At the time, both of them have "delivered" it will be (or become) clear, who has been the first to do so

How will it be clear? If they stay in seclusion for months I think jolie delivered and her publicist is covering it so they can avoid press. Publicist are known for that If you remember when Kate holms had her baby they said she was due 3 months later than she was and they had her in seclusion for months

Eventually they will release the actual birthdate of the twins, even if they do hide it for a little while. If Jessica has her baby before Angelina admits to having hers, we will just resettle the question. In the mean time Ryanb, feel free to pour more money into Angelina (so I can bet more on Jessica!!)

I know ryan raises many possiblities and what if's, but I see this as a clear cut question with clear outcome. When there is a "reported" case of childbirth market will be suspended until it is either confirmed or denied by multiple major mainstream news organizations, not one or two tabloid magazine sites. If confirmed, I will and probably other superusers/admins will check to see status of the other person. If confirmed other person is still pregnant then it settles.
Let this one play out, your worries and questions will all be for naught. It will be widely reported on these two when they deliver. And question will settle on multiple major news sources for verification, not one or two tabloid magazine sites that jumped the gun early on Angelina Jolie few days ago.
The Kate Holmes thing is totally different due to the Scientology issue with her giving birth. Not comparable to these two.

Here's some discussion of ET's story -- I think the fact that Brad was at a sporting event this weekend kind of puts a nail in the coffin on that theory...
