READ THIS: If you are reading this and betting, please bet an amount that is not M$10 (at least once), or post a comment. This is so I can tell you opened this page.

This is intended as an experiment in how many people are quick-betting from the homepage based on the title alone without looking at the market details. This is intended as a direct comparison with https://manifold.markets/DrP/will-donald-j-trump-be-the-presiden-0e059855d7f0 and https://manifold.markets/DrP/will-donald-j-trump-be-the-presiden - the latter has some discussion in the comments about people who may not have realized the nature of the market because they used the quick-bet from the home page.

This can also be an issue with markets where the title asks a substantially different question than the resolution criteria in the market description.

I will resolve the market accurately as per the title. Feel free to bet however you want, e.g. you can buy YES to subsidize the experiment or just for fun.

@jack I bet you won’t make one for September 26th and go in heavy.

predictedYES

Damn. Off by 5 days.

Oops, I just did a bunch of M$10 bets, sry

predictedNO

@GeorgeVii Think it was 9 M$10 bets

predictedNO

@GeorgeVii Thanks for the note, not a problem, you made several non-M$10 bets so I can tell you did open the page at some point.

predictedNO

Aw, looks like Manifold is checking balances when they start to execute a limit now. That's a shame, the pampus were giving me lots of free mana

predictedNO

Still, I did get to -M$580

predictedNO

@LivInTheLookingGlass I believe the way it works is a full single limit order can be executed at once up to an arbitrary negative balance, but after that all other limit orders are canceled.

predictedNO

I think that is relatively new behavior. I got my balance to -5k at some point

predictedYES

Pampu.

Pampu.

predictedNO

I would like to partially exit my position (to use capital elsewhere), if anyone wants to place limit orders at 4% I will fill a few thousand.

predictedNO

@DrP Lol. Yeah should have specified direction tbf.
Anyhow, I don't need quite as much anymore, due to aonther market settling ;)

predictedNO

@GeorgeVii Huh, if you had tried to exit a week ago there were tons of NO limit orders for 10k+ mana going down to 5%, now they are mostly gone. Does that mean a pampu is imminent?

Haha it happened as I was typing.

predictedNO

@jack well, I put some limits in. Think that'll hold for now?

Did NOT read, until after I quick bet.
