Not sure how to resolve this, I can place bets on large markets without this error showing. Tempted to n/a all these bug markets where resolution is unclear

@ian I believe this was specifically a problem due to site overloading from the Destiny people. If nothing has been changed to address this issue for the next time the site gets overloaded, I think this should resolve NO.

@IsaacKing afacit @JamesGrugett attempted some fixes, e.g. see here: https://github.com/manifoldmarkets/manifold/commit/f6e5d5333ea2eee7e68500ab24f8e9ce3cf6177a

@ian here: https://github.com/manifoldmarkets/manifold/commit/448a3119109769ba9677962b9e35ff38cb98677f

@ian and here: https://github.com/manifoldmarkets/manifold/commit/cdf4cddd23d7199b45b2855595c64756c8e1acbe

@ian It sounds like you’re saying that if a fix has been attempted, and the bug’s not receiving any new reports, that counts as fixed?

@ian Then I think this should remain open until after the next time the site gets overloaded. (Or the next few times, just to be sure.) If no one reports the same issue, it can resolve to YES. If the bug happens again, it can resolve to NO.

@IsaacKing That seems reasonable but

@RyanThomas The site not yet getting into the state that causes the bug is not the same as the bug being fixed.

"This one account is having placing bets; the bug doesn't apply to anyone else. Ok, just delete their account entirely and now that bug is fixed."

@IsaacKing *having trouble placing

*but we have deprecated this bug bot so I've a mind to just n/a all the markets

@IsaacKing Yeah, that’s basically where I want to lead to with the question.

@ian Seems like a fair move, given the lack of clear criteria. That said, I’d love for it to instead resolve No since the bug existed, and definitely isn’t definitely fixed.

Also you have M$1000 on NO. :)

@ian I wouldn't be too upset if this were resolved N/A, I can understand why you'd want to do so. But I don't think that's the correct resolution; finding out for sure whether the bug is fixed is difficult, but there is a single YES/NO answer in principle.

@IsaacKing Yeah exactly

@ian I'm still having this problem in the same situations as before, namely:

1. I open a lot of tabs to various Manifold markets in mobile Chrome

2. I start making bets in those markets

3. I'm able to make the first couple of bets successfully

4. Then I start getting "Error placing bet" if I try any more

5. If I close all my Manifold tabs and start over, opening no more than threeish tabs at once, then I can place bets fine

@tcheasdfjkl Out of curiosity, what happens if you open the javascript console, type "localStorage.clear()", press enter, and then reload the page?

Does that fix the bug?

@IsaacKing not sure how to do that on mobile

@tcheasdfjkl Oh, right, mobile exists. Never mind. :)

Welp: what’s the outcome? 😂

I also had this problem a while ago (on mobile only I think)

@tcheasdfjkl Additional info: I have this problem specifically if I open a bunch of Manifold market tabs in mobile Chrome; I think I don't have it if I'm just in a single tab, or on desktop

Also happening on smaller markets.

Also, it looks like half of my limit order went through and the other half didn't, which shouldn't be possible.
