gollark: Which was kind of the case before - my autoinvestor bot was extremely successful just investing in any post with a large number of investments.
gollark: Honestly I think it's kind of stupid even with lots of players, since the only thing which has any impact on how much you get is how many other people wildly jump on the bandwagon.
gollark: That seems... bad.
gollark: *Just* how it's been bought/sold? Not how popular the meme is or something?
gollark: So, anyone know how the sell/buy price of memes works? The guide just says it's based on demand somehow, which seems really weird.
