Will I be able to resolve this market to YES with my eyes closed on the instructions of other traders? [M$200 subsidy]

Resolved
YES

When this market closes, I'll briefly reopen it and enter a stream on the Manifold discord where I share my screen and close my eyes. I'll attempt to resolve the market to YES using only my memory of my screen and instructions given by the other people in the call.

If I end up resolving it to anything else instead, that resolution will stand.

Last time I did this it ended up being a little anticlimactic, so this time I've subsized the market with an extra M$200.

@IsaacKing Reminder that we're going to be doing this in 10-30 minutes, so hop in the Discord chat if you want to participate.

predicted NO

Ok, it has been way too long. Let's get this resolved. If you want to join the stream, please comment with a day and time you can join within the next few days. (Convert to Pacific Time for simplicity since that's where I and most Manifold users are from.)

predicted YES

@IsaacKing Oct. 30 at 2PM PST (or later)?

@loops Was an attempt made?

predicted YES
predicted NO

Nobody commented while I had free time, and I was busy by October 30th. At this point I'm probably just going to start a stream in the Discord at an arbitrary time.

predicted NO

Sorry for the delay. How's today for everyone?

@IsaacKing did you try it?

predicted NO

My apologies for not doing this as planned. I'll do it tomorrow instead.

@Wobbles What time today works best for you?

predicted NO

@Wobbles Any news?

predicted NO

@Wobbles Eh, let's just do next week. That seems like it'll be more convenient for everyone.

predicted NO

@Wobbles I don't know, are you gonna win your match in round 3?

predicted YES

@IsaacKing sorry I didn't notice you responded. I can do it in the next hour, but I have work soon

predicted YES

@IsaacKing ok that's fine, but the real question is when are we gonna play magic

predicted YES

@IsaacKing why can't we just play a practice game togetherrrr

Can I know when you're gonna do it, so I know if I'm busy or not

predicted NO

@Wobbles When are you free that day?

predicted YES

@IsaacKing 4-10pm cst lol

predicted NO

@Wobbles Ok, I'll try to make sure it resolves during that time.

bought Ṁ55 of YES

@IsaacKing do you have a time for today?

bought Ṁ20 of NO

Also, to be clear, I will actually try to resolve it to YES. e.g. if someone says "click now to resolve it to NO", I won't click.

(I didn't bother doing that on the last market since everyone in the voice chat was in agreement on how it should resolve, so they could have just told me the button was labeled YES rather than NO and I'd have no way to confirm.)

@IsaacKing since the YES resolution button is to the left of the NO resolution button, perhaps you should click slightly to the left of where the traders tell you to clock, to maximize the chances of resolving YES

predicted NO

@AndrewG But then they can just tell me to click slightly to the right of where the button is. :)
