@CodeandSolder if he pays out now it'll probably resolve >95% after community discussion but I'd rather not have any mana on the line when making the decision

Am I missing something? He said he'd pay out on the 15th, and he didn't. Isn't that a rug-pull?

@Joshua Yeah, I agree, the resolution criteria have already been met.

predicted YES

@JosephNoonan Even if it gets paid later, it wasn't paid out "as promised".

predicted YES

@JosephNoonan I was thinking later would be more PROB, with YES if he moves the money out somewhere else, but I don't feel strongly about that

predicted YES

@CodeandSolder He hasn't moved the money yet, but it's been almost two weeks since the payouts were promised. Would you consider it a YES if he doesn't pay out by the closing time of this market?

predicted YES

@JosephNoonan yeah, that certainly sounds like the correct option

@CodeandSolder Will not paying out on the date promised (today) count?

@lukres Ah nice, I didn't notice it before. It's a legitimate enterprise after all. I encourage everyone to join!

@lukres it does say "as promised", I think it should be at least PROB

I wonder if rugging would be a bannable offense

@brubsby i think you could bundle it under a number of the community guidelines at the discretion of admins.

predicted YES

@JamesBills Arguably not rugging is misleading, because I was promised a Ponzi scheme.

@JamesBills Are you going to pay or was it rigged after all?

Buy YES to hedge against the rug pull

I hope he will pay 🙄
