Today we’re rolling out a fun addition to MyChances.net: a currency system.

From now on, you’ll earn credits each time you post on this site. You can keep those credits in your wallet, or you can put them in the ‘bank’ and let them earn interest on an hourly basis.

With the credits, you can ‘buy’ shares of any of the colleges on this site. There are only 50 shares of each college to begin with, and each college’s share price is set based on its popularity. Some colleges are only 10 credits, while others already cost 300 credits per share.

You can buy colleges from the Shop, and you can sell them to other visitors at a price of your choosing by using the ‘Trade Centre’.

In the future, we’ll be adding new ways to earn credits and to spend them. We also plan on creating features that will only be available to people who own a share of college, just to spice things up a bit.

As always, feedback is welcome.
