Doesn't need to be a power user, but they need to actually engage with the site. Can't be someone who just made an account, placed 1 bet, then never did anything again. (I will exclude @TobiasVyseri.)

We can play online via Cockatrice.

I won't bet in this market.

What is the status of this market?
- Past - How many challenges has @IsaacKing received, answered, and, ostensibly, successfully defended against?
- Future - How much capacity does @IsaacKing have for answering new and repeat challenges from now and through to the end of the year?

@ShitakiIntaki I have not played any games against a Manifold user yet, as I haven't been using Manifold for the past few months. Now that I'm active here again I'm open to games.

Judge Tower sounds so cool to me from the videos I've watched, I totally wanna try it! My main hesitance about betting YES is that I fear your mad mtg judge skillz

@Conflux I have lost many games of Judge's Tower, but usually only to other experienced Judge's Tower players.

I don't really enjoy playing online, so I think this market being at 50% is about right if that's the only option. (I do still plan to play some; I promised Tyler, and I want to try a few games with others as well.)

However if I ever meet a Manifold user in person who wants to play, I'll happily play quite a few games, and this market should probably go up.

predicted YES

@IsaacKing yeah! I mean, I've played Magic for many years, but I'm not, well, a judge

bought Ṁ35 of YES

We're tentatively scheduled to play next Tuesday. First to X points, but we haven't decided what X is. (X is always 5, right? ;)

@TylerColeman Note that this is very tentative, I'm quite busy for most of March, so I'm not sure if I'll have time to set it up. But we'll definitely play at some point!

How about we make the shame count 2?

predicted YES

@IsaacKing Seems pretty short, without a practice round. Don't you think someone might mess up on turn 1, somehow? What if we say the real counting starts once either someone makes it to turn 3, or we begin round 3? That way, I at least get a few turns to practice with the interface and such.

@TylerColeman We can always play more than one game.

predicted YES

@TylerColeman Isaac's taking a rain check for today.

bought Ṁ2 of NO

@TylerColeman how did the match go Tyler?

We never played; we should reschedule. I'll PM you on Discord Tyler. :)

I want to try Judge's Tower, but I haven't used Cockatrice, before. How hard would the setup be to plan a game together, and install the software?

@TylerColeman I installed it. It's very friendly software, even offered to install into a single, portable folder. Quickly gained access to all the cards, up to the latest set! Shall I build a 125-card deck for merging into our shared card pool?
