From what I can tell, the PoTW hosts have always been 9th graders (Erica + Alec, COVID so no PoTW (I think?), Spencer + Rivka). However, this year (from what I hear) the hosts are Alex and Hannah, both of whom are not freshmen. I have no knowledge of how these people get selected (if anyone does know, feel free to comment), so I have no knowledge of whether it was requested by them, if no freshmen wanted to do it, or something else.

Closing date may be adjusted depending on when the first day of school is.

Also, I'm sort of trusting y'all, since I can't personally find out who the hosts are, so, uh, don't collude against me or anything (looking at you, @Conflux).

Edit: Resolves to % of hosts who are freshmen

Should re-resolve NO. Marie/Noemi/Sophia Shen

@cece do you need me to unresolve for you? I forget what perms people have these days

@Conflux yeah if you could that'd be great. thanks

@cece done

bought Ṁ1,000 of NO

Dr.V says they aren't 9th graders, but hasn't revealed who they are.

@DeadRhino shoot wait

@cece sorry i remembered the market before i checked the comments lemme reresolve

@cece @SirSalty i did an oopsie could you please reresolve to NO

@cece Can we wait until an official announcement of the hosts before resolving NO? They still haven’t presented any Problems of the Week

@Conflux ah. that makes sense.

@cece should it remain closed until confirmed? or should betting still be allowed

@cece I’d say betting allowed

predicted YES

wait what happens if potw stops existing

@Conflux i guess N/A; is it not a thing anymore?

predicted YES

@cece idk, but I haven't heard anything about it yet. maybe next week?

predicted NO

@cece no POTW has happened yet

@DeadRhino i'll N/A if i receive no objections by the end of the day. thanks

Past years, for reference:
Y1: Lili and Isaac (both 9th)
Y2: Oliver and Josh Zhu (9th and 8th)

Y3: Jon Pan + JSY (11th and 10th)

Y4: Some subset of Aditi, Caiya, Sophie (records unclear – all 9th though)

@stq Y4 was apparently Aditi and Zoe Z who were both in 9th grade
