As an update: I currently have 611 ppl in my database, including 48 guests and 7 staff, everything else is paid tickets. So unless something quite surprising happens, this number will be over 600. I think over 700 is unlikely, but not inconceivable.

bought Ṁ50 YES

Update: Last night LessOnline crossed 300 tickets sold.

(Sold! Counting ~50 volunteer tickets, but not counting free tickets to bloggers, staff, etc.)

bought Ṁ500 YES

did you know you can change reality by buying yes on markets?

It also helps to have noise-traders so that trading volume increases. Improves accuracy. So, thanks for your donation 😉

To be clear, my position is that it would be a mistake to have 900 people at Lighthaven at the same time, and people would be having a bad experience from overcrowding, so I am not likely to try to straightforwardly sell that many tickets. My guess is like 750 is pushing it.

@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)?

bought Ṁ50 YES

Data: so far we have sold ~100 tickets, plus confirmed ~30 free tickets for authors.
