At the end Pragg was down a bishop for a pawn (2 points) for several moves.

@Weezing Interpreted 2+ as >2 not >=2 ?

@ismellpillows it can be exactly 2

@Weezing Thanks for creating these markets and resolving so quickly! 🙂

bought Ṁ200 One of the trailing ... NO

Rest will be resolved later.

3 or more decisive games
opened a Ṁ100 3 or more decisive g... NO at 9% order

why NO? so far we only have 1 draw, so 3 wins is still possible. What am I missing?

sold Ṁ18 Hikaru wins against ... NO

@harfe yea, sorry, mistake. I will refund later.

bought Ṁ40 Answer #033178854f49 NO

@Weezing thx. you will refund me only when it actually happens, correct? I kinda liked my cheap YES shares there.

@harfe I can either way, but currently send button seems broken...

@Weezing maybe you can instead ask the admins to resolve to YES if it actually happens?

@harfe IIRC this type of market cant be re-resolved

@Weezing thanks for the refund I have received! Also, thanks for doing these markets!

how are the pawns in the game that already finished counted? as 0 pawns since they didnt reach move 35, or as 11 pawns?

aka "opposite side castling" ;)
