I want to create a website that is a stock market simulator game.
  • Simulated stocks are based on real world stock prices
  • Users will be able to register their usernames with their email address and have a password.
  • A site wide public game created at the beginning of each year that never ends that is open to anyone to join on the site.
  • Users can create private games with specified runtimes, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, no end.
  • Within private games, user's can set the starting dollar amount each user gets
  • Within private games, the creator can change multiple options that the game will use for the rest of the duration

Thats the gist of it.

What would it take to be able to create this site? What language would be best etc.

I will be unlocked within a month or so, so nobody can pm me.

You can contact me through AIM or email me at Get.Spanked.1@aol.com

what are users doing in these "games"?

the first part could be difficult, as stocks fluctuate daily, unless theres some kind of API that u can use (doubtful tho).
i think a little more detail of this site would be helpful.

such as, what are these "games".
how do u play on using/implementing the "real world stock prices" in these "games".

There's no reason to make a post in both Programmer's Haven & the Web Language sub-forum.
Pick whichever one is a more sensible location and just post there.
Since it sounds like you want to make a web game I'd recommend keeping your thread here, and asking a mod to close your other thread.

Really hard if you're not even sure which languages to use..
