Yeah, it's like what I said a couple weeks ago that there will be a lot more ARB stocks after openings

Granted, we're all going by the standard 2.7 average adjust which may actually be low with so many movies having better legs than that. I'd be curious if there's been any proof that on a whole movies are doing better legs-wise than maybe a couple years ago.

Yeah, I'm really hating the new game without having halt/adjusts... diamondman56 Mar 05, 04:56

I agree. I've been finding it difficult to find my new rhythm with the change so I don't play as much now. {nm} ryancoke2 Mar 05, 05:25

I agree and I think you've been fair. RickandMorty Mar 05, 05:29

For me it's less the loss of fun associated with adjust (a real thing, no doubt), than the choatic, often illogical movement of stocks once shadowking Mar 05, 05:51

Then again, John Wick 2 is going to delist just above 2.7 so maybe that's still an apt mult to use. {nm} diamondman56 Mar 05, 06:39

this is the part I don't like -- taking a temporary-but-hard hit on films with good OWs and the promise of legs {nm} CG63 Mar 05, 10:45

I'm fine without it. To me, this is more of a true stock market feel. The adjust gimmick allows you to make money quicker when the 2.7 . . . PhoneHome Mar 05, 06:08

But, HSX is not a real market, it is (was) a game. The adjust was the fun. {nm} tatoufan Mar 05, 06:37

Totally agree. I barely play anymore and it is extremely difficult to make money. {nm} platonm Mar 05, 06:10

I guess I just like it when there's more of a challenge to make the fake money. That's what makes it fun as a game. {nm} diamondman56 Mar 05, 06:40

it's not a challange, its simply a choice of spending the time to stay up & log on to this stupid site at reset {nm} adrenalin112 Mar 05, 18:17

Completely agree. But I guess HSX makes more money from reset trading than box office forecasting so we are stuck with it. {nm} ceregon Mar 05, 07:15

Can't make money if there are no players {nm} platonm Mar 05, 07:44

Agree. LOGAN would be adjusting at $230.31 and instead sits $50 lower. It was fun to get paid for getting the OW.... tomcat90 Mar 05, 08:14

It was a challenging and fun. Reading forums, doing research, waiting for early estimates... platonm Mar 05, 08:21

The "game" has definitely lost the pizazz it once had. I don't visit as often since the loss of the halts and adjusts. GruntNoNeck Mar 05, 09:03

I'm long 13 of the top 15 gainers today, LOGAN numbers are through the roof, and my port is down when it would've been up big. BORING {nm} tomcat90 Mar 05, 09:43

I like it, but would double the shares allowed for OW {nm} Dales Mar 05, 09:58

I guess I can no longer say that not a single player asked for or likes the change. shadowking Mar 05, 10:01

That makes sense. {nm} Dales Mar 05, 12:15

I proposed 250k when we had the switch to approximate the same total dollar outlay, but yes, 100k is not enough {nm} tomcat90 Mar 05, 10:14

I don't -hate- it, I suppose, but it's made me really apathetic. I log in less frequently and care less when I see red. {nm} Bronzey Mar 06, 05:23
