So, uh, @ithildulin is significantly better than me in every way, by which I mean that they have not lost to me once in any competition we both took part in. (I placed 13th nationwide? Well, they placed 9th, and Leah never let me hear the end of it *incoherent grumbles* )

Market resolves NO if there exists some standard- math, AP test, etc- that both @ithildulin and I take and I get at least as good a score as they do, so long as the standard measures both of our abilities relatively close to each other (i.e. if I do better in an AP test that I take in senior year than they do in freshman year, it doesn't count, but if we both take it in the same year and they don't outperform me, then it does count). Hope that makes sense!

While I doubt that I'll ever outperform @ithildulin, it is very possible that we both take a standard (around the same time) that is easy enough for both of us to ace, or hard enough for both of us to miserably fail. (I think my only chance at this is AP Calculus, but one can hope...)

I'm open to answering questions (mostly about what counts as a standard). In general, though, it should be a pretty widely recognized standard (so, like, I can't say "I wrote more words on my essay than you!", but even performing higher in a specific section of the SAT than them would count).

predicted NO

manifold markets portfolio value, arguably the pinnacle of all standards

@Conflux oh wait true @halfaswiftie resolve no now

predicted YES

@Conflux i meant more like academic standard, or some standard that we both sort of care equally about (otherwise i'm like infinitely better than amelia at being tall)

predicted NO

@halfaswiftie does competition math count

@halfaswiftie you're not even that tall

i think we care equally about portfolio value (i care so much mhmhmhm)

@DeadRhino yes but i'm still better than him at comp math

@ithildulin no jk i think you'll have done better than me at bamo this year i sorta screwed it up

predicted YES

@ithildulin yea but ur just short

predicted YES

@ithildulin also bamo was difficult this year as in i p much only solved 1, 2, and a bit of 3 (and 4 but i didn't write it down) so u did better i think
