Hi @JohnHoeksema are you still on Manifold? It's been 8 months since I traded on this market haha. Your website appears to be down, and I think it's likely that this market will resolve to NO. If you still are around, and wanna do this, hit me up, and I can help you implement it.

@JohnHoeksema I bought that many shares because I wrote a simple py script to visit your website 10k times (stopped after 200), but ofc it's from a single ip
