My good buddy is going to USACO Camp this year.

He claims that he will not develop a crush, but this does not seem like him.

Our other friend claims that "he will bet all his money and both kidneys" that my good buddy will develop a crush.

He swears on his very, very, very expensive refrigerator (it has one of those see through doors!!) that he will tell me if he does develop a crush at USACO Camp.

For context, my buddy discloses that his age is "between 15-17". He is most likely straight, given his past record. USACO Camp gender distribution last year was 23 boys to 9 girls.

This market resolves YES if he develops a crush during USACO Camp or within 1 week of USACO Camp ending.

This market resolves NO if otherwise.

• Update 2025-05-08 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has clarified that the market resolves based on whether the friend develops a crush on someone else. It does not resolve based on someone else developing a crush on the friend.

• Update 2025-05-08 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has clarified the specific dates for USACO Camp 2025:

  • The camp will run from the 22nd to the 31st (of the relevant month in 2025). This defines the timeframe for the resolution condition 'develops a crush during USACO Camp' and the end date for calculating 'within 1 week of USACO Camp ending'.

I feel like this may be relevant information: My good buddy has announced that his parents WILL NOT be going with him to USACO Camp, which is located across the country from where he lives.

• Update 2025-06-02 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has clarified that if the friend develops a crush on himself or his reflection, this will count towards a YES resolution.
