Frequently Asked Questions:
Why did my stocks change?

What does all this information mean?
Stock value - Value of stock
Value change - Value that the stock has changed by since the last article
Percent of market - Used for deciding player demand. Shows the amount of stock people own for this company relative to the total amount of stock owned.
How do the markets work?
Please note: Calculations are made every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. An article is released detailing these calculations each time.
The markets are based entirely off of player demand. The algorithm is:
(share worth) x (1+(change in percent market))
This is not information you need to know in order to invest. It does, however, show you that the stocks are not based off of random chance. Also, please note that change in percent market is a percentage as well.
How is my money safe?

Comments
If the public logs are accurate (I understand that apparently this info is copied out of the private ledger), it would be more accurate to say that $161259 is invested. Maybe there have been $450000 worth of purchases, but you know.
Additionally, the market percentages are off slightly(assuming traditional rounding):
Q7-7%, Virtual-6%, Cybernetic-2%, Elite-26%, Cyber Security-10%, Noob-49%
And if you are curious, this is stock shares divided by total shares.
If you do value-based market percentages you get:
Q7-14%, Virtual-10%, Cybernetic-4%, Elite-37%, Cyber Security-15%, Noob-21%
There have been over $450,000 worth of investments by players.
Not sure what you mean by the second part. There's a bit of a disconnect between sheets, as I have banned a few more users, but need confirmation. I'm treating their stocks as 0 right now. This has not influenced anyone who has not been contacted about continuing to violate the rules.
That said, I'm not sure how you got those numbers. Could you clarify?
I'll gladly share a sheet with you that totals your stock portfolios sheet and does the math. I assume there has to just be a discrepancy in the two. Maybe we can catch up in IRC or something.
BTW, it appears to me that maybe there was some lag between posting the article and updating the public Portfolio sheet. It now balances out within tolerances.
That makes more sense, I updated the market sheet a little after the article.
Bought that noob stock!
You should sell it back immediately. You will lose money this time on Noob. Just sayin'.
