good question i didnt think of that initally i hope that they do get at least one. Is there a way to edit after the question is posted?

I've already edited it once when there was virtually no money in the market. I really don't want to mess with it anymore now that there are a significant number of wagers here. I think its unlikely that they will get no gold medals, but if that happens, we'll have to void the question.

@jenni..I really don't want to mess with it anymore now that there are a significant number of wagers here...what do you base "significant" on..the number of people? the amount wagered? both? just curious as to what your opinon is. have a nice day.

Hmm.. would be a shame to void the question
Let's hope the kiwis win a gold.. go kiwis as I prefer this market to settle as opposed to being voided!

Dear Amins -
Is it possible to change the first option to 0-3 as opposed to 1-3?

Yep...let's hope the kiwis win a gold to 'avoid' the 'void'

Even though there isn't a lot of money, or too many positions taken so far, it's just the point that there may be some who made the wager they did based on the question as it was....and it has been open several days now. In fact we're now getting into the fourth day of the games, and a major adjustment like that just isn't right...hate to see it voided, if it comes to that, but I think it's best just to let it ride.
