My Predictions

Will L's Obama v. Wall-E mkt out generate HD$'s of V's O & C hands up Q?

Voided

Jenni is correct on this one. We don't allow questions referring to amount traded on other questions as they are too easy to game.

Background:

Both of these high flying markets should settle very soon. When they close/settle, which market will have generated the most wagered HD$'s?

Option # 1..Which movie will earn more "Wall-E vs. Wanted" opening weekend? @ $129,640 as I type this.

or

Option # 2 Will Clinton & Obama be seen in a classic, holding hands, lifted arms pose before July 1? @ $109,702 as I type this.


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source.

Let me get in front on this... Truly either/both Luci and/or I could individually or collaboratively conspire to game this market, but honestly I'm not looking to cash out my other 100+ predictions to try and sway the results of this one forecast and before you pile on my movie guru friend Lucidstates he had no idea I was going to throw this one out here, this is all on me. These markets are both generating a lot of traffic and I'm just curious as to whether my little market can catch Lucid's red hot one.

These types of markets haven't been allowed in the past. It is quite easy to effect the market volume by making and withdrawing lots of bets. You don't even need to have much money to make it happen... but.. just in case they let the question stand, you're betting on Lucid's Wanted vs WallE (not Obama vs WallE as stated in question) and Valornhonor's Obama and Clinton with hands clasped and held high markets.
