Default Do any of you mess with stock simulators?

At work a couple of friends and I have started our own game on investopedia.com to study and learn about stocks in our free time. I'm playing with a couple of different strategies and Ive been having some fun with it. I think I am going to start investing into the market here in a few months after I get a nice little stash built up.

Do any of you guys mess with these simulators? Any other good ones out there that you would recommend to learn on?

Would anybody be interested in joining an s2ki game if I created one?

For the Finance and Investments Club I run at my university, we do investopedia games every quarter. In addition, since I don't have my own money to invest, I keep a separate account with things I'd actually invest in more seriously with my own money on Think or Swim. ToS is probably the BEST simulator out there (it's also for real money--through TD Ameritrade). All the analysis and charts you can read are simply fantastic. Just like "the real thing." Everything is laid out much like a professional would see, so the learning curve is quite steep. But once you can read it, it's simply outstanding
