@kaner: Devo is terribly right! if the game ends in a Spring because they draw, who owns a SC that has its land in a colour and the unit in it in a different colour?

@Devo. If last turn my only order was been just "buy 2000 Roubles" holding the rest, now I'd have: 14.57% (+0.78%)*
Imagine what I could have earned with a good order....

_____________
*The TNW would have been 454.586 (+10.693).
For the record, in the meanwhile you'd have 14,67% (-1,08%) because of my different order.

Oops.. I've read kaner's reply just now, it was on a different page :)

@ Guaroz:

I don't know why our numbers are different. I used my calculated numbers which are exactly the same like kaner's apart from drano's net worth. But that's a typo:
drano's net worth is $4945 and not $324945.
Total net worth is $438113,91. I calculated this with my pocket calculator another time. It seems to be correct. Maybe there's a mistake with one or some more of your used NWs.
The sum of RNWs is 0,99 caused by rounding.
The different numbers for relative differences are easier to explain. I could have written +3,61 instead of X for the change of 0ri0n's RNW. Maybe there is the reason for the other difference as well. According to your numbers 0ri0n's Net Worth grew 0,17.
I think, you calculated this way. You calculated 0ri0n's net worth for last turn as well. You said, he was a player last turn, too and calculated his net worth for that turn according to 1000 of each currency. That's an explanation for my raise of the total net worth from around $429000 and your drop from around $444000.
But that's not an explanation for the different RNW-numbers.

another typo :-)
"drano's net worth is $4945 and not $324945."
Net Worth of drano: $34945

Mmm they all look ok, but D33= 9069.74 and not $7859.74.
Perhaps there's a mistake with D33's Dollars... Last turn he had 2.790,00$, then he NMRed and now he got only US$1580 ?
kaner?

Is it possible to steal in Bourse?

Changed D33's Dollars and got the same RNWs like you.

I made a list showing how much one VP costs for each currency at the moment:

Crown: $37,25
Pound: $47,75
Franc: $102,5
Mark: $76,5
Lire: $31,75
Rouble: $35,5


Here's a list how much VP every player would have if he bought the cheapest currency according to price per VP and didn't sell any other currencies. (you'll see the real VP as well, but they'll differ from kaner's - reason: I calculated them according to the rule, that only blocks of 100 were counted for VPs while kaner has ignored this rule so far)

Devo: 1552 (1552)
Diplomat33: 166 (78)
L Podolski: 686 (686)
Guaroz: 1622 (1198)
gman314: 1387 (1387)
tobi1: 1351 (932)
drano019: 920 (918)
hiprox: 634 (634)
Ambassador: 1192 (1120)
amisond: 653 (650)
DoubleCapitals 442 (442)
0ri0n: 396 (396)

This may help to find out how strong players really are at the moment. Or at least it gives more information then the normal VP-ranking.

....and didn't sell any other currencies ?!?

My Economics' teacher called this kind of hypothesis "Robinsonate"

(Because some economists use to make examples too simple, as if real economy was the same as in Robinson Crusoe's island, lol)

@Tobi1 - true, I have been dividing the total stocks held by 100 then multiplying them by the amount of SCs, as such you could consider my running VPs to be very close approximations of what the players true VP happens to be. Thanks for pointing this out to me.

On my spreadsheet I have this ordered like this:
=((B226/100)*B238)+((F226/100)*F238)+etc...

if anyone knows how to round-down any particular value to the closest unit of 100 could you please let me know,
until then everyone will have to wait until the end of the game in order to know your true VP (it won't vary that much from what I have been giving you so far)

(that is using script - as opposed to manually entering the new values)

Actually no sweat I've just made a new column and used this function:
=ROUNDDOWN(B229; -2)
This reads:
= round down cell B229 (the total stock held) to the next unit of 100 (-2 decimal places)

So everyone's VPs are now:
Devonian: 1600
Diplomat33: 78
L Podolski: 686
Guaroz: 1198
gman314: 1360
tobi1: 932
drano019: 918
hiporox: 634
Amby: 1212
amisond: 650
DoubleCap: 448
0ri0n: 396

Great!
And Kaner, how about the D33 issue? I mean what are his Dollars and NW (please read my prelast post)?

Ah, yes. I see the problem, yes D33 has a Float of $2790 and NW of $9069.74

thx :)

How did I gain 40 by rounding down? Is it a typo?

*VP's

I bet 100 Bourse-Dollars on Italy getting the Euro2012 Final.
Does anyone dare to bet on Germany?
:)

Of course! I bet 100 Bourse-Dollars on Germany getting the final and another 100 Bourse-Dollar on the German team getting European Champion this year.

@kaner:

I use the same function. But why do you got different VP for Devo, gman, Amby and DoubleCap?


@Guaroz:

I know my calculations are exactly right but as I've written down: "at least it gives more information then the normal VP-ranking"

@ tobi. Deal both!
100$ for Italy getting the Final
100$ for Germany not being the Champion.
I could have 200$ more tonite, if Italy wins!

I would bet on Germany as well, but iirc Guaroz is Italian so nationalism is getting in the way...

and just my luck, right after I say that Italy scores a second goal, lol

$200 are yours, Guaroz. The Italian team used their chances ...

A reminder for those players who haven't sent me you orders, that you have less than 22 hours in which to do so.

VPs:
Devonian: 1552
Diplomat33: 78
L Podolski: 686
Guaroz: 1198
gman314: 1380
tobi1: 932
drano019: 918
hiporox: 634
Amby: 1120
amisond: 650
DoubleCap: 442
Ori0n: 396

for some reason the Germans weren't too up to form in that match ... and anyone please explain why Toni Kroos was placed as RW?

Well LP, you should tell us! Didn't you play the first half, yesterday?
