Hope so

potential market: Will manifold prioritize responding to problems/lack of understanding/UI issues raised in the thread of any market which makes it to a high rank on HN this week? =)

post this monthly and itll happen eventually

opened a á¹€500 YES at 1.0% order

fill me brothers and sisters

By EOD 4/2 PT

I assume this is meant to say 3/2 (March 2nd), in accordance with the close time?

@jcb good catch

This feels like an incentive market and I don’t love this approach by the team.

bought á¹€50 YES

@Sketchy it's ok to have fun on the internet

bought á¹€10 YES

@Sketchy Yeah, it's kind of a market with an incentive to go submit more links to other websites. Which was against the rules. Maybe if it ran every week for awhile.
I'm also betting yes, because 1 person can cause this to happen, and then it usually does.

I just think it encourages behavior that's going to reflect badly on Manifold and burn some good will. People on HackerNews are sensitive to attempts to game the ranking.
