Theme Park Stock Exchange

[markham2020]

I was thinking about something big and fun to do in the summer, and I thought about making up a theme park stock exchange. This is how it would go:

Step 1: Someone would enter their company name (ex. Busch Entertainment, Six Flags. etc.) that is not a real name.

Step 2: I would then give them a "small" park to own, run and manage.

Step 3: I would give them many scenerios where they need to buy new rides for their park for "the next year" (the next week) and could buy from real companies. I would simulate the companies and they would have a certain amount of money to buy rides. Their money would go up after each day depending on the amount of guests their park(s) have. The more parks, and the bigger parks, they have, the more money they can get. They can also sell or exchange parks with other owners, and at the end, we would see who got the farthest! What do you think?

I'm interested in expanding my park with a new waterslide tower.

Well, all used flat rides are from 50-100 points and are currently being sold from Cypress Gardens and Hard Rock Park which both are selling all of their rides. Geuaga Lake also might have a few used rides left. But if you really feel the need, you can purchase new rides by simply posting the typ of ride you want. I will then give you a price for the chosen ride type and will also list the manufacturer. The new rides cost from 100-300 points again depending on the size of the ride!

A new ride sounds great, especially since tomorrow is a holiday, meaning many will flock to the parks!

With that extra money, X-Treme Thrills shows some interest in buying Hard Rock Park.

I would like to buy The Crazy Submarine ride from You, Racer. I'll pay 40 Points for it.



So (880 + 200)- 40= 1,040.
