It appears to be very realistic.
The broken link is a sign, a precursor of the real stock market game next year...  :D  :bolt:

I don't know what the heck the problem is with this link. I try to enter is as markeavacadoch.com and it comes up as this goofy link.

So replace this goofy mark whatever with market watch dot com and see if you can get into it. Otherwise I will shut down that one and find a different site to host the game on.

The profanity filter picked up a word and changed it to avacado. markeT WATch. I renamed the link.

I remember wayyyyyyyyyyyy back in my junior year we did a variation of this game in my economics class the resulted in half of our grade.  Of course back then we had to flip through the newspaper to check our stocks performance.  GE and Coca-Cola stocks were the stocks to have  :old:
