I'm thinking of a thing. You have a week and at most 20 Yes-or-No questions to figure out exactly what thing it is.
If you get it right, you win!
I've put in a few questions, but you'll have to add your own from here on out.
The Rules
A couple of times per day at my discretion, I'll answer two unresolved questions about the thing by resolving each: the valid question that is bet the highest and the valid question that is bet the lowest (except "WILL YOU WIN?", which resolves at the end of the game).
Valid questions are those that can be resolved YES or NO and are new info. They don't need to be properly written, but it must be clear to me what's going on. Examples:
"Is it round?"
"ball"
"uhh i think maybe its the eiffel tower"
"is it a DOG or a CAT?!?" ⚠️ but careful, this one would be answered YES or NO without further explanation
If there's tricky compound logic, multiple questions in one, it's a troll answer, or I just can't understand the intent of it clearly, it isn't a valid question and will either be ignored or resolved N/A with prejudice.
However, if it's valid but I feel neither YES or NO is wholly correct, I will resolve PROB and not count it as one of your 20.
Resolution
🎉 If one of the questions I answer is the thing: 🎉
WILL YOU WIN? resolves YES
Bonus: M$200 prize to the person whose question got it right
😭 If you don't guess the exact thing within 20 answers: 😭
WILL YOU WIN? resolves NO
All remaining questions will resolve N/A.

@Stralor Whoah! Didn't expect to win. I'm surprised all the questions I added were spot on. I'll see about running the next round. I definitely need to think of a better way for how questions will be chosen before I do. I think something like choosing the ones closest to 50%, as that means they're the most informative? But that's a problem because that encourages not betting as well as submitting at the last moment.
@Shump looks like @MrLuke255 jumped on it, but definitely coordinate with him. I think it's fair if you call dibs on the round after that, or you could do a simultaneous round. your call! and definitely run it however it makes sense to you! :)
@Stralor I started working on my copy before you resolved this one, didn't think that you will be awarding a possibility to run the next round 😅
@Stralor Is it primarily used for storage? (If that resolves yes, my guesses in order of likelihood would be box, cabinet, drawer, shelf)
@oh while they are technically distinct I'd let it pass, especially bc of subtle differences in dialects
@Stralor oh I meant there were two options in the market, but if there's two tries left then that makes sense lol
@oh did you really lose mana? you should silently be getting the remaining subsidy refunded when they close. unless you're losing mana on the bets, I suppose?
@Stralor Guess cuz it’s silent I didn’t realize that’s how it works. And yeah, also lost on the bets when trying to make useful options the highest and lowest and quark questions in the middle.
