Seems like this will resolve N/A with the pivot, since the 1000 Mana payout will not be possible

@Soli Do I understand right that this should resolve YES, with anamax receiving 1000 mana?

@Bayesian the question was closed right after he placed the trade by mistake so no one else had a chance to place a bet. I noticed yesterday 😅 so I reopened the question. Do you think anamex should still win?

@Soli Oh LOL ig not

Last, bet 6 seconds before

@ShyamJayesh The date keeps getting extended until there is a 7 day period

@ChristopherRandles i am preparing a nice twist for this game to make it more interesting and hopefully get it closed eventually - right now it is too boring

"The market resolves to the position taken by the last trader."
Wait so if the last trade is a yes but that person holds a no position then does it resolve yes as per question title or no as per description?
Or is this selling a holding so that doesn't count, but the previous trade could still be theirs and therefore over a week so it might resolve to their position but more likely someone else traded and so it doesn't resolve?

@Lorxus this long-game reminds me of the Tontine

@KongoLandwalker Is this worse as new people can join at any time?

Do API bets count? Do bot accounts count?

@Lion i think they should not count but is it possible to add a tag or something like that that would indicate to the bots they should not be betting on this market?

@Soli Maybe add it to the resolution criteria, I don't think it's possible to ban bots from markets righ now. But whenever a bot directly places a bet after a manual bet, this one would become pretty useless.

@Lion i added it to the title and description - thank you for calling this out!!

@Soli You can just specify that the market closes 7 days after "the last bet not made by a bot"

@CDBiddulph thank you!

if nothing happens till tomorrow then we have our winner

ok so, I think the way we gain anything whatsoever from this is if everyone knows they'll get more mana out of cooperating than defecting. I propose that someone makes a bet and vows to split the mana they end up receiving among all the people that see this market and consider betting (or to a good approx, the people reacting to that person's comment, for example), and end up not doing so for the benefit of cooperation.

@TheBayesian Great idea. Currently I'm the last bet. (I don't think limit orders count.) If I win, I'll keep 50% and split the remaining 50% equally between everybody who likes this comment.

@Fion watch out for someone to say "give us a better rate or else i bet" 😆

@TheBayesian We're all dictators in this game. Somebody else can bet and say they'll keep 40%, or 60%, or 100%. But it's not like we get to vote, or compete. I can just keep defecting until you all accept my terms. And so can everybody else!

@Fion hahaha this is never resolving

@TheBayesian This could work, but there are two bots involved

Seems like this might never resolve

@ItsMe bet on it here ;)
