I just purchased shares of "20 percent will be authors" and the price I had to pay was quite a bit higher than the listed price at the time of purchase. Is that because the market is not yet liquid, because there are not enough users registered during the beta test?

It would be interesting, I'm sure, to people who access this site in the future if someone on the team could explain how the prices are set.

This is a fascinating tool ...

sorry - jim shorted many of the shares and looked like a big winner for a few hours and is now getting killed by the market. he is staying with his shortly positions, and i am staying with my long positions. More importantly, a newer version with a UI is coming and a better set of descriptions next week.

As the market becomes more educated on the various bets I'm confident my positions will prove valuable... :cool:
