First, I gotta say that things get confusing enough 'round here without multi-topics in single threads, but hey, least I get to try out the multiquote ability

Looks very strange to me as well.. but I did some math.. using current moo rate of .0004 per 10,000 shares purchased means that to get the 6% moo that Kiprusoff got would require 150 purchases in total > 140 @ 10K and 10 @ 100K gets you 2.4 million shares.. what does this mean? highly unlikely that someone gamed the system.. it would take 14 scumbags to buy 10K 10 times, something I doubt.. most probable is that Nick/Orren raised the max per transaction?? let's ask them..

I'm not saying I'd be against it, mind you...just sayin' the system was originally set up for purchases over 10k to be only for TV ports
A) I'm for it.. more activity which IS the reason that we went for daytrading; and
B) I don't think this is in any way an extension of amnesty .. it is an increase in activity; and
C) Only slightly confusing now, wait until yearly.. I'll have legit 100K splits in both yearly and TV.. I can sell the TV ones but not the yearly ones.. good luck trying to remember that.. (Simplicity)

Oh, and while I'm ranting.. I think it's time to unsplit all the 100K's anyway.. moo and complexity are the problems with the current system.. no problems have been identified with the unsplitting scenario
