, yes you, for a very important task. Nobody else is being shown this ad, so you are the only one who will be able to complete it.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create a cursed market. A lot is resting on your shoulders, but don't be intimidated. Any form of cursedness will do, and there is an infinitude of possibilities for your cursed market.

, you must post it in the comments section of this market: 

If you manage to make the most cursed market on Manifold markets, you will surely be able to make a hefty profit, as well as gain the admiration of your fellow Manifolders.

If you do not accept this mission, I will be very disappointed in you. You don't want me to be disappointed, do you?

The revolution of the common Manifolder has begun! Buy NO in this market to help defeat the whales:

Every person who bets NO makes it harder for the whales to win, even if you bet only a small amount. In fact, the smaller the amount, the harder it is for the whales to overcome it, since it won't lower the probability that they have to bet against.

This is a non-predictive market, so the displayed probability doesn't necessarily represent people's true credence in a whale victory. In other words, don't let the current probability fool you into thinking the whales have the momentum to win - they will need to have something big up their sleeves to overcome the proletariat masses. That makes this a potentially big profit opportunity.

Still think it's a risk? You can probably find some NO bettors willing to give you mana if you spend it in NO shares, making it completely risk-free for you.

Also, if you want to help the Minnow cause even more, betting on these market will find more ads:

Are you tired of whales using their massive capital to determine the results of self-resolving markets? Seize the means of market resolution for the common man by betting NO in this market! Be sure to buy only a small number of shares so that they may be distributed equitably among your comrades without letting the capitalist pigs exploit us by buying cheap YES shares.

Furthermore, trade in the following markets, as well as other markets in the Anti-Whale Aktion group. to help raise funds for the anti-whale cause. Vive la révolution!

So I saw some ads for some sort of "experiment" where people create a glorified chain letter out of ads, and I thought, "Let's turn this experiment into a game of telephone." If you see this ad, make some more ads linking back to it. No reason to make exactly five of them, make however many you want. Oh, and don't just copy the text from here. Put something different in. 

Anyway, here are the links back to the ads I saw:

But now for the real purpose of this ad: co-opting this experiment for my own gain! I have lots of markets that could use some more attention, and what better way to get them out there than to take someone else's social experiment and make it all about me?

This one's my most popular open market, and I'm hoping it gets more unique traders than my previous record:

This one is supposed to be a competition, but no one will submit anything. COME ON PEOPLE, JUST SUBMIT A CURSED MARKET! There's plenty of material for one.

Here are some markets that need more bettors to make them actually interesting:

And here's another one that you can bet on to screw me over by making it really hard to resolve:

OK, enough with the self-resolving crap, you want to make some easy, risk-free mana. Well, here are some silly markets with badly calibrated odds. Surely there's some profit to be made there.

Not all of my markets are silly, though. I have some serious physics and math markets that I'd like to get more traders on, but not many people have taken an interest in them.

Also, here are some free response markets that could use more answers:

Okay, now that I've co-opted this experiment for a shameless self-plug, it's time for you to do the same! Make whatever quantity of whatever type of ad you want, and link back to this one.

Furthermore, trade in the following market and other markets in the Anti-Whale Aktion group to help raise funds for the anti-whale cause. Vive la révolution!
