I challenge James to experience what it’s like to be an average user. He must…

  • Use the “poor” account at least as often as has used main account until now

  • Largely refrain from using main account to bet and make markets (managrams/bounties are fine)

  • Managram any mana excess of M2000 net worth to Manifold/elsewhere

  • Attempt to stay pseudonymous

Resolves according to what James reports.

@JamesGrugett To confirm, are each of these statements correct? For at least two weeks…

  • You used the “poor” account at least as often as you’ve used the main account prior to this.

  • You largely refrained from using main account to bet and make markets, except for managrams/bounties.

  • You managrammed any mana excess of M2000 net worth to Manifold/elsewhere.

  • You attempted to stay pseudonymous.

@oh Yes. I used the poor account as often as some of my slightly less active prior weeks, so within the normal range.

@JamesGrugett 👀

any updates on your economic status here?

@shankypanky I've done this. I traded a bit, created a market and even resolved it a few days later, all on my alt.

predicted YES

@JamesGrugett oh nice. so we can nudge @Oh to say you met the criteria and are back to living the good life? 💰

@oh come back 🧡 I miss you

@oh Ping.

You wanna live like common people?

James you can make a lot of mana by not doing it

@TheBayesian okay rude

predicted YES

James is such a man of the people he took this task upon himself without even being tagged and is now posting a full dissertation in Discord

@oh James says they made the account

there are further requirements in the description

@TheBayesian true - and the tagged user in the market title isn't @JamesGrugett? is it? 😬

@Joshua resolved yes before it even started imo

Actually, I think this is really useful. He should do it.
