Ive been treading water for a couple of weeks, I think I have finally managed to turn the corner today :lol:

It has never been as busy since the site problems pre world cup.

Changes a foot.

Loads of shares culled and loads of new ones added to the list.

Have pulled out of the league and stopped playing this game. Don't have the time to keep buying and selling shares and consider who is likely to go up and down.

Thought it served a purpose for WC - but is a struggle to maintain on a day by day basis for a long period of time.

Pretty much lost interest in this. Just seems a bit boring now and getting tired of constantly checking the movers just to get good rises. Seems to lack a skill factor. Would be better if they didn't post the top movers and just leave it down to players predictions of who will do well long term to make money.

Might just have one more go at a capping run sometime when I'm around for a whole week (seeing as I'm sitting just below £2m) and probably then just pack it in. Could do with wasting the time. Waste enough on FISO without wasting more on sportdaq :lol:

Im down to checking once a day as well.

Its a shame we never attracted anyone after the world cup. Some fresh faces might have helped inject life into it.

I have to agree with you, it is a bad idea having the list of top movers there.

over £20m for Karrde now - if Davydenko keeps going could get close to £30mil at capping time.

Good effort.

Mines not been up to much this week either. Was relying on Lawrie Sanchez to do the decent thing yesterday :wink: but it was not to be (good job too from a footballing standpoint)

I only keep going as I'm on Sportdaq Talk forum quite a lot and we do virtual football and cricket management namely Hattrick,Battrick,Cricket Manager and Sunday League(you can Google them).The regular Sportdaq does seem to be a one trick pony but the banter on Sportdaq Talk keeps me checking it once in a while.There were some gains available this week and if the win bonuses were slightly easier there could of been record cappings.

£29mil - good effort.

I'm going for a (final?) capping run this week.

Anyone got any ideas on good value divi prospects. Might hedge my bets by going for day trading for 1 day and divi's for Wednesday. Schumacher looks a good bet, but expensive. AJ could be worth a punt (if he's listed?) or Federer.

Might just daytrade for the whole period if I can't pick any reasonable cheap divi prospects.

Dont make it your final run :(

Do what im doing - Take it easy, reach 2mil whenever and then kneecap again.

(29mil was all day trading - got 200k divi and no bonuses)

Looking at Freddie Flintoff and Andrew Strauss right now. They look like half decent value

I went for Federer divi but didn't get him before midnight due to the site problem.His potential dividend is very low so presumably they haven't added his latest figures yet.Hopefully that would be enough for a decent dividend.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. Surely all the papers would have expected a Federer win and as a result would barely report it.

Might just do that instead of giving up.

Going OK at the moment - up to around £13.5mil. Going out soon to play in a footie tournament and no obvious day trade prospect at the moment so just switched into Federer for a bit of a divi. Thinking about it Strauss might have been a better bet but it's done now and I'm not using up the commission in switching. Hopefully should clear £14mil after the divi and should be able to double that before kneecapping. Not going to beat my best of £41mil but may get close to £30mil.

You can stop sitting on him now. :)
Nice total Unc.Did you do the golf win bonus?I wasn't around for it.Reasonably pleased with my total.You seem to have a flair for this Unc.You would blend in nicely on the Sportdaq Talk site.

Not quite sure how much I got! Must have been close to £30mil but can't remember how many icons I had before the weekend :oops: Got lucky with a few picks but the day trading seemed to dry up a little on Thurs and Fri - too many changes in the top movers to keep the momentum up.

Didn't get any win bonuses last week but picked Casey for the golf WB at the weekend. Not around much this weekend - probably be a while before I'm ready for capping again but I will carry on - just cruise up to £2m and then pick a good week for capping (i.e. a week when I'm around at the weekend to get a good start) as Karrde suggests.

looks like I might be able to reach £2mil sometime tomorrow, just in time for a capping run next week.

WB's not great at the weekend but will probably go for it anyway.

Head to Head with Larry Grayson by the looks of it :wink:
