chasmmi Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 This is awesome. I love being on the outside looking in. And you get to experience that horrible feeling of not know whether a question is ridiculously easy, or if the host knows something I don't. Questions like: Will at least 6 of the top 10 drop less than 20% this week. and you start panicking thinking there is something special about the weekend and everything will drop softly only for actuals to roll in and the lowest drop in the top 20 let alone top 10 is about 42% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
