This game has so many bugs! Have the admins even thought about fixing the bugs.

I could make a list of bugs which could be really annoying, but it still a good game.

I have a problem. Im not able to buy NEST share in the game. I have so much funds and it says "You have exceeded your buying power".

This has been there for a long time, and god know for how many other stocks this message comes.

The game has not unlocked its full potential. Please fix it, and also open the billionaires game

Trading is limited to actual quantities traded in the CSE. NEST share does not trade in big qunatities therefore you have to check the quantity available before placing the order.

Billionares game would be opened after we fix all the running bugs. We will have a look at the other bugs you mentioned. Apppreciate if you could give us a further feedback so that we coold improve the game and fix these bugs.

No. 1 position in the billionaire game! And unfortunately transactions are frozen in this game. Please activate this game, since the market condition is also great, it would be a utter shame if this wasn't fixed before hitting peak.

Speaking about the Porto-folio Manager

1. Shares like NEST are unable to trade

2. password limits to 7 characters

3.When you try to sell your positions, and if the quantity is more than the traded the quantity, you cant sell everything, you have to log out and log in several times depending your holding position

4. I still don't know how the banking system works in this game, deposit rate seems to be working as I interest gets accumulated every day, but don't know how does the lending rate works since I cant borrow. I get the error message 'You have exceeded your buying power'

5. No dividends is being accumulated to my portfolio.


So far, this is what I can think of and have faced. i will keep it updated. Please if there is anyone who is playing this game, please update.

Such a great game , I would say. I'n hooked on to it. Its a great tool to test your investment instincts and strategies.

If your share is entitled to Dividends, it will come to your account on the due date. Further if you keep money in the bank you will earn bank interest at the prevailing FD rate. ALso if you overdraw your account then you will have to pay interest to the bank. To get a overdraft facility you need to buy VstoX points. Currently VstoX points are given free.
