bought Ṁ150 YES

@silva95gustavo want to trade for larger size?

bought Ṁ250 NO

@spiderduckpig No, I'm done. I feel like you are about to apply whale tactics.

@silva95gustavo What if I promise to not be a whale

@spiderduckpig I'm not fighting someone in Master's league...

bought Ṁ100 YES

Just an arbitrage, no?

@spiderduckpig It's possible the main market resolves no without ever dropping below 10%, because people think someone will swoop in with the correct answer at the last second

@archvenison But surely someone could make a bot that just bets it down to 0 at the very end, and gets all of those resting orders, since I'm pretty sure only answers submitted before the deadline count

@spiderduckpig Sure, and someone with could make a bot to do the reverse and post the answer. And it seems likely that an answer posted in the minute or so isn't checked until after the deadline. So in the battle of last minute moves, it's the side betting towards 0 that has to be reactive

@archvenison (To be clear, I've been consistently betting yes here. I think it should be like 3-5% below the invers of the main market)

@archvenison You would need to be extremely confident that your answer is exactly correct.

@Eliza Agreed. But if we consider the first round, once you knew the answer it was very clearly correct.

That being said, I would never feel confidant enough to try this kind of shenanigans. But I find myself consistently underestimating the shenanigans that happen on meta-markets

@archvenison Also I noticed you hold no in this market. What's your rationale?

@archvenison Holding Yes would constrain my ability to attempt to answer the puzzle correctly, since I would need to sell all my shares here before each time I submit a guess.

add more liquidity and things can happen....
