the same one that Spicy Tuna has - the 500 Index ^GSPC I am: Indi 500 ^NDI Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dfenwickzone 0 Posted March 14, 2002 I think rather than picking a second the tie breaker can be using the index on a future date. Say one weeklater or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chasers Dawg 9 Posted March 14, 2002 Originally posted by dfenwickzone I think rather than picking a second the tie breaker can be using the index on a future date. Say one weeklater or something. I agree. Maybe every day until all ties are broken. Lowest teams eliminated and ranked daily in case of more than 1. Could be used for all ties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord of the flies 0 Posted March 15, 2002 Sounds good to me, but lets make it the next day. So, if there is a tie between owners, we will use the index that they picked to settle it (for the next day). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DartPro 0 Posted March 15, 2002 I will take the following: Amex Networking ^NWX Please email me if there is a problem DartPro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grigs Allmoon 0 Posted March 15, 2002 What do you mean if owners are tied? You mean if our teams tie a given week's game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord of the flies 0 Posted March 15, 2002 No, if you tie next week in the index (if you have the same number for your pennies). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grigs Allmoon 0 Posted March 15, 2002 Oh... You are saying if there is a tie, we'll use the next day's closing price as the tie breaker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord of the flies 0 Posted March 16, 2002 Originally posted by Grigs Allmoon:Oh... You are saying if there is a tie, we'll use the next day's closing price as the tie breaker? Yes, but only for the owners that tied. So, if you and I tie at $xx.48 and that would put us in the 7th and 8th draft position, then the next day we would check the index again and determine which of us got 7 and which got 8.

Fubars 0 Posted March 17, 2002 Sorry, I've been out of the loop. I don't exactly understand this stock market pick to determine the draft order, but I'll pick Major Market XMI if no one else has picked that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
