I will resolve any answers to these questions as soon as I have time to resolve and the result has become clear. If an answer is potentially ambiguous, I will wait to see thoughts posted on explain xkcd, and will either resolve or conclude N/A based on the possible consensus there.

Others are free to add options. I will delete duplicates and ask regarding resolution criteria for potentially vague options, or questions that I am not sure how to resolve. If you believe that there is potentially a vague option, feel free to comment so we can address the issue as early as possible.

I may bet in this market.

Incredibly, it's now July 27 in Randall's timezone, so any comic released now will be a Saturday comic (according to the wiki, just the second since 2006!). Does that mean this market resolves with just two comics?

I used the word “for” in the question, because even if Randall posts late, I would say that it is for the given dates in the question.

It looks like the listed date in the website archive is July 26 as well!

@Calibrate What if there aren't any digits? Resolves NO?

I definitely bet Resolves YES because I’m my mine empty sum = 0, but I’m willing to take the loss if that wasn’t the intention

Resolves YES, for the reasoning @EBurk described. I expected 60-70% for this option and was surprised to see it at 50% earlier today!

I don't suspect this is going to change much, but this doesn't include the title text, either -- only the comic itself. Unfortunately I can't edit it anymore!

Updated

Thank you!
