Will the @alleycat vs. Pico final exam market, which should have been resolved in December, be resolved by the end of June?

It was pretty clear on test day that @alleycat lost, and the exams were officially graded over a month ago. This means the linked market should resolve NO.

I asked her why the market was still unresolved, and she said "bc I didn't resolve it". Though she acknowledges that Pico outscored her, she continues to refuse to resolve the market without providing a reason. She has resolved other markets and been plenty active on Manifold.

I made a similar market for end of January, and it resolved NO despite pleas from many other Proofniks on Manifold, as well as a comment from the Manifold community manager. (Though Pico himself is unbothered for some reason. Also, the lack of resolution may be related to a private bet made, but I'm not sure.) She seemingly hasn't taken any Manifold actions since my previous market was posted except the resolution of this other market three hours later.

I feel that this is quite dishonorable, and encourage @alleycat to resolve the market and apologize to NO bettors. In the meantime, I suggest everyone be wary of betting on her markets.

Note that this market resolves YES even if the market is resolved by a Manifold admin instead of @alleycat. Still, it's a personal market and I don't have hard proof, so maybe an admin resolution is a bit extreme.

General policy for my markets: In the rare event of a conflict between my resolution criteria and the agreed-upon common-sense spirit of the market, I may resolve it according to the market's spirit or N/A, probably after discussion.
