Here's an idea. See a stock over 100k? Go see why. Lazy people.

i have no problems with them because I dont relly care. But If i had to choose I'd so no. Not because it gives others an advantage, but because it takes away part of the game. The whole point of this online game is to look through some box scores and determine who to buy yourself, not to come on to the message boards and see who spooned what. I agree with Relic that it doesnt hurt competitions...it just takes the fun out of it.

i think it adds more fun too it, its give us more stuff to figure out, you can tell who to buy by going to the market listing, the only hard ones to figure out is the ones that have split and they might only be 60 or 70 thousand buys on them..my opinion and it isnt worth a dime here. and i respect yours also. also you can not tell if it is a monthly buy by just looking at a spoon, but you can by looking up his stats!

So.... I've been here all day playing my arse off ... PGA, MLB buys... Riding the Moo etc...

Then here comes.... StormJR... misses everything alld ay... goes to a thread.. looks through it... checks out some box scores and makes his buys.. based on other people saying stuff...

After I was here all day busting my --- to get on the moo and look up divi's ETC.

See anything wrong with that?

why not just go all the way and have the guys who have the top buys all figured out get their own forum to post nightly buys in (or i suppose they could just post in the tools section each night)?

what the hell, if we're going to take all the effort out of the game might as well do it right.

it would also save ld the time from having to post his report every morning and save all of us the time required to read it. win win for everyone.

i'm curious though why is it every time this subject is brought up someone invokes doug's name. as if because he did it it's ok? it was no less pathetic when he did it than it is now. and for the record, he contributed a lot more to this community than the occassional morning report.

so be it. but let's drop the act and call them what they are. they're not posted for the fun of figuring them out. they're posted plain and simple to remove any need for effort (still think posting the nightly divis would save more effort for the community at large and poor ld) and to drive moo no more no less.

sounds like my dad(so be it) i like trying to figure them out,ive never even finished in the top 25 in any of the competitions,so they really dont help ME, but i do understand if you win or really compete in the competions, you may not want them because it might help the other person be a little more competive.
