These options resolve YES if Tim Walz says the exact sequence of words during his first debate with JD Vance, currently scheduled for October 1st on CBS.

  • This will follow the same rules as the Trump-isms Debate Megamarket—see the original market for more detailed resolution examples.

  • You can add your own responses, but note (1) I intend to be strict with resolution (following the rules below), & (2) I reserve the right to edit all entries to better match the spirit of the market.

  • Resolution might take a few days because I'd like to consult the transcript.

  • This will likely close before the debate to return liquidity to submitters.

Resolution examples:

  • Needs to be exact same words (in order): "laughing at all of us" does not count for "laughing at us".

  • Needs to match tense & pluralization: "winner", "won", or "winnings" do not count for "winning", and "Project 2025's ideas" doesn't count for "Project 2025".

  • However, any punctuation is fine ("Billions! And billions..." counts for "billions and billions"), and contractions count as the expanded words ("what's" is equivalent to "what is").

  • An abbreviation is its own word: "MAGA" does not match "Make America Great Again", "LGBT" does not match "LGBTQ".

  • Different ways of transcribing the same word count: "January 6th" matches "January sixth".

  • To add flexibility to an answer, use parentheses or an "or". So " 'Free lunch(es)' or 'school lunch(es)' " matches "free lunches", "school lunch", & etc.

opened a Ṁ690 "Couch" NO at 20% order

Just three days until the debate, so not expecting a ton of action here, but to celebrate the return of unique trader bonuses I spun up a quick market for old time's sake.

(Low base liquidity, so I'll try and keep NO limit orders up at some price for each option when I have the time)
