The NEW site is still being developed. The point of this thread is to see if we can get a small beta-test team together to see if it works. Once we get enough names for the beta-test team I can do the final bit of development on the NEW site and open it up for testing.
Aha.. well, Im down with that. Put me on the team if you want.

Count me in.

Are the shares just based on users? What about clans?
If enough of us play ... Will we cause a global rating meltdown?

It needs to be based on a value that rises and falls. The Clan points system only goes up so it wouldn't work - no one would lose money.

Base the clan rating on the members within it - sum or avgerage - something like that.

That's quite a good idea. I'll look into that...

Rating changes (i.e. profits) should be like dividends and the price should be whatever people are willing to pay for them. THAT, would be fun.

I'd hope not. That'd be open to abuse. Also, there should be some rules in there to prevent collusion - a user could easily agree to resign all xis games to affect a deal in this spin-off.

Keep me posted on beta launch though ds

No. Only in other users.

That's actually one of the problems I've been struggling to solve. There's no real fool-proof way of stopping it happening but I've got a few ideas to make that sort of cheating less effective.

Will keep you poested!

We run the site, Sandbaggers are NOT WELCOME.

That is all.

We can talk more about it, but it's pretty easy to view a user's graph and deny them access on a case by case basis...

You gain money or lose this fake money buying stock in fellow RHP users. Ratings go up, user's company is worth more. Go down, money is lost.

Anyone interested in Beta testing a new version Daemon Sin is working?
