We sold 652 tickets, and had 745 ppl in the airtable backend including staff and guests and so on.
Most relevantly, we checked in 636 unique people, and I don't think that there were 64 ppl of guests/staff/etc who somehow got in without being checked in. Like, I think there were at least 10 (e.g. me, a few children, etc), but not 64. So resolving to 600-699.
It also helps to have noise-traders so that trading volume increases. Improves accuracy. So, thanks for your donation 😉
@BenPace but buying YES makes NO shares cheaper, so it creates an incentive for somebody who can influence the outcome to buy cheap NO and make the market resolve that way, thus collecting sweet profit. So it seems like @Devansh also doesn't want 900 people to attend (or am I missing another layer to a joke or something)?
