Hello everyone.
I thought people on this mailing list would be interested in
participating in an online experiment involving (play) money,
markets, leader boards, and the peer-review process.
The Collective Decision Making Systems project at Los Alamos is
running a Prediction Market to study whether or not markets are a
viable medium to do journal/conference peer-review. Currently, we
have 3 different markets running with each having three stocks:
"accept", "accept with modifications", and "reject". Each participant
starts with $5,000 (play money) and the leader at the end of the
study will get an acknowledgment in the studies publication (** I
know..but thats all we can do.)
If you are interested in participating, please go to:

Also, if you have a paper going in or is currently in peer-review and
would like to see if a market can predict its outcome, please contact
me so we can create a marketplace for it.
Thanks for your time,
Take care,
