predicted YES

@AlexLiesman Out of 18 games played 11 were drawn and 7 were decisive, this market should resolve to YES

bought Ṁ80 of NO

The tiebreak games will count for this market if it gets to that point, right?

bought Ṁ6 of YES

@NamesAreHard I think all of the games should count in this market: classical, rapid, blitz, and sudden-death tiebreaker rounds. Btw vote here if you think that it will even get to blitz or tiebreaker rounds: https://manifold.markets/MayMeta/will-world-chess-championship-2023

predicted YES

@MayMeta Consistent with creator’s original intentions though had I realised this I would not have wagered. Oh well. https://manifold.markets/AlexLiesman/2023-chess-championship-will-there#RSdIXnYlw0Z5F7n7wBls

predicted NO

Also: does a draw in armageddon count as a draw or a win (for black)?

predicted NO

@EzraSchott armageddon is scored as normal draw for black is a draw

@EzraSchott I think they're not doing armageddon this time, they'll just keep playing blitz until somebody wins: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Chess_Championship_2023#Match_regulations

predicted NO

What are you guys smoking? Am I missing something?

predicted NO

@EzraSchott Never mind! I figured out what I was missing!
