Huzzah! I'm going all in on NADA and shorting everything I can on SPEC. This can't go wrong!

I don't think I'm ever going to get tired of changing my portfolio and then refreshing the main page and seeing all the investment graphs swing wildly...

Also: woo, second place! But I don't really see any of the investment possiblities here as worth the risk... I think I'll go liquid, which means Geoff will probably overtake me again next week, but them's the risks...

Maybe I'll short SPEC or buy NADA, but I'm not sure...
While no one overhear you quickly tell me not cow cow.
but how about watch phone?

I think shorting SPEC is going to be too big of a risk, I just went all-in on NADA.

I split half on hats, half on nada and shorted spec. Put me in third place will you...?

Spent slightly more than half on NADA. Shorted roughly $10.000.000 SPEC. We'll see where this takes me.

I left all my money in SPEC, as I didn't get in while the market was open. I've never been so torn about seeing Brad and Morgan in a video before!

Correct me if I'm wrong, those single shots where all three of them had hats, counted as three hats shots, right?

Nope, if I understand correctly a shot only ever counts as one regardless of what is in it. So each one with all three would have just been counted as one hat shot and one glasses shot.

A wild Morgan appears! And suddenly my Spec-shorting doesn't look quite so smart!

Pretty sure morgans specs don't have any lenses (Notice no deformation when looking from an angle) thus they should count as FACE, not SPEC.

Oh wow, I haven't checked this thread in a while.

I'll be your hatistician this week so... the number of hats in the shot doesn't matter, it only counts for one. As for Morgan's glasses, I was very much looking for lenses and couldn't see any so... I'm counting them as NPEW unless someone can prove there are lenses.

Numbers will be up later today with Morgan's glasses counting for NPEW. Thanks for clearing it up, Graham.

Okay, I can't access my account on the hat market page. Still need to have numbers but I was going to look at my admin options.

I am also having problems logging in (which I should be able to do even if the market's closed).

Could those of you close to me in this thread cover your ears for a sec? Thanks.

Worst way to get a hold of me.
Try:
- Sending me an email ([email protected])
- Sending me an @mention on Twitter
- Sending me a PM
- Poking me on IRC (irc.desertbus.org #desertbus)

Either way, fixed now.

Well, there's nearly a billion gone. Can't say I'm too surprised, but it still smarts.
