I'm planning on hosting an event in which I give out awards to notable manifold users. I'll have physical items to give out and users will have a ~minute (or less depending on how many awards we have) to give an acceptance speech. I'll bring slides of their achievements (or misdeeds). Add more answers and give me ideas of what award(s) they should get!

Hang on, @100Anonymous did indeed definitely win an award

Yet for some reason they are resolved no here?

The only other user who could possibly be credited with that award would be me due to coming up with the whole thing about cyclohexane chairs, yet I'm resolved no as well.

It seems very unfair to be resolved no just because technically it was their market that won rather than the user themselves. Justice for @100Anonymous !

@TheAllMemeingEye yep, I was actually searching for this market to arbitrage

@TheAllMemeingEye I reresolved it to YES, because that seems right to me. The market won the award, but IIUC Michael received the trophy for his market winning an award (he wasn't an option here so can't confirm), which I interpret to mean anonymous should count as an award winner. But if Ian intended that award to go to the market, not the person, he can reresolve!

@TheAllMemeingEye thanks for pointing it out and thanks to @Ziddletwix for fixing it!

It is very disappointing for me to see such results and maybe hurting a little bit in my heart and the sack. It is a deep cut and it will take me time to recover and understand, why? Is there the bandaid big enough for it? I will have to shopping it.

Hey @ian can you confirm the date and time that the awards ceremony is happening? When I checked the schedule a few days ago the closest thing was overall manifest closing ceremony but now seemingly the schedule is locked behind needing some kind of app and account. Even though I'm not attending in person, and now the banner image category is gone it seems unlikely I'll win anything, I still wanted to watch it live via video call facilitated by @crowlsyong and therefore would need to know what time to call (possibly in the early hours of the morning here in UK lol)

@TheAllMemeingEye 730pm tomorrow night!

@ian thanks 🙏 I'll make sure to be online at 03:30 am BST then haha

bought Ṁ140 YES

No need for the low voting here, it can hurt feelings with man like me? Maybe we can think about how we are predicting here for the mindfulness and rationalist thinking! We can move forward today after all of this.

A couple clarifying questions:

  • Roughly how many awards are intended to be handed out in total?

  • For users who aren't able to attend Manifest in person, assuming they still qualify, will there be a recording/broadcast of the event so they can see the announcement and slides?

@TheAllMemeingEye

  • I'm not sure how many awards yet! I think as many as there are compelling awardees, up to 15-20 maybe?

  • I'm not sure if everything will be broadcast yet, that's a question for @SirSalty

bought Ṁ10 YES

@ian thanks :)

@ian wow, thanks for even including me on this list, gonna hedge my bets by betting big on NO on it lol

@TheAllMemeingEye I noticed that I always see you engaging with markets, especially for new users. I checked the comment stats and you've made the most comments of all the users in the past month (the timeframe I checked)! Thanks for being welcoming and curious!

bought Ṁ10 NO

@ian woah holy shit I had no clue, guess I have a real problem haha, plz have that stat added to the leaderboards page

@TheAllMemeingEye Haha, I wouldn't want to incentivize endless one letter comments, though

Probably relevant to the market that some of the awards are probably going to be just decided by Ian/Manifold team or be objective on metrics, but others we might do community votes on

bought Ṁ10 NO

are non-attendees eligible for awards? Or is this intended to celebrate those at manifest?

bought Ṁ10 YES

@ian it was an either/or question haha

@TheAllMemeingEye what do you mean?

@ian was the "yes" as in "yes, non-attendees are eligible" or "yes, this is solely intended to celebrate those who are physically present at Manifest"?

@TheAllMemeingEye non-attendees are eligible for awards as well

bought Ṁ100 YES

@shankypanky are you coming to manifest?

bought Ṁ10 YES

@ian 72% or 85% chance depending on which market you're looking at 😂

@ian (I'll be there - and I'm the Emotional Support Animal again this year 🧡)
