A little something to pass the time maybe?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sportdaq/

Buy and sell share in sports stars, get paid dividends weekly on the shares you hold - dependant on their media coverage etc.

Used to do Celebdaq ages ago, reckon this could be trickier and might be a bit of fun. Anyone interested?

If so, register an account and pop your ID on here, I will invite you into a league - so we can all compare scores !

Shall we say though - no-one buy shares til Friday - give a 24 hour grace period for anyone who wants to play etc - then we all start 2moro with a clean sheet and see who is teh wise when it comes to media sports coverage type malarky?

Ok cool, will invite you in a bit..

Few people in the office still playing Omerta, I have stopped - been playing Footy Manager and BF2142 at home when I have had chance and decided Omerta just takes too much of that time..

Though I might pop back on in a week or two as I do miss its pointless addictive nature :) When I got ganked had near 1/2 mil, armour, weapons etc but no family - family is the way to go I think!

See I warned you it was addictive....but pointless.

Wait til you get ganked - that ruins it :)

Keep your shares til Friday then once you get your dividends sell them and move onto the next hot subject and buy in them, if you sell prior to Friday you only get the difference between your buy/sell price on the shares - you wont get any dividends etc.

Apologies if you already knew this !

Bah all my shares have plummeted overnight bar Ronaldinho :(

Still its Wednesday so might as well hold onto them for 2 more days to get the dividends - just hope it covers what I might lose on the original purchase price :(

You can join Sportdaq at anytime - it calcualtes your total profit as a percentage per week not just how much cash you have, so come on in, teh water is lovely...

And Bisq - its upsetting when you get smoked - though if you were part of a family someone in the gang will get a witness statement with who shot you on it, if you want to start again and get revenge - I never bothered to be fair - wasnt part of a family myself...
