Thanks Isaac

@NicoDelon NP I always got your back

I made a similar market about whether such a plan will be thwarted:

If he has secret teammates he's keeping in reserve, does that count?

So, I think this question already resolves Yes?

Clever trick #1: Switching the market resolution from 1 week + a few hours to "resolve when there is no longer meaningful progress" allows him to receive loans from the market every day and reinvest those to guarantee a Whale victory.

@MarcusAbramovitch I find his reading of the initial rules completely reasonable and 2% loans on 1M capital is 20k/day, that's 2 minnows, he'd never win that way

@CodeandSolder it's compound interest and he most certainly could/would win that way

@MarcusAbramovitch I also thought so at first but it isn't, paid out loans get subtracted from the remaining amount, if he reinvests all loans the amount stays constant, equal to initial capital

Fair enough, my point remains that he can invest 2%/day, keeping the market open indefinitely and eventually winning

1. Pay the "meat puppet" NO organizer(s) to organize a switch to YES

2. Secretly many of the NO bettors are Isaac's alts and won't count.

Those both count as YES?

@MartinRandall 1 if he actually bribes them on a significant scale and not just offers it with no takers

As in, offering bribes is obvious and neither interesting nor surprising, but some cool twist on it or actually executing it on a large scale would most likely make it count

2 yes, but only because of how disappointing that would be

@CodeandSolder How about borrowing mana from @NinthCause?

@MartinRandall I dont think @Nithcause would do that.

@NinthCause @Austin can we get a confirmation that ninthcause wont loan mana out to individuals for the Minnows market?

@tornado Newsletter says:
> Among the top earners from The Market, both Isaac King and Marcus Abramovitch had large outstanding loans from Austin.

@MartinRandall I wish I was there to see Austin's face when Isaac told him that after winning M$500,000 by margin trading, he actually still needed the loan for just a little while longer.

In case that wasn't obvious from the title the actions also need to have the intent of gaining a significant advantage in the market. If somebody feels mislead by the omission of that requirement in the text I'm willing to compensate incurred losses.
