Jury Session Record of the 25th of October 2007

At the session, the Jury discussed disqualification of several Participants.

On the 18th of October, the Expert Advisor of Participant #500238 was stopped. The EA cannot open positions since its deposit is exhausted. The entire log is filled with messages: "Not enough money" and "Invalid lots amount for OrderSend function".

The Expert Advisor of Participant #500493 was stopped on the 19th of October for a similar reason. It had been trying to open a one-lot position for a week. Although the EA was messaging as "Not enough money", the lot size was not changed.

The Expert Advisor of Participant #500247 was stopped on the Participant's personal request: he asked to stop his EA due to lack of money on the account. His Expert Advisor messaged much about that.

One more Expert Advisor was stopped on the 24th of October. From the 17th of October the EA of the Participant #500269 was unsuccessfully trying to open positions, and could not do it because of not enough money on the Participant's account.

Interview with Michael Mayson (mmayson)

I thought that my EA would be successful, but I was unsure about the opposition, so I really had no expectations of being #1.
