Athletes performing below average will not pay dividends. All orders are processed in the order in which they are received. This means it is to your advantage to place your orders as early as possible. If there are orders to sell 200 shares of a stock and orders to buy 300 shares of that same stock, the orders to buy the first 200 shares will be filled. The remaining orders to buy 100 shares will go unfilled until a seller can be found.
All orders remain in effect until cancelled.
There will always be a conscious effort to keep the stock prices at reasonable levels. Stock splits are done at the discretion of the game administrator. There are no set guidelines by which splits are accomplished. If something drastic happens to an athlete like retirement, death, or career-ending injury, his stock will be merged or converted into that of anther athlete so these events do not represent a liability to the stockholders. However, we reserve the right to temporarily suspend operations to observe holidays, take the system down for maintenance, or perform system upgrades.
