Len and SSK:

Great new rules. Shorter contest will, as you say, allow 3 contests a year, with a break in between each, it may help HWEB (as if he needs any help), and I believe it will increase the overall interest.
Allowing one trade and one freeze should be manageable and add interest. The freeze is just like a sale order, except you don't have to go to cash, you can take time to evaluate a trade. It won't avoid the "whai" fiascos, but at least it lets those who have them continue on in the contest.
I can see where you need some timing rules as to when you communicate/announce a trade or a freeze, and what closing price date is applicable to that announcement.
Also, can you clarify up front how a merger or acquisition is handled, does one have to use a trade or freeze to move on, and what if they have already used their trade or freeze?

Just some thoughts. Good Job Guys.
