has anybody used oneseason.com. if you have, just wondering what your thoughts were. i just joined last night

Never heard of it.

If you don't mind, let us know about it please.

its basically a new sports stock market where you can trade shares in players just like stocks. more info below --

Grab the free 10 bucks they offer and give it a shot fellas, pretty fun if you ask me.

agreed. so far its definitely been a bull market in oneseason. i'm personally up 10% in just a few hours. hopefully this will continue as more stocks are ipo'd

"If successful, you'd have an exchange trading more issues than the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq combined"

That would be pretty successful. And the site taking 1% of all trades would then quickly make the backers of the site very, very rich.

just joined myself very very interesting.

The site seems to be exploding. Get in now. Made some good coin in a week.

on the oneseason forums, some ppl made claims of joining the first day, oct 1, w/ $100 which has grown to $5000 now. looking at the stocks of different players and the number of times they have split, it doesnt seem too farfetched. not sure how long the bull market will last at oneseason, but a $100 investment seems worthwhile

Bull market will last as long as new people continue to sign up.
Very easy so far.

Start with an IPO and wait for split. Yao in 10 minutes.

Is this site running VERY slow for anybody else?

They have been upgrading site since friday. Very slow and will go out once in awhile.

Slow now because Yao is about to be IPO'd

What browser is everybody using?

I'm trying Firefox and Camino and they are both running EXTREMELY slow

Did anybody deposit more money into their account?

I have the free 10 dollars and wanted to buy Longoria's stock for the game tonight but one share is 15 dollars? Am I reading that properly?

How are the deposit methods?

So slow right now to buy some Yao, you would have had to start the purchase 30 minutes ago.

The good news is that we got the capacity ramped up last night and things are moving swiftly. We were seeing some trade orders executing incorrectly this morning and chose to take down Trading while we remedy to insure a safe and fair marketplace. Thank you for your patience during these early days. We are committed to building a great product and providing service that we can be proud of.

We are taking the OneSeason Trading servers down for the rest of the day in order to continue increasing the capacity and efficiency. The site will be back up tomorrow morning for the scheduled market open at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

We realize that having the service go up and down has been frustrating but it allowed us to locate the remaining bottlenecks which we are working to remedy quickly.

I havnt deposited any real money as of yet but looks like they take all major CC's,

Trading is down for maintenance right now, I want to buy some Yao! haha

I was just about to make my first trade when it went down.

Another huge wave of traffic took down our Trade Servers. We are going to bring them back up shortly but will not release the YAOM IPO at the scheduled time. Having so many concurrent users hitting refresh repeatedly is very straining on our system. The YAOM IPO will be released at an undisclosed time during trading hours in the next few days (let’s get back to normal trading activity).
