It will always be “Spice Spice Baby” in my heart.

@SirSalty This market should probably be enabled as a prize market?

@Predictor That would have been cool. I feel like I’m starting back at the bottom with a big fat zero staring at me. Even 5 spicy points would have been nice!

@Predictor Looks like it was released as "prize points". And everything else I assume is NO?

@Ziddletwix I’m not seeing it yet? Is it rolled out to everyone? Want to stay true to my resolution criteria. But yes, everything else would be no.

@Predictor Lol yeah sorry they rolled it out, and then immediately had some issues and had to pause the rollout. so i'm pretty confident this will still resolve as expected, the plans aren't changing, but they put it on hold after i pinged lol. so def hold resolution until it's actually launched

(i.e. that screenshot is what my profile showed at the time, but atm mine is i'm sure like yours and doesn't show the prize points again)

@Ziddletwix Okay, I dodged a bullet there! 😅

@Predictor and we're back, for now

The more you think about it, the better it becomes. Mana and Wana, like Mario and Wario. Wawinnings like Waluigi.

It's not going to be pepperoni, but I have to dream 🍕

@TonyPepperoni if it's implemented you can literally claim your name is money

if it's never launched, will that NA or NO all the naming options?

@GazDownright NO as appropriate

If still open to suggestions...

Health.

In videogames, you often have two pools: health and mana. Mana is always blue, and Manifold's current blue theme is surely a nod towards that.

So, embrace it further. Health and Mana. Use some red theming when we're doing something health (cash) related, and blue for play money.

Prize Points

name isn't final btw. was Win Points in the draft announcement. I personally think that sounds dumb. Steven likes the W M symmetry though

@Sinclair whoops :)

@Sinclair i like the symbol symmetry too (quite a lot, actually!) but "Win Points" is pretty bad. Could call the currency a "Winning" (plural: winnings) and yes in certain circumstances it could be a touch confusing but ... still better than "Win Points"

Edit: or "Wenning" to keep the pun and avoid some confusion.

Why is this multi choice independent?

@MartinRandall why should it sum to 100%?

@AnT if it's "all the things it has ever been called" then some options should already be resolved yes. So I'm guessing it is the thing it is called on market close. I don't really understand this market.

@MartinRandall It’s called I hit the wrong button when I created the market. Honestly what difference does it make. You can go independently adjust each percentage if it bothers you that much. And what if there is an instance that it is called more than one thing? Why limit yourself? I’m sick of people complaining about things. Just don’t participate and move on.

@Predictor I wasn't trying to complain, I was trying to understand how this market will resolve so I can have a better chance of winning. I'm sorry you felt criticized.

It's already called "spice" in the source code and in the "mana supply" section of the stats page. Is that enough to resolve "spice" to yes?

@MartinRandall And prize points in the FAQ, and WinPoints in the dialog window commented recently

@MartinRandall it looks like a complaint to me, but regardless complaints are the most directly beneficial type of comment to the creator, I can understand being fed up with non complaint comments because they make complaints easier to miss.
