If this market resolves no, then it should resolve yes, because the answer to this question "Will this question resolve no?" would be yes. But if it resolves yes, then it should resolve no, because it did not resolve no, so the answer to the question "Will this question resolve no?" would be no.

One might think that I can get out of this by resolving the question as N/A, or as some percentage. But those will still answer the "Will this question resolve no?" question in the negative - N/A and percantages certainly aren't answers of no.

Even leaving this market open forever won't solve this. After all, that's not resolving it as no, either.

Hm.

Will this question resolve NO? 50% is the solution.

See, if this market resolves 50%, then it should resolve 50%, because the answer to this question "Will this question resolve no?" would be 1-50%=50%. But if it resolves 50%, then it should resolve 1-50%=50%, because it did not resolve 1-50%=50%, so the answer to the question "Will this question resolve no?" would be 50%.

And yes, my brain seems to be written in JavaScript.
