Car Stock Exchange CSX Game play questions

From what I gather, pricing is determined by a formula taking the current price and fluctuating the buy or sell prices based on the amount of shares desired. I think a big problem is there is too much money and not enough production ($1 million x 2600 members = $2.6 billion; yet total production for all vehicles might be 500,000). Now, take a low production model, say the Clubman, at est 4,500 sales. If the asking price is $4 and I want to buy, any purchase I make is going to push the value over the limit. It seems to me that the game is eventually going to end up a balancing act between buyers and shorters. To eliminate this, a limit ability would have to be implemented. Speaking of shorters, what happens to them when a stock is retired? Are they negatively compensated for the final production price? Also, could the game get a volume index? I'd love to see just how many Corolla shares are being traded daily. Also, I just noticed the sell price for my 40 Corolla shares is $0 while the buy price is $537. Yikes!

It's my second day of trading (love it). When do new cars get added. Is it an totally new list or do they get replaced one at a time.

I have a question about the leaderboard. On the overall section, there is a column labeled WTD. What does that stand for?
