@drl21, Yeah, I'm not really sure how they could effectively deal with the problem, but it exists. It seems like the main points would be: 1) Letting people know there has been a change affecting the game somehow (i.e. expansion, release on Steam, etc) 2) Allowing the GLS prediction to change even well after a year or two
I still don't agree with awarding the full DKP based upon the prediction alone though. Say there is some release that fuels a significant shift in sales after the stock has been delisted, you can't take the money back that you've already paid out. A worse scenario would be predictions vastly overshooting actual sales, and it's only confirmed after the stock has been delisted (i.e. the speculation was completely wrong).
