Test must be assessed as “full scale” by CTBO or other national or international agency with the knowledge and capability to make such assessments.. A subcritical test or other partial test of components does not count. A failed full scale test,aka “a Dud”, will not satisfy the requirement.
Countries listed are: (a) known to have nuclear weapons, (b)have nuclear weapons capabilities under development, or (c) known to have had nuclear weapons development programs that have been shutdown.
1,000@Stralor this should N/A before it misleads more people like me. The market is dependent, but the real situation might be that several countries do the test or none will.
Or it could be made into a question
"Conditional on at least one nuclear test being conducted in 2024, which country will do the test first?"
I think that is exactly the case where moderators should take markets under their wing.
(IMHO: Also dependent markets Have to be visually distinguishable from independent.)
@KongoLandwalker oof, I see your point. yeah, if I had real takeover powers I'd add a "none" option. as is, that must resolve to "other".
I think this is still salvageable however if it's treated as "which country will be first". objections?
@CivilizedGuy I'm assuming this will resolve to one of the "Other"s if no country has a full scale test?
@JoshuaWilkes I am assuming they will all resolve as 'no' but it bothers me that @CivilizedGuy didn't answer.
@HarrisonNathan Unfortunately they can't because this is a dependent market.
It's also not obvious what happens if two different countries conduct tests.
