Inspired by @shankypanky's, @Joshua's, @strutheo's and @Conflux's bingo markets.

I'll be in La Rochelle (France) for an internship. Feel free to add options or suggest options in comments. (If you add an option you'll get the trader bonuses on that option. If I add it, I'm paying the creation cost, but also keeping the bonuses).

I may bet on this market.

💸 Bounty 💸 : For nice things I'll be glad I did afterwards and would not have thought of without suggestions, I may award tips (likely in the range 10 - 100 M per cool thing). Both comments and direct addition of options will make you eligible ; if you add a nice option yourself please leave a comment so that I can easily tip later.

Relevant bits :

  • I'm arriving at March 31st, and will be staying for 5 months (until August 25th-ish)

  • I'm a chemistry grad and math undergrad student, and the internship is part of the mandatory things for my chemistry school.

  • I will go back to Paris at least once in May, and for this market what happens in Paris stays in Paris - ie if not self-evident or specified otherwise, experiences and encounters in Paris will, by default, not trigger any resolution on this market.

  • By default, what happens nearby La Rochelle counts for this market - for example anything happening while I'm visiting a neighbouring city.

  • Feel free to add things that can happen without my intention/intervention like "encounter a protest" or "see someone walk into a wall"

Policy on junk / obvious / ... options is "try me at your own risks". (Yeah, if you add "drink water" and put 10k M on "no" there's a certain chance I put all my balance on "yes", go drink some water, and take your mana). However, I do like fun things (subjectively defined, oops) so don't get afraid unless you're thinking about some seriously low-level unfunny trolling. For options that feel too intimate to disclose, what I do will depend on the specifics. I may N/A immediately, I may comment "I will flip a coin X times at market close, resolve to the opposite of the truth if it's all tails, and resolve honestly otherwise" (in which case I commit not to buy or sell any shares after starting flipping the coins), or anything else that comes to my mind.

As usual, feel free to ask questions.
