If I make a bot that duplicates "Resolves YES in 24 hours. I will buy 5 mana of NO every time a new user (to this market, user must not be a bot) places a trade." daily and buys the NO shares automatically, will it get banned within a week?

Resolves YES if I make the bot and it gets banned within a week. Resolves NO if I make the bot and it doesn't get banned within a week. Resolves N/A otherwise. To be clear, it would be duplicating this market every day.

Could you point me to how to create a bot for manifold markets?

Frankly I don't see why this bot wouldn't be banned, it's pretty clearly a ban-worthy offense according to the community guidelines.

@Gabrielle Usually, they are pretty lax with their moderation I think.

predicted NO

Help me test my bot. This market will be open for an hour:

@ZZZZZZ It seems to be working.

predicted NO

@ZZZZZZ Anyone have a suggestion for the simplest place to host it? the bot is written in c#.

In order to be fair you should keep duplicates publicly listed, just like the original one.

@Yoav Yeah, they would be publicly listed.

Does this code look good? https://pastebin.com/nm8Udsjd

@ZZZZZZ I guess it needs to handle when the market closes, resolving YES and creating another.

@ZZZZZZ There, I made those improvements: https://pastebin.com/qfJciCSX
