punkman: the "*me" bet in the screenshot is a hypothetical bet
BingoBoingo: Lead to http://gawker.com/teen-loses-finger-during-rave-keeps-going-because-bas-1592911313
BingoBoingo: That's kinda the whole point of these tools
TheNewDeal: it doesn't analyze only the current list of bets to date?
TheNewDeal: here's a potential suggestion to ponder, we can talk about it more if I get back at you. Placing future bets to see how the pot changes
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: I used the original
BingoBoingo: punkman: Maybe give it a new name then...
punkman: BingoBoingo: nothing to do with that old bitbets.py

asciilifeform: sabu sentenced to keylogger << 2015: public urinator sentenced to toiletcam
BingoBoingo: "get away with" at the cost of setting a horrible precedent
TheNewDeal: neglecting the 1% fee...
TheNewDeal: if you originally bet 1 btc, you could "get away with" selling .5 btc at double the timeweight
TheNewDeal: depending on the amount being purchased though
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: Sure I offered a discount, and I tried offering you the same as well. A discount and a synthetic weight though are very different animals.
TheNewDeal: which is essentially the same thing
TheNewDeal: well you did offer the buyer (mike_c was it?) a discount on the price
BingoBoingo: Even though the circumstances in which the actual underlying couldn't cover the synthetic would have been exceedingly unlikely... Trading on an artificial weight would have set a bad precedent.
BingoBoingo: Well, there's also the problem whereing I lack the experience and reputation to feel comfortable selling a synthetic bet.
TheNewDeal: I think it's rather trivial to price them, but finding something that would make sense financially between the two of us was the difficult task
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: Well, it was a simple disagreement in pricing. Particularly how to price these things. We both disagree on how to do it.
TheNewDeal: bingoboingo, that we weren't able to strike a deal on the difficulty had little to do with wording. More to do with you placing your bet later than I trying to sell my Yes bets
