   Hello good sir, I would like to thank you for you article on stocksquest. I can not wait to implement your strategy to earn myself a few extra credit points. However, upon reading your list of class rankings, I recognized many of the names and realized that I go to the same school as you did. I saw your teacher’s name in the rankings, and fortunately, I have a different instructor. I was just wondering if they caught on to what you were doing, or if you explained your method after the game was finished. I am sure that if I play it well enough, I will be questioned on my strategy. I will either play stupid, or pretend that I figured it out on my own, based on what they already know. Sorry about posting this in an odd column, but I was worried that the teachers might google, “cheat stocksquest”, and this comment would be on the first result link page for all to see. Thanks, I will check back in every couple of days, if you feel so inclined as to respond.

   Hi L,

   I’m pretty sure my teacher never caught on, I think he always just thought that I was really lucky. I would advise that you try not to make yourself too obvious.

   I had a friend who attempted the same thing in a different class, except on a much grander scale. By the end of the contest, she was buying 1 million shares at a time and making a hundred thousand dollars at a time. Although her teacher obviously suspected something, I don’t think he ever really caught on.

   Best of luck to you!
