| This was an experiment called "YTMND Fad Stock Market." I devised an online survey and got 19 people to fill it out. Each respondant indicated how long they'd been active on YTMND, then went down a list of 76 YTMND fads and gave them a rating from 1 to 10 (or Not applicable) by clicking radio buttons. They each rated on a particular timeframe according to the user's seniority - from 1 year ago (-12m) to 1 month ago (-1m), to current status. | ||||||
| The respondants were asked to rate NOT in terms of how they personally liked each fad, but using a term I called "Perceived Value," which I defined as the popularity of the fad and how much the fad would help a particular YTMND site hit the Top Viewed/Top Rated. I used OpenOffice Calc to collate scores and averages and create charts. I've spent a week trying to get the charts to look all 3D and sexy and still be readable, but nothing doing. So, the retarded multicolored mess you see here. | ||||||
| I grouped the fads arbitrarily in "sectors", averaged each sector in an index, and gave 4 examples here. BTW, by "recursive," I mean that a YTMND site takes another well-defined YTMND site/fad and forces it into a new context. Believe me, other YTMND fads defy any categorization - these are just the easy, clearcut ones. So... What do these have to do with simulating a stock market ? Not much, it turns out. The survey I made was long and tedious, and the results aren't what I'd call really accurate. | ||||||
| So... I'd like to think that, in a version 2 of the YTMND Stock Market, I'd draw data from present realtime sources. That's a hypothetical. Because I'm frankly more interested in making farting noises into a mic and making a YTMND called "Epic Butt Maneuver." ... So. You read a lot, don't you ? And you're patient. Good for you. Treat yourself to some ice cream. Let the "boring !" downvoting begin here: | ||||||
| Yes. | ||||||
| Ooh, informational! | ||||||
| .... so this is what you have been doing all this time lol | ||||||
| nedm? | ||||||
| will you give this 5 a good home? | ||||||
| Ye gods, I felt like I was actually watching PBS! Kinda confusing, but interesting too. 5 mostly for the effort. For v2.0, maybe you can talk Max into tweaking the YTMND Spy a bit... | ||||||
| Little in the middle, but it's got much Bach | ||||||
| I don't want to read all that sh*t. Take a five. | ||||||
| needs a little NEDM | ||||||
| NEDM!!!! NOOO!!! add NEDM even if you gotta make fake statistics. p.s. make it like way better than everything. | ||||||
| "p.s. make
it like way better than everything." this man speaks the truth. | ||||||
| Sweet, Zidane does nothing but go up. I'm pretty sure this means that if I make a Zidane site now, it'll be top 15 for sure! | ||||||
| bonds high mothafockahs! gas down 10c today :( | ||||||
| interesting | ||||||
| boring ! | ||||||
| you need to track NEDM | ||||||
| I have to admit, you definitely put a lot of work into this, and that's worth five stars ones in my book. Well done! | ||||||
| I guess I will have to invest more time into the lazytown fad whoring , seems as if it has good returns :-P | ||||||
| This sure wasn’t an incredible waste of time... | ||||||
| horray graphs | ||||||
| also, someone needs to play on this with wutang talking about diversifin ur m***** f***** assets on chapells or something ( I have no video skillz yet ) | ||||||
| Alright...geting some big gains on my Lazytown stock | ||||||
| "I'm frankly more interested in making farting noises into a mic and making
a YTMND called 'Epic Butt Maneuver.'" - :) | ||||||
| Informative. Nice. | ||||||
| 5'd simply because I love the Goldberg Variations. | ||||||
| No NEDM? Failed. | ||||||
| UNIVERSE TIER | ||||||
| These Smiff Barney fools you got doing analysis is a bunch of straight-up bitches ya heard. | ||||||
| Dang, except for SoaP and Lex, the market seems to be in a huge slump. And Zidane, of course. | ||||||
| As much as I thought I needed a life, you sir have bested me. Or worsted me, I'm not totally sure | ||||||
| Nobody gives a sh*t about Zidane anymore though | ||||||
| It's like a fad comp for people who can only look at charts. | ||||||
| Surprisingly interesting. | ||||||
| lol at Zidane shooting up like mad | ||||||
| According to the mac commercials, shouldn't you have used pie charts? That's all PCs can do.... Anyway, go outside, jesus.... 5'd | ||||||
| like http://ytmndstock.ytmnd.com/ only with style | ||||||
| There is an unacceptable decline in KHAAAAAAAN. | ||||||
| Ya got me dead to rights, Adverb. This was a pretty good excuse to experiment with SQL queries and various spreadsheet formats. Resume padding, ya know. | ||||||
| Absolutely AMAZING. | ||||||
| Eh... | ||||||
| there's no NEDM!?! | ||||||
| 1'd for leaving out the most popular fad as of date... NEDM... | ||||||
| Wow. Intellectual YTMND created through user evaluation. Different. | ||||||
| Of *course* NEDM is in the survey. It just doesn't show up on these charts. It'll be in future chart results, k ? quit freakin out | ||||||
| NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?!NEDM!?! | ||||||
| Absolutely amazingly brilliant. | ||||||
| 1'd for lack of NEDM.
NEDM4LYFE LOL!!1! | ||||||
| interesting, but your results are highly inaccurate. Would have been smarter to judge them yourself and at monthly intervals. | ||||||
| Looks like the market says to invest in Snakes on a Plane! BUY BUY BUY SNAKES | ||||||
| Bloody brilliant | ||||||
| It's really gay when people who have been around 12+ only vote high on the old fads(which should be recognized, but come on...) I've been around 12+, but wouldnt vote that way. | ||||||
| For people disputing the values, realize they're only going to be as good as his analysts. IT'S A SHAME I WAS LIKE THE ONLY ONE WHO WASN'T ALL IRRATIONALLY EXUBERANT ABOUT THE FAD BUBBLE. | ||||||
| No index for news/internet events? | ||||||
| Oh sh*t, stock market crash!!! | ||||||
| NEDM or mystery song? | ||||||
| nice. maybe this will curb the recent influx of bad ytmnd's... i'd like to go back to being an upvoter... | ||||||
| Worth the effort alone | ||||||
| you forgot about poland | ||||||
| No safety not guaranteed?I know its on old fad but still.You did forget poland also. | ||||||
| ahem, and where is eon8? | ||||||
| sell lazytown when stepth turns 18 | ||||||
| and by that i mean stephanie | ||||||
| NEDM isn't on those charts because they only go up to 10. | ||||||
| I agree with wobblesthegoos | ||||||
| mmm | ||||||
| Your population was not big enough, but still good effort. Tiger, Scientology have fallen off the map though...and no NEDM. | ||||||
| Oops, saw your comment. Different catagory, eh? | ||||||
| 5 for Bach. Make another one with Landen. | ||||||
| I still have my money in Medieval, should I diversify into Brian Peppers and Baccaruda? | ||||||
| Damnit! I knew i should have invest in Zidane! | ||||||
| 5 for NOT putting Ronald in it | ||||||
| I must say I'm impressed. Looking at the figures, those results wouldn't be toooo far off. 5'd for respect. | ||||||
| I'd suggest to invest on the source of all crimes...but not at the moment. | ||||||
| I suggest to invest on hookers | ||||||
| I agree with most, where's NEDM? | ||||||
| I don't see a lable for the bottom and left numbers, what are they?
also, NEDM isn't on any list, you fail | ||||||
| ★★★★★ for NOT putting nedm | ||||||
| awesome idea. but -1 for no NEDM. | ||||||
| You should show how the NEDM Fad plummeted after the rude kitty incident | ||||||
| like it | ||||||
| I'm going to invest in hookers! And Blackjack! In fact, forget the investing, And the blackjack! | ||||||
| poor macgyver | ||||||
| nice work! | ||||||
| no NEDM or Brian Pepperses?! | ||||||
| Open Office for the win. | ||||||
| WHAT'D I JUST GET THROUGH SAYING ?! NEDM *IS* ON THE GODDAMNED LIST ! IT IS ! I'M NOT LYING TO YOU ! YOU HAVE TO TRUST ME ! IT'S JUST NOT IN THIS FIRST SERIES OF CHARTS ! | ||||||
| bizare | ||||||
| graphs don't mean anything unless you label the axes... | ||||||
| If you are going for fadism here, there is no possible way that you can leave of NEDM. It is the single most popular fad, by far. | ||||||
| -2 for no NEDM. =( | ||||||
| Its good to know that Picard is on a steady but gradual decline. We must take corrective measures to save this glorious fad. Thanks for the work! | ||||||
| This is just too much information to even bother with. | ||||||
| WobblesTheGoose's comment made me lol. Take this five. Rub it against yourself if you please. | ||||||
| You have too much free time boomaga! D: | ||||||
| boo is king | ||||||
| you also forgot the facial expressions fad. | ||||||
| lol, cobsy is black peple color | ||||||
| and nsmb, safety not guaranteed, and what is love. i forgive you though | ||||||
| You forgot Ted Stevens, who's probably a 9 or a 10 right now | ||||||
| so a lazy town soap zidane ytmnd wins.... time to create it. | ||||||
| you show zidane up at the top...when that fad is dead | ||||||
| alot of them are off actually | ||||||
| There are many better ways to conduct such a survey. 4 for effort though. | ||||||
| 5'd for Bach. I used to be able to play that variation. :( | ||||||
| Very nice. I can't wait to see some more. | ||||||
| superbe | ||||||
| I think this is very interesting but I HAVE to 1 this. Otherwise you'll unleash hundreds of bad wannabes. | ||||||
| zidane = 1. For you, though, a 5. | ||||||
| I would five the crap out of version 2. | ||||||
| brilliant | ||||||
| whoa | ||||||
| ahahahahahaha | ||||||
| this needs more NEDM | ||||||
| boomaga all up in yo stocks | ||||||
| five for Bach Music (I smell a new fad coming; Nothing makes Stocks funny. Not even Bach Music.) | ||||||
| lmao "WHAT'D I JUST GET THROUGH SAYING ?! NEDM *IS* ON THE GODDAMNED LIST ! IT
IS ! I'M NOT LYING TO YOU ! YOU HAVE TO TRUST ME ! IT'S JUST NOT IN
THIS FIRST SERIES OF CHARTS !" they're not liiiistening.... | ||||||
| Interesting. It'd be cool if Max somehow implemented a 'fad popularity index' which could be monitored week to week. It'd be hard to pull off. Users would have to actually CITE their works to make it work, and we all know that'll never happen. | ||||||
| is there a 'whatever boomaga makes' category? | ||||||
| thinking! | ||||||
| first i 3'd this but then i read the description/creator comments and was WOWED by it's true menaing. FIVEFIVEFIVE | ||||||
| Oh yeah, I would like to be part of the 2nd series as a respondant. Please make this happen. | ||||||
| Picard futures are down. Sell! Sell! Sell! | ||||||
| nice | ||||||
| Well, actually you forgot POLAND VOTE 5! | ||||||
| Beautifully educational. | ||||||
| clever | ||||||
| 5 for amazing data manipulation. I hope that someday (re: two years after I graduate) I will be able to write up surveys, interpret the data, and make visuals..but for money...not YTMNDs...okay *maybe* YTMNDs :-) | ||||||
| lol, YTMNEDM.com | ||||||
| No NEDM? Puh-leaze. | ||||||
| READ THE DAMN DESCRIPTION BEFORE VOTING IDIOTS! | ||||||
| YTMND is not meant to be taken this seriously. But this is amusing nonetheless, and took effort. | ||||||
| 5'd for being accurate & apparently real too. | ||||||
| sorry boo...i was f*cking w/ ya :D | ||||||
| week of july 2006? dont you me month | ||||||
| -4 for no NEDM, shame on you boomaga | ||||||
| Well actually you forgot Poland, seriously. | ||||||
| Dear Boomaga, this is awesome, however, I may now (If you dont mind) make a dynamic running ticker of YTMNDers, and their profitabilty/popularity. I know you dont mind, see you soon. | ||||||
| NEDM IS ON THE LIST. N E D M I S O N T H E L I S T. T H E R E W I L L B E N E D M . I don't know any other way I can say it. | ||||||
| |||||||
| NEDM and Epic manuever. | ||||||
| guys, I took the test. There were like 100 other fads I was questioned about. NEDM was on the list. It will be in part 2, hopefully | ||||||
| "I'm frankly more interested in making farting noises into a mic and
making a YTMND called 'Epic Butt Maneuver.'" LMAO, hilarious, someone needs to make that into a ytmnd. anyway, i want to invest in snakes on a plane. soap is the first movie im going to see the night its released. | ||||||
| Original. *also boomaga* | ||||||
| 4 so I don't get called a NARV | ||||||
| ^Five so I can like a site and have my own opinion | ||||||
| I have never seen the YTMND fads organized and tracked so effectively. I look forward to future versions. Also Why isn't NEDM on there? | ||||||
| Dammit, I tried making HTML tags for [tard] and [/tard] surrounding the NEDM thing. Oh well... failed joke +1 | ||||||
| This rocks! | ||||||
| SELL! SELL! | ||||||
| to bad the mack hasn't really gone public yet | ||||||
| cosby was the brown line | ||||||
| wow time to dump my milton stock | ||||||
| The LazyTown market will experience unmitigated growth for the next 2 quarters, but will collapse after people realize her hair is brown. | ||||||
| 6 - 1 For reading. | ||||||
| As a business major I can appreciate this. Creative stuff. Just boring to look at. Would have been a 5 but it reminded me too much of my textbooks. NOOOO | ||||||
| k but why are you explaining stock to tits and fart wife-beating idiots? go smash 2 tired fads together if a 5 is what youre after | ||||||
| that would be really nice if this could continue so you could give us quarterly and annual reports | ||||||
| You forgot Poland | ||||||
