I will let the market decide about resolution. If it trades for more than for 4 weeks below 1%, resolution will be NO. If it trades for more than 4 weeks above 99%, resolution will be YES.

@GreenComp, could you either N/A this or change the resolution criteria?

As of the recent rule revisions, this market cannot resolve, because probabilities outside the range of 1% to 99% no longer are tradeable on Yes/No questions.

So if we legally are not allowed to say that President-for-Life Trump is a dictator, this will resolve NO?

@HarrisonNathan US rules don't apply abroad.

@BrunoParga I guess it would resolve based on how many traders are from the US and forced to buy NO then.

Wish there was more clarification about the resolution criteria. What does a dictatorship entail? No more elections? Supreme executive power?

@DavidDavidson "I will let the market decide about resolution. If it trades for more than for 4 weeks below 1%, resolution will be NO. If it trades for more than 4 weeks above 99%, resolution will be YES."

a bit weird as it opens up for manipulation - but that's the resolution criteria.

I naturally interpret this as meaning "more power than FDR", who some people say acted like a dictator. But "enough power to serve three terms" seems like another reasonable standard.
