@CertaintyOfVictory This is a subset of 2100 - 2200.

@Elspeth Yes, and a subset of <40000 but I'll make more mana by betting the exact year.

@CertaintyOfVictory The options are mutually exclusive.

@Elspeth What makes you think that?

@CertaintyOfVictory Trading on one causes the others to change prices.

@Elspeth Oh, yeah, I see. Makes no sense at all to allow free response then. Can you sort that out, please @ThothHermes? Seems like your market is misconfigured.

if we make some big quick advancements in life extension tech, and Yudowsky is around alive and well at age 150 without ever needing to be cryopreserved, what does this market resolve to?

I love this question but you might want to re-create it as a multiple choice question rather than free response. Free response lets anyone submit more answers and is better used for questions that are open-ended, but doesn't really make sense here.
(If you resolve this N/A you'll get your mana back)

I assume “Other” refers to the case where things “work out” but with no cryopreservation
