NS Stock Trading Challenge

I remember there was a stock challenge a few years ago, but everyone lost interest because it dragged on for quite some time.

Would anyone be interested in doing another, but only for a month or so?

What would we be using? Real stocks? I got a sharebuilder account and would be down regardless. Plus, I really really want a black baby.

because its a simulation of the real stock exchange which isn't open on weekends, so your transactions won't go through until the next business day

You can't use a cash account to short sell stock because of liquidation....
