Syzygy tried to upload an SVG icon for a quadricolor flag: check the mime-type of https://d1anwqy6ci9o1i.cloudfront.net/users%2F884%2Ficons%2Fvsd39uuvk1b8q154x5uog6_elkia.png. Syzygy has also used fancy CSS for the tables of rock-paper-scissors outcomes. I think this is strong evidence against Syzygy being Eliezer.

That is a good point, but not, fortunately for you if you are correct, good enough to stop me from continuing to bet YES.

If Syzygy is an account used by Eliezer and another author cowriting the thread disguised as a single author, which way does this thread resolve?

@Aevylmar Er, this question, sorry for the misstatement.

@Aevylmar I would resolve it YES if Eliezer is cowriting even if he's not writing the whole thing, NO if it's entirely written by another author who is asking him a large number of questions behind the scene.

@Arete Thanks!
