then they should start that. Lots of smart people here so I am hopeful they can come up with ways that give HSX what it needs & keeps
traders happy.
Before a movie opens, HSX needs to have the stocks represent a prediction of what the movie will do in box office. Players were playing the adjust which no longer gave the stocks an accurate representation. Is there a new multiple given how important Thur previews now are?
It needs to be simple too - different multiples due to seasonality and genre are probably too complicated.
How I feel about the new rulles Dec 26, 12:18
Frame 1:53 is from Saturday, Janaury 20, 1968. And yes, Sundays will never be the Same. {nm} Dec 26, 14:23
Doesn't exactly look more accurate, either.. {nm} Dec 26, 18:48
I'm just not sure what to do with some movie stocks anymore... just feel like I'm riding things up and down. {nm} Dec 26, 19:43
Ditto {nm} Dec 27, 11:17
It's made the game BORING {nm} Dec 26, 20:31
+1 {nm} Dec 27, 02:58
Yep {nm} Dec 27, 04:10
Well, I had an open mind, and gave it a few weeks Dec 27, 04:53
the anticipation was fun, as was the possibility of swings. {nm} Dec 27, 08:12
Agreed {nm} Dec 27, 21:26
Maybe we can get it changed back, if enough people agree {nm} Dec 27, 05:03
+1 - But I got told we'd never get enough posters to post to show that majority... {nm} Dec 27, 06:01
All it's going to take is one person to agree, and I don't get the impression any arguement is going to change his mind {nm} Dec 27, 06:12
Boooooriiiiiiiiiiiiing............. {nm} Dec 27, 05:35
This game is now boring. Friday adjust were great. Both changes (to saturday halt and this one) sucks {nm} Dec 27, 06:42
maybe it kinda seems that way, but 2016 is actually going to be the biggest $ year ever {nm} Dec 27, 10:12
Hopefully we'll be around to see what happens to theaters in the next 10 years or so... {nm} Dec 27, 15:45
I just hope/wish "they" notice the suckness and bring the Halt back to Friday or earlier, which would be even better {nm} Dec 27, 17:45
Walking away from HSX Dec 27, 06:24
hate to pile on, but it's felt like the website has been dying a slow death for awhile now... Dec 27, 07:29
agreed on most of your IM {nm} Dec 27, 07:59
I too have wondered why BOT can succeed for people who love film in great dialogue, but hasn't translated Dec 27, 08:11
There was a social function to the halt and the adjust similar to the work lobo's contests (and contest idea) have done. Dec 27, 08:28
very well put gary! {nm} Dec 27, 08:34
The single most exciting thing about box office is opening weekend. It's an unknown. Dec 27, 08:36
also well said shadow. {nm} Dec 27, 08:54
I agree with your IM. {nm} Dec 27, 09:13
+1 {nm} Dec 27, 09:47
The most direct comment I can make is that I don't even come to the site every day any more and it doesn't bother me. Dec 27, 10:00
it seems to me that what people want out of HSX and what HSX needs out of HSX are two different things Dec 27, 12:50
I'm assuming that many traders would like to start that discussion. {nm} Dec 27, 13:03
then they should start that. Lots of smart people here so I am hopeful they can come up with ways that give HSX what it needs & keeps Dec 27, 13:37
I understand that there is a fine line drawn here by Cantor Fitzgerald. Antibody is the messenger. Dec 27, 09:15
Agreed on al of it. I see muself drifting away from the game more and nore {nm} Dec 27, 09:44
Agreed {nm} Dec 27, 11:01
Yep, boring now. They should deregulate the whole thing... get rid of the stock limits, etc. just go for it! Dec 27, 13:15
I don't trade often anymore, but I'm pretty much done. Dec 27, 13:27
Lobo said it perfectly. I agree 100 percent. The daily enjoyment has faded for me. {nm} Dec 27, 19:05
