This market is a ranking competition in which humans are evaluated across six traits: Physical Strength, Wisdom, Creativity, Value, Intelligence, and Wealth.


Scoring System

  • I will select 12 humans with the best winning chance to rank.

  • Ranks 1 through 12 will earn 15, 12, 9, 6, 3, 0, -1, -2, -3, (-5 for #10+) points respectively.

  • An option’s overall score is the sum of the points it receives across all six trait rankings. The option with the highest score

While personal preference and subjective judgment cannot be eliminated entirely, I will make a good-faith effort to answer questions and explain how I evaluate each trait and determine relative rankings.

Differences from Ammon Lam's market:
1. Six traits, to more broadly represent humankind
2. Negative points for low scoring

3. Creativity allows artists and value accounts for great leaders.
4. Wisdom is purely subjective and depends on philosophical stances and general goodwill
5. IMPORTANT: dead people can participate!
6. Ambiguous entries will NOT be disqualified.

As the market is subjective, I will not trade.
Close date: Jul 1st 2026.

If there is a tie, it will resolve to 100/tied entries for each entry.
I have added all previous winners as options.
Liquidity is low to encourage new options.
