i clicked on the settlement link and placed a bet without realizing that the link was for all of the u.s. why are you not using the link for just alaska...seems it would be easier and less confusing

Wow, there is a link to less counting? that would be grand.
This market is GREAT!
Much Gratitude to you meanderingsearcher.
Very Educational clever creation.
Its exciting to come home from work today, sit down and count through that M1.0+ link.
As the numbers Rose, the intensity amplified.
Which brings to mind an interesting topic of discussion for us hubdubbers.
Is it morally ethically sound for markets of this type where one wagers on outcomes of greater death, destruction, carnage, disarry, and General Chaos?(tip o' the hat to "Butters" Leopold Stotch)
Does my wagering here influence or impact? Is it kosher for me to hope that 16 not 15 M2.0 Quakes
happen today in Alaska?
When my eyes fell on a RED number in the left column, I would eagerly hope to see letters AK
to the right.
Is there a special place in purgatory for folks like me?
Markets of this nature are being scrutinized, analyzed, detected, dissected and brought into question.
