How a sentence gets onto the page
Editorial policy for the daily investing game guides
Every guide on this site is about the daily investing game at erstwhile.io or about a neighbor I can actually open. The status column is the whole method.
| Field | Reading | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Confirmed | Two publishers who do not copy each other. | This policy |
| Official only | Several pages on erstwhile.io agree, and nobody else has written it. | This policy |
| One source | A directory count, a single video, a crossword database. | This policy |
| Derived | My count from public numbers, labeled as a count. | This policy |
| Blank | No source. The cell stays empty. | This policy |
What I will not merge
A terms revision date is not a launch date. Alldle’s “since October 2026” is not the same sentence as a puzzle-number count back to 8 October. The clone site’s practice set is not a feature of erstwhile.io. Daily Investor and The Daily Investor stay as two products. If the pages disagree, both lines stay.
I do not publish the day’s year, the day’s holdings, a best portfolio, or a table of historical returns. The game’s terms page treats scripted solving and second-window scouting as reviewable. The archive of older days is a paid feature. Writing the answers here would cut across both.
Corrections and freshness
The check date on this build is 11 November 2026. Prices, play counts, and the Market snapshot are dated because they move. Send a correction to [email protected] with the page and the public URL you are looking at. I re-read the source before I change a number.
First-person notes at the bottom of each page are the judgment: what I kept separate, what I refused to upgrade. They are not a lab log.
Questions
Do you test codes in the game?
The game has no redemption codes, and this site has no code page. Rules are checked against public pages, not against a private account.
Can you add my asset ranking?
No. Names and price sources are the table. Returns are out.
