The State of the Union market at time of writing (24th feb, 1:40am GMT) makes a fair few predictions with confidence (<35% or >65%). But how successfully predictive is that market? How many of the following statements will prove to be true of this long running market in the impending State of the Union event? Resolution is determined by the related market.

Resolved to 20, was a miscount and actually 22, maybe a little more due to not everything being determined yet. Therefore it'll end up in the "21 to 25" category, good job Dscc on working it out more accurately than me.
Dscc, Cory, and Moonbunny will get managrams of their respective amounts. I'll wait a little while in case it's challenged again or all 4 of the yet to be determined ones end up being true. Feel free to so we get it right this time.

@AlanTennant I'm pretty sure you counted wrong? This is my list(Sorry I couldn't help earlier, was sleeping)) using ctrl + f and verified by giving gemini the full API paste. You skipped a lot of them, like Benjamin Netanyahu not in attendence, not wearing the exact same design of tie, John Fetterman being in attendance, Susan Collins not being in attendance, etc. Technically it could still reach 26 correct resolutions, but the ICE mentions market is at 3%, and China/Censure markets are <50%, so very unlikely.

@Dssc I'll send if nothing happens in the coming days, make sure everyone gets their proper winnings, It's only 127 mana.
@mods Sorry for early re-ping but I don’t want them to managram (and I don’t know if edit tags add to queue?), resolution should change to “21-25” based on the above because of a miscount.
edit: not sure what I meant with this comment
@AlanTennant Anyone could have done that. In the future you can close a market so people can’t bet on it while you’re sorting out how to resolve it.
edit: resolved this
Ukraine during delegate coverage, does this count? edit: void, duplicate
