  1. You asked for something that makes sense - surely the answers that Pickett and I gave are valid. Albeit the fact that Shad's is a tad more poetic. fair enough

    The investment Game

    I will post the stocks at approximately midnight my time (Eastern Standard Time). notes: To purchase, simply reply in the thread the shares you wish to buy. First come first serve. Once the total amount of a stock is purchased, no more of that stock is available. You may im each other for trades but once a trade is decided post it in here to allow for updating. Trades can consist of stock for money in which case the amount of stocks, the stock, and the amount of money needs to be stated Trades can also consist of stock for stock or trades can occur with mixture of stock and money.
  3. How many days does each person contribute to the total project days? Individuals don't contribute to the project's time. A can do a project, alone, in a days, but a does not increase the time of a project. Rather, 1/a contributes to the reciprocal of the project's time. 1/a +1/b+1/c = 1/10, etc. Allow me to rephrase cause I disagree: Including someone on a project and excluding someone else directly affects the amount of days a project takes. So in terms of making a three man team we can determine the day load attributed to each person (as well as rank them by productivity). In terms of proportional pay for effectiveness this is very important as we in manufacturing projects pay individuals incentives based on their individual contribution to group projects.

    it is funny that we are signing up like this. Cause once the stocks are posted it will be a free-for-all or in other words first come first serve for purchasing cause there is a limited number of shares for each stock
  7. questions 3 and 4 are still not solved

    I coded 10 separate stock functions all with an element of randomness to reflect natural fluctuations and stock purchases, so be ready!

    Do you guys want to just try it with three players?
  12. I see the error Bonanova was talking about I meant that 1% of the population actually committed a crime (sorry, i am still naive in thinking only criminals are tried in court )

    Granted: the evil genie forever makes all wishers post thousands of half wishes serious, sorry for double posting wishes
  16. I have it being 33 total combinations. Assuming there is a definite start and stop in the ring. I would possible remove some combinations if rotational symmetry is considered.
  17. on the left of the chart (committed the crime or innocent of the crime) tells you whether they are actually guilty or not. I think the chart says how effective the court is. I think we need info about the people. But maybe this puzzle will surprise me. you do not need population numbers, just assume the town is sufficiently large.
  18. Are you saying what is the greatest path?
  19. How many days does each person contribute to the total project days?
