This is the Manifold Markets official announcement regarding the drama over the last couple of days with this market:

Admittedly a lot of what I'm about to share isn't a definite answer/boundary but I wanted to provide some insight anyways into our internal discussion.

There are 2 main points of discussion to be had from this.

1) Do we take any action about the misresolved market?

2) Do we make any changes to our policy/mechanisms to minimise this behaviour going forward?

To answer the first point, we have decided that we will NOT be taking any action for the time being. 

However, after careful consideration, we want to say that we might change the resolution of these markets to N/A if we do end up implementing a mechanism that allows us to retroactively change the resolution of a market. We partly want to implement this mechanism also for markets that were accidentally misresolved. 

We will only make a final decision if this ends up being implemented (and will take into consideration the community's thoughts gathered on this market).

Regarding the second point, we are planning to make some changes to our policy to protect users from having similar bad experiences in the future. We still need to figure out how this looks but I will hopefully add an edit and comment once we have decided.

The first step is making sure Manifold has the right to fix the resolution of markets part of any official tournaments. Besides this specific case, we still need to figure out the line between complete user autonomy and protecting the user experience.
